Strategy[]
The peons in this stage are scarce, so bringing a unit with Double Bounty is extremely helpful for victory. DO NOT use units that can knock Cumulus Gallus into THE FOLIVOREAN such as Glass Cat or Lone Cat and Kitten.
Recommended Units[]
The units below are either required are extremely help to beat the stage. A Shield Piercer such as Evil Aku Researcher can help break THE FOLIVOREAN's shield, however it is unnecessary.
- Can Can Cat: Required to have high level and the Double Bounty Talents, minimum level 40. Can Can will be the main driving force of the entire stage. Can Can will be making the money, killing the peons, and slowly whittling down the health of Cumulus Gallus and THE FOLIVOREAN. Can Can at this level should be able to tank a good amount of hits from both the bosses, having Damage talents for Can Can makes this an even easier stage. She can turn the disadvantage of the lack of peons here nonexistent. Can Can will be your best cat here.
- Manic Eraser Cat: Basically the only meatshield you will need in this stage. A Manic Eraser that's level 40+ can solo, however, a secondary meatshield such as Eraser Cat should be used if one has a low leveled Manic Eraser. Manic Eraser will be able to tank hits from the Condemned Pengs, Aku Doges, and Wild Doges and the Cumulus Gallus.
- Slime Cat: All three forms work here. Slime will be your second-best unit in this stage, with it basically one shotting all the peons when level 40. Even if its lower than level 40, it can still deal devastating damage to all the enemies in this stage at once. And with all the enemies in this stage having low attack speeds and/or low standing range, Slime Cat will get a hit in almost every time. Just make sure to time it to where your Slime doesnt get hit by THE FOLIVOREAN's attack.
- Bullet Train Cat: Purely unnecessary to bring if one possesses a high leveled Can Can Cat. Its just a worse substitute for Can Can. You'll need something else to break barriers and deal damage to really gain some value out of Bullet Train.
- Evil Aku Researcher: While all forms could work, you should just use the 2nd and 3rd one. Aku Researcher isnt necessary if one owns Can Can, as she alone can pretty much break all the barriers in this stage. But, it doesnt hurt to bring him just in case your Can Cans keep dying.
- Fiend Cat: Also sees very little use. However Fiend is good if the bosses are pushing too far, as her long range can hit past the Behemoth Chick and hit THE FOLIVOREAN, knocking it back.
- Courier Cat: With Behemoth Slayer and his high attack damage, he makes this stage even easier.
- Awakened Bahamut Cat: As always, Awakened Bahamut decimates this stage, as he does many others. A.Bahamut will die, but it doesn't even matter as by then he will have done a massive chunk of damage to the bosses and deal with the annoying Condemned Pengs. With the Explosion Talent, it makes this stage even easier.
Recommended Ubers[]
- Iz the Lady of Mourning: She has massive damage against Traitless, 100% chance to break barriers, quick attack speed, and a three-part multi hit. She is perfect for this stage.
- Pretty much any other UBERFEST / EPICFEST Uber.
- Lucifer the Fallen: A good long range anti-aku uber that can pretty much neutralize THE FOLIVOREAN without dying.
- Summoner Satoru: The slow and knockback could potentially be useful, but really isnt needed.
Strategy 1[]
Honestly, no strategy is really needed. Just summon meatshields when needed and spam Can Can, Slime Cat, and A.Bahamut and victory should be guaranteed if your timing is correct.
