Boogie Up: Hard is the first stage in Boogie Awakens! Stages.
Battleground
Gato Amigo is constantly spawned as peons, and an extremely magnified Dark Emperor Nyandam appears as the boss.
Strategy
- If you have all Superior Treasures from all chapters, then you won't need any true forms or Uber Rares.
- You will need: Macho Cat, Wall Cat, Samba Cat, an optional cheap meatshield, Paris Cat, Bahamut Cat, and Captain Cat. You will probably spend 25-35 minutes on this level.
- Start the level by upgrading your Cat Wallet to Level 2, then begin spawning meatshields and whenever possible, place a Paris Cat and ocassionally a Pirate Cat. Don't spawn anything else besides these units and continue leveling up your Cat Wallet, make slow progress towards the enemies' base. Stop spawning Paris Cats occasionally in order to save up more money. Before you reach their base spawn a Bahamut Cat. Bahamut's goal is to wipe out the large amounts of Gato Amigos that are being spawned when the boss appears. When the boss appears, spam everything. The Cat Cannon will help you a lot. Continue spamming for as long as it takes. If the boss is about to attack, it is a great time to fire your Cat Cannon and to not spawn any Paris Cats
Goals for each unit used:
- Meatshields- protect important units.
- Paris Cat- to deal good damage, the ideal attacker against the Gato Amigos and against the boss.
- Pirate Cat- knock back the Red troops meaning it is extremely useful against the boss, since it keeps delaying his attack and dealing more damage to him.
- Bahamut Cat- kill peons (Gato Amigos) so that Paris Cat can attack the boss.
If you don't have Paris Cat, Sexy Legs Cat can be a replacement (but Paris is better).
You can complete the level with all EoC treasures, but is much harder and takes a lot longer. Use the previous strat but have a 4th meatshield. Crazed Macho is recommended. Side Note: If you could beat this level, you're able to beat the Crazed Cat stage!
If you have Hacker Cat, then it might make this level easier for you (but it will take considerably about 25-30 minutes, and also need at least 200% EoC treasures). You need 4 meatshields (preferably a Crazed Macho), Hacker Cat, and some heavy hitters that meet the qualifying criteria: Area Damage, Longer range than the Gato Amigos, and can hurt the Amigos a considerably good amount. Some examples are True Valkyrie Cat, Bahamut Cat, or Paris, which can do great damage (except the Paris, but can do good damage when stacked.)
Recommendations: Speed Up, as it takes about 20-30 minutes without it. Do not bring the Cat CPU as if you have lots of money, it will spawn Paris whenever it can, draining your money that is supposed to be used for the meatshielding.
You will want to lure in the Gato Amigos at the start 2/3rd of the way, then start spamming your meatshields. Spawn a Paris every now and then, and when you get enough money, spawn True Valkyrie. She will typically take 2-4 hits to kill the Amigos, depending on your 200%+ treasure. Keep in mind: Your heavy hitters are meant ONLY to clear the Amigos so the Hacker Cats can reach and hit Nyandam (Sometimes, the rockets Hacker Cat send out don't seem like they're hitting Nyandam.) Once Nyandam comes out, meatshield well so Hacker Cat won't get hit. A stack of Amigos can normally tear down 3 meatshields, as opposed to 4 meatshields...
Anyways, start spamming your Hacker Cats as you are meatshielding. Send out the heavy hitters if they are either inside the Hacker Cat Stack's Range, or if you want them to get a little bit closer to Nyandam. If Nyandam is about to attack, and you have a heavy hitter near the attack, time your Cat Cannon well if you decide that you want your Heavy Hitters to live a little longer. Typically, if you are able to stack 6-8 Hackers, that's when Nyandam starts taking considerable damage.
If Nyandam does not get knocked back within the 20 minute mark, then you might not have had enough treasures, leaving much longer time for the rest of the game.
