Strategy/Usage
Normal Form
This form is useless by design. Similarly to the other cats from Tales of the Nekoluga, this cat is not meant to be used until it evolves.
Evolved Form
Although the Curse ability might seem exciting, it only works against enemies with abilities (Relic Enemies' own Curse Ability for example) so be sure to use him accordingly. Even then, his Curse ability is not ideal for almost all stages in the game, and since it doesn't have 100% uptime, it cannot function properly. The downtime between attacks will give enemies a chance to counter-attack, and usually, that ends with Papaluga being a waste of money, unless he has great support.
Even without his ability, this cat still has decent damage. Paired with multi-hit and long range he is a good attacker, but may lose DPS due to the questionable spacing in his multi-hits (as with most multi-hit units). Even then, Papaluga has horrid survivability, with low health and a mere one knockback. Thus; using Papaluga as a generalist is generally discouraged.
As mentioned before, this cat should be used wisely, as many supporter enemies like Henry or Croakley outrange him. Fortunately, Starred Alien Enemies and Relic Enemies will be Papaluga's time in the spotlight, as they appear in the harder levels of the game.
Due to his high range, this cat can be used as a ranger like Ururun Wolf, he is also a good stand-in for other rangers who outranges THE SLOTH and Master A.
