Strategy

Primordial Cat serves as a durable meatshield against Metal and Relic enemies. Less effective on stages that mix them with other enemies as well as M. Ost due to his knockback and slow abilities.

Especially useful against Relic Bun-Bun, which takes 5 hits to dispatch a level 40 Modern Cat.

True Form

Future Cat is even tougher against her targeted traits and has a faster attack rate. The changes to her attack cycle are negligible as Future Cat is a meatshield and has very bad attack power. The improved resistance is what you get this True Form for, improving her health by a whopping 50% vs. Metal and Relic enemies.
