R. Ost

R. Ost (ダチョウ同好会 Dachō Dōkō-kai, Ostrich Club) is an enemy that appears in Legend Stages and Catclaw Dojo.

Enemy

R. Ost is among the most well-equipped pushers in the game. He has fast movement speed, high health, enough range to hide behind most peons, and a rapid Area Attack that will shred your cats. As the icing on the cake he can do Critical Hits, which is usually the difference between whether or not he one-shots Eraser Cat, and does not have a trait making it hard to inflict status effects. He has five knockbacks, so be sure to bring lots and lots of strong ranged attackers, and lots of meatshields, as that's pretty much all you can do to stop him.

Overall, this enemy is easy to counter on his own but can be a real pain when spawned in groups or with enemies that take advantage of his many knockbacks.

Strategies

Crazed Bahamut Cat, (Crazed) Dragon Cat and Paris Cat will do fine against R. Ost in earlier stages.

Awakened Bahamut Cat can be used to chip off much of an R. Ost near the Cat Base, then let him be finished with the rest of your attackers. For this to work, Bahamut must be spawned while R. Ost is frozen or during R. Ost's backswing, and there can't be any other enemies in front of R. Ost.

Any unit exclusive to the Epicfest event will do very well against this avian atrocity. The Weaken effect helps a lot too, so don't be afraid to save an extra slot for Thaumaturge Cat.
