Strategy/Usage

Swordsman Cat acts as a stronger, more aggressive Axe Cat, capable of slicing any Red enemy in two. Although this cat has mediocre attack power, he is cheap and easily stackable, and a group of them can shred Red enemies.

Unlike Dark Cat and Island Cat, Swordsman Cat can outrange Shy Boy, so with good meatshielding, a stack of them will be able to shred them apart with little trouble.

This cat is exceptional in stages that are predominantly Red enemies, such as NASA, Greenland, Attack on R-Cyclone (Expert), Red Alert and Easter Island.

True Form

Elemental Duelist Cat is surprisingly powerful against Red enemies, even when compared to the likes of Island Cat, doing a massive 13,600 damage per hit with every Blood Fruit Treasure at level 30. He is a huge help against common yet dangerous short-ranged Red enemies, like Bore and Shy Boy, being able to annihilate them with the help of Island Cat and Crazed Whale in a matter of seconds, no matter how buffed they are. He also gains a decent amount of bulk, which allows him to survive some powerful attacks.

Talents

The Target Angel Talent isn't that useful since Elemental Duelist Cat can only outrange Gabriel and Divine Cyclone, but it can still come in handy against Sunfish Jones and frozen Boraphims to deliver ridiculous amounts of damage. Other talents are nice to have, but rarely make much difference.

Trivia

• Elemental Duelist Cat bears a striking resemblance to a Xenoblade character who also has a similar monocle-like attachment.
  • He could also be based off Lloyd Irving from the "certain game" Tales of Symphonia. Both have a similar hairstyle and Elemental Duelist Cat has Lloyd's signature dual swords, one blue (in his right hand) and one red (in his left).
