Dealing with pygmy superpigs in Angry Birds Epic?
I have localized version of Angry Birds Epic, so sorry if my names for things don't match, loosely translating.
Game says pretty explicitly about finding specific combinations of birds for fights. I got basics worked out more or less (almost always need healer, sometimes heavy hitters work better, don't waste effects on immune enemies, etc), but having a lot of trouble with combination for damn super overpowered pygmy pigs (they are clearly pinnacle of pig evolution I've seen so far).
As a whole this pig tribe has got following abilities:
- sturdy (easily multiple 500+ HP on screen)
- hard hitting (bunch of them deal damage very fast and boost with pepper)
- get reinforcements (summoners who get in more summoners? yikes)
- larger pigs come in single-target and multi-target versions
- got healers that are just ridiculous (restore 150+HP every turn for 3 turns, wat?)
I am level 9, coming to "cliffs" area (left of map after sea, then going up), with most recipes from stores bought/crafted and all bird classes so far bought (except one for black bird that just opened up).
What had I tried:
- white healer bird is simply a must, using with druid class since first one seemed less efficient at healing
- red bird with samurai defense makes survival easier, but locks it on defense completely, without making any considerable damage
- yellow bird with area poision/heal seems useful against crowds, but it simply doesn't have HP to take a larger pig hit
- black bird seems a little inflexible since it does little, but hit hard
- blue bird with poison/retarget is a monster... however the only reliable dispel is another class of it :(
Trying to focus on defense leaves me without sufficient damage dealing. Trying to hit hard isn't fast enough to prevent me from getting wiped out.
Birds must prevail! How?
Best Answer
I've been using the counter attack combination for pygmy pigs. This works great against any pig that does multiple attacks.
Red - knight. Shields himself and attacks occasionally.
Yellow - mage. Shock shield is awesome.
Blue - rogue. Force the enemies to all attack red and to spread dots around
Against the big pig boss I swap out yellow for druid Matilda and rely on dots and chili peppers on red to take it down.
The goal is to always focus damage on red while he has the shield on and reflect damage back to the pigs.
If you are willing to use items to heal you won't need Matilda
