Baneglow Cheevo Strats
*All pets used are level 25 and rare quality*
Where applicable, breed is listed. You may have success with other breeds, but I cannot guarantee it, as I have only tested with these breeds.
Pets are listed in their position order (so pet #1 goes first).
Tip: when looking for a pet with a listed ability for the strategies below, type the ability into your pet search bar, and pets with that ability will be filtered for you.
- [npc=113440] (2,2,2)

Spoiler
Use the below rotation (bringing in the next pet and continuing the rotation where you left off) until Baneglow dies:
- [pet-ability=178]
- [pet-ability=179]
- [pet-ability=113] x3
- [npc=64248] or [npc=61459] (2,1,2) - any breed

- [pet-ability=118] until 2nd pet dies
- Bring in 3rd pet
- [pet-ability=297] x2
- [pet-ability=118] until Baneglow dies
*There is a chance that with multiple crits (especially on the 3rd pet) you might die just barely before Baneglow does - chalk it up to bad RNG and try again. However, to avoid this, the stronger your first pet, the better off you'll be - [npc=55386] is highly recommended as your 1st pet if you have it.
- [npc=64899] (1,2,2)

- Prioritize [pet-ability=779] > [pet-ability=115] until 1st pet dies
- Bring in 2nd pet
- Use any available filler spells on your 2nd pet until Baneglow has 500 health or less
