I’m attempting the DC right now and round 3 is indeed ludicrous. Room 1 and 2 require at least 3 birds each to kill, and that’s if you don’t get lucky and have one of the structures topple over and take out another one.
Those micro pigs sat on their own platforms out of the way are just there to take an extra bird; the ones on room 1 can be taken out with Blues if you split them up at the right time, and the ones on room 2 pretty much need to be taken out by pushing the tall structure over onto them or you’re going to have to use a bird just to take them out separately. I play on a tablet so with room 2 I can zoom out further, could be why.
Also if you ever get to room 5, don’t bother trying to hit that furthest structure with a direct shot; it won’t reach. I had decent run up until this room, entering with 5 (using 2 of them to take out other crap) and then wasted Terrence trying this. So instead you’re forced to use the blue portals which means your birds exiting the right one at an awkward downwards angle. Plus there are several structures you have to deal with so again be ready to get crippled just before the boss room.
Rather difficult boss level today in a 4-5-6 DC. Made it to room 6 with 1 bird left. Rooms 3, 4, 5 were full of structures and floating pigs, but I got lucky and cleared them. Bought 3 birds because I wasn’t going through it all again.
KPP was easy once you clear the 1st level. Fairly indestructible boss; closed exit.
Not a bad DC today. 4-5-6, but you need 3 birds minimum to finish, unless you get lucky with flying debris.
Didn’t notice this yesterday, but there is a counter on the right. Each time you finish the DC, you get a progressively better prize. It may be a streak counter, so not finishing could reset the counter:
That counter was definitely added after the update. There’s mention of it on the AB2 app page under “what’s new”:
– NEW! Daily Challenge Streak – win consecutive daily challenges without any failures to earn extra rewards!
Given the way it reads, I’m assuming it’s just like the arena streak which breaks when you lose, as “without any failures” implies that the streak will break if you fail one DC or quit to try again. That would pretty much demand that you beat every DC on your first go without messing up/quitting to retry, which would be insane.
As for today’s DC, mine was a 4-4-5 for some reason, with this boss room that I haven’t seen for a long time. I 2-shot it on my first attempt:
The KPP was easy, although honestly I should’ve just restarted on the 3rd boss and lost out on the free rare chest from room 1, rather than paying twice for extra birds just to beat it.
My run was average and I know I could’ve done better with a little more serious effort; the 3rd boss wasn’t that difficult and I just needed better birds and maybe an additional 1-2. It’s not that bad as I do have a sizeable amount of gems so I didn’t lose that much, plus it’s rare that I buy extra birds twice at a time.
I had another 4-4-5 DC with this boss room:
I only had to retry twice, and each attempt was a slightly better for round 3, resulting in me having more birds for the boss.
KPP was a usual 3-4-5, which started with this nightmare boss:
This was the only boss I had trouble with, there’s no clear strategy other than to knock the boss down from his starting platform and hope he either takes consistent damage from being blown around the room, or he gets launched out of the top right opening.
Either way this room drained all my lives + 2 extra life videos before I beat it by having him fly out the opening. Thankfully it was the first boss so I could get it out of the way early. The rest of the KPP was easy and I didn’t spent any gems today which will help my recover from yesterday’s expensive run.
Also my DC streak was lost on my first retry, so that basically means it’s going to be virtually impossible to maintain it since you have to beat DCs in one clean run.
My 4-4-5 DC ending with this room:
I got a free rare chest on the first room which was enough for me to buy more birds to finish the boss off as I didn’t feel like trying again. I pretty much got the gems back through the daily quests so not really a loss.
3-4-5 KPP which started off nice and simple with this boss:
And then the 2nd boss I get this nonsense:
Even with perfecting the prior rooms and entering with 6+ birds it’s impossible. Thanks game, great design.
