This post summarizes some of the information originally under the Mastery thread.
There are three very good strategies when battling a single opponent that revolve around giving a chilli to chuck. Since Chuck will perform 2 out of the 5 attacks, his Wizard class is the most obvious choice as this is Chuck’s class that causes the most damage.
For the first strategy, you need Wizard, Marksmen and Samurai (or Cannoneer).
Firstly, fire Marksmen at the target to put his volley attack onto the target.
Then give the chilli to Wizard.
Then attack with Samurai
Each attack will attract the bonus associated with Marksmen’s volley attack. Hence this works best when you use a bird with multiple attacks, such as Samurai and Cannoneer. This strategy can cause >8,000 points damage in one round (Exp level 41, Mastery levels 6-8).
For the second strategy you need Marksman, Wizard and Sea Dog.
Attach Sea Dog to Marksmen
Fire Marksmen at the target
Give the chilli to the Wizard
In the end, Sea Dog gets 4 attacks (2 attached to Marksmen, 2 by himself) (all with the bonus damage from Marksmen’s volley attack)
Marksmen get 2 attacks (1 with the bonus damage)
Wizard gets 2 attacks (both with the bonus damage)
The third strategy is a variation of the second strategy where you use Skulkers in place of Marksmen (you have Skulker’s weakspot in place of Marksmen’s volley). The other birds are Wizard and Sea Dog and you follow the same procedure as for strategy 2. Each attack achieves a 30% damage bonus as a result of weakspot.
