Defeat the Cross Strich

Never a weapon on the Cross Strich

The three-step strategy against the Cross Strich

Supports first. Start with the Patrich, who heals its allies and removes your range, then the Watchamatrich, who weakens you, reduces your healing and erodes you. Never let a Stretch reach an isolated character.

The Cross Strich at range. All its damage spells are cast at 3 Range or less: stay out of its reach and hit it from a distance, in Neutral preferably. Remove its MP to offset Gastrich Trouble.

Spells, not weapons. Until it dies, never touch it with a weapon: two turns of invulnerability are enough to tip the fight. Check its state before every hit.

The monsters of the Cross Strich's Aviary

Five level 110 to 114 Striches, with a little over 2,000 HP, with weaknesses spread across all elements. Erosion, removals and reduced healing: don't let a fight drag on. The resistances in red are their weaknesses.

In which order to kill the monsters

  1. Patrich — it heals its allies up to 12 Range and removes 4 range from you.
  2. Watchamatrich — it makes you Weakened, halves your healing received, erodes you and removes MP at 10 Range.
  3. Stretch — it leaps 3 cells and Stretch Foot can kill its target in melee.

Preparing your run through the Cross Strich's Aviary

A level 120 to 130 dungeon, rated very hard because of erosion and removals. People come for the Dotrich Dofus, the achievements and the Cross Strich's soul, useful for the Ochre Dofus and Frankenstritch, with a Soul Stone for Big Souls (captures up to level 150).

How to enter the Cross Strich's Aviary

The entrance is at Cania Cirque, in the Cania Plains, at ; the nearest zaap is the one at Cania Lake . Talk to Ornithlo Gyst to enter, and again to leave. Three ways to open it: a Cross Strich's Aviary Key (consumed), the key ring if it is registered there, or automatic group search.

Crafting the Cross Strich's Aviary Key

It is crafted at a handyman's. Five ingredients drop from the Striches, at nearly 30%: Watchamatrich Rump, Trubout Feather, Patrich Eye, Stricheetru Fluff and Marbled Meat. Blue Ray, Pandkin Seed and Malt complete the recipe.

Which team to bring against the Cross Strich

Several elements. Each Strich has its weaknesses: Fire and Water for the Stretch, Fire and Air for the Trubout, Earth for the Watchamatrich and the Patrich, Air for the Stricheetru. A single-element team loses a lot of efficiency, and Neutral is ideal against the boss.

Spells to finish the boss. Characters who depend on their weapon must keep damage spells for the Cross Strich: a single weapon attack makes it invulnerable for 2 turns.

The five achievements of the Cross Strich's Aviary

Each achievement gives 9,508,000 XP and 2 Pair of Cross Strich Balls, the Duo doubles the XP. Barbaric and Strich and Slide both run into the weapon trap: read them before you start.

Special: Strich and Slide

Enemies must be moved before taking damage; a moved enemy stays that way until the start of its next turn. No particular difficulty: move each target before hitting it. Be careful not to damage the Cross Strich with a weapon, or it becomes invulnerable for 2 turns.

Barbaric

Enemies must be finished off with a weapon. Wear the monsters down with your spells and finish them with a weapon. For the Cross Strich, the weapon hit must be the fatal blow: if it doesn't kill it, it becomes invulnerable for 2 turns.

Drops and loot of the Cross Strich's Aviary

Base game rate, before prospecting bonus. The Buddy Dubble map fragments drop from four of the Striches: each has its number, and all four can give the 5/5.
