Re: Penny's Pursuit

Have they nerfed the plants in PP? I was playing I think #8 last night with the Citrons and the LB and I couldn't kill anything! Even a Citron with plant food wouldn't take out one of those nibbler machines. Big Pig has good Modern Day plamts. This should have been a cakewalk.  

@linuxPigPen 

I've been using peanut, 2x power lily, reinforcemint and blover.

This works well on max difficulty, I think the zombies are tougher.

Probably a boring strat, but I kept using Bass Blast perk + Blover or Reinforcemint + Blover in almost every level without locked plants/belt.

I also used Imp Pear's PFE and took advantage of the power tiles (also brought Power Lily just in case) to significantly reduce the zombies' health so that my Pokra can easily defeat them.

Imp Pear is also useful in the don't spend suns level, and can kill a zombie by putting two IPs in front of them, especially in the beginning while preparing your defense.

In the case of locked plants or conveyor belts, duh, I just played Endless first to collect power ups, lol. Thankfully my plants levels are high enough to be able to beat locked plants/belt level without having to use power ups. That, except level 17 aka the legendary Magnifying Grass level, where I just spammed power toss.

@HenryThePear 

Dang, that's one buff Imp. I regretted that I actually care about preparing the (boosted) twin suns and the sunflos to hoard some suns. I ended up being too busy spam-tapping MG to kill one cone zombie, while the suns are spreading uncollected. Felt too hard even for 3 chillies. I lost count how many times I had to tap the MG to kill one bucket zombie (if I managed to kill him at all, before resorting to power toss).

The devs seem to have gone too far this time. It looks like the devs are still experimenting (if not confused about) Penny's difficulty.

After the discussion about level 17, I decided to give it a try with level 1 plants 😛 https://streamable.com/hyr840 

@PowerToss 

Haha, that's so cool.

I might've been allergic to MG first that I'd rather not stay too long in that level 🤣

Stand corrected, I guess I'm giving kudos to the devs this time, heh.

I will bear this level in mind and then curse my way through it..... :/

Thank you Penny.

9 gems dropped! 

I thought I counted it wrong until I double checked the amount of gem increased.

Don't ask me how I did it because I do not have the faintest idea how this happened, all I remember is this was played on the spicy (medium difficulty) zomboss level.

@eieio_31310 

I'm still going to ask you how just because 😅

Or at least, what plants did you use (are they high level/mid/low level plants)?

How many gems do you usually get with the same plants and in the same level difficulty?

Maybe we can analyse from there somehow, haha.

I'm getting 4-5 gems on Spicy 3 with PowerToss strategy (SV, BB, Reinforce-mint, Blover and CG and I use the PF perk)

First time that I maxxed out Penny Perks

Apparantly the Extra Objectives dissappear from the levels

What has @eieio_31310 in it's pocketses, we want our Precious (gems) ...

@ForestOutlook    I select the plant food perk so there is constant supplies of PF to shower Zomboss with peas.

Over-achievements?  👿

Do you mean 113/112 👿..

Yes and 105% ZPS. 

And not to forget 1280 out of 15 fuel.....

Now I think EA owes me a prize.....👿

EDIT mistype

@eieio_31310  👿 👿

@Perfume-shroom92   You have beaten me with the fuel....  😁

There are 10,15 and 20 Dazey Chain seed pinatas for killing Zomboss in the new penny's pursuit.

EDIT; The you know what is still working.

I have just entered the new Penny's Pursuit and the game completion bug is active once more.  😡 

Level 4 on hard looks like the best way to get 30% zps and two penny's perks.
