I’m just gonna jump right into this because I don’t have a good introduction to this and I don’t have footage of the _entire_ fight (re-fighting all the bosses). I will, however, flex that I was one of the first ten thousand or so to beat him because over the summer, I was stalking the wiki :p * * * # Recommended Before you start, you should have these ready. ## Wizard - You should be at a fairly high level (above level 80, although a guy without a skill issue\[1\] has beaten the Puppet Master at around level 80). - Thanks to the mass-readding of removed gear, you should have a set with a high health and defense bonus (e.g. the Celestial set with over 850 health at level 100 the last time I checked).\[2\] - A wand with a healing spell (e.g. the Ice Cream Stack, which also has a very high power bonus), high-damaging spell (e.g. the Titan Power Katana, which is one of if not _the_ most powerful wand in the game), or spell with an elemental advantage (e.g. the Dual Blade, which also has a high power bonus) will be _extremely_ helpful. - Take advantage of all your bonuses from mounts and buddies. Buddies now give extra bonuses on top of everything else, which is very useful. If you were at level 125 with just the Celestial set on, you’d have 980 health. Meanwhile, with a Sparkle Puppy from the Treasure Track and a Flower Bush Mount from attending Springfest, you can up that number to 1,050. ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/prodigygame/original/1X/c352f7a96997c3b853a5bdf84252760abb8c9ea6.jpeg) ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/prodigygame/original/1X/50f8e16d41826d6c3755200d148cfc6ddf555c7f.jpeg) ## Pets - Now that pet gear has been added, try to get really good pet gear on the pets you’re going to use. A power or health bonus will be especially helpful, as well as a defense bonus. - **Do not** choose a glass cannon pet\* (high damage in exchange for low health) or any pets that do not have a good, high-damaging spell. - Just like your wizard, make sure your pets are at around the same level as you. I know that you probably know this, but just to reiterate it: higher level = higher stats. \*Of course, if you can use a glass cannon pet well, then you can try. However, you’ll need to heal it constantly. * * * # Strategies You can’t just spam your high-damaging spells in the beginning. So, how _do_ you beat the Puppet Master? Before you read, note that these are essential: - When the Puppet Master steals your pet, unlike 99% of stolen things, he will give it back. So, even though the pet will attack you, **don’t attack it back**. - These strategies are written for a tank and a balanced pet (more specifically, Shivertusk and Magnome respectively). ## All-Out Beginning This is pretty much what it says: go all-out at the beginning. Notes: - If possible, whenever you or your pet(s) are low on health, use a healing spell. - Keep trying to do extremely high damage **before the Puppet Master recovers 1,000 health**. - Once the Puppet Master recovers 1,000 health, keep going all-out on him. - Speaking of all-out, you should also use All-Out Attack, but it won’t really one-shot him. * * * Do you have any more strategies to suggest? Suggest them in the replies and I’ll add it. * * * 1. Unfortunately, that person can’t use the Puppet Master set because it’s level-locked at level 90. 2. All of my personal experience, which is what I’m using to write this, came from July 2023. Tons of things have changed since then. For example, while I would use the Celestial set to beat it _now_, back then, I had to use the Draconyx set and a wand that no longer has a healing spell. ---

titan power katana is REALLY good, has a physical spell though, but it has a 355 power bonus. if you can’t get that, then use the dual blade which is like ~2,000 gold and has an astral spell ---

> [@gnihtemos](#): > > has a physical spell though are physical spells bad? imean,I know shadow is resistant to it, but 355 power looks like it can make up for it. (where do I buy these two wands.) ---

My dragon Isle physical wand has 365 \[1\] power, and it will obliterate shadow type even with resistance… You buy the Power Katana at the titan shop, and the Dual Blade at the wand shop in lamplight town. * * * 1. Might be 360 ---

No, you should put the celestial wand if you’re a high enough level, because it has the most powerful astral spell… But if you **don’t** have enough coins or levels to get it, then yes, a good healing wand will work. 👍🏻 [Next page](https://prodigy-game.discourse.group/t/beating-the-puppet-master-wip/68.md?page=2)
