Recommended Weapons

Freezing weapon – Snowglobe Staff, as it is cheap and effective fairly oftenly)
Sticky Hand – Purple recommended as is cheapest)
Healing item – Greater Healing Scroll is a good choice
4 x Fire/Shooting Star Muffins – For damage
Multiple Use Weapon – Scarab Ring is a cheap option

Strategy

Turn One: Use Purple Sticky hand and Snowglobe Staff and use earth faerie ability ‘Burrow’.

Hand must steal Thyora’s Tear and snowglobe staff freeze before moving onto step two. If not withdraw, heal and try again.

Turn Two: Use 2 x Fire/Shooting Star Muffins and Fierce Attack/Beserk

Turn Three: Use Thyora’s Tear, 1 x Fire Muffin and Fierce attack/Beserk

Turn Four: If the Black Pteri isn’t dead by now, use:
1x Fire Muffin, Your Multiple Use weapon and Dark Faerie Ability ‘sink’, or ‘Defend’.

Turn Five: There should be no turn five as the black Pteri should already be dead. But however, use your multiple use weapon and ‘defend’.
