I was surprised we&#8217;d gotten them up to 32, which I sort of see as a magic level for characters (perhaps because Velvet, my first successful character, plateaued at). We&#8217;re deep into Croatoa stuff right now, which means lots of nice magic salvage, and now that Kitsune has Fred the Phantasm, she has a nice array of pets, Illusion powers, and Rad debuffs to play with. Usually we start off with her turning the biggest bad guy. Then Ex-Terra hops in, and I either drop Scary Sam (Spectral Terror) or drop my Rad debuffs on the Turned guy, or both. I&#8217;m usually in close enough at that point for Fred to get involved, and for my own choking Rad cloud to be playing a role, and between spamming Blinds and keeping the heavies turned, and (as a last resort) calling in the Boy (Phantom Army), we rarely run into too much of a problem &#8212; unless one or the other of us takes a wave of damage too quickly.<\/p>\n<p>Fun. Probably boring to read about, but fun.
