BOSS
MANIC ERASER CAT
Vulcanizer is the 2nd stage of The Crazed Tank. Previous stage: Absolute Defense. Next stage: Demon Eraser.
STRATEGY
Manic Eraser plus strong peons: if all your expensive backliners go down together you lose ground — keep one heavy attacker off cooldown at all times.
- Four meatshields minimum, five ideally, so the Capies cannot reach your backline and gaps close when Manic Eraser attacks.
- Sniper the Cat supplies the knockback Manic Eraser needs; Cat CPU spares you twenty minutes of box-pressing.
- A Gory Dark triad spawns shortly after the start — level 30 Ururun keeps them in a knockback cycle; bring bulky attackers for them.
- Hold off triggering the base until the support is under control.

CATS TO BRING 
PIZZA CAT A Pizza Cat - Very powerful midranger against the Gory Darks, a bulky attacker and is quite cost efficient for what you get. 
CYBERPUNK CAT A Cyberpunk Cat - An extremely long ranged Crowd-Controller, his main role is to slow the peons and Manic Eraser, preventing all of them from pushing too far. 
SNIPER THE RECRUIT A Sniper the Recruit - Similar to Cyberpunk, but much better suited against Manic Eraser and less against the peons. The true form grants more range for better safety and the ability to Slow which stalls Manic Eraser even further. 
KING DRAGON CAT B King Dragon Cat/Crazed Lizard Cat - Because of Manic Eraser's high range, these two are good choices since they stack up and deal gradual damage to Manic Eraser over time, along with being able to deal with peons nicely. 
CRAZED LIZARD CAT A King Dragon Cat/Crazed Lizard Cat - Because of Manic Eraser's high range, these two are good choices since they stack up and deal gradual damage to Manic Eraser over time, along with being able to deal with peons nicely. 
URURUN CAT B Ururun Cat - Even though it's inconsistent, Ururun Wolf's knockback ability along with her high range (higher than Manic Eraser!) is able to push Manic Eraser back to its base to regain any lost ground, however if she was to proc knockback against the base too much, it may cause your other backliners to slowly move int 
CRAZED BAHAMUT CAT A Crazed Bahamut Cat - Crazed Bahamut should always be used over Awakened Bahamut in this stage, seeing as backliners are better for this stage rather than a suicidal rusher unit. Although Bahamut has a high damage per hit, his TBA is simply too high to be used as a reliable damage source against Manic Eraser, so he's be 
CRAZED GROSS CAT A Crazed Gross Cat/Manic Macho Legs - If one has no better options for a piercing unit to chip the Owlbrows, Crazed Gross can help out a lot as long as there is a stepping stone that allows for him to release his waves. His True Form provides a longer reach. 
BRAINWASHED GROSS CAT B Brainwashed Gross Cat - Crazed Gross but with higher potential damage thanks to the Surge hitting multiple times, though a stepping stone is needed lest he dies to Manic Eraser. 
COURIER CAT A Courier Cat - An extremely disposable unit that is able to deliver serious damage against the Capies. He has a low cost of 690, and delivers enough damage to at least knock back the Gory Darks once and can chip the Owlbrows, though against Gory Dark he may struggle due to his blindspot. He isn't guaranteed to always ge 
LUFALAN PASALAN S Tesalan/Lufalan Pasalan - It can outrange all enemies here, and its very high damage combined with critical hits can speed up the endurance battle dramatically. However, be wary of peons due to its single-target attacks. The True Form has improved range, making it helpful to have in case the enemies push, as well as gr 
JIZO'S MOVING CASTLE S Jizo's Moving Castle - While his First Form is great, what you'll want here more is his second form, who not only acts as a better Bahamut Cat, but also nukes the Gory Darks out of existence instantly compared to Pizza Cat. 
HITMAN CAT A Hitman Cat: Deals massive damage to Traitless enemies 
BOWLER CAT A The Slow lands on Traitless enemies — great for stalling the many Traitless bosses across Empire of Cats and Into the Future. 
DRILLER CAT A 100% Weakens Traitless to 10% and (True) Strong vs Traitless. Also fits “Out-range Manic Eraser Cat.” 
D'ARKTANYAN S Strong Against Traitless on a Long-Distance area attack — answers the many Traitless bosses. 
JAGANDO JR. A Lord of Ruin Jagando Jr.: Strong against Traitless enemies (Deals 1.5x damage, only takes 1/2 damage) LIZARD CAT B Range 400 — fires from beyond its 390. 
MASTER URIL A Range 405 — fires from beyond its 390. 
AKU RESEARCHER A Range 400 — fires from beyond its 390. DRILLER CAT A Range 460 — fires from beyond its 390. Also fits “Counter Traitless.” 
CHILD OF DESTINY PHONO S Range 600 — fires from beyond its 390. Also fits “Burst the boss down.” 
BAHAMUT CAT S Huge multi-hit burst — a story-unlock powerhouse that deletes tanky enemies. 
MIGHTY REKON KORPS S Among the highest single-hit Area damage available. Also fits “Out-range Manic Eraser Cat.” 
GAIA THE CREATOR S Long-Distance multi-hit with Insane Damage — a generalist wall-cracker. Also fits “Out-range Manic Eraser Cat.” 
CRAZED MONEKO A Big crit burst against tanky/Metal targets. TECOLUGA S A 7,300-AP long-range hit obliterates tanky targets when the Critical connects. Also fits “Out-range Manic Eraser Cat.”
