Wicked Cat (Enemy)

:Not to be confused with the stage Wicked Cat, its Cat counterpart Brainwashed Cat, or Malevolent Mohawk Cat. 
Wicked Cat is a Cat-turned-Aku. He is introduced in the Wicked Cat event, which is unlocked after clearing Arcane Confluence. Although Brainwashed Cat is visually an allied counterpart of Wicked Cat, he is not obtained by defeating this enemy, but rather from seasonal Rare Cat Capsule events.
==Enemy==
Wicked Cat is basically a nerfed Crazed Cat with the Aku trait and a very frail Shield. His health and DPS are not that high and his range is fairly short, the Shield is also expected to break easily. Wicked Cat also has a surprisingly high knockback count of 30, resulting in many, many Shield regenerations.
==Strategy==
Use many hard-hitting Area Attackers that outrange Wicked Cat, like Salon Cat, Cameraman Cat, Figure Skating Cats or Surfer Cat. If you are having trouble keeping him in place, use a crowd-controller like Cyberpunk Cat. As the Shield needs to be removed often, it is recommended to either bring a Wave Attacker (e.g. Crazed Gross Cat) to break it before big hits get wasted on it or to make use of highly damaging units who may skip knockbacks, such as Bahamut Cat.
Due to the constant knockbacks and Shield regeneration, the use of Shield Piercing units and crowd-controllers is not recommended. Rather, if possible, focus on raw power.
In Infernal Tower Floor 44, Wicked Cat takes 2 minutes and 40 seconds to spawn, which is enough time to rush down Hannya before he shows up. With Hannya gone, you can safely strike Wicked Cat with whatever attackers you were using against the rest of the enemies.
