Pikmin 2: 8-Day NDNS Challenge - Day 4 (death_unites_us)
2Took a long break from this but now we're back, and what a day to return to.
We don't have access to blue pikmin yet, so the goal is to do everything that doesn't involve water. This means we need to get the gerkin gate, the impediment scourge, do both the glutton's kitchen and the citadel of spiders, and grow as many yellow pikmin as we can.
I use two different exploits with purple pikmin in order to get the gerkin gate and impediment scourge, which can sometimes be a huge hassle, but the big problem on this day usually ends up being the fiery bulblax. It doesn't look hard, but fiery bulblaxes are probably the most difficult enemy in the game because you can't use purple pikmin on them. No matter how fast you throw your pikmin there is always achance they he instantly shakes them off and takes a bite out of half of them. The method I use seems to work pretty well though, if you throw a couple pikmin at a big ark, then close the distance, all of them will hit at once, follow that up with a swarm and the bulblax will usually fall over, giving you enough time to kill him before he stands up.
Everything else is pretty self explanatory, the important thing in terms of time on this day is getting the yellow pikmin grown and on that yellow barrier ASAP. I could have done a better job managing the yellow pikmin, but I had enough time in the end. All the caves are pretty easy on this day, breadbugs are a joke and beady longlegs is easy as long as you don't take a giant crowd of pikmin. Also I do each cave twice to grow more white and purple pikmin for later endeavors.
