Water DPS
Dazopus
Dazopus guide for Clash Critters with role notes, upgrade priority, best modes, teammate ideas, image sources, wiki facts, and conservative build advice.
Quick Verdict
Reel Catch is the page's main hook
Dazopus's case is narrow but readable: summon pressure. Compare it against another DPS so the result is tied to team function, not collection value. Move it into testing only if multiple enemies stay alive long enough for area damage to matter.
Public rarity context is limited here, so the skill text and repeated tests matter more than tier assumptions. The wiki stat table is sparse, so judge this page by skill behavior and role fit first. The current public data does not place it cleanly inside a full evolution chain.
F2P value: Tied to how often Dazopus's Water DPS job appears in your current blocker list.
Best Modes
Good places to test
- Campaign or Horde waves where summon pressure can hit more than one target
- Boss Challenge attempts once a frontline already protects the damage slot
- Evolution-line testing for its standalone or currently unclear evolution position status before spending food or duplicates
Be careful in
- Boards with no reliable frontline in front of the damage slot
- Pure single-target checks if its area value is the main reason you are considering it
Compare results against the Gold Mine Rush guide, Boss Challenge guide, and Horde Invasion guide.
Best Teammates
Dazopus wants protection first, then a support or healer if the fight lasts long enough for summon pressure to repeat.
Use these as comparison partners, then keep the pairing that makes Dazopus's listed skill easiest to measure.
Upgrade Priority
Priority: Dazopus earns upgrade attention when its summon pressure matches the stages blocking progress.
Give Dazopus one stable formation and one control run without it; upgrade only if the Water DPS slot is the difference.
Stop before rare materials if Dazopus needs too much protection or setup to perform its listed job.
Evolution Trial
Skills
- Reel Catch: Launches a water orb that deals damage. Sometimes launches a large water orb that deals AoE damage and summons a small octopus, which deals AoE damage when knocked down.
Strengths and Weaknesses
Strengths
- Area damage gives Dazopus a clear reason to test it against crowded waves.
- Water typing makes it easier to slot into teams that need that element without changing the whole board.
- Summon or clone behavior can change a lane without needing every slot to be raw damage.
Weaknesses
- Area-focused value drops sharply when the fight feeds enemies one at a time.
- Unknown rarity context makes it harder to estimate long-term cost from public data alone.
- Dazopus can be outclassed if another Tatari covers the same DPS job with better current investment.
Common Mistakes
- Using Dazopus in a fight that does not ask for summon pressure, then blaming the unit for a bad matchup.
- Putting scarce food into Dazopus before the account knows whether the full line is worth chasing.
- Counting summons as value even when they do not improve lane timing or survival.
