1-5 VENUS
Doge variant — first Alien enemy you face. 900 HP, 150 dmg, low movement, hits for solid damage at melee range. Easily killed by Lion Cat / Crazed Sexy Legs / Bahamut.
Croco's Alien variant — fragile (3,000 HP, 900 AP, 130 range, no abilities) but appears in 42 CotC stages with magnifications scaling from 100% to 2,400%. At high mag his DPS climbs to 12k-25k. Crazed Sexy Legs / Macho Leg / Wheel Cat clear groups easily.
100% Warp chance back 500 range for 3.3s — extremely disruptive. Low range vulnerability. Counter with Area Attackers and Warp-Immune cats (Bora/Lumina line, Rover Cat Mk II).
Second enemy introduced. Slightly tougher than Doge but still functions as fodder. Red variants are separate enemies (Ginger Snache, etc.).
Spawns in groups of three. Area attackers clear them fast.
Faster, stronger Shibalien with 35% Warp chance back 750 range. Slowable/freezable like other Aliens. Bahamut can one-shot in its first appearance.
Venus base is golden (Japanese name Kinsei = "Gold Star"). Star Peng + Shibalien Elite combination. First stage where Star Peng appears — bring Anti-Alien with Warp-Immune backliners.
