[NeoLemmix] Skills you can't live without

[namida]

My replays from the above:

Windy 1 "Have A Lem Soda" - 2 builders
Windy 4 "Sandcastles In The Sand" - 7 builders; No diggers (separate replays)
Windy 6 "Diggers Mania" - 6 blockers
Windy 7 "Take On The World" - 7 builders; 1 digger (separate replays)
Windy 8 "Step by Step" - No builder; No digger (separate replays), both are also no climber

[Proxima]

The remainder of Windy and first half of Stormy, solved by me, namida and nin10doadict. There are a lot of levels in this bunch where the result is just "you need all the given skills", but since we started looking at PimoLems, it makes sense to finish the pack:

Windy

11 "From Pillar to Post" - 2 bombers, 1 builder, 2 diggers
12 "Break the Ice" - 2 climbers, 2 floaters, 7 builders
13 "Up the Abacus" - 2 builders, 2 bashers
14 "The Landing Strip" - 2 climbers, 1 bomber, 2 builders, 2 miners
15 "For the Greater Good" - 1 climber, 2 builders, 2 diggers
16 "Try To Compromise Before You Cue" - 2 blockers, 2 bashers, 1 digger
17 "X Marks Nothing" - 1 climber, 1 floater, 3 builders, 1 basher
18 "Underground Water Storage" - 1 basher, 1 miner
19 "Mizmaze" - 1 climber, 1 bomber, 1 builder, 1 basher
20 "Nick of Time !" - 1 climber, 1 floater, 10 builders, 4 bashers

Stormy

1 "Pop'n'top" - 2 climbers, 2 bombers, 1 builder, 2 bashers, 1 miner
2 "Bibbledi-Bobbledi-Boo" - 1 floater, 2 builders, 1 basher, 1 miner
3 "Diamond Ribs" - 2 climbers, 2 floaters, 1 builder, 6 bashers
4 "Rule of Three" - 1 climber, 1 floater, 1 bomber, 9 builders
5 "Timing & Space" - 1 bomber, 3 builders, 1 basher
6 "A Breezy Breeze !" - 1 bomber, 4 builders, 1 basher
7 "Diving Area" - 1 floater, 1 bomber, 1 builder, 3 bashers, 2 diggers
8 "Broad Pit" - 1 climber, 2 floaters, 2 bombers, 1 blocker, 8 builders, 2 bashers, 1 miner
9 "A Matter of Pragmatism" - 1 climber, 3 blockers, 2 bashers, 1 digger
10 "Erbalunga" - 2 builders, 3 bashers, 3 diggers

[namida]

I've only looked at Windy 10 to 13 since last time, due to the amount of time I spent on 13. (I'll probably continue soon anyway, but taking a break for now.)

We've got here:

Windy 11 "From Pillar to Post" - 2 bombers
Windy 12 "Break The Ice" - 7 builders; No basher; No digger (3 separate replays; the latter two I'm expecting will be patched out)
Windy 13 "Up The Abacus" - 2 builders; 2 bashers (separate replays)

In particular, Windy 13 with 2 builders is one of my most insane challenge replays of all time.

[namida]

And the rest of Windy.

Notable replays attached.

[namida]

Here's my notable replays for Casualemmings / Calm (1 to 41; haven't looked at the last two yet).

[namida]

Redux / Lunatic 12, eliminated the basher.

EDIT: And my 9 skills replay for Lunatic 13, eliminates one additional builder. EDIT: And then a variation on it eliminates the basher, too.

[Proxima]

Since we have so many packs in progress at once, I'm making a note to myself to remind myself of which levels I want to have another look at.

* SubLems: Sweet 18 has no result yet and is the only level remaining in this rank.
* MiniLems: Need to look over everything from Taxing 7 onwards. (Minim says Taxing 11 and 16 in particular should be looked at.)
* Lemminas: Pandemonium 13 hasn't been looked at for builders in particular.

Also, an addendum to the Casualemmings results above: Calm 40 needs 2 bombers, not 3.

[Proxima]

My best result for Pandemonium 13 is 6 builders (as well as the 2 bashers).

I've solved Pandemonium 1 and agree that it requires all the skills. Since I've now looked at all the levels WillLem and Minim did without me, I'm happy to call these the final results -- until someone finds another improvement

[namida]

My 5-skill solution to Lunatic 25 eliminates the bomber.

[Proxima]

I finished PimoLems/Stormy. As far as I can see, levels 11-15, 17 and 20 require all the given skills.

16 obviously needs only one floater, and no bombers (since it requires 100%); I was able to save a basher, but I don't think the destructive skills can be rearranged to save something else instead.

19 requires 11 bombers and everything else. 18 is the only one in this group with a surprising result: 2 blockers, 8 builders, 1 basher, 2 diggers. (The attached replay uses two bashers, but one could obviously be switched with a bomber.)

I might hold off on adding Stormy results to the OP, to see whether Icho decides to fix any levels in this rank.

[namida]

Some more PimoLems replays from yesterday. The Stormy 16 1 Miner, can also very easily be adapted into a no-digger.

[namida]

And one more.
