Orcs Must Die 2 bulletin
(simulcast on MBM)
ILA and I completed the last campaign map in Nightmare difficulty last night. In Nightmare, the monsters are stronger and are of a more perilous variety. Moreover, you get no breaks after every third wave as you do in War Mage difficulty. On top of this, co-op Nightmare is even more challenging than single player because there are even more monsters while you get the same amount of money and same number of trap slots you get in sp; your only advantage is having two people to manage things. Finally, we 5-skulled every single level.
Implications:
1. Completing the campaign in Nightmare co-op is the height of pro OMD greatness.
2. Number 1 is publicly signified by the coveted "I'm So Awesome" achievement.
3. Remember: 5-skulling a level means that no orcs survive to get through the rift, and the level is completed under the par time.
Also, we 5-skulled the weekly challenge level, in which we were given only one weapon and one trap.
I credit ILA for his excellent strategies, vigilant interventions, and expert use of the under-valued push trap.
I cannot stress enough how pro all this is.
