Trying Maps On Ruthless Until I Win One... - Dungeon Defenders 157

[@Adam-ht2kf]

youre so chill dawg you the only person i fr care to watch anymore

[@chikuthedarkling]

Ruthless, I believe, was originally just supposed to buff the main campaign and super old maps for now... pretty sure a bunch haven't been brought up to ruthless standard yet which is why it seems there are super easy ruthless maps randomly. They're actually looking to make a big change to ruthless survival next, and it won't be easy(apperently) ;3

14:17 oh they do, its just that ogres are very easily influenced by aggro, and LTs generate a lot of it, so theyrr trying to path to the LTs but are stuck on the core...this happens with walls too and can be abused

You are doing amazing ! I know just like all of us you are trying to get stronger stats in addition to good old fashioned knowledge and experience with the game. The later of witch is arguably the more important of the two. You might be able to jack your Barbarian's DPS way up by farming Halloween spooktacular may as well try final round with 4 heroes on the field and see how it goes since the map will give all 4 rewards. RNG can be a MAJOR TROLL but some of the sword rewards honestly all the weapon rewards on the map CAN be pretty solid. The other good tip with Barb is use your moves when you can Hawk strike and battle pound have a little AOE and some height to them they can NAIL those floating D Bags quite effectively. Battle leap hits hard as well but is wibbly wobbly since it can land you dead center of a crowd or send you off of a death drop. Siphon stance absorbs health BUT lowers resists while using it. Turtle Stance slows the ever living hell out of you but adds some very strong defense buffs. In addition to that many years ago they added immunity to spider webs while in Turtle stance. Combining siphon and turtle works very nicely at least used to no idea if they still can work at the same time I have used mainly my ranger lately. The one major down side Stances and Strikes use a lot of mana BUT you already know the magic trick to negate that one The genie. I know your goal is to do it your self but let me know if you ever want to jack Your barbs DPS. I have a bunch of Glaciers Demise kicking around my storage account. As an event host I can't trade them for profit or sell them BUT I can can just give items away. I spooked one player the other night who was in my shop by just randomly giving them a Mr skelly and A pool skimmer when I hit my shop with my main account in order to resupply it. Sorry Really starting to ramble here. Any way keep up the good work and most important of all Keep having fun with the game.

Tell me more easy maps so i can mention that they need a buff, haha.

[@brianwalker7771]

@@chikuthedarkling Dont give Mischief any ideas hes evil enough already with the difficulty challenge. If these are to easy for you try ogre crush on ruthless. That challenge is HELL on ruthless. NOT unbeatable but YIKES!

[@chikuthedarkling]

@@brianwalker7771 Jester wheeling and wall stalling makes Ogre Crush easy, haha

[@brianwalker7771]

@chikuthedarkling in all fairness Jester wheeling makes EVERYTHING easy! I don't wheel though. Simply put my timing with the wheel sucks!

[@leekxsa]

The patch notes read that ruthless will be scaled to extra hard on the base campaign. Probably so that people can get a new challenge with the base campaign and also the boss maps give new pets on ruthless survival

[@Reivelia]

you could use something called a darkness trap for the warping core challenge @13:15 when you're talking about building towers at the entrances. Darkness traps remove enemy elemental immunity, so if you place a darkness trap on the spawn zones the enemies will immediately lose their elemental immunity and then your lightning towers should be chaining across the whole map.

[@freakybreadman6556]

good attempts today. can you do a dps check on the dummys for your hero dps and towers? im kinda curious where you stand now :)

[@clobzz]

the og campaign maps are getting a HUGE buff in quality soon on ruthless, i dont expect you to know what this means, but basically, maps 1-4 are going to be buffed to sky city quality (which is pretty good), maps 5-8 are getting buffed to coastal bazaar quality (even better) and maps 9-12 + glitterhelm are getting buffed to infested ruins quality, which btw is the highest quality in the game (for floor and chest drops, map rewards are map dependant), and is the standard for many many maps today...theyll be very hard tho but i thought itd be nice to mention this

[@leekxsa]

At 15:15 you could have jumped out by floating and then jumping from the float

[@clobzz]

“If you set your own achievements, you could play this game permanently” yeah that’s exactly why theres people with 10k hours and counting still chasing after the perfect gear which is quite literally not possible😂

[@clobzz]

4:44 yeah well...thats when theyre stacked, on a buff beam, with either a guardian or tower booster buffing them, maybe even both...😂 basically, a dps character is REQUIRED for a lot of these first waves, and your barb unfortunately doesnt even come close to qualifying for that (ruthless is meant to be for endgame players anyways, like 6k stats plus for most maps)
