Warcraft 3 (Hard): Eternity's End 07 - Twilight of the Gods

Playlist: • Warcraft 3 (Hard Diffi...
Warcraft 3 Reforged supposedly will alter the original Warcraft 3 campaigns, so let's blast through Reign of Chaos and The Frozen Throne on Hard difficulty before Reforged is released! These videos will contain all cinematics and dialogue along with explanations of the strategies I'm using as a semi-walkthrough.
I am nowhere near as experienced with these maps as the StarCraft 2 campaigns, so it won't be quite as polished of a playthrough, but we will succeed through Hard difficulty nonetheless!

I'm sure there was someone at Blizzard who thought disabling Chimeras for Night Elves in this campaign was to make sure that the player couldn't use them to cheese Archimonde's base with air siege. People ended up finding ways to cheese the base anyway, such as running into the enemy base using the GoblinLandMine/InvulnerablyPotion combo to blow up structures.

[@bbenjoe]

Exactly. Also originally one more mission was planned but it was felt unfulfilling in the end so it was cut. It's return in Warcraft 3 reforged is likely though.

[@spike333s3]

Blizzard can just summon the Undead from outside of the map. This way can enable the Chimeras use. I wonder why Blizzard didn't do so.

[@grantarmstrong9648]

For those who don't know there was originally supposed to be another mission that comes after this one but the creators took it out cause found it took much of a slugfest to get through so they decided to cut it out and made this the final mission btw the strategy guide calls this mission Archimonde's Ascent so perhaps Twilight of the Gods was originally supposed to be the name of the "Final" mission I mentioned already but since that was already cut from the game the name was given to this mission instead.

Kinda ruined archimonde's image though. We all see this guy as an unstoppable force of destruction who got nuked by woodland spirits self destructing in his face. They even made archimonde even more pathetic somehow in wow

[@sawekjasel7877]

@@finnheisenheim8274 I disagree. These spirits are dead Night Elves and they were sacrificed to kill Archimonde. In a way the Night Elves sacrificed their race to kill him. As well as their immortality and the World Tree itself. It appears to me more like a meaningful sacrifice for a meaningful victory. It also gives credency to a fact that Burning Legion and Archimonde himself feared the Night Elves. WoW ruined everything in terms of lore so I won't elaborate. But I've always considered it non canon.

Congrats Jay! I didn't think it was possible to hold the human base there!

[@chic-fil-ashouldopenonsund3623]

you can do it pretty easily. you can even move all your ancient protectors and keep rebuilding them in the human base like some kind of tower defense game. melee hippogrpyhs for anti air, druids of the claw half bear form for tanking and damage, half human for healing along with furion's ulti, dryads for abolish magic against those annoying dreadlord sleeps and the other units can be a mix of huntresses or archers. this is what i did. took the 2 extra gold mines for fast gold to be able to keep on rebuilding ancient protectors. i even built a couple of moonwells there for added healing.

[@WayWash7]

imagine if the final cinematic didn't have wisps but instead tyrande's starfall ability used in some way... it'd be amazing to see that ability in a cinematic

[@ExValeFor]

i see this mission as a testament to how exceptional your raw WC3 skill has become. you have your fair share of brainfarts, but all these years playing this game have not gone to waste, this video makes that obvious. No jayborino unbeliever should remain unmoved after seeing this.

[@xDinomanx]

Interesting little thing, in the original credits for Reign of Chaos (pre-patch), in the scene where the footman tries to launch a boulder at a Zepplin via catapult it normally has an Orc Grunt guarding it. Looks like they changed it to a Bandit instead. Also the extra short at the end, it used to be the Starcraft Marines vs Orc Grunts armed with flamethrowers. The results from that fight were always random, followed of course by the winning side getting obliterated by an exploding sheep at the end.

[@worduser899]

Such an underrated aspect is that you don't talk over cut-scenes and movies. What a good playthrough, enjoyed it thoroughly. Beat this mission on hard on the first attempt only copying your army composition, Hippogryph Riders and Dryads. Did lose human base though, probably because of misusing Starfall. Thanks!

[@ernestomarcos0103]

After watching this I came to the conclusion that the March of the Scourge would've been much easier if Jaina had stayed to defend instead of Arthas. Blizzard really wrecks the Meat Wagons. Also Goblin Mines rule.

[@DVFHAFYT]

Interesting strategy, I went with the "have no idea what you're doing" strategy, then have 4 griffon riders hover over a health fountain and make most of archimonde's army hover over them instead of destroying my base to win, by accident.

Amazing strategy Jay :)! Furion with with neklace of spell immunity is indeed great when spamming Tranquility since he can't be stunned or put to sleep. You also had a good choice of units, Dryads are the best units to use here because spell immunity ( they can't be possessed!) and abolish magic, and of course Goblin Land Mines are broken, My strategy for this map is similar to yours but I like to use some moonwells for support. Also, I don't know if you have played the Blood Elf Campaign already, but it would be fun to see you use many Naga units there, especially Coatl in mission 5 since that is the only mission the player gets them.

[@misterkefir]

GG WP! Very nice playthrough my man. Appreciated.

[@ryanchung8908]

If you haven't already finished the "King Arthas" mission, hopefully it's not too bad. Sacrificial skulls aren't too important but they're disabled due to the requirement for graveyards. As for the mines, consider saving 2 sets on Sylvannas for the 3rd mission. Check "Jack of Hearts" channel to see how mines can cripple the secondary undead faction supporting Varimathras.

i treated this campaign like a tower defense game and moved all my ancient protectors to the human base and just kept rebuilding them there. built a couple of moonwells for healing and split my army to melee hippogryphs for pure anti air and just had a druid of the claw + dryad army for land and i think i just put my immunity necklace on tyrande for the full starfall duration. and if all my land units died, i just uprooted some of my unit producing buildings to go and fuck the undead up. i was shook to know that i could finish the campaign with no bases destroyed by the undead. lol. good times.

[@sino47291]

You’re simply a GENIUS! Jaina survives!

[@ernestomarcos0103]

So I started this mission and went "Ok I'm gonna do what Jay did and see how well it goes". I immediately lost my Hippogryph Riders, Shandris got possessed and Furion died at around 30-something. Obviously Jaina's base fell and I ended up restarting lol. One difference was that I gave the Necklace to Tyrande so that they wouldn't kill my Starfall, that might've made Furion take too much damage but he was never stunned out of the Tranquility tho.

[@arvinmarkmidel1419]

I find this mission easier in hard mode compared the last mission of scourge campaign in the Frozen Throne. You have to multitask from the attacks of Kael and Vashj since your main objective is not to let Illidan capture the 4 enchanted obelisks.

[@clarkb2697]

At the start, the undead base did not exist. It's just Archimonde and a few acolytes. Speed runners have cheesed this level by rushing to destroy the undead base before they finish summoning, or become a significant threat. Then, it's just Archimonde himself and the demons he summons, to deal with.

Bruh, Shandris doesn’t add up to your food supply and she doesn’t add up to your upkeep. Just watch at 27:10 lol. She’s costs 0 food. That’s basically the reason why your food cap was 89 but then turned 88 when the wisp built an Ancient Protector. The food remained 88 even tho Shandris was knocked by an Infernal lmao.

[@RebelWvlf]

I ragequitted so hard while playing this mission, so all I did at last 10 minutes is to "whosyourdaddy" their whole base. Undead are so forced and OP in this title, especially Banshees with Curse and Frost Wyrms are pain in the ass.

[@ryanchung8908]

Awesome job holding onto Jaina's base. Supporting hippogryph riders with mass dryads did much better than mixed bears & dryads with moonwells. I didn't think putting mines in the back would be better than putting them just outside of aggro range and softening the wave up front.

[@UnsaneMan]

How dare you trying to destroy the TREES

[@Olexxus]

I don't want to brag or get full of myself, but I played this classic since it came out and beat it so many times on Hard that I hope Reforged will have even higher difficulty setting. Last time I beat this map I used mass protectors. To ensure enough gold coming I stole orc and human gold mines. I had like 300 Protectors defending Jaina and mass hippos in the air. This map is basically tower defense.
