I think this game is amazing, and really easy to do nightmare once you get a solid strategy. Hope this helps all who read it (unless your badass and don't need help, in which case I hope you have a good day) Edited Octoby anomalous views This is good to know because if your having trouble with set up time in nightmare you can play the same map on warmage and get the locations of traps and timing down so you are better prepared to face the foes in nightmare.

Oh and something else I notice while finishing warmage is (all who have already started nightmare may know) that there are harder enemies as well as more of them in nightmare mode but that the order in which they come out in warmage is very similar if not the same as nightmare. You can't just throw one down and hope for the best. If you do use this (and it does work as I was using them every other level on warmage) you have to put some slow down pads (the tar pits) underneath them to help maximize effectiveness, steam vents might also help with this or use the blockades to funnel. its nice but way to expensive for just on trap. Somebody also mentioned the swinging mace. If you stack then in two's and three's at corners (so archers can't get them at a distance or right in front of the rift they are just like putting up brick walls. They have become clutch and very worthwhile. but as mentioned in an earlier post "guardians" specifically paladins are just making things happen left and right for me. brimstone and spikes layered back to back. should be fun.Īs mentioned earlier I'm still rocking alt lightning attack and 100% extra gold per magic kill. This morning I made it to the start of the second act and am now on the arena level. Nightmare mode is ez, you just have to know the right general strategic techniques that apply across all levels.įinished 5 skulls on warmage last night and was super excited to start playing hard on nightmare. Put some tar traps down and that trap ALONE can take out an entire level (minus a bit of damage on ogres unless you stun them while inside). Brimstone works wonders on Finale and is absolutely essential.Īlso, a great strategy is to use the swinging mace trap, but you have to maze it with barricades so the orcs have to run the length of it instead of just over one square. Those make sure the sappers never reach your barricades and blow them up. If you do that and stack about 2-3 paladins (at least) together with stun, they should survive the entirety of the match if you don't leave them to fend off a wave by themselves.Īlso, for sapper levels, make brimstone and grinders your #1 priority and put them right at the door entrances (or as close as possible for grinders). I also focused solely on health regen for Paladins and Archers unless the level required little to no use from them (which was about 20% of the time). It was a little frantic getting around placing traps in the 3 whole seconds you get during break, but I managed. I'm about 6 levels from completing it (too much Dark Souls lately), but other than one level, I've 4-5 starred every one so far. I honestly didn't find Nightmare hard at all. Now since i my self have only passed to levels on nightmare these tips may become useless BUT try them out and they may help. the knowledge skill tree with the 100% more gold skill is just phenomenalĤ.and you can watch the videos to learn the horde spawns and pause your game while you wait to see which door is going to be heaviest next. use a magma/lava trap then another trap so you don't wast the flames, it looks like you can go lava-spikes-spikes-lava without waste.ģ. I agree with the person who mentioned the youtube videos those tricks are for warmage but you can learn some good stuff.Ģ. I barely passed the first two levels and my arm pits were sweaty. man of man can the stamped take the fun out of this game or what. I've two levels left to get 5 skulls on in warmage and needed a break so i decided to get a few of the nightmare levels done. I don't need to use them yet I got lucky when I picked my upgrades. the good news is that if you missed upgrading a trap that you like alot from your skulls in warmage mode, you actually get more skulls in nightmare mode.

I've been through on apprentice and warmage and they don't appear to let you upgrade more than once.
