AFK set-up on The Tower endless
After a 3 month or so break from the game I return. Get the new DLC, and try out the new Tower Endless (Tower map = Epic WIN). Only to find out that the new Teleportal trap is really powerful. I mean, I'm currently sitting at wave 105, on these forums not doing anything while letting the game play in the background. Nothing gets through my set-up.
Weapons:
- Crossbow
- Frost Amulet
- Healing Trinket
Traps:
- Tar (although barely use this at all)
- Spring trap
- Push trap
- Web trap
- Teleportal
- Mushroom
- Decoy (pretty useless at high levels)
So yeah. Thinking of just letting myself go game over at Wave 111 or so.=P
Keep going. You will have to ditch your "into the pit" lava traps before wave 170
Make a mushroom forest. Personally, I'm hiding behind a diagonal line of 10 teleporters inside the rift room so the waves of electric sappers+gnolls can't rend me if they make it through all the tower areas.
luckily, no more mr moneybags after 100.
Orcs not dying by lava sounds more like a bug than an intended "feature". But well, I didn't feel like going through another 60 waves. Killed myself at 111.
And personally not really a fan of mushrooms. Well, they're good and effective. But not as fun as push and spring traps are.8)
I'm on 119, and I'm sure you're right about the lava behavior being a bug.
I use the 3 swinging maces to hurtle the "small" guys into the Lava. The Tar and chill Arrows slow them down. I still have coinfloors with the linger ability before the last tar/mace, so I get ~5 coins a mob. Combined with the wealth trinket and teleporter coins, you always have income. I'll want to see how long this tower can run.
edit: wave 239 and counting. I ditched the coinfloors at 165 to prepare for removing the maces, etc, as I wouldnt be getting any more kills from Lava at 170, not wanting to test out the potential lava-fails-to-kill issue for hours. I removed all the slow down mechanisms and have two floors of mushrooms and the top floor is 1/2 mushroom, 1/2 teleporter pretty much. Endless now plays itself. I changed to the lowest resolution windowed mode from 1080p fullscreen and the game was fine multitasking until around wave 150+. Now it's pretty choppy, dropping a few frames every few seconds. There are more traps than the smooth waves, so that might be the cause.
issue i have found with teleport pad setups is you cant afk becoz of mr moneybags -_-
Personally I'd love to see a video of your AFK set up from start to finish.
I'm always conflicted about where to set up things first.
OMD2 is the first tower defense game that I've ever played (and probably the only one I'd enjoy). So while not horrible at it, I would like to be better.
