Just found out this was free on Android.. Is anyone else having freezing problems??? Can't even finish one game. lol
Yeah, the assault maps are fucking HARD. Much more team based, although it seems like I basically soloed them with 3 other people lol. The 2nd one is the hardest imo cuz it gives the least amount of time. I finish with under 5 seconds left usually. Wandering around and around the in the mines, I finish with just about 30 seconds left. The weapon rewards are pretty sick though, even the insane rewards are decent (and Mythical). I can't imagine using a Backstabber on my Barbarian with Tornado Stance............. Also, the reward for doing all 3 is a pretty slick Unicorn pet...it LOOKS like it pierces enemies infinitely, but I can't be sure. But it's tight either way hahaha.
As for the Barb, haven't played him much except on the one insane glit run I just hosted. His combo is 6 hits I believe (5 clicks), and takes a full second to perform. but yeah with good weapons the dps is gonna be through the roof. I do wish that we could hotkey the stances to something else other than the numbers...
Also, Hitmonchan, I'm having a problem. I preordered all the DLC (hence, I can host NM games), but I can't host one of the new Assault maps...why is that? Just has the 'Get!' button that takes me to the steam store.

Hey. The latest patch notes indicate that this now counts towards the second achievement (Group Hug).
Not sure about the first one (A Matter of Perspective), but I'm glad they put this in.

I can give you two Trendy Bucks, which are redeemable for two tokens at your nearest laundromat. ;^)
The HC Mythical Defender progress not saving was a real bummer. But I believe in you!
yo let's do some of that tonight, my tower specs should be fine, plus my countess is now amazing
also, I'm fine with what's goin down in DD land. I don't understand what the 7.16a patch did though
EDIT: omg I can RUN in NM assault now!!! makes it possible lmfao
EDIT2: still can't do the 2nd one solo lol, need more HP!!! (not likely, I'm already at 2k I believe.)

The climb from lv72 to lv74 is so steep. My eyes nearly popped out looking at the xp requirements.
Good times though.

Do Glitter on insane. If you have a decent build it won't take too much management. Should only take about 6 to 8 runs. make sure not to take damage or let any crystals get hit for a big bonus. Since it's such a drag, just hop along with someone else.
I'm not feeling this App nerf. It makes the chasm in difficulty between insane and NM even harder and increases the gap between the haves and have nots for upper loot.

Don't think I could do Glitter Insane solo yet. I'm running a Squire Tower build (might respec at lv74) with a lv71 App. Horrible stats on everything I think too. Waiting on Lv74 before I invest mana on some decent Mythical gear.
I'll see how far I can get with Insane Glitter though.

a squire tower is PERFECT for insane glitter even at like 60.
2 spiked barricades at every choke and just follow thru with some MM and Fire towers (1 each at each choke).even if the MM weak the squire barricades are strong as fuk so itll hold them for awhile. then for icing even a extremly low leveled monks auras (strength,electric,ensnare) youll be good
STORY TIME
So, I was upgrading my spider launcher thingy (the new gun from the AMP), and it disappeared. Naturally, wtf? I'm like, okay, only like 50mil gone and I can always run it again. Went to grab my bone bow and finish upgrading...it disappeared too???????????? Now I'm pissed cuz my huntress has no dmg dealing weapon now.
Cut to like 3 minutes ago. Dickin around in the tavern, and my Bonebreaker (it let me rename before it disappeared), is BACK! But, what's this? It's much smaller, has the same stats (except 8 shots/second, lower reload speed, and smaller clip by about 100), and ALL ITS SLOTS BACK. So it's 1/220.
Oh and it shoots 3 projectiles at once.
It's like the spider launcher thingy and the bonebow were fused together?!
Now, um, I'm not sure what to do, because, for obvious reasons, people will think it's hacked. But I spent probably a billion mana if not 2 billion upgrading that gun D: Now it does 4mil dps...well I like it. I guess I should get rid of it, but it's really tempting to use hahaha... just not in a public game.
Anyways, still love this game, Hardcore Mythical Defender is a pain in the ass though.

Got a mage and a squire to Lv74 via repeatedly playing Glitterhelm solo on Hard Hardcore.
Bought some cheap entry myths in a player shop. Outfitted each Lv74 character.
Raised a Huntress to Lv60 and equipped the spidergun with 40 odd levels from the Assault pack. (Can't believe a weapon this good drops from an Easy difficulty!) Doing a healthy 185k DPS with her.
Beat my first Nightmare level solo. It was the first campaign level but with all the spiders and Ogres (with 1 million HP!) it was tough going. Squire bouncers are fantastic anti-spider devices.
Found a nice farming method for obtaining Mythic gear. Endless Spires with my Lv74 Squire. I can beat the first three waves and I just soak up all the dropped loot and open all chests. The loot can sell for about 6-10 million mana in the shop - not bad for a 10 minutes run.
Really, really enjoying the game. I haven't even touched the Monk yet and all those sexy auras folks are talking about and using. Same goes with my blue-skinned Avatar themed Barbarian.
Haven't had the want to play any other game in days. <3

So what's just been patched in today? 320MB patch, can't find notes anywhere
looks like its just the 7.16b....no new content i believe.
READ: Make barbarian viable XD
Yep found them right after I posted that. Looks like its time to use my Barb DDDD
Also, now that I've pretty much beaten the game, I like helping noobs a lot. Just helped this Squire with tower placement on MM, was getting eaten alive by wyverns and bowling balls are not good enough. Doesn't help his stats blew chunks and weren't high enough for more than about 2 people.
Also also, I like that DPS pets are useful in NM now. Probably still use guardians, but my huntress animus doing 17k*12*3 instead of w/e the fuck it was doing before is nice.

I want this game on PS3, but I want to play it with the Move controls in third person viewpoint. TTP brought up a few months ago that the Move controls have no pitch Cam controls and is stuck in birds eye view. Is this ever going to be fixed? Also is console cross platform play nixed? I don't have a beefy enough computer to handle this game on PC so PS3 is my only option. Thanks.

Hitmonchan killed my nightmare rainbow unicorn!
I think it's interesting to see Nightmare evolve, looking forward to seeing how the next Shards release will change this up. I imagine there will be tears.
Glad it was patched quickly, it was silly how effective they were in handling spiders. <3

Been practicing solo Nightmare Hardcore Mistymire Campaign with just my squire, ie no auras or anything from other classes, and I've managed to Reach the boss wave now each time.
Haven't seen the boss yet (and by hell do I fear it) because my defences fall apart right at the start/end of the last wave but hell I'm quite proud.
My stats compared with most folks are crap, 850 is my best stat in tower attack and my resistances are 30% or below, but somehow I'm doing it.
100 million+ mana each time too. Feels good.

Whenever I get Internet back, I'd be willing to come help you. You could borrow my gear if you wanted, it's from later MM waves pre patch, so much easier gotten imo, lol. I've also got plenty of DPS characters to use, but unless you have a good setup to wreck the Spider queen with some Harpoons, we wont be useful during the fight.
Also, my tower apprentice's stats might be high enough to finish it, but me and JackFrost barely did so the day before the patch. Would definitely take some tweaking.
Even if you don't want me help, I still wanna play with you lol, this game is no fun without competent people to play with.
EDIT: Hitmonchan, if we want to be in the Beta, can you give us a free pass into it? I don't wanna go through that interviewing crap lol, but if I must, I might.

Yeah dude, feel free to add me on Steam (iwasdani) I've been playing regularly recently. I'm not the borrowing type but I'd be happy to go loot hunting anytime and the Queen will die. However long it takes, she will die.
I got a few folks to play with - the more the merrier for sure. Would be sweet not having to help someone Glitter run to 74.

Didn't see 7.17 patch notes posted.
Variable growth? Sweet. Just got a App Guardian yesterday and after leveling him a bit he kinda looks the same size as the regular App. LOL
Jumped on the DLC as soon as it hit. Loaded up the map with two folks and begun.
Quit a few minutes later not finishing the game.
I know others have issue with the actual gameplay challenge - luring specific monsters together is rather tough and takes a lot of patience. What killed this for me is my PC's performance. The map was smooth as butter until the first wave started and then suddenly my framerate took a jump off a cliff. It must have been 5FPS or below for sure. I couldn't do anything and even navigating was a disaster. I think this map is very CPU intensive compared with the others as my computer can handle the graphics just fine.
Guess I'll have to wait for a new PC just to play this map. =/
Edit: Guess the gods heard my plea already. Early 7.17b (incomplete) patch notes. Coming later today.
Really hope the line of sight works as described. It should make my harpoons shine a little bit more. And <3 for trying to optimise the new DLC map for us dodgy PC peons.

Harpoons are always gonna be shit for any situations where they don't fire in a straight line. By that, I mean any situations where they have to actively track enemies. They just rotate too slowly to be much use. Hella good DPS tho, especially on ogres. ESPECIALLY when you have a huntress guardian and an app guardian. Oh lord the deeps.
As for the map...god its pretty terrible. The best strat we have come across was portaling the monsters into a holding pen made of walls. Works OK, and we would have finished yesterday, but the dude making portals couldn't hane the framerate lag. Even my computer was having trouble with it.
So maybe it will be better now? I do want to beat it and eventually do it on NM (lol) but that's gonna be impossible...

Okay, I bought bit on the Amazon $3 dealie. Told my buddies about the deal, but they're not interested. So I'm still hoping Trendy will reconsider releasing the new character classes for the consoles. :| Us dudes have been playing it at least 3 times a week and finally completed all the main levels, so I hope the next DLC isn't too far off. Still have a ton of challenges to do to keep us occupied thankfully. I'm not too far from the level cap (I'm an apprentice), so I think I'll try being a monk next.
But yeah, I also picked up the Barbarian class, the holiday DLCs, and the new Valentine's Day one. Is it possible to solo through the early levels as a Barbarian?

The harpoons are useful as you. Hopefully with te next path they won't get distracted as much by tracking enemies they can't see behind walls. Should make them slightly more effective.
Yeah I can't handle the map at he moment. No chance of playing it at all. I'm hoping their tweaks change that. I'd certainly like the new costumes.
Trendy said they will try their best to put in extra content, from the PC DLC, into the console Shards releases. It may not be much but at least there's something.
They also said they have released the next Shards release for console certification, so the release can't be too far away - including a level cap raise to 78 and some sweet new powerful loot.
I've just started leveling my Barbie, I used two Glitter runs to powerlevel him to 70 in just two games. He's quite meaty from the looks of things - including a stance that only unlocks at level 74. Looking forward to getting to know him better.
Not sure on using him to solo levels though. He has no way to stop mobs - no defences of any kind. That might pose a problem.
