Beat The Game On Hard.
Not Too Daunting A Task However,
That Last Cave Portal Is No Joke.
After Clearing Most Of The Mall, You May Find Yourself Stuck On The End Portal, With Seemingly Infinite Enemies In Your Way.
- Here's Some Tips For Getting To The End -
You Want The Turrets In Front Of The Cave Portal Built For Sure.
- I Was Using Laser Turrets Until I Attacked It, Then I Switched To The Volley Ones, They Seem To Stun The Big Dudes And Do Splash Damage.
The Last 3 or 4 Wall Segments - I Never Built.
- Building All Of The Turret Towers And Barricading Them, Protected My Front Line And Let Me Backpedal Away From Everything.
Backpedal Away From Every Large Enemy, Never Let Your Dumpster (Siege Breaker) Take Those Hits Unless You Have To. (Big Crabs Can Catch Up)
Push Your Way Up With The Dumpster Until Another Big One Spawns.
- Then Keep It In Range Of Your Archers, But Backpedal Enough To Not Get Hit.
- Dropping Coins As You Pull The Dumpster Back Gets Rid Of Those Pesky Masked Greedlings.
- Big Guys Have Slow Attack Animations And Stop Moving To Attack
I Had Enough Archers That Even If The Big Crabs Overran Me I Could Just Go Back And Buy Another Dumpster/Robot Combo, Then Push Up Again.
The Only Waves That Reached Me Were Blood Moon Waves, As The Double Friendly Bike Charges And Multiple Barricaded Turrets Dealt With Most Enemies.
- In Cave Advice -
Defeated The Portal? Time To Go Inside!
The Mechanic Will Repair The Dumpster In The Cave! But if You See A Greed Unit On The Screen, She Probably Wont.
- Standing Idle On The Other Side Of The Dumpster From Her Seems To Help Her Decide To Do It In Cases Where Enemies Are Not Present.
Backpedal All The Way To The Cave Entrance To Avoid Taking Big Enemy Hits Or Just To Repair If Necessary.
I Killed A Spawner, Retreated To The Cave-Mouth, Fixed Dumpster, Repeat.
Just Remember To Keep Those Big Guys In Range Of Your Archers Or You Backpedaling To The Entrance May Just End Up Trapping You.
Lastly, Your Companions Bike Charges Knock Giant Enemy Crabs Over And Stop Their Crab-Charges.
Good Luck!
