    Noticed 2 issues in latest update

    First of all, excellent job on game. Truely well done.

    2 things:
    1) does the y axis invert option work? Ive tried setting it and each time see no difference. The x axis inverts just fine.

    2) in siege, its very difficult to make out the 2nd row unit prices. Not much contrast. Let me know if youd like a screenshot

    Thanks

    COOP help

    My 7 year old and I enjoy COOP the most, but we seem to be stuck at around 7 minutes before all turns to ...

    He is a level 22 Knight, I am a level 22 Paladin. Are we just not high enough level to last 10 minutes? I am really trying to get him a decent rune, as the ones he has are crud.

    Anyone have any tips on coop and care to share? You can PM me if you don't want to post "spoilers", but it seems we are doing something fundamentally wrong because at 7 minutes we are dead no matter what strategy we take... I know we upgrade wall to steel and I spam riflemen, ballistas and other units.

    Thanks in advance...

    Lol. Ever played LOTR: Two Towers or any other LOTR? Video game Gandalf sucks compared to this hunchback lizard.

    Ok anyone got any tips for stage 11 with Engineer? Trying to beat the with as Engy, but I'm stuck there because of those orcs, and those stupid garden gnome bomber goblins.

    Actually any tips for using Engy properly in difficult levels would be great.

    Basically I counted on my wall to keep me alive. I had a fully upgraded or mostly upgraded steel wall, 4 gold mines, and really I didn't bother with troops except maybe for a few. I left the keep to kill the bombers/mages/archers. Otherwise, I shot at enemies through the door. I also had the penetrating shot (honestly I forget the name. It's the thing that does huge damage and goes through enemies.) and used that on the enemies lined up at the wall whenever it recharged. Could kill at least fifteen every time if I aimed right.

    That's my advice for the later levels. For the one you're on, you'll be fine by upgrading your wall and fixing it whenever necessary. Leave your keep whenever there's a bomber. Avoid attacking the orcs and they should ignore you for the most part.

    Maybe your playing style is best suited for other classes. It all comes down to how you play him. I have originally been playing knight and recently switched to ranger. Now my enjoyment of the game has drastically increased. Ranger has excellent potential. I put a +70 damage rune on him and even at level 1 he was a beast. I have now got him to level 34 and have no regrets. I don't even bother building units or buildings except for mines and walls of course. He can hold his own all alone if you like.

    I like to look long-term at the ranger. At level 99 he will have 100% native critical, and I'm guessing he will have around 150 native base damage but add a +70 damage rune and he will have a base average hit around 350 up close (not counting spread shots) and around 875 at max range. After maxing out skills and putting 10 points to armor you will have somewhere around 126 skill points to allocate. I think at level 99 he will have 369 native HP so if you like you can put 63 points into health and have 999 HP making him quite durable and still have 63 points left over that you could do what you want with. If you put them into damage you will be hitting a base average of about 453 up close and 1132 at max range (with +70 damage rune). With that power you can probably take out trolls with two to four hits as they come on the screen.

    As for mage, that is also an excellent class, that I have yet to fully explore.

    I have to agree with this. I switched from an engineer to a ranger, and for whatever reason, stages have become drastically easier to beat. Furthermore, by putting damage runes on it, even armored foes have become a piece of cake to mow down

    How exactly does ranger get 100% native crit at level 99? Is there something I don't understand? As far as I'm aware, stats do not just magically increase by themselves.

    Yeah, I really want to explore mage as well, but for right now, ranger is simply too fun.

    Ranger begins with 4 crit and is gaining 1 every level. My assumption is that it will continue to increase, but I could be wrong, maybe it will stop after a certain point. I guess I will just have to wait and see.

    Ballista towers. You'll probably need about 4 of them. A couple repairmen would be a good idea, too. And maybe a few Riflemen.

    Your levels are high enough to go beyond that. Is that when the 1st troll attacks? You can handle him and other tough enemies easily with the right defense (don't try to fight them yourselves). Make sure you have a full wall units (Rifleman and at least 1 Longbeard preferred). Then get a Forge, and put up 4 Mortar towers. Finally, line up 10-15 Blunderbuss, and watch them do their work. If you have extra gold, buy a Dwarven Hut and Captain's Tent will help too.

    Thanks to Platyrrhine's advice I beat 11 with Engy, but now I'm stuck at 14. Those mummies and Catapults are killing me. Any advice?

    Can anyone confirm that Runes are working or not working in versus mode? They are NOT supposed to be, and I just want to double check. I have a sneaking suspicion they are...

    I died in one hit by a level 5 ranger right as the match started... which is either some kind of exploit, a bug, or an active legendary rune at work.

    Not for my Hero. I have +2 Gold Income rune with my Paladin that seems to have no effect.

    Thanks - anyone have a high level damage rune they can test? (make sure to look at damage before and after equipping rune, to compare whats going on in-game). Thanks in advance.

    Thanks... it's basically when the troll, mummy and archers start to hit... It seems our wall units die quick, then it's nonstop action on our wall with even at steel doesn't last that long.

    Will try mortars instead of ballistas next time...
