Even though this isn't the type of game for me, it is an absolute joy watching you work your way to figuring out how to "perfect" each level. I've seen a few other people mentioning a "road to the top" where you aim for higher scores, and I think that'd be fun to see you attempt on some of your favorite levels.
Arcane Dragons (Bounce) + Thorns, and a few strategical Freeze Traps, absolutely annihilates this level. I used your base design, and start with (2) Dragons opposite each other in the kill corner, +(1) Thorns placed for maximum strategic growth potential. Then (2) more Dragons for the same area +1x freeze trap inside killbox, and (2) more Thorns for total ground coverage potential. As you get more gold, you can place (3-6) Dragons + (2-5) Freezes + (2) Thorns downstairs that will kill any sub-lord enemies; Near end waves, place (3-6) Dragons + (1-3) Freezes + (1) patch of Thorns on *both* upstairs spawn stretches - giving you complete AFK mode. I appreciate all your videos. You have helped me a great deal!
Pally, I can assure you these videos have helped me immensely. Haven't five skulled a few of the earlier missions yet, but you've got a sound strategy and I'm figuring it. Thanks and keep up the great work
Hey Pally, I love joining your charity livestreams, donating money and chilling. For the kids! I can’t speak for anyone but me, but I would personally be just as happy with an all-day or 12-hour charity stream if it would be better for your health. Just wanted to say that. Keep up the wonderful entertainment!
Agreed. Or like Tryk does with a subbathon. However saying that, living in Europe, it's kinda nice to know that I'll catch your stream no matter what time of day it is.
I'm going to miss this series when it's done. I hope you can replace it with another game that involves just as much imagination and ingenuity. Listening to your gears turn to solve problems is very fun!
Pally you have saved me again. I had a strat that seemed to be working alright. Just block off the one set of stairs and make them walk around. BUT THEN THOSE DAMN DIRTY ELEMENTALS AND SAPPERS KEPT BLOWING UP MY BARRICADES BY ROUND 8!!!! For Orcs Must Die 4 I hope they cut back on barricade destroyers a ton because they are not fun to deal with. They feel like they kill build diversity and are just frustrating when you don't set up traps specifically to stop them and them alone.
I don't think I've seen you ever use them, but this seems like a good time to mention that those golden cauldrons you see along the walls are full of lava. Situational, but they do a nice bit of damage and your setup here could be altered a bit to use one. You just shoot them to use them. Not a huge help, but maybe for panic situations.
You could be losing barricades, or a particular barricades, because of pathing; the first barricade goes beyond the balustrade, and the orcs are pathing near, so try it with the barricade in line with the balustrade.
Did you consider using those furnace things? the ones that you put on the floor and spray fire out of them. I thought I saw some good placements for them in your setup.
Pally, I love your OMD3 videos, man! I think I read somewhere that grinders have a set amount of damage they can do before they're disabled and that bonuses don't add to the total, so you may find more success with the wall blades in the future. I'm not sure - but it's worth looking in to.
If you have trouble with getting restful sleep you may need to see a specialist. Maybe it is just your bed, but perhaps it is sleep apnea. Which is a serious condition and does affect sleep quality.
If you had not mentioned that it took you many atempts, i would have thought to myself... omg! This level took me like a whole day to five deathshead it.
Surprised you didn’t replace the barrel dispensers with the dragons, especially since you mentioned it in the map intro. [EDIT]: or the butterfly traps to go above the ones you have.
Those are more for if he was utilizing the long hallways up top. He mentions that in duo they worked pretty well, but in solo it's hard to keep enemies up there while defending the barriers from all of the fire elementals.
I thought about that too. They would do good damage on the tile that feeds into the barricade line. Everywhere else would only be hit by the dragon for one second
@@MFPallytime My wife and I bought this game this weekend because of this series. We played through the entire Old friends campaign on the standard difficulty this weekend! On this level We tried this strategy and you were right, dragons were only really effective in the main entry to the killbox. They were extremely effective there though.
I don't mean to burst your bubble but this level can be beaten with nothing but archers and a couple barricades. In fact it's way easier because they're cheaper and you can spam them EVERYWHERE
Colosseum was by and far my least favorite map to 5 skull. I used a similar barricade setup, but used some different traps/weapons. Congratulations on making it through it!
There is a way to cheese this map and make it way too easy. All you need is barricades and one other trap, plus weapon of choice. Arcane brimstone and nothing but brimstone.
Hey I used to love orcs must die unchained, after playing through the main campaign of orcs must die 3 it feels repetitive, boring and as if there's no real goal to reach for in the game, does it get better in the max campaign or is there a mode I'm missing? I feel like it's just upgrade ur main traps and character and now you've completed the game, it took just a few days
Love the series Pally but would love if you incorporated the map-specific bombs/oil stuff more (cant stop staring at the big flaming buckets of oil in this one). Otherwise, keep it up and get some sleep!
I'm really enjoying these videos, Pally. I don't know how much more effort it would be, but could we see more attempts that didn't work? See the process rather than you talk about it after the fact only? Nah, just typing it out makes it sound like a lot extra. Keep up the good work!
I just wanna know how many orc deaths pally is responsible for at the end of the series, how many orc families will never see their loved ones ever again? What was the cost pally...WHAT WAS THE COST?!?! 😭😭😭
I usually find tower defense style games boring but I have really enjoyed watching this series. Keep up the good work.

The barricade heal works on the whole map, by the way. You don't need to be close.

so this was your most beautiful set up yet. im always a fan of reusable walls. glad to see you use this strategy :)
This one was hilarious! Thanks for suffering for our success

15:25 those orcs to the left look like they are doing a mosh pit!

Would love to see you using the provided traps within the levels. You could use Flip Trap to toss enemies into those grinders in the main courtyard.

Hahaha, thanx for your videos. You are a very likeable person :) I enjoy watching and find this very helpful.

Kinda hopping for the day they add railings or something for the steps. Make it cost more then Barricades but let you Divide the stairs.
Loving this series. And maybe the delirium, just a bit :D
If you had not mentioned that it took you many atempts, i would have thought to myself... omg! This level took me like a whole day to five deathshead it.
I struggled with this one on normal... don't know how you do it

Can the boiling oil cauldrons be used for damage?
Yep!
For the algorithm!
Glad to see some representation for #teambrimstone on a fiery level!
Fooor the algorithm!
I'd love to see more even agree this series finished
Could you put arcane dragons on the left side walls where they gather to look at the barricades before they come to the kill box?
I thought about that too. They would do good damage on the tile that feeds into the barricade line. Everywhere else would only be hit by the dragon for one second

You almost had me there pallie I thought you were gonna do a cheesy plug when you mentioned you had to get your sleep schedule for your stream...
Oh great algorithm, please help my friend Pallytime!
Have you considered seeing a sleep doctor? They might have some tips for getting your schedule adjusted. Keep up the great work!
Flip trap city baby!

Hey Walter, get you some melatonin. Saved my sleep and my mind

Nice work
I feel bad Pally has to remind me to leave a like every single time... I'm sorry Pally I try I swear! On my phone I like 1st and then watch
There’s a co-op mode. You could do a co-op run through with Trikslyr. I’m just saying.
Yea he talked about how he played it with Muka in co-op mode for all the levels and that is why its harder to come up with solo strategies.
Pally litterally talks about the co-op mode every episode. Smh.
gogo algorythm!
I'm really enjoying these videos, Pally. I don't know how much more effort it would be, but could we see more attempts that didn't work? See the process rather than you talk about it after the fact only? Nah, just typing it out makes it sound like a lot extra.
