a) It's hard, the reason you get overwhelmed is because you're bad and don't focus down worms right away.
b) Everyone who had trouble with hard and watched this went from failing halfway through to either winning or failing when they're almost done. If they can after watching this why couldn't the poster do it?
At 30 seconds into this Part 2, the player sends his banshees against Nydus Worms and then tells them to return to the base without looking at the base. How does the player do this? By using shift the player can query the attack commands but how does he queue the final go-back-to-base order (the green arrow)?
Is it me or is this gameplay completely different compare to the game itself on hard..with latest patches? Cause I'm having mad zerg attack and here I don't see as much zerg attacking and pushing the line.
@UnityBeing313 i had like 6 nydus(w/e you write it xD) worms on my ass and kerrigan came to my base every 5% after 15% so it was almost impossible to win (and fyi that was on normal -_-) but also for some weird reason she can look up on the highground my battlecruisers there were dieing cuze of her blue ball thingy
@UnityBeing313 this is like one of the earliest versions... if you check it doesn't even have the ingame clock... all the patches since have changed so much that this video won't teach you much, sadly.
just got my achiev watch just up to this one;s end. With a bit of luck and a lot of turtling it can be done, and dont forget you can use that nova once and not 0 times like i thought all lvl making me nearly shit myself... gotta love this game. thanks for the vid man im now 2 missions from hard completionist and just got final completionist :D
All I did was surround the Artifact with the neosteel bunkers. I also put hive mind emulators on the edges of the area where the artifact is. Take over the ultralisks that come towards you, and use them. Oh, and make sure you get a lot of banchees. You will need them for the worms, or go vikings for the airshit that will come at you. Good luck. :3
@megadude86 i;am planning to use the multi terran stragety ,M&M + medivac + those banshee to win this. i just build one line of supply depots on both sides,3 bunkers behind and place siege tanks up-top near the missle turrents(mass build turrents and make sure no FF from the Siege tanks). Those flamethrowers are a neccesity bait to lure kerrigan away from the bunkers
@cutiepe2ce I completed it yesterday. I always use to forget to put that zerg slow tower which is very important since it slows not only their movement but their attack speed as well. And yes many flame turrets so that QoB psi storm them instead of your forces.
@megadude86 yea,my tactic didn't work well =D..got that psi storm. It gets tough after 72%,i had like 11 banshee got all of them destroyed by the Storm. Reckless of me,my base was overwhelmed at 99.6
@XanaduZune use the hive mind emulator. You really really need this in the air mission. If they are placed properly you can just convert all the broodlords. They dont even add to your supply. After a while you will have an army of like 10 broodlords for free. And the beauty of this:
Kerrigan is not able to handle the broodlords "ammunition" well. If you have enough broodlords she is just trying to fight of the little suckers and dies without doing much damage at all.
This mission is not about any "tricks" or special strategy at all. It is a "positive feedback loop" type mission (go wiki).
You just need to kill nydus worms immediately with you banshees and have two lines of defense with a shitload of siegetanks on each side of the cliff. That is enough to beat it without using a single artifact wave.
Only WHEN you fuck up on those two things the attacking zerg become too strong, causing slowly more and more problems and finally overrun you. Just play clean.
God damn it, I'm an idiot...I just spent hours beating this, having to fend of GIGANTIC waves of high level units because I never realized I had to kill the nydus worms outside my base.
this makes me think about how much i hate myself for picking +150 health instead of that awsome awsome turret on top of the bunkers.... any way to go back on that one? :(
@Samurailord hey, i beat the level. the trick is perdition turrets! just mass those and you willwin with no problem. heres some details (i won in hard)
have 3 tanks and 2 thors at each choke point
when you have money and space, build perdition turrets
otherwise, mass banshees.
btw you should have 3 bunkers at all times.
if you do it right, even at the end they wont overrun you, and you might actually not even need 1 blast from that thing!
@TruAzn100 Build a bunch of vikings. I'm assuming if you chose to face the flyers in the final mission you've invested in your anti-air. The area-of-effect upgrade for vikings makes them like valkyries from Brood War: very effective against mutalisks.
Man, I need a new video card. Starcraft feels odd without animated portraits and death animations. Seeing enemies hit by a super-powerful blast of energy just *poof* feels...wrong.
Yeah, killing the flyers is definitely the way to go. Broodlords can outrange missle turrets which means you can't set a "Place and forget" defense like you can for all ground units. All you gotta do is maintain 10 banshees and Nydus canals are a cinch.
@kekeke01 actually i think the nydus is a ton easier just because of the fact that you can focus everything on ground units instaed of both flyers and ground. you dont have to worry about brood lords and mutalisks. plus i think it helps that i got the ground pound thing from the final zerg research.
