Don’t have a mic at the moment. Just broke my fifth one. I know that’s important to some people, like me.
Really need some people to complete Tower Defense 2 and Be More Objective 2. Those things are hard as hell to beat by yourself if not impossible. Plus none of my AI teammate seem to spawn. Not that they would be much help anyway.[/QUOTE]
I remember the very first time I loaded up the game and did these challenges alone and they were quite difficult. Now I don’t know if it’s that time has passed or what, but any new character I start I run through all 3 stars of each challenge on one shot. I can do the same with lvl 20’s except BMO I struggle there on my 20, but it’s still doable. They are all definitely easier on a brand new character though (lvl 1-4/5).
The key to Escort - is constantly staying within the bots activation radius so that it is always moving forward. At the same time you keep an eye on the doors. The ones with flashing lights over the top are the one’s that are going to have enemies come out. I think they always come in waves of threes. Since I see the light and know they are coming they are dead before they break the door way. If you keep the bot constantly moving as I suggested 9/10 times no more than one wave will make it through each door. Lastly, make sure you capture the CP as this will allow you to refill your ammo. Capture the CP while remaining within the bot activation radius as well. Others have suggested use 2 SMG’s personally I keep the same loadout as I do for MP so Medium w/ Rhett+Kross.
Tower Defense - Always buff your weapon and keep a landmine at the base of the CP. The key here once again is the flashing lights. You will always know which doorway the enemies are going to come through and with enough practice none of them will make it through the doorway anymore than the bots in the escort challenge. If you die the bots are going to go straight for your CP. Hence the landmine. At the same time when you respawn if you come out the way that’s the fastest to the CP, chuck a frag nade up to drop right in front of the CP where your landmine was. That will knock any bot trying to cap it down on his ass.
For me these were the key components to beating these missions. None of the strategies I suggested requires you to have any class specific or general skills to be successful. Be more objective has a bit of randomness to success based on bot AI on both sides and how things play out. However, Escort and TD are much more predictible and therefore you can create a plan of action to destroy these challenges.
