Lol, after playing about 10 games I decided I wanted to try getting Hobbit to lvl 5 again, loaded One Ring quest. Found some buildings in centre, ok, then found the volcano, alright, then fled a Mind Flayer and found a horse, super, then a bit further found the One Ring on the ground. Rode quickly back to the volcano and chucked it in, gg, 8.5 days and 182km traveled...this game has been kicking my ass hard the whole time I've played it, and now this! :)
Heh, just spawned on final campaign level (on hard) while the laser was activated....no avoiding that one! So yeah, being able to move a little before losing invincibility would be nice.
Also the Sniper is great but the Juggernaut with a high damage shotgun is the overall best for clearing campaigns and challenges combined...if you only want to take play one character to beat the game Juggernaut is definitely the easiest. Sniper owns Campaign though :)
I'm doing it with Engineer which is by far the worst class, no good guns and killstreaks are terrible...leaning heavily on the dooty gun and sheep cannon for the harder levels.
You are invincible for a couple of seconds as you spawn. The second you come off invincibility you can start shooting. So if you get the timing right you can shoot at the same moment the enemies can shoot you. Perhaps getting a half second to move during the invincibility could be nice though.
Really fun game :) AI is exploitable though, too often you can just hang far enough back and either whittle down enemy HP while they jump between two different platforms, or just blast away at an enemy hanging out just beyond the edge of the screen, and they just stand there and take it instead of responding. If it was possible to fix that then the game would be perfect. As it is I finished all campaign and challenges with a lvl 25 Medic and lvl 14 Assassin (one challenge requires you to play an Assassin).
