Re: Ops Mission #2 with Deadbeard is killing me

It was pretty bad. Some of the waves last forever which makes it worse when you're out of bots. I had to bail the first time when 2 more Oaks appeared and all my bots nearby were gone. It was the worst one so far, even worse than soloing it as Night Cap in Town Center.

I won with about 45% left on the objective. I used the drone a lot when the waves first spawn as they spawn far away here compared to GW 1 and 2, then switch as needed, using barrel bomb and the shot gun often when I got swarmed.

  • Barrel Blast is your best weapon. Pirate is weak in PvE because he is a sniper. I'd probably bring in a friend to beat mine.

    Thanks Guys!I I'll try. I wonder why popcap does not let me choose a npc fellow like in the GW titles. It's a big pain in the *.

  • Make sure to use your potted plants strategically, too.

    The machine gun and electric plants do major damage and should be positioned where you can use them as teammates more than defense pots.

    Hope this helps.

    If you’re on PSN, just lemme know and I’m happy to help.

    We did this last night on PC after battle chest 5. We had 2 deadbeard's and I was 80s action hero and it went well. In stage 5 have 4 bosses instead of only 2, but still only ever had one person taken down. I didn't need to go as Deadbeard since I already had it done.

    If your PC, I can give you a hand with it, especially if you're NA (ping may be bad elsewhere). I normally play NA East.

    I finally did it. Actually in the first try after we talked here.

    I just built three bots around me and let the others for later use in case of emergency.

    So I could retreat with low life and put a heal station at a free bot slot and snipe from there while the plants attacked my grave thingy.  In the end it had only 3% health left. Barrel blast was a really good weapon as well when surrounded but used it also to escape.

    @Iron_Guard8 So I made it pretty mich like you told

    For setting up my character i chose the fearless perk and some other heatlh regen upgrades.

    Thanks guys for the help. And sorry If my english sounds weird. I am not a native speaker.
