The Horace Threat Recommended Strategies and Tips
Use Exploding Kegs to Take Out Multiple Enemies
There will exploding kegs scattered around the area. Blow these up when enemies are near them to deal great damage.
Fight on the Bridges
Use the bridges on the map to squeeze your enemies into a tight area. This leaves them vulnerable to powerful AoE abilities.
Bring Healing Potions
The final bosses deal heavy damage so make sure to bring the maximum amount of healing Potions.
How to Beat the Gigas
| Tips for Beating Gigas |
|---|
 Gigas Have Two Lives |
| Lure the Gigas to the Bridge |
| Spam Shield Wall |
| Use Shield Bash to Stop the Spinning Attack |
Gigas Have Two Lives
The Gigas will have two lives, so once you deplete their first health bar, they'll cause a shockwave and charge it back up to full. Get some distance once you kill them to avoid getting pushed back and damaged.
Lure the Gigas to the Bridge
Lure both bosses to the nearby bridge to create a chokepoint for them. This lets you easily outmaneuver them and spam AoE abilities without fear of missing.
Spam Shield Wall
The Shield Wall is great for distracting the bosses since they'll continue attacking it while you can heal your units up or wait for abilities to go off cooldown. This is necessary to extend your survivability.
Use Shield Bash to Stop the Spinning Attack
Gigas will start charging up his ability when he pulls his battle axe back. Interrupt this with Shield Bash since the ability deals immense damage.
