I build the 2 bench, but I forgot my hammer for the AOE, so I stop recording then started again after getting it. This is probably my 12th fortress, I have honestly lost count. Took me around 7 minutes to clear all the mobs. Enjoy :)
Very good demonstration of using new and previous biome weapons effectively. Love the simplicity of tactics to reduce the new charred mobs. :) Been working on learning how to master the Ashlands solo as well and finding some of the same items like the Mistwalker spirit / frost damage really helps. I'm going to pull back out my Demolisher - you really showed how this is still a very good AOE weapon. Many thanks!!
Thank you very much! I have tried the new melee weapon, but except in certain specific situation I find the Mistwalker to be the best choice for my play style. Can't live without the CC from frost dmg.
Thanks for the video. Just finished Mistlands (FINALLY, I can see more than 2 feet ahead of me!). I want to take over a charred fortress to make my base, so this gives me an idea of what I'm up against. Awesome job!
I dug out the interior as deep as it would go then made that my ashhome. Can make quite a nice large base which is finally safe. A Morgan took issue with the first base I attempted to make, got trapped inside and proceeded to demolish the lot while I was dealing with everything else.
Uh, don't you have to ram it anyways at the middle tower? I guess outer wall breach solo makes more sense for magic users with aoe. Kudos for solo without skellies though rough biome
About to do my 1st fortress. I watched a video just now, from a month ago showing can't pickaxe under fortress wall but can under central tower wall. i also read something about being careful when breaching central tower wall not to break something in there. So I'm thinking over going over the outer, and under the inner.
@@Nmag27 hi, I'm sure you wouldve found out by now, but for other comment-scrollers (like myself), the digging under has been patched out. Can no longer pickaxe to get under the inner door of the fortress. :(
floor pieces is smart. i copied threadmenace and used wood ladders but the spikes on the top of the wall kept knocking me off. i'll try this approach in the future
In my first clear I went ahead and rammed the shit out of the front door, equipped my trusty frostner and prepared myself to go to valhalla there where double the enemies of the one you cleared and I almost shat my pants lol Ended up dying once. Those warlocks are some tough bastards when not alone
@@Chanmokeii492 for real man, I got almost instantly killed because there was so many mobs and got stuck, even with bonemass active 🥴 Ashlands are something else.
