Hey, I recently started playing Brütal Legend for the first time, having a lot of fun. However, I’m having a little trouble with the base combat.

I’m currently in a quest where I’m supposed to ambush some enemies with a bunch of headbangers, razor girls and a thunder hog(?). I’ve tried it a few times, but I keep failing and I’m not sure how to best approach the combat. I can do the face melt solo or fight with my axe or guitar. I can double team with one of the characters who is with me to deal even more damage, I can start a moshpit or send the headbangers to a specific target. I’ve tried different approaches, but my units keep dying.

I find it hard to judge what’s working better and what isn’t. Doesn’t help that I find it hard to distinguish between friend and foe and keep a good overview of the battlefield itself.

Any tips on how to best the combat?

    I won’t lie despite the game having a wonderful world and amazing characters I didn’t LOVE actually playing it. The RTS part of the game I found very very frustrating. For me it was A LOT of trial and error. You have to treat the combat in the “missions” like an RTS. Build up your units and go after their “buildings”

    For combat it self you can fight random things in the world which should help you nail down the rolling combat. I played on X360 back in the day so I don’t know how the experience is on PC.

    This wasn’t by chance at all inspired by the Guess the game posts was it ?
