Rating would be 4/5, but the heavy reliance on kreds or hours of waiting to advance knocks it down to 3, and the constant waiting for the server destroys another star.
I've heard people say you can't beat the game without the glitch, and then squishybrik says you can't get out of zone 3 as a guardian.......I beat the final boss of zone 4 as a guardian without the glitch.......and I didn't know what speed did until someone told me why I kept missing Sinjid.
like a few people before me, I agree that Fuel of War would be difficult to win without 10,000,000 points......I just completed the first 4 battles, and I'm already over 1,000,000
I had problems with the Defender. My speed boost wouldn't work, so I couldn't run away from fights, and my weapons wouldn't lock on, so I couldn't fight back. I was an easy target.
After killing over 1000 things including the red thing that looked different from the other red things (I'm assuming that was the boss) on level 3, I got bored and left to get my laundry and let myself die. 15 points is not worth the wasted time.
I've played this game somewhere else before (or something exactly like it) and there, when you won career mode, you unlocked a weapon that would kill anything with one shot. You could win the final battle with a team weight of around 50 with that.
@Nicmic: to make a paladin, you have to go to skills, and choose Honour & Valour and Chivalry, then survive to get 300g (or 275g w/Persuader or 250g w/Manipulator)
