Dave's Special

by David

T5CD2

AuthorBased on Dave's Double with some extra enemies.

Chart editorA hard difficulty to categorize due to the high amount of enemies that act as spawners for other enemies: if your team is good you will kill the spawners before they become a problem and the difficulty will feel closer to T4; on the other hand, if the team starts to lag behind in killing power the enemies will accumulate really quick and the mission will spiral out of control. It is the first difficulty from David to make use of MEV and DEA, and it is worth playing just because of the original and quite unique enemy designs it contains. The author has a PDF document explaining all the new enemies in the linked discord post.

About tier T5

Another step-up from the previous tier, the difficulties listed here are fairly hard on average, most make use of MEV and DEA to add many new disruptor enemies and have very strict pacing requirements.
