I will say that swinging around a large pick axe in one hand and a large hammer in the other is rather satisfying as well. However, I quickly got sick of having random barrels explode in my face when attempting to break them, so I went and equipped a gun in my secondary weapon set. I found myself shooting at barrels as well as enemies. While this made sense strategically, it just didn’t feel right using a ranged weapon with a melee class. Swarmed with enemies, I was able to put my dual-wielding and area of effect attacks to good use. I defeated Brink again and returned to town via the first waypoint.

I hopped on to my Vanquisher and found out I had stopped just before a boss fight, the Overseer. I defeated the Overseer and received the ‘A Lich to Scratch’ achievement. The second waypoint was activated, so I decided to call it a night.

I started as the Vanquisher class wielding a bow and quickly found myself equipped with dual pistols. It’s great mindless fun, especially for only $4.99! I found myself playing much longer than planned, planning to stop when finished clearing the level, only to find myself clearing the next and the next.
