How to play final arena.

As you know, in the original zombie mode, the last map added to it is final arena.

A map with six ( 6 ) waves only ,seems short compared to other zombie mode map with 30 waves,but unlike the other maps,it has 6 bosses with fixed tactics they do in every game.

So let's talk about those tactics and how we can beat it at hard level.

Please note that:

Easy : four ( 4 ) waves plus bonus wave , one of the main five bosses won't appear and it is chosen randomly.

Normal : Five ( 5 ) waves plus bonus wave , all the main bosses will appear , but their order will be in random.

Hard : six ( 6 ) waves plus bonus wave , all the main bosses will appear , and in addition , the war bear will appear for more additional rewards.

That was a long introduction , let's hop to it.

Every boss has two different tactics ( exclude the war bear )  , tactic changes after the health points go pass 50%

So let's start with the first boss:

1-The Engineer:

So at the start he comes with a body armor and a helmet , both of then can be destroyed by shooting it for a little bit , let's say almost 10 seconds.

Now to the tactic:

Above 50%

He targets 1 player and keeps walking towards him/her , his speed is almost equal to your speed .

He fires fire balls from his canons to the sky and they drop to the group causing burns ,stepping in these burns deal damage and slow down the players , it disappear after a while , he fires 1 or 2 balls.

If many players get close to him , he starts preparing to do a spin attack , short range deal damage to all surroundings.

Tip: if he is near you while it , press "F" to counter it and take no damage.

Below 50%

Same tactic above plus:

Fire balls increase to 3-4 balls and his attack speed increase.

He start to call 1 name from the players dashes to him/her dealing damage on touch , To avoid the damage Press "F" and then dash away "Shift"

2-Scorpion:

He starts with weapon on his tail that fires poisons in a player's location and stick to the ground for a while , dealing damage.

The tail can be destroy by shooting it,it might take long time to destroy about 10 to 20 seconds.

Above 50%

It targets one player and keep running towards him/her and attacks with is claw, once the animation starts , it damage the player , it moves faster than the normal player , so running from it alone isn't a very good idea.

Once every while , it tries to capture one player and deal continues damage to him/her .

Tip: If it is going after you ,it is good to press "F" before it touches you to prevent any kind of damage for 1 to 2 seconds.

Below 50%

Same tactic above plus:

It starts leaving a trail of poison on the ground , dealing damage to the players and slowing them down , it disappear after a while.

Below 20%

It will ask his minions for help , healing his health points after they reach.

Tip: When it calls for his minions , fast throw the bombs appearing on the edges on the scorpion itself , it will deal many damage enough to kill him.

3-Assassin:

Above 50%

She targets one player and tries to attack him/her , her speed is faster than the normal player.

She calls the name of one player and teleport to him/her and attack , to avoid taking damage , press "F" before she finishes the move.

When she is damaged , she disappear and starts running around to heal some of her health points , when she does that , you can see her if you focused , attacking her will remove the invisibility , but will make her charge to attack a player.

She might start a spin attack , moving fast to a random player , dealing damage , stays for 1 second then go to another player , to stop her from going to other , attack her by using "F" , if you want to take no damage from this attack , attack her using "F" before she starts moving.

Below 50%

She enters a rage mode , preforming attacks faster, increase movement speed and damage dealt

Pro tip: it is best to keep her standing in one place and keep spinning around her , when she tries to hit you , you would be already out of the way of the attack and close enough to deal a kick.

4-Mincer:

Starts with three devices , each device give a shield to the boss , destroying all three lift the shield up

Note: the shield decreases the damage only , doesn't prevent it.

Above 50%

He will keep standing in middle , and will only do 2 moves , each one after the other.

1st move: He will target 3 players and fire a laser , deals damage , to escape it just simply dash around.

2nd move: He will call a bolt of lighting and then pass it to the ground , dealing high damage , to prevent it ,  you will have to jump before he hit the ground.

Below 50%

He goes to the ground and starts moving towards a random player , with spikes around him , it deals damage on touch once , then he goes to another player.

Tip: When he goes to ground use the freezing Bazooka wisely , don't fire all at once , wait so he stays slow until he dies.

5-Phoenix: 

It keeps flying over the arena , S it might take longer to kill it because of the accuracy of you weapon.

Above 50%

It fires some of its feathers and explodes after a while dealing damage.

It calls out a random player , then breathes fire at him/her , to avoid it , keep dashing away from BUT DO NOT RUN INTO YOUR TEAM SO THEY DO NOT GET DAMAGED.

Below 50%

It move faster and won't be slowed by slowing beam.

It calls out tornadoes pulling them to the air and deal damage to him , to avoid the damage , Press"F" before falling.

Tip: use the sound to predict the places of the tornadoes and avoid them.

And finally ,
6-The War Bear:

This boss has so many tactics with so many ways of damaging the players.

He has a helmet that can be destroyed.

He has three weapons that can be destroyed , each weapon has its own time to start.

1st weapon: Canon , when someone is targeted by it , it take exactly 1 second to hit him/her.

To avoid the damage , you need to be quick and press "F" as it says your name.

2nd weapon: Machine gun , it fires continues bullets to the named target , dealing damage , the hardest move to avoid.

To avoid keep dashing away and fast , as soon as possible.

3rd weapon: Rocket Launcher , it fires rockets to the sky and hit the marked areas , but for all the time it take to fire it , the war bear keeps standing and vulnerable to all attacks.

When a weapon or 2 are destroyed , the chains holding him starts to break and it breaks free.

After it breaks free , it jumps to the furthest player and deal damage to him/her.

If you are so close , it will try to hit you with its claws.

Tip: it is better to destroy the Machine Gun first , then go for the canon , it is best to leave the rocket launcher since it keep it vulnerable.

Note: Don't go too close to this boss at first because the chains deal damage around the boss.

Boss Revival

A very rare occasion , When the boss is killed , it respawns again with a slight of health points , it have no weapons , but it has more movement speed.

After killing it you will earn 2xclear instead of one.
