Area
Edit
The Angelic Ruins has a terrain similar to The Descent, there are a lot of blocks in which to gain cover, there is elevated ground to the northeast (more east) from the spawn point and close to the very middle of the arena.
Enemy Type
Edit
The Angelic Ruins spawns Human (Lance and Bandit) and Guardian type enemy. It doesn't spawn Skag varieties. The Angelic Ruins enemy setting give Sirens and Hunters a better role to play, since Sirens specify in elemental skills, and Hunters are able to ignore the ever-so-hard-wear-off sheilds of the Guardians
Strategy
Edit
Although a Hunter's first tactic would be to immediately gain higher ground to snipe off the enemies, this may not be the best idea. Because this area does not have a lot of dependable cover, this approach tends to leave players in dangerous situations. A Hunter's best bet would be to walk around and snipe the enemies and work your way towards the stage where there's alot of cover. Doing so will give you a great view of the enemies close to the middle area and south area. This place is also a great place to be during the boss wave since there you're close to the boss and given great cover.
It is possible to use the two elevated platforms in the northern recessed area (ramp access) as sniping platforms although enemies do have a tendency to spawn between the platforms giving them a clean shot at the player(s). In addition, horde waves make this approach dangerous as psychos/lunatics can swarm up the ramps and quickly swamp players.
An easy and less long way to do this (larger challenge) would be to go on splitscreen create a low level character and place him as host, then have the second player go on as your real character, it is near impossible to die and it's easy achievements/trophies.
One option in split screen is to start with 2 players, then have one hide while the other goes to the penalty box and fire upon any and all opponents they can see.
Trivia
Edit
- There is an inaccessible munitions vendor located behind a pillar outside of the map's boundaries.
