[QUOTE="Slam23, post: 250247, member: 896"] Figuring out the best risk/reward shots on this table is really enjoyable, and it is also a very good nudge practice table, lots of outlane drain saves possible. This is my favorite strategy: - Plunge the A-rollover, this one is the hardest to get while in the actual game - Focus on shooting the GOR-GAR targets 4 times to get an extra ball lit and always shoot the targets from the right flipper. Use the left flipper for shots to the roll-over area or the 2-3-4 targets (but only after getting that EB) - Ricochet the ball from the lower GAR targets up to the GOR targets. If you aim slightly at the left side of targets, you get the best results and less wild balls or SDTM drains - Most often you can either catch a returning ball on the right flipper or do a dead-pass from the left to right, depending on the situation. Watch out for balls that run up the right inlane and trickle over to the outlane drain, you can nudge that ball "back" - The nicest thing possible with this is hitting GA-GO in one shot (aiming just between the GA targets), and then finishing R-R with another shot. That's right, with practice you can shoot all targets down with just 2 shots (on iOS anyway)! - Rinse and repeat, try to get the 3x bonus multiplier going. Shoot the upper "cave" when lit. Although going for the EB from the 1-2-3-4 targets is a bit risky in the beginning, if you happen to collect them often enough, you'll get there earlier on the next ball, and that makes them somewhat of a more viable option - There is also a strategy out there to repeatedly shoot the extra ball kicker for 15K a pop, but my results with that varied a lot, even with some risky returns and SDTM balls. And it is boring like hell.... :) - I usually play with no or low sound. On the one hand you have the grating voice of Gorgar, but on the other hand, the heartbeat thing inevitably will affect my gameplay :) There's not a lot more to this table and I concur with missing MB and changeable lanes, but it has something that keeps luring me back to it, especially when you get in the flow.
