dont know if i spelled it right but ok frag and everyone who actually morphed 5 times in that level?...that would mean practically either using cards for help or mainly getting all the souls....great level though....has the dumb pit jumps....hehe...the enemies were cool with the armor...cool graphics and level but mannnnnn the last 3 times it was hard to get the card...sounds like its a chore to get these cards sometimes...u have to be real good to get them...i know it takes practice but almost dont with the game anyway...

Demon morph card makes Coloseum a breeze.

Sorry Complit, I don't have a video of Colloseum if that's what you're asking. I always broke down and used Dark Soul in that level, it's only $400 and lets you morph every 50 souls, which makes it much easier.

Part of my reasoning behing going ahead and using the card is that I always seemed to need some in Underground anyway, and at some point you find you're either using cards, or getting shot a lot.

Not using the cards is challenging, and in some cases very noteworthy, but using them also adds to the variety of the game and makes for more visual effects in the videos.

I've never really tried to achieve the card objective in that level without using a card, except for the first time through, which obviously is the worst possible time to try it, as you're learning the map.

The thing is, I got in the habit of making no scratch videos, and they don't seem to be as thrilling unless it's done without using cards. NO scratch AND no cards is difficult in Colloseum, as the monsters swarm you in tight spaces.

I feel it could be done, especially with proper weapon management and using Nightmare rahter than Trauma to utilize quicksaves. I'm working on other games in making videos lately though.

hmmmm i got through most of the level without no cards....i just used the barrels to my advantage and u can kill a lot by getting them right near the barrels and blowing the barrels up....cool affect....this levels much easier then the last 1 but im guessin in nightmare level its harder....

LOL, no, I'm not talking about just getting through the level with no cards, I mean getting the CARD using no cards.

The level itself is easy to beat, it's the card objective that gets tough without using cards, though I think it can be done, but you'd take more damage picking up souls.
