Learn how to dominate DM-Malevolence in Unreal Tournament. Strategies for controlling key power-ups like Body Armour, UDamage, and Shock Rifle to defeat Loque and Reaper.
Walkthrough
- 1Map Overview: DM-Malevolence is a small facility designed for one-on-one combat. The frag limit is 20, with 2 opponents. The Shock Rifle is the best weapon here.
- 2Key Power-ups and Locations:
- Thigh Pads: Underneath the flak cannon ramp.
- 3Body Armour: In the corner at the minigun.
- 4UDamage: On a ledge at the lift.
- 5Controlling the Map:
- The Body Armour is crucial, located near health packs, vials, and the minigun. Control this area to deny opponents resources and gain an advantage. Vials can boost health above 100.
- 6The Minigun and Sniper Rifle ammo are located up the ramp next to the sniper rifle. Controlling these weapons denies them to Loque and Reaper.
- 7The Shock Rifle is located at the lift, a popular spot due to health and UDamage. It's the best weapon on the map, especially for z-axis shock-combos from the central platform.
- 8Use the central platform for overwatch, as shock ammo is located there.
- 9The flak cannon ramp area is a useful chokepoint for splash damage.
- 10Memorize all six health pack locations and retreat towards them when pressured.
- 11Opponent Strategy:
- Loque and Reaper are brutal, especially at higher difficulties.
- 12They will prioritize the minigun, armour, and health. Let them come to you and maintain a stack advantage.
- 13Be aware that the Enforcer, especially in Reaper's hands, acts like a miniature sniper rifle.
- 14Bots reach the UDamage by hammer-jumping from the health packs. Intercept them when they do this, as they will be low on health.
- 15Miscellaneous Tips:
- The map is no bigger than Codex.
- 16Practicing with the instagib mutator can improve aim and reaction time.
- 17The Rocket Launcher is generally not recommended due to its exposed location and slow reload time. Ammo packs are on the ledge beside the lift.
- 18You can reach the UDamage by timing a hammer-jump, alt-hammering, or ripper-jumping backwards off the ledge. Always take the UDamage when available and use it with the Minigun.
- 19You can hide in the roof of the map by hammer-jumping from various spots.
- 20You can reach the Thigh Pads by jumping onto boxes in the far corner, then to a higher one, and finally to the platform.
