Walkthrough for the Remains of the Dark Age mission in Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II. Includes tips for defeating the Deff Dread, Lictor boss, and completing optional objectives.
Walkthrough
- 1Follow the path until you encounter a Deff Dread Ork. Use melta-bombs and keep moving while attacking to defeat it.
- 2Proceed to the beacon. Before capturing it, use Orbital Bombardment on the large Ork battle to the left to eliminate most enemies.
- 3Capture the beacon and proceed to find the power cell. You will have a choice of three locations; the middle one contains the power cell. It is recommended to defeat all enemies in the area to gain experience for the next mission. Be aware of Stormboys dropping in.
- 4Once the power cell is obtained, return it to power the array.
- 5To complete the optional objective and fight the Lictor, head northeast and kill the Orks. Activate the generator to open the wall.
- 6Before climbing the steps to the Lictor's area, use Orbital Bombardment or other explosives on the ruins to destroy enemy cover.
- 7Head up the steps. The Lictor is an easy boss with low health, but it can hide in bushes to heal.
- 8After damaging the Lictor by about a third, it will attempt to heal. Use grenades, the Dreadnought's ranged attack, or other explosives to destroy all nearby bushes, preventing its healing. Continue attacking to defeat it.
Tips
- Recommended units: Thaddeus and the Dreadnought. Avitus in Terminator armor can be used but may be less effective.
- Recommended equipment: Grenades, Orbital Strikes, and Melta-bombs.
- Destroying bushes is crucial for preventing the Lictor from healing during the boss fight.
- Clearing all enemies, even when not required for the main objective, is beneficial for leveling up your units.
