Holy crap, I never realized how long these maps can get at times.

I'll be doing the first 15 levels of the main game without any DLC perk, weapons or anything. After that it's fair game.
_______________________________________________________

Primary weapon: Assault Rifle (Rank 20, Skye's main weapon)
Secondary weapon: ETK-Tesla Prototype (Rank 8)

Perks:
Corpse Explosion (Rank 7)
Shocking Revelation (Rank 12)
Slowing Presence (Rank 13)

Towers used:
AR-Mine Dispenser (Rank 5)
Focus (Rank 15)

I'm satisfied with this result. While far from perfect, my previous best run (which I considered great) ended with the northern core at 1505 and the southern core at 3765. This run on Abandoned Lab with no DLC equipment ended being better than many others with DLC like the one with Haigen.

I wanted to go with Voltaic Hand Cannon to deal with Waves 5 and 6 better, but the sheer amount of Runners here forced me to pick the ETK-Tesla lest I wasted mines on those buggers.

Anyway, this level is scary, very scary and the general consensus is that is the hardest level of the main campaign, even harder than Train Station, Roadworks, The Depths or The End.

This is the map that made me rage quit this game for months, I'm not joking. I thought this thing was unbeatable on Solo 5 Feats of Strength without DLCs for a long time.

Abandoned Lab is a very difficult map due to Wave 5 and 6 having WAY too much stuff for you to handle on your own and if you focus your defenses on the north core the south will almost certainly get destroyed by Wave 7 with its 25 Walkers and Wave 8 with the Super Heavy. So, pick your poison.

I had to use AR-Mines with some creativity again here to help protect the southern core better. On Wave 7 a Walker went to beat a part of the Core the Focus didn't cover which something that almost never happens, but hey, (bad) new shit tends to happen when you're recording.
