Build used is shown on the top right hand corner of the screen and at the end of the video.

Also, I thought I crashed near the end of the video(@26:07 and my mic started to not register for a bit when I start pressing push to talk) but, that was just major lag. The host I played with kinda had laggy internet that got worse off-camera.

Anyways, Cataclysm is a new difficulty mode that was added on August 13th, 2019. It is the 5th difficulty mode that can be only unlocked after completing the 4 Helmgart lord missions(The War Camp, Into the Nest, Halescrouge, and Skittergate) on the Legend difficulty. Cataclysm makes specials and enemies of all type spawn more often than the Legend difficulty as well as add a unique twist to all of the maps finale events. For example, Righteous Stand finale event allows a Chaos Spawn to arrive at the temple of Sigmar.

All in all, Cataclysm is designed for players who want a harder challenge higher than what Legend can offer. Unfortunately, some careers (like Bounty Hunter, Mercenary, Shade, Waystalker, and Ironbreaker) can perform pretty well on Cataclysm than other careers(like Battle Wizard, Huntsman, Ranger Veteran). Luckily, the tier 6 talents for all 15 careers(as well as the reworked talents in general) can help with dealing with the ridiculously strong enemies on Cataclysm.

Shade is still a pretty strong class despite some harsh nerfs she got toward her duration of her ult(I think it last way longer before than now) and no longer is able to carry a 30% cooldown reduction to her ult. I could've used the Dual Daggers in this video but, I personally much rather use Sword and Dagger to approach hordes with than using Dual Daggers(which Dual Daggers are mainly good for dealing high amounts of boss damage). This is my first map I ever completed on Cataclysm. I will try to switch to different careers to see which other good playstyles I can try. Some of the careers(like Mercenary, Slayer, and Witch Hunter Captain) I need to relearn how to play as because their talents changed drastically between 1.6 and 2.0.

The main issue I have with Cataclysm is that the Beastmen hordes tend to spawn more often than any other type of horde in the game(Beastmen are unlocked after completing the Dark Omens map for the first time). Maybe I'll find more issues with Cataclysm when I play more maps on that difficulty mode later down the road.
