Special Ability – Warp: Teleports enemies into traps, making it great for funneling foes into high-damage zones.
Overdrive Skill – Mesmerize: Charms enemies, forcing them to fight for you temporarily.
How to Unlock Gabriella
Gabriella is unlocked by finding her hidden scepter in the Order Fortress. Once obtained, she becomes available for use.
2. New Maps – Classic & High-Intensity Challenges
The update adds six new maps, each with unique layouts and challenges:
Reimagined Classic Maps
Order Bathhouse – A returning map with an updated look and mechanics.
Unrestricted Section – A familiar battleground now adapted for Deathtrap’s style.
New High-Intensity Maps (Great for focused killzones)
Patio Library – A small, tight space ideal for quick trap setups.
Hedge Maze – Enemies weave through winding paths, giving you strategic choke points.
Courtyards – A mix of open areas and corridors, perfect for varied tactics.
Back Alley Sewers – A dark, enclosed setting that tests your trap efficiency.
3. New Traps – More Ways to Wipe Out Orcs
Three new traps expand your defensive arsenal:
Beehive Trap – Releases a swarm of stinging bees, continuously damaging enemies over time.
Orc Cannon – Shoots captured orcs at other enemies, dealing area damage.
Web Spinner – Suspends enemies in mid-air, slowing them and making them vulnerable to follow-up attacks.
These traps introduce new strategic possibilities, allowing you to experiment with different trap combos for maximum effectiveness.
