Scoring an Ultimate Jackpot requires two shots within 5 seconds to the same ramp from an upper flipper. This is not so easy to accomplish, but starting multiball is easy so you have lots of attempts. The other challenging goal is earning the 20M Abyss award, simply because hitting the Abyss hole can be difficult. Fortunately, I demonstrate a method for being able to do this somewhat consistently.<hr /></p> <p style="margin-left: 20px"><em><strong>Score a 20M Abyss Award</strong></em></p> <p style="margin-left: 20px"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXburi7NRHk" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXburi7NRHk</a></p> <p style="margin-left: 20px"><em><strong>Score an Ultimate Jackpot</strong></em></p> <p style="margin-left: 20px"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Iw23HOrAIs" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Iw23HOrAIs</a></p><p></p><p>8. <strong>Swords of Fury</strong> (Williams) - <span style="color: #DAA520">Difficulty: 6</span><p style="margin-left: 20px">The difficulty on this table comes from the upper playfield requirements. Earning a MAGIC Special requires you to clear the upper playfield targets 7 times to light special.

It's completely possible to earn this one without even trying with some lucky timing, but I had not such luck when I accomplished it. I'm not sure why I didn't save video of this one, but it would be of little help anyway.

Scoring a 300M Missy Jackpot is basically the same as the Davros Jackpot on the original Dr. Who table, but harder! Especially since you are guessing which Missy Jackpot you are on (if you happen to understand the strange rules about Jackpot progression, and regression due to ball loss, etc...) and the multiplier indicator is difficult to visualize quickly. Good luck with this one.
