 134 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
 116 of those were killed.
 1 didn't read the thermonuclear bomb manual.
 And 11 couldn't handle the stress and committed a stupid suicide.

 6 souls destroyed the Mastermind...
 5 killed the bitch and survived.
 1 showed that it can outsmart Hell itself.

--------------------------------------------------------------

I keep forgetting to keep the chainsaw for later.
I was so lucky with the RNG.

How is the class in my opinion?
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I didn't expect to get both pieces of Phase Shift gear.
I would have kept the nuke!

It's certainly not a class for an Ao100 game, you'd burn through too much ammo.

As for regular games?

Well, it's certainly a lot more effective then I assessed it. I didn't see that it didn't block shottyman which I thought would have been a given because that essentially turns it into Gun Kata 2.0 for shotguns.

You pass up TaN, SoB, and Whizkid.

Whizkid is a good pick if you have lots of perks - such as on a 100% UV/N! game. You also kinda need to be kinda lucky for it to pay off, so it's not really a good or a bad block, just kinda neutral.

Passing up SoB on shotguns isn't really a big deal, it'd just mitigate one point of armor at most.

Passing up TaN would be more of a tossup but you have Dodgemaster. Having badass for those revs and mancubuses would have been great but hopefully you can just corner shoot them.

So you don't really lose too much if you're playing it as a shotgun build.

As for the master trait itself? I think that the strength is also the weakness. You need to be REALLY careful with your movement - Say that you spawn next to an imp and a barrel (It's happened to me before!) You shoot the imp, barrel explodes, you die. Having Juggler does help but you would need to keep an empty hand or a chainsaw or something in that situation - lest you shoot the monster next to you with that handy dandy rocket launcher.

You basically need to be very aware of the situation.

Does that mean it's a bad build? No, that's just my critique of it, and i'm actually going to give it a shot right now.

Well done on the run by the way.

I believe you only shoot while running, so that spawning situation wouldn't happen, and you wouldn't burn through ammo as badly as you'd think if you know when to run.

Only while running? Well, that kind of takes the fun out of it. >_<

Well, it doubles your running time so... But I get the feeling you mean the extra danger that having it ALWAYS firing might entail. You seem to enjoy them extra challenges. :P

I think I'm too new to DoomRL to know who 2dev is.

On topic, just tried out Gunrunner and managed to nab Cyberdemon's head badge and Anomaly gold or w/e.

No damage OP.

Except when spiders with plasma rifles and Urgots with missile launchers find you. :<

Everything you'd ever want to know about 2Dev, in a nutshell

Also holy shit dude, you had the luxury of getting both pieces of the Phaseshift armor on a standard run. I'm jelly.

Yep, only sexy revenants and tri-rocket sluts got me.

Not sure about the spiders, one-one no damage... Too elite! :D
Unless they surrounded me. Spider lair...

Forgot to mention, int2 adds that extra bit of survivability.

Lucky with this one, will try UV and/or Ao100 but I doubt my ammo reserves will last since sergeants are promoted.
Crossed fingers for like... 10 Nanopacks in Ao100.
