So, inspired by
LuckyDee's thread, I started up this game again and tried to get Marksman Angelic. After a few tries, I played this game, my best ever attempt at this challenge, which would have been successful if not for some misguided decisions at the end...
My goal was to get Cateye trait to help remove most of the drawback of the Darkness challenge and this was the first game I successfully got that trait. It should have been relatively easy after that, especially after conquering the armoury and getting tac boots and powered red armour, but then I decided to give the Containment Area a try, even though I wasn't really equipped to deal with it. Really, the only reason I decided to go in there at all was that I had visited every special level up 'til that point, and I figured I could probably get Hunter Diamond too if I went to all of them. I only had one phase device, but I figured that since I had Dodgemaster and high movement speed, I could probably repeatedly dodge shots from the Barons until they blew up the wall. A risky strategy, but I thought I could pull it off. (I guess not) Unfortunately, when the Barons spawned, four of them were really close to me and with the very little cover I had, I was taking a pounding. Very soon, there was a point where I was both low on armour and health and had to make the dreaded decision about switching armour to save my powered armour, or using a med pack to save my life. I did the latter and lost my powered armour, and that's the moment when I knew the game was lost. I fought right up 'til the end, though, and even took out one of the Arch-Viles, but I didn't really stand a chance. :(
A couple other notes: I hadn't decided yet what to do with that tech-modded pistol, turn it into an energy pistol, demolition pistol, or stormbolter. I had most of the mods for each.
The game was 23 hours because I left it on overnight and while I was at work.
