After playing lots of AoB challenges on Hard and UV unsuccessfully, I had to play another medium game to remind me just how easy it was. I must say that this was probably the easiest game I ever had of any kind. Take a look at my inventory.

6 hits to kill the Angel of Death with the chainsaw. 4 hits with the Ultimate Weapon of Spoiliness to kill the CD.

I had forgotten just how powerful and fast you get when the berserker trait kicks in. I was worried about the arach caves, but when you can 1-shot Arachs and you have super speed, they are just loads of free experience and I actually looked forward to them. Even the Mortuary was a breeze. I could have stayed in there and farmed XP if I really wanted to, but I already had pretty much every skill I wanted.

I was hoping to get some more special levels (particularly the City of Skulls) to see how I would have done, but the only ones that showed up were the Wall which you can't do in AoB, and the Halls of Carnage, which is full of sergeants and you can only clear half so it wasn't worth it. I was glad to see the Mortuary, though.

My mortem died here (it crashes every time).

And you even have some AA left on you :P
Sweet - nicely done ^^

[Styro]

Thanks!

I kept my AA nice for my meeting with CD. I like to save it to wear for special occasions. :)

[Silencexy]

aah, I just realized that I should 'l'ook at red stairs, so to avoid The Wall especially on EoB

agreed, once you get to a certain point the AoB really turns into a Nightmare for monstres

how did you get to level 10? did some XP-farming after all, right? (10arch-viles)
and an awfully large number of arachs too

[TFoN]

There is no way short of N!diff to farm XP from AVs, and with a few cave levels and those 10 AVs, there's no need to intentionally farm Arachs to kill 46 of them. Just some luck :)


The Wall actually saved my life a few times, even when I didn't have access to an RL. It allowed me to avoid death on my way to the other stairwell.

[Styro]

Yes, the 10 levels were mostly from piles of Arachs in caves.

What I meant about farming XP from AVs was that you get XP for killing anything they raise, so if I kill a Baron or Arach and an AV raises it, I can kill it again and regain the experience. Since I already had all the melee perks I wanted, though, it wasn't worth the time.
