AoB.. I can't do it

Oh, yeah, i forgot the favorite enemy "shoot-him-with-the-always-hit-shotgun-the-very-moment-he-opens-that-door" trick. This is seriously annoying...you just cant open the door and get a look inside, you get shot the very moment you open it. Naturally, there always will be between two and ninety barrels right beside you...

Enemies MUST give you at least one turn after opening doors, otherwise it really feels like a cheap disadvantage to you. I mean, come on, i swear they couldnt see me through that door, do they shoot in my general direction ?

Still trying to beat this impossible challenge, and...is it me, or this tip is not exactly logical ? Do you really want him to actually have MORE shots at you, since you wont be running at him ? I assume here that "running" actually increases your speed ? He'll hit you anyway, so whats the difference ?

Obviously, if you have a surplus of sources of 'running' (i.e., one enemy is left on the level, there are four health globes, and you're at full health), then it's better to run than not to run. But in general, running serves better against enemies that can miss, as when you run, they often will. Combat versus demons and imps particularly benefits from this tactic.

As for sergeants, go to the edge of their vision-field. Drop some ammo. Move a few squares away. Drop more ammo. Repeat until they're at a door or a corner or some other place where you can 'ambush' them and beat them to death without getting a shotgun in the face.

I can't say whether my advice is logical or not, but it works for me.

And I do agree with you about the 'ignore potential kills' advice - bad move, in my opinion. You don't necessarily have to aim for 100%, but it is attainable.

I'm experiencing a similar problem now with 0.9.8.9. Back in 0.9.8.8 I could go as far as lv12 on Medium, but now I can't get to Chained Court, even though I'm running, trying different strategies or starting traits...
