As you can see, I died in the center vault, making an otherwise shameful defeat bittersweet - this was my first time in the vaults, and my second game for this version (the first ended terribly, somewhere at the beginning).
Before the vaults, the game was going perfectly smooth, with very few tight spots. But that wasn't much of a challenge, really - I lucked out on some of the best equipment around.

It says I found Necroarmor on dlvl5, but actually I found it in the Chained Court, much to my surprise and childlike cheers :)  It made the next few levels amusingly easy. But I wonder - when the self-repair (and the damage thus caused) factors in, is it really much better than red armor with a protection mod? There's the speed bonus, but still...
Trigun was found later. My only question about this one is "does it benefit from SoaG?". If so, well... Heh... Heheheh... Mmmm...
Blaster I found even later. Looks like the perfect sidearm, but with Trigun I never really had a use for it.

I actually never tried the vaults before because I must admit I'm a coward. I always think: "Hmm... I'm this far now, it would be very frustrating if I would die in the Vaults". And I am absolutely right. Because I looked at your mortem's screenshot and I saw loads of mancubi and revenants!
I will never be foolish enough to enter that level because I simply KNOW I'm too weak to do it XD

Actually, I gave it some thought later - I could have managed it, if I weren't so greedy. It was my assumption that I would find another unique in there, so I avoided the BFG. Very stupid move, because I had one turn to act before I died, and I'm quite certain the BFG's knockback would have given me another. Next time I'll probably avoid the center room entirely, and keep to the sides, or avoid the vaults entirely for the sake of a 100% kill rate.
