-- General ---------------------------------------------------
Before him 233 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
206 of those were killed.
4 of those were killed by something unknown.
2 didn't read the thermonuclear bomb manual.
And 11 couldn't handle the stress and committed a stupid suicide.
Some rumours though, say that the Cyberdemon was killed already!
Is he immortal? 10 souls claim to have killed him...
2 sacrificed itself for the good of mankind.
7 killed the bastard and survived.
1 showed that it can outsmart hell itself.
--------------------------------------------------------------
* Just testing out shotties. It turns out HNTR is still pretty damn easy without using anything other than shotties.
** I sure do love 0.44 movespeed without armor and with running on
*** I found that red armor was making me move too slow. I had 3 TaN anyway, so this was a decent tradeoff.
**** AH HAH HAH HAH HAH HAAAAAAAAAAAAH
***** Just in case things got ugly.
*6 If I found a few more mods, this thing would've been my new main weapon. The Jackhammer only slightly outclassed it.
*7 Is it me, or does a pretty pimped out doubleshotty make this challenge trivial? I used 4 rockets to blast through the wall (The only ones I had) and then just pwned them with my super duper doubleshotty.
*8 I never ever dodged a reverant rocket. Never ever. I had to tank them, and it hurt.
I didn't do hell's arena due to lol no chaingun allowed
I didn't do the mort because doing that would require A. Massive luck and B. Me to use my BFG rather than my Jackhammer
Damn it I didn't find any stairs to the armory. That's just mean, Kornel.
Skipped lava pits. Put a better reward in it or I wont bring down Envirosuit packs for you.
Never saw Vaults and it would ruin my YAAM.
Weapon timeline:
Fists (That's right, I dropped the pistol. My character cares not for non-shotgun weapons): Level 1
Shotgun: Level 1
Combat Shotgun: Level 3
Doubleshotty: Level 5 (Yaaaaaaaaay)
ADVANCED doubleshotty: Level 7 (LOLWUT)
ADV. Doubleshotty with 2 speed mods: Level 8 (AAAAAAH HAH HAH HAAAAAAH)
Jackhammer: Level 19
In short, a stupidly lucky but reasonably skilled shotgun user manages to find better shotty after better shotty until the amount of dakka exceeds that of every ork army in the world and he blows up the Phobos base in a thermonuclear AWESOME
