Rank requirements

Yes, the point is that they don't fit! So getting to a new rank level and seeing "destroy 100,000 barrels" as a requirement for the next level is surprising and maybe even rather funny.
--- Quote ---Kill 7 enemies with one shot: Oh, too easy! Even I can kill 7 enemies in a single shot! By the time I reach the level with the Lost Soul rush, I already have gotten the first BFG9K.

I had forgotten about the BFG. Maybe that should read "Kill 7 enemies with one non-BFG shot," or something like that. I was thinking about the difficulty of killing large number of enemies with a single shotgun or rocket launcher shot.
--- Quote ---Kill 1 Baron with your fists, kill 1 arch-vile with the combat knife, kill Cybie with the chainsaw: Now we're talking. Although, let me tell you, someone who has managed to kill the Angel of Death in the unholy cathedral will already have enough training to attain these challenges more or less easily. The Angel has a shit-ton of HP, more than Cybie, AND you have to take him out in melee in order to retrieve the Spear of Destiny. Therefore, we need some flavour of this requirement that proves to be a challenge, but still is out of the threshold of absurdity.

"Killing Cyberdemon with chainsaw," for example, asks the player to not only keep the chainsaw after getting the Spear of Destiny, something that players ordinarily wouldn't do, instead filling up their inventory with med packs and phase devices; it also requires the player to face the Cyberdemon WITHOUT using the Spear of Destiny, which is a significant thing to be asked to do, since the Spear is an excellent weapon and facing the Cyberdemon with a lesser weapon entails some real risk of getting killed at the end of the game, when you could have won easily (by using the Spear).
ZZ:
Arch-Vile rank:
Kill 1000 Arch-viles(on Ao100 best)
Kill 100 Arch-viles with combat knife( remember Butchers knife, LS, Dragonslayer are combat knives)
Kill 200 enemies, resurected by an Arch-vile.
Kill 100 enemies by a lever
Kill 100 enemies with an exploision(rocket or barrel)
Kill 100 enemies by enemies themselves!
What about this?
ParaSait:
Sounds good, I only have one question: Say that you have monster you killed, and it's resurrected by an arch-vile. You kill him for the second time, so it counts as a "Monster resurrected by arch vile kill". Now, if that monster would resurrect once again and you kill him for the third time, then does it still count? If so, it would be pretty easy =)
Visalos:
every so often, my DoomRL folder corrupts and i have to start over from the bloody zip file. guess i should start scumming player.dat or whichever file it is (i have been on the road, posting from public library computers, so i haven't played in months) Screw you, Vista.
Visalos:
thousand enemy deaths by lever. levers kill lots of monsters.
