[M|AoMs|84%|YAVP] Got a bit lucky on the first try...
« on: January 08, 2009, 17:41 »

Went with a glass cannon sniper build, EE, CE, SoaB, TH.

The beginning went pretty well, was down to the 40s in the arena before gaining exp for lvl3 and then it was easy. I entered the wall at 98% and tried to be careful, and only got hit twice which was a good tradeoff for lots of exp (was lvl5 at the time) and the normal goodies. I didn't get shot at all in the Halls of Carnage, and leveled up to 7 while in there so I managed to leave at 100%. All in all things were good, I had lots of ammo and rockets so lots of corner firing and shooting rockets kept me in pretty good shape.

On a cavernous level with A's I shot one down and ran down the stairs. Saw the entrance to the Vaults and skipped them. Had lots of fun on one level with an invincibility. I was doing fine, but on lvl 22 the starting room was small, and when I opened the door out I was greeted with fireblasts by 2 V's and some M's, didn't bother to count them but used one of my two homing phase devices. The stairs down was in a room full of cacos, one of which took a bite of me before I got down. On a mazy lvl23 I was down to 48%. Right away I was staring at a M, blasted him with rockets, then a B also got some rockets in his face and a A fell to one salvo of damage modded plasma. Then I saw the stairs down, had to take one step in lava to get down. Skipped 24 with the other homing phase device and entered Phobos Arena with 44%...

C was spawned pretty much in the middle. First I melted two plasma rifles on him. He retaliated with a rocket to my face. At 26% I used one of my two homing devices, which threw me not far away next to the down wall. Tried to get to a better position but C came into sight quickly, shot him with the BFG, C countered with a rocket. 2%. Fuck. My second homing device took me to the far right. I started shooting rockets blindly to the left. Don't know if I hit him. When C came into sight I shot him with the BFG, looked at him and it said "mortally wounded". After "morally wounded" there's still "almost dead", so I knew he might not die to the next shot but decided to shoot him and luckily it was enough.

After reading through my mortem while posting here I noticed that I had the Phaseshift boots, so I probably was faster than the Cyberdemon and I could have made that final fight a whole lot easier for myself but that's what you get for playing at 1 am :/

-- General ---------------------------------------------------

 Before him 47 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
 37 of those were killed.
 1 didn't read the thermonuclear bomb manual.
 And 2 couldn't handle the stress and committed a stupid suicide.

 Some rumours though, say that the Cyberdemon was killed already!
 Is he immortal? 7 souls claim to have killed him...
 7 killed the bastard and survived.

Okay, that's a story I'd like to hear.

Tormuse doesn't lose, he dies on purpose to lull the demons into a false sense of security.

Invincibility effect wore out after going down a level and arming a nuke :) I think it was a Ao100 run I was doing...

Cool, I didn't think it was viable to win AoMs with an offensive build.
