[M|95%|YASD] - My first "good" run

<< < (2/2)

oohhboy:
Hells Arena is pretty much a must including Ultra Violence. The big thing is that it nets you a RL early and you gain a LVL a little quicker. With the RL you can bust open Chained Court for the extra items which are sometimes unique.

The Wall will get you killed unless your ready. Multiple large med packs and armor are a must. Bring multiple weapons. Have chain, plasma, RL at least so instead of reloading, just keep shooting especially if you have juggler. If you have a unique like Missile Launcher or Jackhammer it is a lot easier. BFG if you have it, but it trashes your cover by blowing away too much of the wall. On UV, be prepared to kill the same guy 3 times as the Viles will make any advance as bloody as they can. If your empty use run and take cover to reload. Try not to reload in the open. If you see a vile gun for him. On anything lower than UV there isn't any viles. As nice as the backpack is, you don't need it to win.

I avoid the Mortuary as the reward is nowhere near the trouble you have to deal with. If you want a BFG, you can get one in the Halls of Carnage or sometimes Hell's Armory. You should run both those since they are relatively easy and for most part you can control the engagement. The Lava pit is surprisingly easy on UV if you use a weapon with knock back you just burn the Revants. You must have 2 environment suits though.

Yeah, I always go through chained court, since not only is it easy EXP, but I get a free Health Refill when I'm done with the Berserk packs. I sort of have a plan for the wall, since the small narrow opening forces the hell barons/Hell Knights to get close in order to LoS me, it puts them right at the brunt of the double shotty, which should wipe them out very quickly, or if they don't come near, I can peck them off from a distance with the RL, and I'll have the other side of the wall to run away and patch up if I take too much damage.

Made another Shottyman today named BLU Scout. Died on floor 1 when an imp shot a fireball at me while I was right next to an Acid barrel. I'm starting to hate those things. *headdesk*

rekenne:
I do Hell's Arena 100% of the time and never leave early. The resource gain for completing it is just too good. If you don't pull it off, well, you only wasted 5 minutes.

Also, in Chained Court, if you use the Berserk Packs right, you don't even need the RL to get to the goodies. The RL would just blow most of them up anyway, wouldn't it?

Lowtierhero:
oh, no, when I said camping out in the narrow hallway for hell knights/hell barons, I meant The Wall. I wouldn't even have an RL by Chained Court time. :V
