Beating Angel of Death

(1/1)

funkytrix:
Has anyone beaten AoD?

I've tried 3 times and every time with a melee oriented fighter. Once I just nuked the damn place in my frustration.

My example run:

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

 Before him 33 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
 24 of those were killed.
 1 didn't read the thermonuclear bomb manual.
 And 4 couldn't handle the stress and committed a stupid suicide.

 Some rumours though, say that the Cyberdemon was killed already!
 Is he immortal? 4 souls claim to have killed him...
 4 killed the bastard and survived.

Melon:
Spoiler (click to show/hide) Badass? Use ironman instead, because whatever happens, your health will go bellow zero, thanks to lost souls or angel of death himself. And as for pinkies, if you are fast enough (phaseshift boots/armour, hellrunner) you can lure them and make them take a lava bath (they are stupid...)

The point is to trigger berserk while killing demons and lost souls (better to do it one-by-one by opening only one door and standing right behind that opening). If you are not berserking - you may need too many meds to kill him - better even not to try in this case. But if you are berserking - then everything's fine and 1-2 meds will be enough for fight. Also, as i remember, Brute has 3 levels, so take them all because with higher damage you have better chance to trigger berserk mode.
