I'd been having a lot of trouble with this Angel, even once I get past my usual bottleneck of Hell's Arena, going for MAD.  I decided to try going for Vampyre instead, since it would be much needed healing.  That proved to be quite useful.  Interestingly, it seems like one could get both Vampyre and MAD - I considered doing that but wasn't sure if I'd reach level 11, and Ironman x3 was a sure thing.

I annihilated Hellgate with rockets, and ran into the Unholy Cathedral.  The increased knowledge about berserk bug helped - when I went berserk off a killing stroke on a demon, I closed the door and waited it out; when I berserked of a non-killing stroke I cleared the rest (triggering berserker at least once more) and ran to the Angel.  finding the Jackhammer a bit after that was quite nice, I didn't think I liked it at first (vs the assault shotgun) but then I saw the knockback.  That made me go for the mortuary (primarily wanted the power mod for onyx armor).  while it was useful, reloading is still quite slow (if only I'd gone for shottyman instead of Ironman) so I had to BFG more than I'd like, destroying the ammo drops.  stilll, I had lots of shells anyway and a lot of enemies were dealt with via the Lance.

I also found the Dragonslayer, but couldn't wield it.  There was only one enemy left after I saw it, and he didn't cooperate to let me test my theory.

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

 Before him 160 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
 145 of those were killed.
 1 didn't read the thermonuclear bomb manual.
 And 8 couldn't handle the stress and committed a stupid suicide.

 Some rumours though, say that the Cyberdemon was killed already!
 Is he immortal? 6 souls claim to have killed him...
 6 killed the bastard and survived.

Ha, you're pretty insane to do a melee build when it's not necessary, with the zerking bug in play. Even though we know how it works, I can't say that any of my N! AoB runs have gone very well. (And Longinus Spear? That's practically one-hit for everything...) All the same, an excellent-looking run: all those exotics!

[UltimateChaos]

Impressive run.  I was thinking about doing a UV Conqueror run and trying to get both Vampyre and MAD.  Congrats on beating AoI.

[AStranger]

Well done, I'm glad I'm not the only one crazy enough to take Vampyre during non-melee games. It really is my favorite trait.

I was thinking about doing a UV Conqueror run and trying to get both Vampyre and MAD.

I tried getting two master traits once during an Ao100 game. From what I remember it wasn't possible, the second one was just blocked even with the prerequisites. I think it was 0.9.9, though it probably hasn't changed.
