Going for badges, so I went ITYD. (I THOUGHT nuking the cyberdemon gave a badge) Dove deep deep deep, going for max survivability, decided Army of the Dead was best bet.  TaN, Bad, and Iro added to that.  Cleared out spiders lair extremely easily (Probably because on top of TaN level 3 I had cybernetic armor). Also i'll note that I took on all the arachnotrons in the spider lair at the same time!  Turned on running and just herded them into the same area, unleashed hell with super shotgun + assault shotgun.  Got my nuke from there.  Made it to hell arena for the first time Invuln was still on. Sweet! Nuked the bastard.  Got into a serious fight of shotguns vs rocket against JC.

  Got him down to severely wounded and had only 4 small med kits left at 24% health.  Used a phase device to heal up, it brought me over to his starting point.  Unfortunatly...I couldnt close the distance fast enough to finish him off.  Barons got me =(

Going for badges, so I went ITYD. (I THOUGHT nuking the cyberdemon gave a badge)

Well, that would depend on what badge you were going for. I hate to be pushing my own work, but if you are truly going for badges, try this on for size. It should cover any badges you're (likely) looking for at this point in your DoomRL experience.

Unfortunately, getting past the Cyberdemon but failing to defeat the true evil doesn't count as any kind of victory: if it did, we wouldn't have so many disappointed AoPc players. The victory conditions are as follows (spoiler'd just in case):

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

- Partial: kill Cybie with a nuke. You die with him, so it's not very complete.
- Standard: kill Cybie using conventional means. He's dead and you get to go home happy.
- Full: kill Cybie with a nuke, survive (ie, come in with invulnerability), find the stairs, kill JC. Technically, you can nuke him if you want and it still counts as full, regardless of your own vulnerability.

Dove deep deep deep, going for max survivability, decided Army of the Dead was best bet.  TaN, Bad, and Iro added to that.  Cleared out spiders lair extremely easily (Probably because on top of TaN level 3 I had cybernetic armor). Also i'll note that I took on all the arachnotrons in the spider lair at the same time!  Turned on running and just herded them into the same area, unleashed hell with super shotgun + assault shotgun.

Damn, super shotgun AND assault shotgun on the same run? See, that's the kind of stuff you could use on ANY run, which is why those weapons are great finds. For you to get them on a MAD run just makes it much better, it's a shame the Barons got you in the end. Protip: always, always, ALWAYS clear Halls of Carnage. The rewards in there are too good to pass up.

thats a great guide, thanks a bunch!  Ive been trying so long for the arena silver badge and have had no luck.  By the time I get to the arena im almost out of life and med kits.  Guess I should stop going for XP and go for long term survivability.
