[H|Ao100|78|99%|YASD] I really thought I had this one
« on: October 02, 2010, 13:30 »

Getting lucky with the RNG for the pistol game - early blaster, then a Trigun, then a Railgun!  Like Damerell's run, the Railgun was mostly used for arachnotron caves.  Game Hunter's arche-vile tips helped a lot too, and I was able to get much farther than ever before (old record floor 19).

But the group of VVVVVMMMMMMMMAABB (I think, unsure exactly how many Ms) was brutal.  I couldn't keep track of which mancubi were newly raised and which were ready to kill me and destroy my cover.  They beat through 4 large medpacks and 3 or 4 suits of red+ armor (BP, P, gothic B, mostly at 150% or so).  I Hell Staffed away to recover but insisted on coming back to preserve my honour.  Reloading the Trigun killed me when they got move-attack-attack - should have pulled out the Beretta (enemies offscreen, so I thought I was safe).

I found the Beretta much later, but I did still find it useful.  having 18 bullets lets you keep firing a lot longer, and on levels where ammo is plentiful the alternate modes can be quite good with Eagle Eye / SoaB.

Earlier in the game, it seemed like if I waited near an arch-vile, I would get the first shot.  later, it would.  My movement speed was better later on due to Hellrunner, planeshift boots and agility mods on armor - could that cause a worse situation where I need to wait twice instead of once, but then he gets move-attack?

Sorry for the double post, but this run hurt.  It'll probably be a day or two before I pick myself up and try again.

 Before him 287 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
 253 of those were killed.
 2 of those were killed by something unknown.
 6 didn't read the thermonuclear bomb manual.
 And 14 couldn't handle the stress and committed a stupid suicide.

 Some rumours though, say that the Cyberdemon was killed already!
 Is he immortal? 12 souls claim to have killed him...
 2 sacrificed itself for the good of mankind.
 9 killed the bastard and survived.
 1 showed that it can outsmart hell itself.
