Which silver badge to go for third in 0.9.9.1?
« on: October 03, 2010, 08:58 »
Obviously Scavenger and Strongman are the first two; which one would you suggest I go for next?

The options I'm considering are UAC (I managed it in 0.9.9 on an Ammochain build; I'm pretty sure a ridiculous amount of dumb luck was involved), Berserker (ditto; has the added merit under the new regime of not requiring me to get past the Hellgate level), and Reaper.

Armorer Platinum and Diamond should be abolished; the Dragonslayer taboo deserves every scrap of mockery it receives.

heh UAC and Strongman are two of the 5 I'm missing (but I have Veteran from challenge modes).  Reaper is probably the easiest to specifically aim for, but that would be a bit boring IMO - you can grab that one along with others in any successful game with a homing phase or even with regular phases.  I'd go for Berserker (aim for the Gold and the Longinus Gold, you can get Reaper and Scavenger as well if things go well) - or any other Angel really.  The advantage with Berserker is that even if you fail, you might get the silver.

Getting Berserker Gold means getting past the Hellgate. This appears to currently be beyond my ability unless I get stupidly lucky or play on ITYTD :(

It is easy to go for Arena Silver. It does not require much time to get if you know how, and so you can take much practice.
And also I got Berserker Silver along with Berserker Gold. Getting to level 15 is probably the hardest part of this angel.

Well, the problem has resolved itself.

Took a shot-to-nothing Angel of Shotgunnery run to add one more Bronze... and won, complete with a homing phase device to get Reaper Silver with. Power modded Onyx Armor is a very relaxing thing to have.
