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

 Before him 121 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
 86 of those were killed.
 1 of those was killed by something unknown.
 8 didn't read the thermonuclear bomb manual.
 And 2 couldn't handle the stress and committed a stupid suicide.

 Some rumours though, say that the Cyberdemon was killed already!
 Is he immortal? 24 souls claim to have killed him...
 4 sacrificed itself for the good of mankind.
 18 killed the bastard and survived.
 2 showed that it can outsmart hell itself.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Argh, I was so bloody close! I don't care if hadn't found a nuke. I had the gothic armor, I had a bucketful med-packs, I could have falcon - freaking - punched the cyberdemon to death, just you have watched me! But no, REVENANTS EVERYWHERE. I even punched two of them to pulp but do you think that deterred them? Of course not. Maybe I could run past them? NO. Missiles every turn. Where are my god damned homing phases when I need them. Level 24. Seriously.

RAAAAAAGE!

Probably the same plan he had for everything else he killed, judging from his comments.

Maths time!

When I entered level 24, I was holding (I think) 10 large med-packs. Let's say my armour on average cancels out any approach damage. TaN's damage reduction would still have let me take 3 nude melee hits from the cyberdemon before needing to heal. I could have made 3 safe attacks + 2 more after each medpack, so 23 total. Brute's attack bonus minus Cybie's natural armour would have averaged 6 damage a hit. Multiply that out, I was guaranteed to take down 2/3rds of Cybie's ITYTD health. Not quite enough, but call it a coin flip that my berserking would have kicked in half way through and ...

Sigh. Now I feel obliged to try this run again tomorrow, just for how awesome it could be.

Let's not mention that, with clever manipulation and/or pillar luck he could never land or shoot a rocket, and you wouldn't lose all of your armor approaching him, so you wouldn't be naked all of the time.

Polish those fists until they shine in the sun.
