I never dared pulling that lever in the City of Skulls on AoM.

How did Dualgunner (3) feel and was it worth it?

You should take SoaG(3) before Dualgunner(2). That's because additional levels in Dualgunner only give you a speed boost, but SoaG also increases your damage.

It doesn't make any special mention of death on special levels. It seems to treat it like any other death, far as I can tell.

Also, wouldn't the speed boost from SoaG be larger than Dualgunner's as well? Since you're lowering the base firing time that Dualgunner works off of, I would think that would give a bigger speed boost, and make it an even better choice to max first. I'd also take a level of Tough as Nails before maxing Dualgunner, but that may just be my bad luck, since I seem to run into cave after cave of arachnotrons once I hit about level 19.

It was my first City of Sculls ever, so I was tempted to pull it :)
Dualgunner (3) feeled as an Uzi - I shot at least six times (12 bullets) before anyone shot back. But I'm not sure if it was worth it...

Thanks for advises, I'll try it next time.

There is also a thread about AoM over at the discussion board.
Maybe you can post some of your finds or some general feedback on AoM there as well.
