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

 Before him 335 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
 251 of those were killed.
 1 of those was killed by something unknown.
 7 didn't read the thermonuclear bomb manual.
 And 22 couldn't handle the stress and committed a stupid suicide.

 Some rumours though, say that the Cyberdemon was killed already!
 Is he immortal? 54 souls claim to have killed him...
 3 sacrificed itself for the good of mankind.
 51 killed the bastard and survived.

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

I promise this is my last AoHu mortem (at least in this version :>).

I skipped levels 22 and 24 (thanks GH) so no YAAM, and I didn't kill Shambler (I'll get him in the next version ;).as a matter of fact I did kill him heh, I played AoHu so many times that every game just blurs together ;)

Special levels:
  • UC - purely luck based. Kill demons and hope for a berserk. I didn't get it in 3 attemps out of 18 that reached UC. If you kill everything before UC, you'll be level 8.
  • Vaults - super easy with a tactical shotgun and around 100-150 shells. Just corner-shoot everything.
  • Mortuary - hard if you're not berserked, medium-hard if you are. In this run I had two hatred skulls and all 5 Arch-Viles spawned clustered on the right. With Irox3, TaNx3 and a red armor (P) I was taking <10% damage from Viles while berserked.
  • Lava Pits - easy. I used the second hatred skull before exiting the Mortuary and I killed most things with the LS. The boss was killed with the missile launcher and I think I didn't get hit once.
  • Cyberdemon - almost impossible without a nuke ;). If my calculations are correct, he can kill you in one turn even if you have [7/7] armor, 200% hp and maxxed Iro/TaN. He killed me once (100%-0) so this run I played it safe (thanks GH)

This is dedication (or lack of skill :P):

Well, you are ballsy enough to actually play AoHu -- the only times I dare attempt this is with the God Kit when testing.

Very good run and a most patient one indeed.  So, when are you trying this on UV or N!?  No pressure, just out of curiousity only.

I computed, therefore I was.

First I have to win a standard game on N! ;)

UC - purely luck based. Kill demons and hope for a berserk. I didn't get it in 3 attemps out of 18 that reached UC. If you kill everything before UC, you'll be level 8.

Really? In my run, I'm pretty sure I had MVp + Iro 2 by the time I was fighting the Angel of Death. I seem to recall getting the 9th level halfway through UC (and thank goodness, because I went TaN->TaN->Bad->Iro->Iro->Bru->Bru->Ber->MVp)

I really assumed this would be harder (Spider's Lair spawned over the Vaults in my run) but I never practice the vaults, so I'm surprised to hear that you can just corner shoot everything.

This isn't true. In my run I got hit while I was on 100% HP with Iro 4 and about 9 armour (TaN 3 + Modified Red Armour) and it left me with about 20% HP. Iro 4 puts you on 18 HP, and his average damage is 21 (max is 36) so if I went in there with 200% HP even a really unlucky roll wouldn't've killed me.

Really? [...] I seem to recall getting the 9th level halfway through UC
Yes, I got to level 9 in the UC, but I really wanted MVm before I hit the first demon. I was afraid that if I had to use medpacks while fighting demons, my berserk would run out (I was really paranoid at that point).

I really assumed this would be harder (Spider's Lair spawned over the Vaults in my run) but I never practice the vaults, so I'm surprised to hear that you can just corner shoot everything.
I almost never took any damage in the Vaults. Barons would be lured by stuff dropped by other dead barons, and if I ran in place long enough, the Arachnotrons would come too (sometimes I just rushed in with the LS after the barons were dead).

You are correct, I didn't account for 200% hp. But I think my original point still stands - he will get you down to 100% eventually, and then all it takes is one rocket to kill you.
Theory: 36 max damage - 7 (angelic) - 3 (TaNx3) = 26 max damage > 18 hp (Irox4)
Practice:
You use a large med-pack. You feel fully healed. The Cyberdemon fires! You
 are hit! Your Angelic Armor is damaged! You die!... Press <Enter>...

And my armor ended up like this (I'm pretty sure it was at 7/7 before the hit, but who knows):
[a] [ Armor      ]   Angelic Armor [3/7] (29%)
