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

AoHu is a challenge that I've always struggled with, even on HNTR.  Tried so many strategies, and classes seemed like they would help - tech or scout for WK/Int with an assault rifle ready to go was my go-to, but it was so easy to instantly lose when I got careless, which was inevitable. New Berserker seems tailor-made for this, as you get extra protection.

I picked Marine intending to take Vampyre, but feared that I couldn't slog it out with the AoD even berserked, and berserk might not trigger.  I changed my mind as I didn't like the blocked traits, and figured most kills would not be melee.  Tough as Nails is not necessary for Vampyre, but I needed it as I couldn't P-mod the starting armor.
Scout might be a better choice with the same traits, though I'm pretty sure the extra 2 HP saved me a few times.  Hard to evaluate the extra pack length, but seemed useful.

The Chained Court is tough on AoHu.  Keep the red armor on, even with berserk.  I charged the Master with the chainsaw, using rockets a little first.

Jackhammer (from Armory) made things much easier.  It chews through so much ammo (especially at a distance), but I started carrying fewer medpacks (often only 1); Globes were usually enough health.  The knockback makes the enemies rarely return fire, and helps put them into lava/acid.

Hell's Armory is mostly easy, but the arachnotrons are a pain.  I tried to open the north-east corner of their rooms, and wait nearby with the jackhammer.  worked well with one, the other managed to shoot but was not lethal.  Shambler was fought with the chainsaw, as Jackhammer is still only a shotgun.

Unholy Cathedral - A duelist armor gave increased confidence, and I planned to use the strategy I found in my last AoMC run - outspeed the angel and make him let you hit & run.  A piercing chainsaw was very useful in shortening the fight (essentially +10 damage, I think), but I had berserk from the demons/souls so it was no problem.

City of Skulls was tougher than it should have been - I tried to melee one of the middle rooms; even with berserk there's just too many souls to try it as they all hit for around 8% anyway.  Shotguns for the normal enemies, added missile launcher for the boss.

For the Vaults, Barons are no problem but the new sneaky Arachnotrons are.  They refused to cooperate with my BFGs, and made me use my medpacks.  This is not the challenge for Necroarmor, I'm pretty sure.

Mortuary I was fortunate enough to enter invincible.  I cleared two Viles in melee and phased to the other side to lay waste with the BFG - unfortunately destroying the nuclear BFG.  Jackhammer and missile launcher finished it off.  At one point I was running out of berserk, but a hatred skull fixed that.

A moderately convenient Berserk Pack on floor 24 made the cyberdemon trivial - dodge once, stab-stab-stab.

And I got a rank up! :)
