I don't want to downplay the achievement, but there are a fair number of Diamond badges that were considered impossible back in the day, and Masochism was included on that list. With the new masters and, perhaps more importantly, the easy-access advanced traits, a lot of these Diamonds are probably possible, if not quite doable (at least for experts like us). If you want to find a fairly complete listing of previous diamonds collected, go check out the Diamond Hunters sticky. I think everything listed there at least compiles all the unique collections, so anything never collected there is probably up for grabs. (Except for Technician/Armorer, I'm pretty sure people have gotten those without posting mortems for it.)
But yeah, Int(2) and shotty build sounds like the best way to play a game in order to avoid damage. I'd probably try it with Fireangel just because of Dodgemaster + no-splash (and, as I said before, Int(2) isn't my thing).

True, it's possible that some things still need rebalancing for the next version. (Someone said that Shottyhead might be too powerful) Combining Shottyhead with Int 2, i.e. being able to push everyone out of visual range while still being able to see where they are, is quite powerful. Perhaps Shottyhead should block Intuition? (In which case, I should probably try for that Everyman Diamond badge fast before the next version comes out!) :P

I did. It's in need of updating. ;) (Heehee) :D

@rchandra, it turns out it only shot up to Lt. General. :)
@Game Hunter, and now the Diamond Hunter thread is *really* in need of updating. :D EDIT: Incidentally, let me know if you'd like help updating it; I'd be happy to help you search for the appropriate thread links to put in there.
