 421 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
 388 of those were killed.
 3 of those were killed by something unknown.
 4 didn't read the thermonuclear bomb manual.
 And 15 couldn't handle the stress and committed a stupid suicide.

 11 souls destroyed the Cyberdemon...
 1 sacrificed itself for the good of mankind.
 5 killed the bastard and survived.
 5 showed that it can outsmart hell itself.

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

I don't consider myself particularly good, but I've done a great deal of attempts of AoB in past versions to no avail (though a good chunk of these were during the version where berserk was bugged, to your horror/disadvantage), and now I've gotten this on roughly my fourth try. The scout class is, without a doubt, made for AoB on N!, which consists of doing a mad dash to the stairs while plowing through enemies and picking up what you run into.

I really like this for one simple reason: I can actually play this mode without fearing the early levels nearly as much, but if I'm feeling feisty I can go for more achievements and special levels where I would most likely have to push my luck. For the next attempts I'll probably stick around and try to get the items I need to do a full win, then Hell's Arena, so on so forth. Notice that the Cyberdemon literally spawned next to me in the top left, free Cyberdemon's head :)

I'm not even sure if even now with the new classes there is a viable build for AoB other than this. Are there other builds? Butcher's cleaver with malicious blades? lol

Gratz on the win. And a small question - does chainsaw count for the malicious blades perk working?

No, only blade-type weapons count, but this means that weapons like Butcher's cleaver AND Dragonslayer can be used at the same time, one can only dream.. lol

Congrats on Berserker Diamond!  :D  I've always preferred Vampyre over Blademaster, myself, so I'm impressed by anyone who can make this build work.  (I guess it's just a difference in playing style)

Oh, and I recently had a Malicious Blades build where I had Butcher's Cleaver and a Chainsword.  It was pretty awesome.  :)

OH, of course it makes sense to make use of Vampyre, especially when enemies are respawning all the time.. early levels would be harder without a doubt, but I imagine that being able to isolate a pile of corpses for a free health boost would play a big role in getting you past all the levels once you get the master trait.
