I've been playing this a lot lately and probably will keep playing it for a while to come. I've also managed to hammer out a few basic tactics for surviving.
They are:
1) Make ballistic(A) Red Armor. This is almost mandatory. The 30% Bullet Res is amazing and the speed boost isn't bad either.
2) Scouts are your best friend. They move faster, can see the stairs and can skip EE for Int should choose to open Int 2
3) Don't be lazy! Use your shotgun to scout, not your face :P I've lost many runs to this.
4)Unless Zerking or Invulnerable, under no circumstances should you face Demons/Barons/Cacos in a straight up fire fight. They WILL one-shot you. And for me playing on N! this also makes running in place waaaay less effective as it only takes 1 shot.
Now for the actual run. Opened pretty nice. I managed to grab my shotty taking close to no damage and I got both small med packs(Not that I got the chance to use them all).
On level 2 I reached level 2 taking HR again for good measure.
On level 3 I had a close call with a Baron but it wandered off and I was able to play hide and seek, killing two of them. A little later I got level 3 and took HR.
On level 4 I started right next to the chained court so I used that to gain some free XP :D
On level 7 I was able to get another Zerk pack and an Invulnerable Globe. It also had stairs to the wall but I decided to cut out the middle man and go down the normal stairs.
Level 8 was an arena level and I got a fair bit of exp working my way to the stairs.
Level 9 opened on a risky note. I start right next to a commando so I gamble and kill him in three shots gaining a level... only to die to another commando a few moments later.
I'm making progress though. I hope to reach the Hellgate soon.
