 85 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
 75 of those were killed.
 2 of those were killed by something unknown.
 And 4 couldn't handle the stress and committed a stupid suicide.

 4 souls destroyed the Cyberdemon...
 4 killed the bastard and survived.

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

Since I finally noticed that 9.9.4 was released, I decided to give it a whirl. Scout AoB seemed like an interesting combo, to take advantage of their stairsense.

I started with brute (because I'm not fucking retarded) and rolled from there up to Berserker, to get myself established. Since Scouts know where the exits are, it actually seems better to not rely on dodging, but instead on being able to go berserk and carve a bloody swathe when you can't find an alternate route through. After that I dropped some levels in Intuition, which were disgustingly helpful. Even with Int2 being nerfed to only work slightly out of visual range, being able to figure out what kind of nonsense is waiting in the next room or around the corner is great for figuring out what paths to take. Honestly, at that point I was set. Information and cowardice is much better at getting through a level than the ability to carve into a pile and scream about blood, and later map types love to give lots of different routes between here and there. Early maps are harder, since they involve big rooms and very few alternate routes. And zombies with shotguns, as usual.

I did get into a few bad situations, like my dumbfuck idea of invading the City of Skulls. Blademaster wasn't useful because of how late I got it and the fact that I was mostly avoiding giant mobs, but in the City it would have practically carved a path through. Instead, I sat there cutting down skulls for nearly no XP and slowly running out of health and restoratives, while a bunch of elementals sat far back and shat out more skulls. Maybe if I'd played a Marine and took vampire as early as possible, it'd be useful to take on the city; skulls for health, and there's so damn many that you could build up enough Berserkerness to last through the end of the game. Instead, I had intuition and had to use a homing phase to escape the giant pile of bones when I'd run out of Large Medikits and realized I was fucked if I didn't leave.

But most of the time Intuition kept me safe in situations where I'd have been fucked. Like an arachnotron crossfire in a warehouse that I was able to turn around into a counter-ambush, since I could "sense" them around corners. That skill is powerful now that it's available early.

Also, while I skipped the Halls of Carnage, the RNG still insisted on giving me a BFG9k shortly after the cathedral. I didn't know those could randomly spawn outside of Ao100. I thanked the RNG for this unprecedented gift by hurling it into a nearby pool of lava, as I am wont to do.

...Maybe if I'd played a Marine and took vampire as early as possible, it'd be useful to take on the city; skulls for health, and there's so damn many that you could build up enough Berserkerness to last through the end of the game.

I thought of that too.  :)  Sadly, berserk duration from Berserker trait is capped for exactly that reason, but yes, pain elementals are an excellent source of health/berserk power for a Vampyre.  :)
