2DeviationsOut:
I was vainly hoping to use the Sniper pack on my BFG with a nano pack and a firestorm pack. I had originally tried to use my sniper pack on my HP Plasma rifle, but apparently I can't. Is there a list somewhere of what assemblies are moddable?
Oh, and it appears that I had a typo in the mortem dump. When I looked back at my health in the mortem, it said 22/22. Apparently, what happened is that I had clicked when I was trying to scroll down, and later when I typed it overwrote my health. Whoops. I'm not exactly a careful typist, so things like this happen to me all the time.
File upload of the mortem:

From the Wiki (and I can confirm that this is correct):
--- Quote from: DoomRL Wiki: Assemblies ---Assemblies can also be modded in limited circumstances. If the player has the second level of Whizkid before the assembly is finished, they may then add a single mod to that assembled item.
--- End quote ---
This is the only exception to modding assemblies. TBH I'd rather it get removed in 0995, I don't like to have to consider super-combo possibilities in addition to balancing them not to be too weak/strong as a standalone product. It leads to things like P-modded tactical armors and assault rifles, or S-modded hyperblasters and assault cannons, or basically anything attached to stuff like power armor, plate armor, and the master assemblies. (Assemblies will be getting an overhaul for 0995, definitely for the better.)
2DeviationsOut:
Now I have to try that. Sometime in Ao100, I want to get A-Modded Gravity Phaseshift Boots, P-Modded Power Armor, and a S-Modded Demolition Ammo Minigun or a S-Modded Railgun.
Any requests for my next challenge attempt?
GrimmC:
Personally I'm ok with 1-mod assemblies. Dumping an extra trait into Whizkid is a significant drain on your traits, especially if you're not a Technician. And DoomRL is hard enough already. I would be happy about that only if, as AnderHammer recently said, "R, M, & V become more Doom-like and less hax."
So does this mean tormuse has competition now? :P
Tormuse:
Wait... what?... Wait some more... seriously, what? 2DeviationsOut, do you realize how mind-bogglingly incredible this is? :o
Game Hunter has already commented on the things that make this incredible, so I'll just reiterate briefly: Angel of Humanity, 92% kills, 1 hour 19 minute gameplay, *almost* conqueror, (including clearing HA and The Mortuary!) all at Nightmare difficulty, and an Iron Skull on top of everything else = Mind Blown! o_O

Apparently, it was one-in-a-thousand! :|

Hey, I'm just a guy... 2DeviationsOut is the new God Hand here, even if not in name. :P
--- Quote from: 2DeviationsOut on December 27, 2011, 09:06 ---Also, take this one slowly, and think about what you are doing. My normal game time is 45-60 minutes for a UV run, so taking that extra 20 minutes really helped me out, as I was able to make fewer dumb mistakes.

I find this line kind of funny because I always move really slowly in the game. (Except for my Speedrunner Diamond, obviously) ;) If you look at any of my mortems, you'll see that I generally take several hours, if not days, and 1 hour 19 minutes is *way* faster than any Nightmare game I've ever played. It's just funny to me that you consider it slow. :)
--- Quote from: Game Hunter on December 27, 2011, 10:08 ---The Iron Skull is just ridiculous. I'm not sure you should have gotten it...I mean we're talking about 10000 damage. Your health at the end of the game may have something to do with it: invulnerability, in addition to making you immune to all sources of damage, constantly restores your HP to 100% if it's lower, so there may be something suspicious going on with that. Either way, you probably deserve it, even if you only took a tenth of that.

I wondered about that... A marine with Iro 5 in AoHu has a max of 22 hitpoints, so in order to take 10,000 damage, you would need the equivalent of 454 large med-packs! :o I'm guessing you didn't actually find *that* many, so I'd guess that some quirk in the invulnerability programming is the most logical explanation. Even so, I must say that I never thought I'd see someone get Iron Skull without the Vampyre trait; that's just... insane! :o

My favourite is still the Firestorm-modded Hyperblaster. It kicks serious ass! :D

Well, since you asked... For a while, I was trying to get the never before achieved Inquisitor Diamond. I was trying it with a Survivalist build with modest success, but never quite made it. If you could achieve that, I would be impressed (again) ;) regardless of what build you use.
