[M|AoSh|75%|YASD] Lousey Hiding Arch Viles!!!
« on: March 23, 2012, 19:25 »

This was a great AoSh run I had going, found/made some really good gear.  Found an invuln globe 3 spaces away from the entrance of the mortuary.  Against my better judgement I decided to go into it anyways, I figured hey all I have to do is rush the viles before invuln wears off and I will be ok.

Well...didnt quite work out.  I went to the right, found NO viles, every single one of them was on the left side of the map :( needless to say I was completely overrun very very quickly.

on a second note, did I waste my time with SoaB?  I didnt really notice much more dmg, does it not work as good with shotguns?

Yeah, SoB isn't worth much for shotguns. Its real power comes with rapid fire weapons where each bullet gets the +1.  Ironman or Tough as Nails for defense is probably where you'd want to go after Army of the Dead.

I disagree.  The extra knockback you get from SOB is quite beneficial for the shotgun for corner-shooting tactics, keeping the enemies from getting too close.  It helps save ammo too, which is very beneficial for AoSh, since you have to rely on one type of ammo.  Yeah, you may not see the benefits as much as with rapid-fire weapons, but I wouldn't underestimate the advantage of SOB for a shotgun build.  Personally, I'm rather fond of Army of the Dead Master trait for the fact that it's the only Shotgun Master trait that doesn't block SOB.

And yeah, as for the Mortuary, going in there with a shotgun build is pretty ballsy;  I wouldn't recommend it.  :)

Bad2 gives you 2-tile knockback reduction so grappling boots are not the best in that case, since they slow you down.Tactical or just A-modded plasteel/protective would be better.
