 2 sacrificed itself for the good of mankind.
 8 killed the bitch and survived.
 10 showed that it can outsmart hell itself.

I was testing this mode, and I noticed that you start right where UC is available, so my first thought was to try a melee build. I was surprised at how very little luck is involved, the starting equipment lets you obliterate the first level with ease on medium difficulty at least, and you're already level 3 before the first level is done. It seems you can do UC consistently as long as you grab an armor and keep your initial large health packs, and more often than not you end up with more than that. I got some funny badges along the way, like Aurora Badge on probably the last mode I would expect to get it. Once you grab the Longinus spear it's pretty smooth sailing, though having Enviroboots drop definitely helped since I could not find an envirosuit nor could I assemble decent enough boots before the lava pits.

I wonder how UC would be done on N! though.. I figure in the worst case scenario you'd be dying so often you'll eventually run into really lucky starts and find yourself dueling the AoD with an invulnerability and berserk pack or something to that effect. I feel I'm abusing melee a lot, but I guess in this case there's not much choice aside from a melee build if you want to do UC immediately. xD

EDIT: Now that I think about it, this mode might be an easier AoB, since the moment you clear UC even on N!, it's pretty much a race to the finish, except you skip all the nasty parts at the beginning.

Blade difficulty, indeed =) .

And I don't blame you for not resisting UC. Melee is trendy nowadays.

Pretty much the same.Except that you can expect lvl4 or lvl5 after finishing first level.
If you have found armor/invul/took Tan than it's easy if not be ready to burn through medpacks, as he has almost twice more(500 vs 290) hp than on M.

Managed to beat it, then proceeded to rush through the game, but I neglected to maintain at least 80% kills to get Daredevil Diamond, oops.

A general question: maybe it's because I never played the console version, but how do I read the graveyard in the mortems? In know the meaning of a lot of the symbols, and can detect the general layout, but are clueless as to how this relates to the game you just played...

Oh and what does the "He saved himself N times." stem from?

The graveyard in the graphical version is what your final move would look like in the console version.
Saved himself N times means you saved the game N times.
