[M|Ao100|YAAM] Pistol Prodigy
« on: May 17, 2012, 13:08 »

I got bored. So I loaded up DoomRL and decided, just for the heck of it to play Ao100. I only played Ao100 3 times before, and the furthest I've gotten was probably level 28, if I remember correctly. so when I got well past that, I was impressed with my progress, even if it is only on HNTR difficulty. But hey, you gotta start somewhere.

A few things of note:
I managed to get the 5 mancubi in melee kills needed to get to Mancubi rank.
I am a little dissapointed in the relative lack of special levels. What, no escape from lava? Or a cave full of nightmare arachnotrons? Are you going easy on me, game?
Plenty of former captains meant bullets were not a problem. I had actually almost switched to energy pistols, but after another encounter with former captains, I decided "Screw this, I'm using my trusty 10mm pistols, whether for better or worse!". It did me more good than bad in the long run.
I wanted to assemble lava boots, but couldn't find a technical mod pack before the end of the run.
A nice follow up to my first full victory. What's next? I don't know. Maybe I should try a few AoB runs to try and understand how a melee build works, then try for an AoLT. Any tips?
I used speedloader instead of the anti-freak jackal for one reason: The anti-freak jackal loses much of it's effectiveness due to much more powerful knockback making the remaining shots less accurate.

That's your tip right there... Once you get melee going, AoLT becomes just another game, especially when you play a MVm Marine (haven't tried MMB / MBM yet).

I beat AoLT on UV with a MBM scout and it wasn't at all strenuous. The combined scout and Light Travel speed boosts give you a ridiculous advantage right from the start, which only gets more extreme if you focus on speed traits and gear. Light travel is also much easier than AoB in that you get to keep a secondary ranged weapon or two.
