...no one wielding the Spear of Destiny can ever be defeated. And in my case, that was true except for the first time I claimed the Longinus Spear. (NOTE: This is the 2'nd time I got the Spear, so no definitive proof can be drawn yet).

Finally, a win with a melee build! Some things to note:
Probably the single most important reason why I won was an onyx pack from a vault in levels 5-7. I used it on a red armor and never looked back until Dis, where I swapped it out for the more protective but short term Angelic Armor.
City of Skulls went very well actually. Only had to use one large med pack and one phase device. Vampyre held me through for the rest of the city, and it gave me skulls that really helped in...
...the Mortuary. With the skulls I took out some of the corpses and then charged in, took out an arch-vile who was literally right next to the entrance, then went and fought 2 more who were next to each other and who had already scored a legion of badness. But it was'nt too bad. Did'nt have to use a med-pack and my onyx modded red armor helped me through.
Lava pits? Thermonuclear bomb. I wanted insurance against the Spider Mastermind, though ultimately it did'nt make a tiny difference. And no, I did'nt get any more invulnerability, so even if I did'nt nuke the Lava Pits, I would not have been able to nuke the SM without dying myself.
The 8 missed kills? The 4 cacodemons in the Chained Vault and 4 enemies on level 3, among which were 2 former sergeants. At the time I only had a combat knife and no badass levels, so sergeants were pretty much THE most dangerous enemy to encounter at the time.

With combined gift-dropping and run/wait tactics they aren't actually so bad, provided you have something to hide behind of course. Good going again, what you did with the City / Mortuary is exactly what I'm aiming for in my current run (including MVm + LS). Fingers crossed...

[Matt_S]

If you have spare knives (well, you'll have at least one since you just got the chainsaw), you can throw them to destroy the doors leading to the cacodemons.

Say whut?

Doesn't work for me because the knives stop 1 space before the door.

[Matt_S]

Yeah, I discovered it when I did an AoB run some time ago.  Thrown knives can destroy doors.

>> On level 19 he stumbled into complex full of mancubi!

Wow, it's quite difficult, isnt it?


And what special level you visited, but not completed?

With the right armor + BER / MVm, Mancubi aren't so bad really, especially when you also have something to hide behind while they step into melee range.

While messing with mancubi - one cannot ever be sure that there is something to hide behind.
Especially ambushed by em and standing in center of map.

Didn't see this post before.  Hmm, maybe I'm misremembering and I did have to step in the lava.

Onyx-modded Red Armor made the mancubi complex not as bad, especially when I 1-2 shot them, plus I go berserk quite often. And as for the incompleted special level, it was the Chained Court. I did not kill the 4 cacodemons that were in the rooms surrounded by lava. (If you don't do Hell's Arena, then they are in rooms surrounded by lava.)
