So, after a few random runs, I decided to try and get the remaining bronze badges. After a few failed Strongman Bronze runs (I actually did a melee-only run, but appearantly it did'nt count. Probably because I got a Butcher's Cleaver or the chainsaw), I went for the challenge badges. And what better way to start it off than with Angel of Darkness? Well, just about any other way, but oh well. What sets this run apart form my rest is because I did'nt use my traditional MBD build. Instead I went for a Cateye build. And, despite some bumps I pulled off a win.

105 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
94 of those were killed.
11 souls destroyed the Mastermind...
10 killed the bitch and survived.
1 showed that it can outsmart hell itself.
--------------------------------------------------------------
I did'nt bother with Hell's Arena because of respawning monsters.
Mancubi level, I just bailed on it.
Phaseshift armor set. Did'nt expect it to actually give me a perma-envirosuit. Then again, it did say that I started to float, so...
The battle against the Cyberdemon...did'nt go too well. But liberal use of the knockback from being hit by the rocket launcher + Intuition 2 allowed me to beat him.
Spider Mastermind? Went much better, but almost died as well. Had it not been for the Hellwave Pack, it would have been a YASD instead of a YAVP.
Before getting Int2 and MCe, it was fairly rough, but after those two, it was'nt as bad.
I figured I'd do City of Skulls because enemies there don't leave corpses.
Maybe I should have used the Lava Element. I had actually forgotten I had that.
I can see the merits of MAc now, considering the plasma/laser rifle...
AoI, AoP, AoConfidence, AoRA and AoMC. Which is next? I tried a few AoI runs, none of them took off. AoMC tried once, died on the first level on HNTR. No, really. I can't imagine doing AoP without AoI first. So it's between AoConfidence and AoRA. Probably gonna do AoRA. Tried to do it, but my 100%-'ist just kept holding me back. Now with AoD behind me, maybe I can ignore that YAAM temptation for AoRA.
