[U|100%|YAAM] Elite Platinum / Scavenger Diamond
« on: June 19, 2012, 09:32 »

I decided to get Elite Platinum badge at last (UV as a Conqueror) and went with my favourite Vampyre build. It took me a lot of tries to learn how to go about it - I had trouble with the unchained court most of all, since I tend to skip it on UV. I knew the assembly of double chainsaw before I wiped my stats, so I decided to build one this game to raise my chances of getting some useful mod (or an assembly I don't know) in the armory. No luck. I didn't find the mods for it soon enough and the armoury gave me - double chainsaw schematics.

I was quite sad that I didn't get a nano mod, since I've come to rely on powered red armor on melee runs. Without indestructible/regenerating armor, I tend to run naked on these runs, because everything gets destroyed. I was able to live with tactical armour, PBA modded red and energy shield when things got rough.

My second objective for this run was to get Scavenger Diamond, so I stockpiled phases. When I reached the vaults, I cleared the side vaults easily, but none of the four phases got me inside the middle one. So I used up all my medkits on Azrael's Scythe and it was barely enough. Too bad I didn't get whatever goodies spawned inside.

I was a little afraid of the mortuary, since I was weakened by the scythe, but I entered it invulnerable and three of the viles were close. I killed two of them, moved towards the third and used a fire skull before the invuln ran out. The rest of the viles were thankfully not far to the right and thanks to the energy shield, it wasn't too difficult to get at them.

JC didn't give me any trouble. I think he got one shot off before I was on him, slaying him in a few blows.

Two platinum and one diamond means I advanced to Mjr General. Nice!

Awww, and when I got a UV YAAM conqueror on AoMC, no one even posted in my thread =( Though that was probably it was my 2'nd, 1'st time I died to the SM.
Oh well, I'll live with it. Anyway, grats Klear! You're starting to score these diamonds! I should probably aim for a few of these as well, Scavenger, Gatekeeper...that is, after I get a few more silvers and golds (AoI, AoP victories have so far eluded me...)

Once you are able to routinely win standard UV game, Scavenger and Gatekeeper diamonds are relatively easy. Scavenger platinum was the first I got (it's the same without the UV requirement) and UV doesn't make it much harder, besides making it more difficult to reach the vaults. By the time you are usually tough enough to kill whatever is inside the middle vault with a lucky phase.

Also thanks everyone!
