[H|Ao100|YAAM] Trigun gunning
« on: July 05, 2012, 15:09 »

A couple of failed UV Ao100 runs (Most never made it to Deimos. Seriously, those Hell Knights and ESPECIALLY those plasma cannon users (Commando, Arachnotron) can go to...er...oh right. So I decided to try and do a step down and do HMP Ao100.

This run. Took. Forever. Ugh, and to think that I'mma repeat this on UV, assuming I ever get up to MSs before getting killed...

Level 11 got me the Trigun. Sad that I was no able to slap on another power mod on it, but oh well, it's as powerful as a combat pistol with P3 anyway, just without the clip size. The reload times were killing me, though, until I picked up a few levels in Reloader.

No onyx mod packs, so I would not have been able to assemble cybernano armor or a fireshield anyway. So I went with the Nanoskin armor.

In general the run is pretty standard, but for me it's an accomplishment. Sad that I am submitting it at a similar time as 2dev once again annihilates the game.

One thing though: Should I have assembled the armor or should I have stuck with Malek's Armor which I found on the same level? (I found it before the assembly, but I did'nt know, and I already had PN-modded red armor anyway).

Well done. Had you cracked the 100 level barrier before? Most people tend to look at it as "So glad I don't have to do that AGAIN." so it's interesting to see you looking forward to running it on UV.

Hard to call.  The red armour is slower but gives you more defense, while Malek's Armour gives slightly less defense, doesn't slow you down much, and is probably indestructible because it is a unique (someone correct me on this if I'm wrong).

But A100 on HMP is still a worthy achievement!  With YAAM too... wow.  I can't bring myself to do that even; HNTR A100 with MSs was sufficiently annoying enough.  >.<

Malek's speeds you, not slows you. One of the best possible armors in the game. Only thing I think I'd take over Malek's is onyx- or nano-modded cerberus. Though if I got a nano mod, I'd make gravity boots before putting it on armor.

Yeah Malek's gives you +25% ms.And it is undestructible.If you mean that you found it and nano pack on the same level i think i would go with malek's + antigrav(just this gives you 0.38 ms time - and you can take HR and be even faster and A-mod your antigravs for a total of 0.4*0.75*0.55 = 0.17!
And the fact that you have 0.1s firetime works wonders - you can do shoot and step back before anything reacts.

I found the nano mod pack in ~level 6-7, whereas I found Malek's Armor on level 11, so had I known that I was gonna find Malek's Armor I probably would have made antigrav boots.

And this is my 3'rd Ao100 YAAM. First time it was HNTR with a Bullet Dance build, second time HNTR MSs build. Fourth time...I'll try either a MSs build or maybe a MSm or a MCe build.

And yeah, it does get boring after a while, though occasionally something does shake you up (Starting a level next to 3 arch-viles and 4 mancubi while you can only shoot 6 bullets between reloads and it takes 3 shots to kill a mancubus, 4 for an arch-vile comes to mind).
