[2DeviationsOut]

I've been out of this game for a while, but I decided to start again in prep for .9.9.7. So, I'm starting a new profile and getting some of the badges that I assume won't change (bronze-plat). Here's my first game out on a new profile. I used my signature build of MAC, and went damageless. Here's the mortem dump.

Before someone screams about "Damageless UC? HOW!!!", I just time my moves so that I can attack with a melee right as the AoD moves next to me and then I can move away before it can attack. Also, I went in zerked and invulnerable, with a hatred skull and a piercing chainsaw.

If Phobos Times were still running, this is the undisputed Mortem of the Month.

O.o

[Klear]

I remember you saying that each of your crazy runs is preceeded by a couple hundred preparatory runs, but I guess HMP isn't a challenge for you at all by now...

[2DeviationsOut]

Yeah, HMP really isn't a challenge anymore.

[Klear]

You should record a run like this, then. I'm sure a lot of people here would love to see it, including myself. If you can do crazy stuff like this regularly, it shouldn't be too hard to record it.

[Equality]

incredible. I can imagine damageless UC, and even Mortuary - sometimes we can get Invul there... but damageless Arena and Chained Court - when player is not so strong and have a minimum equipment? With only SoB*2 and TH? I want to see a record of such run!

[ZicherCZ]

The word "awesome" is simply not enough here.

[Cheesybox]

Great, my brain just exploded from the awesome

[skarczew]

@2Dev:
Whats your strategy against Shambler & Armory? I find it hard not to be hit by him, because he tends to teleport all the time and one unlucky teleport can fuck up the positioning :/ ...

[2DeviationsOut]

I had a A plasma rifle by then, Ammochain, and his first tele was inside my LoS, so I gunned him down with chainfire before he could do anything. Basically, I go for having such a high offense that he dies before he can fire.

[Klear]

Is that how you deal with Cybie without Dodgemaster, or is there luck involved?

I usually try to hide behind pillars when I need to reload, but sooner or later I'm unable to avoid the rocket blasts.

[2DeviationsOut]

That and judicious use of the run key along with a couple of small medpacks to recharge my running.

[Equality]

Ou, can we use small medpacks at full health? O_O

[IronBeer]

Ou, can we use small medpacks at full health? O_O

You can use any medpack at full health. I've accidentally fatfingered away about a dozen larges. I really hope we got "CHOICE" inventory management back- couple more fatfinger incidents and I might blow a blood vessel.

[Evilpotatoe]

This is insane... add me on the list of doomguys asking for records, it would be so nice !
I wouldn't have been surprised so much by a damageless run, if only it wasnt in 54 minutes (and conqueror O_o).
(54*60 + 26) / (25 + 11) = 90,7222222 seconds per level, for damageless YAAM ? Even with an unlimited ammo plasma gun, it's really awesome.

@IronBeer
I quickly got pissed off by large med-waste, and the alternative I found was to remove the "use item" binding on the "u" key. It won't prevent pressing I+something, but personally, I don't make mistakes anymore (since the U key is still necessary, for levers only, I put it on Shift+U.)
Well, I say I don't make mistakes anymore... I sometime forget to disable my mouse (by hardare), and die because I shot a wall instead of a Baron or Arena master (thanks to surprise-mouse-aiming), but this is another story. Still, I took good habits after the lost of my 2 or 3 first promising chars in UV. Too bad my mortems don't show killed by his mouse :p
The only mistakes I can't completely get rid of are due to animation's speed (playing graphic version), and since the only workaround I see is playing the console version... well, I'll just keep dying :) ... :/ ... :'(

[2DeviationsOut]

Unfortunately, I won't have time for too much on this type of run, as I'm working on something really special. Let's just say that it puts N! AoHu to shame.

[Q2ZOv]

Damageless is not so unbelievable, the speed was the thing that always shocked me in 2Devs runs. In fact i think I managed to complete all specials on N! damageless in separate runs but all my attempts take very big amount of time and also much more turns.
