[Tormuse]

I seem to be failing at all my Angelic badge goals lately, so I thought I'd set my sights on something easier and go for Brick Silver, and I thought I'd try to see if I could get Conqueror and Gargulec medal while I was at it.  Success hinged on lucky phase devices at the Wall.  I had three of them when I got to that level, and luckily, the third one put me on the correct side.  As a bonus, I was invulnerable at the time, which made it easy to clear out all the Knights and Barons there.  :)

Spoiler: In case anyone is bothered by assembly spoilers (click to show/hide)

The reward at Deimos Lab included an Onyx mod and a Nano mod.  In retrospect, I probably should've used the Nano mod to make anti-gravity boots and used the Onyx mod for my body armour, but I had power-modded red armour at the time and making Power Armour was just too tempting to pass up.  :)

[Sereg]

That is an impressive collection of badges. Well played.

[Klear]

Nice run. And thank you for spoilering the assembly stuff.

[White Rider]

Lava steel boots.

...Huh.
That's...brilliant.

[Infinitum]

I was going to ask how many Envirosuits you needed for lavapits without hellrunner until I saw the Angel Arm activation. Also:

That's some mighty fine ripping/tearing if I ever saw some.

Haven't played melee much, have you? :)

In the hands of a berserk melee-build doomguy, the spear one-shots arch-viles more than 50% of the time.

[Tormuse]

Yeah, the Longinus Spear with Brute 4 and Berserker is devastating to anything and I think JC's hitpoints are scaled based on difficulty level, so in this case, they were lower than "normal."

As for envirosuits, there are three of them on the level itself, so you can often do it going in with one, especially if you can get a lucky phase to take you part way.  (The phase device won't put you in lava, so you should appear on one of the islands)  If you're playing non-Nightmare!, non-marine, two envirosuits are probably preferable, otherwise your boots might get eaten a bit.  :)
