 133 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
 95 of those were killed.
 1 of those was killed by something unknown.
 6 didn't read the thermonuclear bomb manual.
 And 10 couldn't handle the stress and committed a stupid suicide.

 21 souls destroyed the Mastermind...
 3 sacrificed itself for the good of mankind.
 13 killed the bitch and survived.
 5 showed that it can outsmart Hell itself.

--------------------------------------------------------------

First Conqueror badge on a difficulty that wasn't ITYTD.
RNG gave me all the special levels that I preferred, except for The Wall where I nearly died on. Greatly prefer Military Base, Hell's Armory, Abyssal Plains, Spider's Lair and Limbo (especially this!) over all the other pairings.

Mortuary probably would have been doable for the most part, since I walked in with two blood skulls. Agony Elemental also dropped a hatred skull but I used that at Unholy Cathedral. But instead I got Limbo which meant I could just radar-shoot with my elephant gun and [eventually] kill things. But I also got lucky with a homing phase as it whisked me off to the upper-right exit, with the nuclear BFG waiting to be used.

I was mostly attempting to get a HMP Standard clear, since I noticed I hadn't done that yet. I think it was Klear who was saying that Scavenger Diamond was the "easiest" Diamond to get, since all it requires is Azrael's Scythe and getting to the Vaults...on UV. Well, I definitely wasn't playing on UV, but I still got Scavenger Platinum with the same method that was described. I had the Arena Master's Staff with me the entire run until I got to The Vaults, in the event I accidentally the entire Scythe. But I was still able to open up the left and right vaults (albeit finding nothing of use!) and thus I ditched the staff in the vaults and left.

All in all very pleased with how this run turned out. Ranked up to Colonel since this is the third Platinum badge in my shinies collection.

How does the Scythe help get Scavenger Platinum? My assumption is that the alternate fire is used to clear everything on the inside, but wouldn't that burn a lot of medkits? Or am I thinking about it all wrong?

Yes, you use alt-fire to clear everything on the inside. Each casting takes 5 MaxHP from you and drains your fatigue, so you need some way to restore your fatigue. I used small medkits--went into the vaults with three small medkits.

Of course, it took me four castings, so I had to use a large medkit. :(

...and to get the diamond, you'll need a bit more medkits to kill off the arch-viles, but if you plan for it, stockpiling enough should be easy.

To get the diamond you need phase devices first :) .

I think that's the idea of the challenge, but it can be circumvented with the Scythe - unless a Scythe clear doesn't count for diamond even though it does for platinum, for some reason?

Why's that?
The only difference in reqs for Scavenger Platinum and Diamond is that Diamond requires UV. Isn't Scythe-ing everything to death enough? That's how I got Platinum.
