--------------------------------------------------------------
I had a REAL hard time with ammo on the lower levels. I had to juggle the Plasma, Rockets, and Chaingun like crazy to make sure I didn't run out yet didn't get creamed. I don't know where the heck all those rockets that normally spawn went! I even nabbed EVERY rocket up on Arena, Armory, and Wall, but by the time I hit floor 15 or so I was out! Due to that, I thought Spider's Lair was a godsend, especially since it also got me my BFG and netted me some Plasma cells (which I was out of as well...)
I feel REALLY stupid about my death. I had an extra large medkit and TWO Phase Devices! As soon as I hit fire I noticed my 2% health, but by then it was too late. I guess I got a little overconfident having just obtained a BFG and some fresh ammo, but my problem was that I was trying TOO hard not to hurt myself, so I ended up spreading the rockets around a bit much and didn't up killing anything. In my defense, though, I did get knocked into a pool of lava and didn't really have the time (or space once I got surrounded) to move. Oh, and those 10 enemies I didn't kill? All Arachs, all onscreen. That was a terrible starting point. But again, it was my fault and it was stupid.
One thing I've noticed through my games, though, the third level of Eagle Eye is completely unnecessary. With two points you can leave your tactics on Coward perfectly and miss maybe one out of every hundred shots. Which reduces your damage considerably. With Red Armor and three levels of Tough as Nails thrown into the mix, I never even saw my health move unless I was getting gang raped. Oh, and yeah, I switch-powerleveled twice on level 4 or so.
I'm definitely getting better, but I still don't see how ANYONE could call this game EASY! Also, exactly how are you guys getting so many cells? I've had more than one person talk about how cells are everywhere, but I hardly have enough to clear a room of Arachs.
Anyways, I may not have even seen Cyberdemon yet, but I'm still proud of this! XD
