Hello! Thought I'd introduce myself with a mortem (I hope it's formatted right, bit of a forum dunce..) Anyway I discovered DoomRL in December and have been playing it A LOT - to the exclusion of all else :). I bought a shiney new laptop with GFX card and everything and I'm just playing DoomRL.... I love the simplicity of the game paired with the difficulty of mastery.

Anyway - this run was fun :). I died LOADS of times trying to do a UV run of Ao100. If I could get past the 1st level (don't laugh) then I usually ended up dying around 12-18 before I got properly in my stride. This run I was pretty lucky I guess, with not too many 'oh shit' moments, although I do really like nano packs and didn't get one until quite late into this run, had Malek's armour to make up for it, plus a burst nuclear plasma rifle is absolute class with ammochain... 52 barrages of 10 or something before recharging HAHA eat plasma Hellspawn!

Having said that the nano-super shotty is maybe even better, just because of the area of effect and (maybe I'm just lazy) it's really easy to cornershoot or just radar shoot everywhere and basically not get hit if you're careful.

Anyway feeling very victorious and glad to get a Platinum Badge. Actually I have the technician platinum already (and diamond) but I'm guessing they are the easiest to get? And does anyone have any suggestions on a good platinum to go for next? I love the Ao100 challenge but probably won't play it again for a while.. :)

Also one final thing... I was going for 100% kills as other runs I've done I've kind of been running for my life for most of the later game, and when i nuked a level (for the first time) I don't think the kills were counted? Is this right or did I read the @ screen wrong? It doesn't matter as I had to run for my life from a bunch of Shamblers right near the end anyway. They suck.

[LuckyDee]

Welcome, welcome. Looks like you have nothing to be ashamed about, I personally have been mucking about on HNTR for a year and a half before even considering an attempt at UV, and contrary to HNTR UV tends to kill you. A lot. So yeah, great run! Bet Ammochain was a godsend :)

Nuke kills only count if you're still on the level when it goes off, so that might answer your question. And with a Hyperblaster and those traits, I dare say going one on one with a Shambler shouldn't be that much of a problem, as long as you don't give it a chance to regenerate.

Anyway, the 100% kill rate is mostly just a pride/honour thing. Most achievements don't require you to take kill rates into consideration at all, but we all know how sweet it is to be able to frag em all :)

Time for UV ArchAo666?

[Thiebs]

Time for UV ArchAo666?

There is never enough time for ArchAo666. Seriously, though, congrats! Yet another player on here that's better than me, hehe! ;)

[Ridonk]

That makes sense, thanks.

And yeah if it was one shambler he would have gotten the plasma treatment, but there was about 10 of them and I didn't fancy dying on lvl 97 so I did a runner :)

I have tried Ao666 (mostly to get the technician badges) and it's on my list but I'm actually put off because I don't think you get any badges unless you finish it on N! ... So it might have to wait a (loooooong) while.

Thanks Thiebs - we can all improve though right? :)

[ZicherCZ]

... playing for a month ... first post ... UV Ao100 win ... nearly YAAM ... does not compute ....
*BANG*
OK, sanity regained.

First things first - congrats! You might have had your luck - but you used it well, and that's what counts.

For next Platinum (not counting Longinus Platinum via Sereging), I would suggest a UV AoMr 100% with a Sharpshooter build. Sharpshooters may have a tough start, but once they get rolling ...

And by the way - if going for YAAM, check the "@" screen - among other things it shows the number of enemies killed and generated, making it easy to track your progress.

I really like the idea of Sharpshooters... You're not wrong about the start though, I don't think I've ever even *got* Sharpshooter. Having said that I haven't really played with pistol builds too much. I'm assuming the best way is get Son of a Gun x3 first, then Eagle Eye x3?

This exact approach worked very well for me (up to a UV AoMr 100% full win, no less). With the starting T-mod, that's 0.32s firing speed achieved during (and, with some luck, _before_) the Arena on UV. Also be prepared for _lots_ of camping instead of active exploring if you want to play the early game safe. Computer/Tracking maps help, but they are not that common.

[Thiebs]

In my opinion, not always. You want to keep your distance with that build, so the accuracy is pretty big. I'd say that the first two SoG are pretty much a given, but by the third, take your loadout into consideration. If you have a sufficiently powerful pistol, the extra accuracy would go further. But if you're still stuck with the standard fair, I'd personally go for the third SoG and use aimed shots at extreme ranges.

[Tormuse]

First off, congrats on an awesome run!  :D  For your next platinum (or Diamond?)  Might I recommend Shottyman, since you seemed to like the spread of that Super Shotgun.  :)  It would mean moving up to Nightmare!, but with all the extra shells from reviving sergeants, you can afford to do a lot more radar-shooting.  I suggest an Army of the Dead build, since armour-piercing shotguns are devastating, especially with a few levels of SOB.

As for the Sharpshooter build, like Thiebs, I tend to favour getting EE before SoG 3.  I know some people will disagree, but I find that I miss just a little too often otherwise.

Regarding nukes, make sure you are invulnerable when it goes off, otherwise you'll die!  I wouldn't want you to find out the hard way.  ;)

EDIT:  Also, I agree with your sentiment about the Shambler cave.  I've encountered them on two occasions, and both times, I was lucky to be invulnerable, because all those lightning bolts flying around look like they would be big trouble.  :o

[Ridonk]

Hmmm.... Nightmare is scary. I'm not sure I'll be playing that seriously anytime soon (or ever! :D), I like demons I shoot to stay dead. I think shotguns maybe my preferred weapon of choice - barring super dooper guns - but I've got mixed feelings about MAD because you can't have Whizkid. That didn't bother me at first but now I've sampled the delights of advanced and master assemblies I don't like to go without :)... Having said that going back to basics will be a good thing probably.

Currently having a reasonable bash with a Sharpshooter... nearly actually have the trait. Not sure exactly how I'm going to do the anomaly - probably will die in a fire.

Quickly retreating behind the first door works fine, it will take you down from 150% to 70% IIRC. Phase device might also help, even if it throws you to Bruisers. Faster boots help like always.

[Ridonk]

Managed to get a lucky phase behind the Bros! Got massacred by spiders and other dudes at the start point of Deimos 1!

Fun and games.
