Hello, the second time to post here.
I just got my last silver badge by clearing Abyssal Plains in Angel of Red Alert!
Because the time limit is harsh, I selected HR2+Rel2+Shoottyman tree and
along clearing abyssal plains I had to keep "running" status always by melting small med-packs and health globes.
I'm not sure that killing agony elemental ensures the badge or I have to wipe out all enemies there,
so I killed all remaining lost souls after killed agony elemental and just after killed the last one used homing phase device.
Damn, it was soooo close! :D
Just after I clear there I got killed on lava by stupid control miss but I never mind.

Among the silver badges, the special ones (I think) are Lava, Brick, Skull, Arachno.
- Brick Silver (Clear Wall/Containment Area on Angel of Berserker/Marksmanship/Shotgunnery)
This was kinda easy. I selected AoB and took 2~3 phase devices + 1 homing phase devices and entered the Wall.
After using 2 phase device I sent into the center of barons, but they were no problem under the chainsaw.
(If I selected Angel of Marksmanship or Shotgunnery, this one would be a pain in the ass)
- Arachno Silver (Clear Spider's Lair on Angel of Darkness)
This was also not that hard. With the plasmar rifle and 200+ power cells
and intuition 2 + cateye, one can easily get all of those spiders.
- Lava Silver (Clear Lava Pits/Mt.Erebus on Angel of Impatience)
This was most, most awful and luck-based among silver badges.
I first selected Marine Survivalist (the standard tree to get through AoI, I think)
and prayed to god to encounter environmental suit in E3M6.
Among first 2 trials I failed to encounter env suit, so I select Technician
to make cerberus boots, but this time my character was so weak (or my skills were so noob), so I got killed before getting there.
The last time I selected Marine Survivalist, finally I got an environmental suit,
and after entering the lava pits (if Mt.Erebus was generated instead, it would be easier and happier.. geez)
I bombarded BFG shots using 500+ plasma cells before getting another env suit.
I entered there with 200% health + 3 Ironman but I could barely escape there with 30% health
by using lava elemental + all env suits + 2~3 plasteel boots.. pfff :(
And here is my progress so far!
Next aim is to get all remaining gold badges! Whew.. each of them seems tough!
The main obstacle I think is Armorer Gold.. I don't know yet how to equip Dragonslayer and Berserker Armor.
(Actually I didn't met them in the game.. maybe I must grind on Aro666)
and Speedrunner Gold seems very hard for me. I hate those speed-running things :|
