Wow, it was an extremely demanding run even on HNTR!
Everyman Platinum is to win Angel of Humanity as a conqueror, that is, clearing every generated levels.

Hell's Arena and Chained Court was not hard. However, in the Chained Court,
you should beware cacodemons that deals plasma damage which can easily penetrate your P-modded red armor.
When face arena master just get berserk and chop him with chainsaw.
You should pick it and use T-mod pack on it.

The most frustrating obstacle was to get through Deimos Lab. I couldn't confront those damn shamblers.
In the first try, I was instantly killed by shamblers, so I prayed to god "Please give me Hell's Armory!"
I don't know how wipe out 2 shamblers in AoHu. Can anyone do this?

Fortunately in the second try, Hell's Armory was generated. No damage clear of Hell's Armory in HNTR is easy.
I got nano+onyx pack there. I decided not to assemble cybernano red armor, since in AoHu, it would not helps so much.
Instead of that, I made red armor+OP and antigrav boots.

The Wall and Abyssal Plains is not that hard if you have enough large shotgun shell packs.

In the Spider's Lair, that damn 2 spiders surrounded me, so I must use homing phase device once,
and made a counterattack to them.

I was hit once by cybie but it was lucky enough to suffer only 8 damage.

Making cerberus boots is a must, it makes thing a lot easier on Lava Pits and overall Hell stages.

Clearing Unholy Cathedral was most technical part: Lost soul? just kill them. Demons? Lure them into lava.
I had Fin2/HR2 and Red Armor+tactical boots+chainsaw(T) and my speed was exactly 0.65s/move and 0.51s/hit.
When confronting Angel of Death, outrun him until he is away from you by 3 tiles, then wait.
If he doesn't get near you, then outrun again. If he get exactly near you, then that is the cue to hit him.
No mistake is allowed because he can instantly kill you even with red armor(PO).

Scavenging Vaults.. easy.

Mortuary was not that hard than I expected, just bombarding BFG to those Archviles ensures you no damage clear in HNTR.
I got an Angelic Badge there (actually it is one of medal, not "real" angelic badge).

In normal hell levels, beware of revenants/mancubus/archviles, since letting them attack to you guarantees an instant death.

Lava Pits was bit hard; cacodemons were bad wusses as they halves armor protection.
I just BFGed lava elemental.

In Angel of Humanity, spider mastermind was kinda hard one since SMM can also instakill you.
Fortunately there was an inv globe at E3M7 and I used lava elemental.
It was not sufficient to kill it so I used cornering to kill it with Intuition 2.


AoHu is hardcore but fun! However I'll never do this again till get all other Platinum badges.

Wow. I've been putting off AoHu for a long time now, I really dislike the odds of getting instakilled by every other enemy. It would help expand my not-getting-hit tactics, though...

[thelaptop]

Man, you've gotta be the best DoomRL player since 2DeviationsOut, considering your 28% success rate with less than 160 attempts.  And just dishing out the pain on really hard challenges.

You should totally do some guides.  It has been a while since anyone did those around here.  =)

[Tormuse]

Wow!  Very nice!  :D  I'm impressed that you did it all and got 100% kills in just over 2 hours!  I definitely would have taken much longer than that.  :)

And yeah, facing Shamblers in AoHu is pretty unnerving.  Dodgemaster is your best asset here.  I think I have a mortem somewhere in which I beat the two Shamblers of Deimos lab in AoHu.  I'll see if I can find it when I get home.  (I'm at work now)

EDIT:  Here it is!  :)  Funny, I described it as unnerving back then too.  :P

[Arron Syaoran]

This is just plain Elite, my friend. I know for certain that I could probably never be able to replicate what you did.

[papilio]

Thelaptop: nope, the reason why my winning rate is high is that I just quit the game using Q button
when I'm sure that my doomguy is totally stuck so there is no way to survive.

I hate the increase of "killed" count :P

[Arron Syaoran]

Somewhere I might've heard that using "Q" might've been worse than getting one's self killed. I've had situations where I couldn't decide which of those 2 ways to go(because of an early screw up I made that most likely cost me my game early on(as in UV or UV AoMr))

[LuckyDee]

I used to be an active "Q-er" until I realised how integral dying is to the game. Judging by papilio's stats though, I'd say I need it more than he does...

[Bloax]

There's no reason to quit, because there's always the astronomically improbable chance of miraculously getting hilariously good rolls and if you don't get them you'll just die anyhow.

[Arron Syaoran]

usually what I try to do when that happens is play until I die. Sometimes this means trying my best, other times it means getting myself killed on purpose(like that one time I tried centurial blade bandit challenge and ended up punching 2 guys to death with a pistol still equipped. Pistol whipping enemies is automatic disqualification for that challenge since it counts as a pistol kill.)
