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

Went from 40% to 0% in one hit from a Revenant Rocket. That's 32 HP Damage! and that's with 14% left Blue Armor! I usually figure I can take at least one more hit until my health goes below 35%, but the damage taken difference between Mastery/Non-Mastery and Regular Armor vs Modded/Maleks Armor is too much. There needs to be more middleground. And I should be able to take at least 2 hits(unarmored) before I die(that's with full health).

Even with MAD I'm still not doing enough damage to Arch Viles, Mancubus and Revenants with Tactical Shotgun. I had a Plasma Shotgun, maybe I should have used that instead from now on?(As in dump all regular shotgun shells in favour for plasma cells)

I'm thinking about revising the Hobo with a Shotgun Challenge once again(possibly to allow either Fireangel or Onyx Mods, or both).

And one more question: Do enemies deal more damage on higher difficulties?(given that they're not elite/nightmare versions of those enemies) If so, then I don't know what I should've done for armour since only 1 power mod dropped(2 if you count the one i wasted on regular shotgun in pursuit of elephant gun), and I don't remember any bulk mods except one that was used on blue armor(didn't have red armor at the time, the blue armor died at one point). No Rare mods at all spawned.

Whether or not you want to allow indestructible/recharging armour is up to you; depends how challenging you want it.  :)

Went from 40% to 0% in one hit from a Revenant Rocket. That's 32 HP Damage!...

Oof, looking at the last few messages, it looks like he fired two rockets at once.  :|  Revenants are fast and if you don't take traits and equipment that boost your speed, sometimes they get a double move on you.  This was just unlucky timing.

Even with MAD I'm still not doing enough damage to Arch Viles, Mancubus and Revenants with Tactical Shotgun...

Son of a Bitch trait is a huge help here.  Luckily, MAD doesn't block it.  ;)

Do enemies deal more damage on higher difficulties?(given that they're not elite/nightmare versions of those enemies)

I believe the higher the difficulty, the higher the chance to hit and at N! they also move faster.

...If so, then I don't know what I should've done for armour...

I see you have red armour at 100% durability in your inventory.  That probably would have saved your life in this case, since it confers fire protection.  (Not sure why you would be wearing 12% blue armour when you have a better alternative)  Also, it looks like there was about a mile of safe territory to the right; I think it would've done you some good to retreat to a safe distance, possibly behind that crate there, so he can't shoot you back, then pelt him from outside his visual radius.  Uses more ammo, sure, but you've got several hundred shells there, plus a plasma shotgun to fall back on if somehow you ran out of shells.

Enemies' accuracy become much higher on UV and N! difficulty (+2, that is, roughly 15~25%).
So chaingunners and arachnotrons are tougher and more nasty.

Also in N! difficulty, player get speed -10% penalty, and in monsters' AI, attack chance is increased by +50%.
--> Imps burst fireballs like crazy and you cannot outrun them easily.
--> Shouldn't ever face directly arachnotrons and mancubi, and if face them, you must get close to them asap and use plasma rifle.

This gives me an idea, I'm gonna do Ao666 on HMP as a Pistol user(for the lone gunman/vash badge i left in) for now. Meanwhile I'll consider nano mods and fireangel, depending on move/firespeed of MAD and Shottyhead.

Here's another YASD for the Same Challenge: Trying to cross lava just to get to a bridge is obviously suicide. There was one Napalm barrel on the bridge, and one tile of lava between land and the bridge. I stepped on the tile of lava at 80+% Health, then I was instakilled by a combo of Revenant Rocket, an exploding Napalm Barrel and standing in lava. At least I got farther than my MAD run.(quick speed is arguably better than slightly more damage) Also, I got Hobo Bronze and Copper as well. I know one of the attacks between the Mancubus and the Revenant missed, but i figured it was the mancubus that missed since revenants never miss.

Also, I'm no longer a Hell Baron after this Run. Now I'm the much-loathed Arch Vile.
