[H|AoMr|19|100%|YASD] Shattered Dream
« on: September 26, 2015, 04:40 »

After, no kidding, ~50 HMP AoB runs which got as far as...Post-Hell's Arena Chained Court, I raged and went for something that wouldn't piss me off: Angel of Marksmanship. Oh, had I known that I would be even more pissed off now...

I decided to try out MGK this time. Let's just say...I'm impressed, especially with the free reloads.

Had a bit of an up-and-down start, but it all changed once I got to Hell's Armory. Between the Anti-Freak Jackal and the experience, I was more or less set.

Level 6 had an Onyx Mod Pack and a Red Armor in the same vault. It was meant to be.

Hell's Armory had a Nano mod pack and I thought "Can I make Cybernano armor?" It would have required Whizkid 2 which, as time went on, seemed less and less plausible. Oh well. Not only that, but it also had the AF-Jackal and a Blaster. I ultimately learned that the AF-Jackal is a bit dangerous to use as it destroys power-ups, but it's still awesome, whereas the Blaster was unused because it can't be reloaded (Manually or with MGK, that is)...

With Gun Kata and Anti-Freak Jackal in hand, I breezed through the Wall, Abyssal Plains (!) and Spider Lair. The duel with the Cyberdemon could have gone better (Really long reload times), but I pulled out on top eventually.

I was pretty much in a position where I could clear out the rest of the special levels (except UH) and get an awesome YAFV (In hindsight, the Lava Elemental would have been a pain; that's why I've held on to the Blaster I guess)...until level 19.

FUCKING MANCUBI! One of them proceeded to toss me around. Seriously, it felt like all three missiles kept hitting me. The Onyx-modded Red Armor kept me alive...until the last one which knocked me down to 9 hit points...and RIGHT ON TO LAVA, which then killed me...

Graaaargh! I had a dream set-up, I had great equipment, great items and was in a position to win it all. All ended because of one. Fucking. Mancubus. Yes, in hindsight I should have used a Phase Device, but still, to get knocked perfectly onto lava like that...

Literally the only consolation I get from this is Marksman Bronze, which...well, is barely consolation.

 72 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
 58 of those were killed.
 3 didn't read the thermonuclear bomb manual.
 And 5 couldn't handle the stress and committed a stupid suicide.

 6 souls destroyed the Mastermind...
 2 sacrificed itself for the good of mankind.
 3 killed the bitch and survived.
 1 showed that it can outsmart Hell itself.

Argh!  I know well the sting of having a good run end so abruptly.  :|  Sorry to rub it in, but it looks like you were standing in the lava for a couple of turns; that would've been a good time to use one of those 6 large med packs.

On the plus side, you did get an additional consolation that the nuke took that friggin' Mancubus with you!  :)
