So, I recently got a bit of hate mail from someone who didn't appreciate me withholding the secret of how to wield Dragonslayer.  I'm not going to lose any sleep over it, but it reminded me that I've been meaning to try to see if I could wield the DS while playing with a Malicious Blades build, so that's what I did.  :)

I confirmed what I had been wondering that the DS counts as a knife and if you wield a second knife in your prepared slot, you hit with both of them.  (If they can survive a hit from the DS, that is; by the time I maxed out the damage, the only things that could survive long enough to get hit by the second knife were Nightmare Arch-Viles, Agony Elementals, and Cyberdemons)  Bonus:  If the second knife was the Butcher's Cleaver and the BC landed the killing blow, the whole attack takes zero time!  :D  Extra special bonus:  Using the Whirlwind ability makes it hit each of the 8 enemies surrounding you with both knives!  :o  (Well, again, theoretically it would, if any of them survive the first hit from DS; it took some patience to test that, trying to lure an Agony Elemental and Cyberdemon together)  :P

I also found a funny bug that if you do the Whirlwind ability and get knocked out of position in the middle of it, (like if you hit a barrel and it knocks you back) you still strike at the 8 squares around your original position.  I managed to knock myself into one of those squares and got the message "You hit you."  :D

Spoiler: Screenshot (click to show/hide)

(It says "You hit you" twice because I hit myself with both DS and BC)  :)

I was reeeeeally tempted to see if I could kill myself by hitting myself with the Dragonslayer just to see if I could get a funny message or something, but I decided I'd much rather win after all.  :)

I wore the Inquisitor set for most of the run, and so all my resistances were 90% and up, so nothing could really touch me.  I was pretty tempted to take advantage of the fact that I was a technician to turn that Cybernetic Armour into Nanofibre Skin Armour, or Cybernano Armour just for the sake of getting even more ridiculous levels of protection, but that would have meant that I would be unable to wear the Berserker Armour and I wouldn't be able to get the Apostle Insignia.  Maybe another time.  :)

I was reeeeeally tempted to see if I could kill myself by hitting myself with the Dragonslayer

You'd better try this with a marine :
you hit you
you die
yum, fresh blood !
you undie

... well, I guess it wouldn't work.

Haha, I wonder if that would work, healing myself from killing myself.  Now, I'm really tempted to try it!  :D

Hmm...  A known trouble-maker or something?

Well, this answers some questions i thought would never be answered. That's a really impressive run you did there, with all the craziness of having insane weapons.

The whole DS/BA thing was badly handled I feel. Either have hints that are discoverable ingame like the full win hints, or at the very least, dont require it for some badges. Thats a real kick in the teeth, as well as not being able to find it ANYWHERE online. I used to be real salty about not being able to pick it up, so I understand his comment

PS Im not gonna watch anime for hints.

Short answer: yes.

You're not the only one :)

While I can understand the initial idea, I feel it just went too far.  With conditions changing (insignificantly, from what I guess) between several versions just to "revive the secret"... not, and this, to a quite ridiculous point now (initial "conditions" made sense, but what about the current ones ? ... seriously !)

Add to this that I barely ever found this crap : 2 or 3 times in my Ao666 game, and not more in some other. And thats ALL, over about 200 won games and 1000 failed ones !  This, contributes to make it a really frustrating item.


note : I know the conditions, but didn't have any opportunity to grab the thing in a serious game.  I also tried to create a few, but I suck at avoiding damages with a low level char vs recurring waves of monsters, and screwd my save of 2013 recently, so... I still don't have any badge/medal involving it.
I won't put too much efforts in getting a weapon which negates 2/3 of my screen colors channels anyway, but having it deny a part of the game remains annoying.


Oh, and btw, if you want to get some "howTo", well... I prefer playing fair with KK, even if I disagree with that choice, but you'd get all the informations you need with a few searches and deductions :)

Oh, me too.  I understand where the anger comes from; that's why I put a (hopefully) kindly, understanding response.  Still would've been nice to not be called an "asshole," though.  :)

Also, I've been meaning to ask...  Does anyone know the true action time of the Whirlwind ability?  The Wiki says it takes "the cost of 8 melee attacks minus 5.0s," but if that's true, then with Finesse, it should take zero time, (or close to zero) but whenever I used it in the above game, the enemies got multiple attacks in, which suggests that it actually takes more than a second.

The same with the Hell Staff; any time I used it, enemies got multiple attacks in, which suggests that it's taking more than a second, (I found that out the very, very hard way) and being a technician in this game didn't seem to make a difference.

It would probably take a code dive to answer these questions, but does anyone know?
