[N!|AoMC|95%|YAFW] Guaranteed DS is easier than you think

The misleading information was of course part of the reference. My counter would be wayyyyyy higher, otherwise :)
But while it remains pretty hard, I find this difficulty interesting. Kinda looks like "the game's highest challenge" to me, which is very subjective, with the ton of badges asking for ridiculous demonstrations of skill.
Yet, since we both seem to suck at avoiding damages, I have to remind you that removing max carnage gives you the possibility to dodge, which leaves you with way more strategies than "just cornershooting". Thats one of the reasons why I never play this "challenge". It does not only makes the game overall easier, but also puts you on rails, removing too much of the gameplay for me. In fact, it may be like INT2 : at some stage, I've taken the habit to pick it everytime, but once the monsters behaviour was mastered, it was more productive to skip it, like I quickly skipped MCE.
Bah, I digress, I digress. You know that already anyway, so why would I even try to argue ?
I'd better ask you what you think of replacing a few late levels (at least, those stupid SOB) with TaN or REL. I doubt BER would be worth it, but TaN looks like a good late pick to me. Is SOB picked for any precise reason here ?

I agree with you, but Cateye blocks Reloader, Brute, and Tough as Nails, so those weren't options for me. Honestly, I had run out of things to upgrade by the end of this game; my only options were Eagle Eye, (useless in AoMC) Triggerhappy, (just makes me waste more ammo for enemies that are already dying quickly) Son of a Bitch, and Ironman. I didn't want to get SoB because I was already doing plenty of damage and I didn't want to risk doing so much that I start knocking enemies back, because then I wouldn't be able to hit them with the full volley of my rapid weapons. Even Hellrunner wasn't something I cared about at that point, because I had the Anti-gravity boots, so I was going plenty fast.
Evilpotatoe:
Ah, forgot it blocks reloader too. But is it really worth it ? You were probably OP enough long before MCE, and I doubt it was really useful at that point.
Personally, I nearly always play masterless now, to avoid blocks, but... I guess it doesn't matter too much at that level, indeed.
And MCE remains a cool pick.
Tormuse:
*Shrug* I really could have gone either way. I agree with your sentiment about masterless games; I think they are frequently underrated. Still, sometimes it's fun to take a master trait just for something different and fun. :)
