DRL: Xtreme Arena
Tormuse:
Phobos Anomaly is freakin' tough. I die there a lot too. The only cover is a room that's so tiny that any shot that flies in there splashes and tosses you around, and those Demons are damn troublesome, especially when multiple of them gang up on you.
My advice?... Try to eliminate as many of the Demons as you can first, if possible, using the Chaingun or Chainsaw (if you have Finesse and/or Brute) or Plasma Rifle. (if you're lucky enough to find one) Nothing messes me up like trying to bear down on one of the Bruisers and having a Demon flank me. Stay in the starting room if enemies threaten to overwhelm you, but don't get stuck in there because there's no room in there to avoid splash, so if you see an opportunity to move out where there's more space to maneuver, do so. Try to isolate enemies to take them out one at a time and retreat to the start if too many start coming at you at once.
That's pretty much what I do; most of the time, I'm just flying by the seat of my pants on that level. It's really easy for things to go wrong. And yeah, you can see me pull it off twice in parts 1 and 4 of my videos; just click the link where it says "Phobos Anomaly" to jump to that part of the video. :)

Thanks, that helps... I might go back to my old DRL policy of avoiding special levels like the plague, then, lol.
I have a new question, now. MaiZure, why would you build secret tunnels into the walls of the Chained Court, and then lure me in with a "Something Extremely Valuable" or whatever message? I am now long lost to where no pathway goes...

Wish I could remember exactly, but I do recall that there is a network of hidden tunnels but you're never stuck. I think the tunnels just twist and turn a lot, but there are some fixed goodies in the network at the bottom left. I don't think unique items drop in the tunnel though. One I know that unique items can be destroyed without you know about it.

Watch out, MaiZure, Sereg just beat your career average! :D

Wait... what? There's a secret passage? O_o I thought the "something valuable" message was referring to the supercharge/megasphere/armour in the doorway!

It probably is...I haven't seen this level in years :)
I was thinking that if a unique is generated, I doubt it would be in the passage.
