Inspired by Icy's escapades, I thought it'd be prudent to brush up on my own skills once more. I have a second copy of The Game That Shall Not Be Named running on another machine, which it turns out I only played 3 games on some two and a half years ago. I wanted to do A100, but since I was too light for that one, I thought I might as well try and get myself shot really quickly and play MSs on AoMr. However, apart from having to look up a couple of assemblies, it actually went pretty well. Crap I even squeezed an Untouchable Badge out of this one, lord knows how. I can count the number of times I got that one on the fingers of one hand. After a horrible accident at the sawmill.
Anywho, I was hoping to find some kind of awesome pistol of course, but no such luck. I started out with the speedloader, and switched to a high power version once MSs kicked in and I had enough ammo chains to back me up. I skipped the arena - naturally - but did go for the Chained Court, the Military Base, the Amory and the Halls of Carnage - after finding a ballistic shield next to the stairs leading to it. Afterwards, I found the duelist armor to slap my onyx mod on, which gives a nice combination of speed and guaranteed protection.
I was dreading Cybie pretty badly, until this happened on Deimos 7:
And then the bastard was only two squares out of my FoV to top it off. After that bit of luck, I decided to just go for it and not get shot too badly anymore. In the end I left a vile and a couple of revenants alive on Hell 6 (lots of lava and a teleporter). I probably could have taken them, but in this case I'd rather beat spidey than risk throwing it all away on that unholy threesome. Two near deaths - the shambler and a revenant - but enough med-packs and cover to retreat and regroup.
Thrilling game all in all, considering I didn't go for the easiest possible game and still beat it pretty sweetly. Yes, my standards are pretty low. I've learned to love myself for it, and you can too. Time to give that A100 another go. If I ever have about 8 hours to spare.
P.S. what's the best build for AoD? That's just about the only challenge mode I've put off for more than five years now. Tips would be welcome.
