I messed up the recording. It wasn't full screen so I had to zoom in afterward and the resolution wasn't good enough so the video is pretty blurry.

I also got shottyman diamond and daredevil diamond.

I really wanted the full win and almost threw the run away trying to get it.

I got a partial win for dying to JC. I think this is the first time I've died to him. All the other times I've fought him I've had a very strong build. I forgot the part where he has 5 armor so medium range shots frequently do 1 damage. If I remembered that I would've gotten as many point blank double shotty blasts as possible, at any cost. But I also felt the need to run away from the barons and revenants.

Average point blank double shotgun damage is 18x2 -> (1 range) 16x2 -> (5 armor) 6x2, so about 12 damage per right click. So, about 42 right clicks, which (with a shell box) takes ~.26 seconds per shot and ~.15 seconds per reload (would be shorter if I remembered to bulk mod my double shotgun), so .4 seconds per shot and a kill in 17 seconds + the time it takes to chase him down every time he teleports or knocks me back (and use items like med-packs).

This run is going to be a lot harder in 0.9.9.9 since you can't farm hundreds of shotgun shells from one sergeant and they don't show up consistently. What if, in addition to starting with a shell box, you also start with 2 stacks of shells? Or even more, since the 50% kills you have to get include very tough enemies like barons, mancubi, and arch-viles.
At least in this version it's pretty easy, reset for a decent run, farm a lot of shells, get intuition 2, and because shottyhead's requirements are individually good perks you get strong level-ups.

Another note about doing this badge in 0.9.9.9 is that it did already get its kill requirement bumped up to 75%, and the proposal to increase it to 100% still remains, as in my testing of it, I still found it too easy to get for an Angelic, only taking me a couple quick tries to do a 100% run for it (granted, that was back in the first 0.9.9.9 beta that really only had the Nightmare changes, before the Enraged Timer was added and all the other big changes of 0.9.9.9 were done, but that was also before proper infighting was added, so if it remained 75%, you could probably still easily get it by rushing through with invulns and would have the option to skip any annoying stragglers or a bad floor once you build up enough of a buffer).

And yeah against Carmack with shotguns, you should be getting in his face, with 2-tiles away being particularly optimal as that lets you blast away all his spawns too while sacrificing only a point or two of damage on Carmack. Shottyhead especially excels at this and probably has the easiest Carmack fight of any non-melee build (not that Carmack really threatened any build, but with the buff he got in 0.9.9.9 of his spawns activating faster, builds that can't quickly kill them like the aforementioned Shottyhead or melee builds may have a bit of speed bump on harder difficulties).

Anyway, I've updated the Badge Hunters thread, nice job joining the triple Angelic club, there aren't more than a half-dozenish players who have done so.

Heck yeah. If you got it easily in 0.9.9.9 then my ammo concerns were probably unfounded. That's the only thing I would've been concerned about when bumping up the requirement. I guess it also helps that enemies don't respawn in your face and that you don't have to kill them again.
