DoomRL > Post Mortem
[U|AoMr|89%|YAFW] I don't feel any greater respect to anything than this pistol!
ih8regin:
After a successful Ao100 run with pistols I have decided to start tackling weapon challenges. Of course, started with AoMr, as I've got quite some experience with them pistols. First run went decent up to somewhere like lv14, with a P-modded combat pistol, and then all of a sudden I've got killed, cornered or something. That hurt! Several more tries, and I have done it with a blaze.

I wonder if I should have used Fin-Fin-WK instead of both spending levels to Int-Int and SoB-SoB. But as I have managed to find in Ao100, knockback rules, but you need to hit stuff to protect yourself with knockback. So I ended up with a starting P-modded pistol (with a backup of B-modded "really starting" pistol hanging in there in case this one would overheat or something), an ammo chain, and a powered red armor fresh from Hell's Armory. Lucky find I say, beats combat pistol in usefulness. You WILL get hit in Hell, regardless of what you do, except for maybe 2Dev or who won N! damageless. And there, weapons matter little, armor matters a lot.
One good thing I had is jump at Mortuary with a homie and about 20 turns of invulnerability, that was even enough to wreck a couple of viles that went right after me - two or three, still once anything fatter started appearing, I went outside. That device allowed me to tackle JC - and with an ordinary pistol, and without sufficient back-up, this was quite an ordeal. Good thing that if you shoot at 0.2s, the armor starts to repair itself before you get hit again, so it lasted me the whole battle. Also a nice thing that I've stumbled on a very lucky ammo chain in Hell lv7, where I first decided to bail out due to lack of ammo, but then seeing a chaingunner (YAY!) revived my hopes to clear the level - still something hid out of my sight. Oh well.
Oh yep, I've got Arena Gold with this run - me VERY happy. Really, people, how to fight on the Arena damageless at all? I only managed this feat once, and with a combat shotgun from a lucky lv2 vault.
And finally. At this particular moment in time, I don't believe I have a healthier or more deeply-felt respect for any object in the universe than this here pistol. Not even to a nuke-BFG.
dougjoe2e:
Nice run! I've only managed AoMr once on UV and it took a *lot* of attempts. As for INT vs. FIN/WK, personally I'm a sucker for WK and modding things like crazy (and MSs to help get that much-needed knockback) but hey, whatever works, right? :)
ZicherCZ:
Wow. UV AoMr full win, with no combat pistol, no Sharpshooter and no master trait either? That's some good stuff.

Initially I aimed for MCe build, but then found out I badly need them HR/DM, then I felt the need for EE, then lv12 hit and I went for more SoG, and boom, game ended. Maybe I'm too fond of DM to consider not taking it, unless for melee, and fighting Cybie ranged literally spells DM for me, as I would otherwise have to tank waaay too many rockets.
Why not MSs? I was very fond of MCe with a pistol, but MCe is not for pistols early, TH spells chainguns and stuff. It appears even an UV game doesn't let you get enough levels to get MCe and high SoG. Maybe I could get some if I'd clear CC then Vaults, as I missed both of them obviously, but I was afraid to go with just SoG3 and Int vs them barons, and without means for corpse removal this would mean serious troubles vs Arena Master later, if I'd wreck them. So, I left them alone. Obvious other misses were Skulls/Planes, either place is not for pistols, The Wall/Containment as I had no phases, and frankly I'm not fond of jumping into a huge Baron crossfire anyway, UC as it's melee only, also I went to skip Spider Lair trying to not mes up a good run, and the BFG is of no help for AoMr. Lava Pits? Maybe, but elemental heals, and running after him across lava asks for good boots. And there was no Military Base. So nowhere to get much xp.

Also, no Dualgunner and also, also, no Eagle Eye until late game!
Interesting choices, but they obviously worked for you, so kudos on your Marksman Gold! :) Masterless builds are frequently underrated. Funny thing, I looked up my own first Marksman Gold and that was also masterless. (7 years ago!) :o
