Another Journey to 100%
Icy:
Day 9
Today I decided to work on all of the grindier stuff, including monster kills, collecting 3 of every special item, and going for Gutts' Heart.
There isn't too much overall to show off since most of the grinds aren't completely finished and they themselves don't give too many rewards. I was playing Angel of Berserk and Overconfidence, switching between Marine and Scout based on how I felt like playing. One interesting run where I grabbed Azrael's Scythe and went for Gargulec Medal was able to push all the way to JC with another nuke in hand and so I blew him up. Just before doing so, I was curious to see if Barons would spawn if I had used Whisper of Death, and unsurprisingly, it did:

I also had a run where I got Hellwave Pack on floor 1 and decided to test it on the Angel of Death. It was a pretty disappointing result:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
One very odd thing I saw that I had never seen before was a group of Shotgun Guys and Commandos were camping inside a vault, similar to how Demons do when they get stuck and even entering the doorway, they refused to move.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
After clearing it, I think I found out why:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
My assumption is because of Berserker Armor being there to trigger them trying to grab it but being unable to, effectively froze them in place. I wonder if this could be a viable strategy for giftdropping?
On another run, I found Medical Armor and decided to play things out more thoroughly on the off-chance of a Nano or Onyx Pack, in order to make self-healing armor. The idea would be to jump in lava repeatedly and get Iron Skull, instead of using a Vampyre strategy.
To my amazement, I actually found an Onyx Pack!
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
I created this nice setup where Medical Armor (O) would heal me up to 26%, stepping in lava would drop me to 2%, and I could easily spam it. I positioned myself such that I could hold left arrow key, smack into a wall, click on my mouse to go back, and repeat:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
However...
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Medical Armor (O) loses durability!!!
I was quite shocked to discover this! The display in the menu also showed Durability at 100, but this is clearly not the case and I could no longer use my strategy for Iron Skull. I am extremely curious now if Nano Pack would fix this and actually work? If so, it would mean that a Nano Pack actually has an advantage over Onyx Pack for armors. And if not, then that would mean the only realistic way to get Iron Skull would be Vampyre. Very interesting!
On the note of Iron Skull, I misclicked Angel of Confidence once and learned that you start with a Chainsaw in Deimos as well, and not just in Hell. For some reason, I thought you started with a Combat Knife, perhaps because the Chainsaw doesn't start in your hands. So I decided to try a couple runs of that to create a Pain Elemental blocking setup and got this:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Now, this was working, and I even had Butcher's Cleaver for added protection, but the fact that the Pain Elemental's position meant Lost Souls spawning behind the building made this very inefficient, so I stopped trying and decided I'll do it on another run another time.
And that's all that there was today. I tried a lot for Gutts' Heart but never found a Dragonslayer. On that note, for 3 of every Special, I am only missing 2 Dragonslayers and 1 Frag Shotgun to get Armorer Diamond Badge, as I found a mass pile of everything else through all my runs. I also finished getting 50000 kills and now only need 18 Cyberdemon and 45 JC kills to finish that ranking. I'll likely continue these grinds some more and try to get them done.
Icy:
Day 10
Today, I continued grinding to get Gutts' Heart, but Dragonslayer just wouldn't show up for me. Instead, I ended up getting a pile of other stuff.
Here's a really interesting floor on one of my Gutts' Heart attempts:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
After a number of attempts, I decided to finish up my Silver Badges. I went with Skull Silver Badge, which is pretty trivial.

Next was Brick Silver Badge. I took advantage of Angel of Confidence and Hell's Armory/Deimos Lab to try and make Plasmatic Shrapnel. On one run, I found this:

Next, I went for Masochist Diamond Badge, which would also give me a handful of others. Combining with Max Carnage makes it not too bad so long as you're careful, and you get enough experience for Dodgemaster before the Cyberdemon. I also try to adjust my experience such that I get a level up on the kill so I'm at 200% entering Hell.
On floor 2, I made a dash for a Homing Phase Device:

And it lead to a bit of a mess:

Floor 3 was much nicer:

The next few levels were stairdives and on floor 6, I encountered an interesting situation:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
I likely had enough Invulnerability to run through most of floor 7, but a Homing Phase Device and then out on this floor should last long enough too. The issue was there was a pile of Nightmare Demons and I was worried about getting walled in. I thought about it and opted to skip the Homing Phase Device.
And it seems it was the right call:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
There was unfortunately a pack of Archviles, Revenants, and other nasty monsters around the stairs:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
And I was repeatedly one tile away from entering Dis, but I couldn't get a nice angle since the stairs weren't against a wall and I had enemies from all sides knocking me all over the place. My health was looking grim:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Maybe?
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Nope.

It sucks, but that's how it goes sometimes.
On a new run, I had an interesting spawn of monsters:

I also had a big helping hand for Phobos Anomaly:

Even if the run didn't finish, I really wanted to get to the Cyberdemon since then I could get Gatekeeper Diamond Badge, but unfortunately I died part way through Deimos.
Late into another run, I had this on Hell floor 4:

The rest from there was easy, and I was able to use Butcher's Cleaver to make quick work of the Spider Mastermind.

Later, I had noticed that I got an extra medal from my Masochist run and realized it was my first Untouchable Medal, not realizing I didn't get those already, so I decided to go for Untouchable Cross on ITYTD.
It's very easy to get, despite even playing rather poorly. I had 45 damage early on after pushing a barrel too far into acid, and other dumb mistakes. Nonetheless, I got Untouchable Cross:

More Gutts' Heart, still no Dragonslayer...
Next, I decided to go for some of the Hell's Arena medals, starting with Chessmaster's Cross. I tried some runs with Impatience and Light Travel, but later switch to Impatience and Max Carnage. One run had a really nice floor 2:

Some more attempts later, I found a really helpful item in a vault:

And next door found another!

I had this absolutely insane arsenal for Hell's Arena and knew that there was no way I wouldn't get the medal, barring astronomically bad luck or poor play. I was thinking that with the amount of rockets that I could potentially go for a damageless run and grab Hell Arena Pwnage Medal at the same time.

With a good start and helpful rockets, it was very easy:

I was playing quite slow and had a bit of a bad spot for the second round:

Day 11
My first target today was Iron Skull, just to get it over with. I played using Angel of Berserk with Light Travel and used a Vampyre build, searching for a Pain Elemental I could block.
Once I built up the needed experience, I created this setup:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
However, it was horribly slow compared to simply clicking a single square, so I cleared out the area, nearly dying in doing so, pushed some barrels into the spot to create a tunnel, but then I accidentally misclicked:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
I had already spent a ton of time and was exactly a quarter of the way upon leaving, hoping that I would be able to create another setup.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
I almost died in the next level with unfortunate monster positioning after using a Homing Phase Device:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
After some struggling, I found another Pain Elemental I could use for a setup:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

And almost died yet again:

Once in position, the rest was easy and actually fast, relatively speaking. I would camp at the far left to raise my health, then step to the right to quickly deplete it and repeat until I reached 10000 damage.

I think the point is made after even just 5000 damage, but I'm sure I'm not the first to complain about it. It certainly can't be good for either my wrist or mouse, but in any case, it's all done now.

I decided to try more for Gutts' Heart and on my second attempt, I finally found Dragonslayer:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
It's a little sketchy to receive it on the first floor in fear of dying before reaching the Spider Mastermind, but I do need 2 anyway, so I wasn't too concerned overall. I played it very cautiously and the game didn't give me any difficult situations.
I was also tempted to just blow up Dis with a nuke because I believe so long as I was holding Dragonslayer on the Spider Mastermind's death, it should still give me the medal, but I didn't want to risk being incorrect and just whacked her instead.

The next thing I did was started a Max Carnage Angel of 100 to hopefully find the last Frag Shotgun and Dragonslayer I need. I opted to go for a masterless melee/shotgun hybrid. Honestly though, I would almost consider including Berserker in a build to not necessarily be for melee purposes because having berserk kick in when struck hard is extremely helpful in sketchy situations, especially with Max Carnage. Mancubi go from potentially killing you on false move to being fairly harmless. Three traits is an expensive cost though.
Early on, I found some very helpful items:

I also had this amusing message:

After I had most of my build put together, I started stairdiving and unfortunately didn't find either item. I at least got 2 Cyberdemon kills though.

I decided to go for more Medals instead. I went for Every Soldier's Medal and Spider-Killer Cross by combining Angel of Humanity and Confidence. With some careful play, they're pretty easy, but I was having terrible luck of getting the correct levels, as well as a Rocket Launcher.
One stacked run had no wall-breaking items, but I did have a Phase Device with Invulnerability too, but...
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
No luck.
I also had a big mish-mash of items, being indecisive on what to use:

On another run, I found this awesome weapon:

But unfortunately rolled Containment Area:

And on the road to Spider's Lair, I found this:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
I read through the code and I believe that the Medal is rewarded upon killing everything, while most everything else is rewarded upon a cleared exit, so I think nuking should work. Unfortunately...
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Shortly after, I got the same awesome weapon again:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
And rolled Containment Area once again...
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Annoyed, I decided to look more thoroughly into the code and you actually can get Every Soldier's Medal through Containment Area, so I wish I hadn't quit out of some of the better runs I had earlier. I still cleared it without much trouble at least. Naturally, I decided to continue the run and rolled Spider's Lair:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
While the Plasma Shotgun is awesome for The Wall/Containment Area, I was destroying some of my cover here, and opted to just go with Tactical Shotgun.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
I took things slow and camped at the bottom, waiting for Arachnatrons to teleport in. Fortunately, I was never swarmed and easily picked them all off. I decided to continue the run further to grab a Cyberdemon kill, possibly.
For most of the fight, I dodged all his rockets as I had Tactical Boots, but was struck hard near the end of it:

Despite healing, the second shot killed me just as the Cyberdemon was almost dead:

And indeed I got both Medals! Looking at the requirements in-game, it does say Every Soldier's Medal can be done on either The Wall or Containment Area, but Spider-Killer Cross is strictly Spider's Lair. It seems that only the wiki is wrong.
So overall, I gained 4 of my missing 7 Medals to reach the 40 count, which is nice. I think I'm going to start a 666 game next to try to finish getting Frag Shotgun and Dragonslayer, possibly also getting my last 10 Cyberdemon kills needed.
Icy:
Day 12
I decided to play a game of 666 with the goals of finding a Dragonslayer, a Frag Shotgun, and killing 10 Cyberdemons. Like before, I went with a masterless, Shotgun/Melee hybrid and plowed through basically everything, especially once I built a Biggest BFG.
I found a Super Shotgun quite early:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
And later on, found the Frag Shotgun:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
I also killed 10 Cyberdemons quite quickly and started skipping most of the many others I found.
Despite that though, I went through the entirety of 666 floors and never found Dragonslayer. I also never found a single Nano Pack either, though granted, I did start stairdiving after awhile, but I was never able to complete my setup.
Pretty disappointing...

I decided to go for Hunter Diamond Badge next, which isn't too bad, just need some luck. After a small handful of tries, I managed to get it rather quickly.
I entered Limbo with Invulnerability and a Phase Device, and warped quite close to the Nuclear BFG. It helps a lot with either taking out the Spider Mastermind with no worry of ammo, or clearing a regular floor that could otherwise be difficult.

Floor 6 was sketchy with what was usually a favorable Pain Elemental cave, as I went the wrong way and was getting overwhelmed:

I then chose to get Hunter Gold Badge since I had Platinum and Diamond now. My strategy was to quickly blast through the levels and create a setup to farm for kills. I had a good run going here on floor 5, but rolled a maze with puddles of lava, which had the howling alarm:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
I went downward to start farming Shotgun Guys and buffed up my kills so that I could hopefully just run to the end:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Now, there were a pile of enemies waiting for me, a horizontal river of lava below, and I didn't have much to work with, so despite taking the time to farm, I wasn't expecting to complete this run.
Around a corner, I had a really fussy Archvile here:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
My plan was to kill another monster, have it revived so that it would no longer be targeting me, then have it step into the corner in front of the Archvile, forcing the Archvile to appear in my view where I could safely pick it off. It took awhile to get the manipulation to work, but it did work:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Unfortunately, almost immediately after, I got killed:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
In a later run that was mostly unremarkable, I got up to floor 6 with an Invulnerability and was able to find the stairs a little later:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Floor 7 appeared to be an island map, featuring two Invulnerabilities as well, and I had a pretty heavy arsenal to farm almost anything:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Luckily, the stairs were also easy to find, and there was a Chaingunner who I could later kill after clearing the rest of the floor. I opted to use both Invulnerabilities here since I could easily kill the Spider Mastermind later without them.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
I definitely needed both as there were lots of Archviles, and Mancubi, but eventually had a great setup for killing Chaingunners:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
I found a Power Pack as I was leaving, which would have been nice earlier. I decided to use it for my Combat Pistol in case using the rapid-fire weapons were too slow and dangerous against the Spider Mastermind.

I had quite the ammo as I was entering Dis:

I played it a bit aggressively with Plasma and then Minigun since I had health to spare, and not long after, got Hunter Gold Badge:

Following that, I grinded more Berserk + Overconfidence in hopes of finding a third Dragonslayer. This time since I didn't need to worry about survival, I started with Intuition instead and played much more aggressively. After many tries, I never found it, but I did get more silly messages on the start of some floors:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
And that's it for today. I still have JC kills to go to reach Apostle ranking, but I think I'll put that aside for now. My main goal is to get that last Dragonslayer, and then chip away at some of the easier unearned Medals and Badges after.
Icy:
Day 13
Today, I went more for Dragonslayer and some scattered attempts at various badges in between, and I've been finding that playing for multiple goals at the same time leads to me making silly mistakes, so I think I'm going to stick with one thing at a time now.
While attempting for Dragonslayer, there have been a number of runs where I end up with nukes and stumble across Invulnerability on floor 7, so naturally, I've been collecting some JC kills too. Previously, I used the Overconfidence + Berserk strategy for JC kills, but I would visit Unholy Cathedral and Lava Pits/Mt Erebus. I'm finding that grinding for luck is actually more efficient time-wise. I also often have a few Phase Devices and can grab the Nuclear BFG in Limbo/Mortuary fairly consistently too with some luck.
One run in particular, I had a whopping 4 nukes:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Unfortunately, it was not one where I had Invulnerability.
As I played more and was getting JC kills, I realized it was significantly easier than I remembered. One absurd run, I got the kill without even having Brute!

On level 4 he was foolish enough to enter the Mortuary!
He managed to escape from the Mortuary!
On level 6 he arrived at Mt. Erebus.

Then finally in Hell itself, he killed the final EVIL.
