finally got a melee win on hard after casually trying for a while. nerfed bots on callisto makes it so getting R&T2 before europa is no longer necessary, allowing you the freedom to dump skills into hellrunner. once the vampyre build gets going its a real monster, especially in the late game when you're flush with med kits and grenades. while i didn't get any super lucky weapons - was stuck with a combat knife and katana through io - was fairly smooth sailing for most of the run. at the current stage of this build, europa is probably the most dangerous portion of the game, as bigger enemies will take two or three whacks with the machete to go down. by the time i had the demonic sword and the chainsaw, no monsters stood a chance. i put six krak grenades into the summoner and almost killed it damageless
