I had been struggling with this challenge for a bit, some near-misses but finally did it now! I got Marksman Gold! :D
Had some nasty close calls but I got lucky enough to make it through. ^_^;
And of course got lots of great gear!
Early on I definitely focused hard on JoviSec gear, particularly the JS Revolver, every bit as awesome for this build as people said it was. I actually did purposely leave open a slot for it to take an exotic mod if I found one... And I did! E mod might not have made the biggest difference but I was happy to have it.
My JS Helmet served me until the end... Though it's not here because the Harbinger and friends annihilated it. :( I think it was a Marine Helmet, but can't be sure now. I did pass up higher-end headgear to keep that juicy JS bonus and all my mods, but that wasn't a great sacrifice.
I figured my JS Basic Armor wouldn't last me until the end anyway so I had an eye on replacing it with something special.
On Europa I saw Refueling Base was on the menu so I beelined into Toxicologist so I could safely open all the valves and claim the ENV armor... Except the Cybersuit generated there and after some agonising I went through with it, figuring that all that raw protection plus all those mod slots would go awesome with a static, Whizkiddy build like Sharpshooter.... I think that paid off well as a decision, even if I passed up some good stuff because of it (ENV and CRI suits).
Io I was drowning with Red Keycards so I went to CRI Labs to raid the vault. Obviously the suit was out of the question was I had some nice little stuff there, like rerolling perks (my AMP used to have +max range as the basic perk until I changed it).
I had some more close calls, I was running low on .44 ammo sometimes but thankfully I was able to keep stocking up so it wasn't a problem. I kept and modded backup guns just in case but they saw very little action.
I entered but immediately left Inferno, didn't want the risk.
Nearly killed myself blowing up an Energy Core on Dante L2! O.o;; Now THAT would've been pure misery if I had died...
Harbinger really rocked me hard sometimes too, but I managed to cling on to life and keep blasting!
