So I got the idea to see if I could win a Nightmare game with 100% kills, and decided that the easiest way to do that would be with Angel of Carnage, since I can easily gib all the smallest enemies with rockets, so they can't respawn, and I did it with a Ghost build, partly so I could have all enemies detected, so I could be sure I didn't miss anyone, and partly for the reduced stealth cost, since I figured having higher damage output would help with gibbing the larger lategame enemies.
But that all got simplified when I got Medusa's Fang as the reward in Callisto Anomaly. :P The Medusa's Fang relic makes it so any shot that hits a biological enemy that wouldn't otherwise kill it, instantly gibs it, with the drawback that every 3 enemies gibbed in this way makes me lose max health. It was still worth gibbing the little guys normally, to cut down on how much max health I was losing, and I pumped all my multitools into every med station I could find to boost my max health, (which is why I went to Tyre Outpost for the guaranteed med station) but in the end, I did it, with about 90 max health to spare. Yay! :D (This is how I found out that the max health reduction from Medusa's Fang doesn't seem to be capped like Medusa's Curse; I lost a lot more than 50 max health) :|
This all got sillier when I got a sustain mod in Infernal Lock, because it refunds ammo for each kill, and each shot was a kill, so ammo worries disappeared. :) I was also helped along by the unexpected fact that apparently, the Ancient doesn't count as a "boss" for the Medusa's Fang's purposes! :o (It says it only works on non-boss enemies, but the Ancient fell from one shot!) And I also found the Overlord unique at the end of Io, which auto-hacks mechanical enemies, which up til this point, were pretty much my only threat, since they're immune to the Medusa's Fang.
The Butcher was also a bit of an issue, since he can apparently use his harpoon on you while you're stealthed and it still gives you the "Crippled" debuff, but with some careful maneuvering, I was able to take him out without too much trouble, and of course, Harbinger posed some difficulty, but my Shadowcloak was a big help for its extra stealth power, in that I could grenade a random minion to get some extra stealth and then hit Harbinger with extra critical hits. :)
