Nightmare! / Re: [N!|90%|YAVP] Demonic Platinum and Reaper Platinum
« on: October 09, 2011, 04:18 »My god man! Quit chugging the Power Thirst and share it with everyone else. I'm amazed at how you can do this. Of course I'm just a scrub who can't even clear UV but still it's amazing how many grandiose stories you bring to the mortem section.
I just play this game far, far too much. :) If it's any consolation, part of the reason I'm able to play this much is that I'm unemployed and I'm using this game to procrastinate from my job search, so I may be succeeding at the game, but I'm kind of failing at life. :P Maybe I'll get over my addiction to the game once I hit God Hand rank. :D
You destroyed ALL of the corpses in the Mortuary WHILE THEY WERE RESPAWNING.
a) HOW
b) There really needs to be a rank named after you or a medal named after you.
a) A large portion of them were destroyed by a couple of fire skulls that I picked up in the City of Skulls. (There were three, but I left one behind; if I'd known I had to destroy all the corpses, I would've brought all three) A whole bunch more were destroyed when I was going on my invulnerability rampage, since Mancubus rockets were flying all over the place. So, there weren't really a whole lot by the time I got around to my final clean-up, but enough to make it a chore, because I didn't want to be charging around where Mancubi and Arachnotrons were present. Rockets were plentiful, because there are extra Mancubi in Nightmare difficulty, so I had lots of ammunition to help me clear up bodies. I took advantage of Intuition 2 to be able to see enemies before they came into visual range and I used my nuclear plasma rifle that I picked up in the Spider's Lair to pick them off from a distance. I had Son of a Bitch level 4 by then, so I was doing enough damage to bring them down with a few rounds each. Also, I had power-modded red armour to lessen the damage I took from my explosions from detonating rockets next to myself to destroy the bodies. It took a while, but I did it. I'm not really keen on doing it again to get Reaper Diamond, though. :P
b) I have mixed feelings about that... On the one hand, I love this game and it would be a huge honour to have something named after me, but on the other hand, I can't shake the feeling that it would also be a lasting testament to my inability to set priorities in my life. :P Still... If Kornel wants to name something after me, I have no objection. :)

Nightmare! / [N!|90%|YAVP] Demonic Platinum and Reaper Platinum
« on: October 09, 2011, 01:40 »
I'm in need of some platinum badges to go up in rank, so with this run, I had my sights set on Demonic, Reaper, and Gatekeeper. 2 out of 3 ain't bad. :)
Notes on this run:
No fancy build or Master traits; I just got whatever trait I felt I needed at any given moment.
My attempt at Gatekeeper Platinum was thwarted, first by the absence of an invulnerability on level 14, and then, by the fact that my microlauncher missed one of the Bruiser Brothers a couple times, forcing me to retreat faster than I intended and they cornered me just before I could kill them. They only hit me once. (Grrr!)
I had a stroke of luck in getting the Reaper Platinum: Two levels before the Mortuary were two invulnerabilities and a berserk which I picked up just before going downstairs, and then the level with the entrance to the Mortuary had *two more* invulnerabilities! :o I had enough invulnerability to do a complete lap of the Mortuary and kill all the Arch-Viles and almost all other monsters before it ran out. I thought, for a moment, that I would be able to get the Angelic Badge too, but I found out the hard way that, due to Nightmare difficulty, the monsters continue to respawn after the Arch-Viles are dead. This meant that the only way to clear it was to DESTROY EVERY SINGLE CORPSE IN THE MORTUARY! (Ugh!) :| This was really tedious, especially since most of the corpses were away from any walls that I could explode rockets against, so the only way to destroy them was to rocketjump, which, of course, injured me. Bye bye, Angelic Badge. :( I probably should have just nuked it, but I don't know if I get the badge then.
I didn't plan to clear the Unholy Cathedral, but there was an invulnerability and berserk next to the entrance, so I took full advantage of them. This would have been Longinus Diamond if I hadn't already achieved it. :) In fact, with 90% kills, this also would have been Elite Diamond if I hadn't already achieved it! :o

Man, I'm glad AoRA isn't based on real time; I suck at speed runs. :P
Also, I see the other forum members went easy on you; the last time I posted a rant about how unfair my DoomRL game was, I was told I deserved to die. :)

0.9.9.4 / [U|YAFW/YAAM] Elite Platinum and Gatekeeper Diamond
« on: October 06, 2011, 03:25 »
I've heard a number of people say that the Gatekeeper Diamond is the easiest Diamond Badge to earn, but somehow, I've never achieved it until now. (Probably because I spend too much time playing Nightmare difficulty) ;) After so many Nightmare games, it was actually quite a relief to not have enemies respawn any more and the game seemed easy in comparison. :)
My goal here was to get Elite Platinum and YAAM, (which should probably be called YAAS in this case since I was a scout, not a marine) :P and I got Gatekeeper Diamond by luck, since there was an invulnerability on level 14. I still almost didn't get the Diamond because invuln ran out just before I killed the second Arch-Vile. (I had charged in and taken out most of the enemies in there with my chainsaw; I had Shottyhead and Berserker by then) So, there I was, standing two squares away from the severely wounded Arch-Vile, with an almost dead imp on the other side and a wounded demon closing in. After weighing my options, I used the Arena Master's Staff, which killed the imp, further wounded the demon, and brought the Arch-Vile down to mortally wounded. (The only time I used the AMS) I expected the Arch-Vile to shock me in return, but luckily, he didn't and two rapid tactical shotgun blasts later, he died. Just as he fell, another imp stepped into view from the other direction and I blasted him, just as the demon got up to me and I blasted him too... which is all pretty funny for me to picture, because thanks to Shottyhead, I was firing 1 shot per 0.25 seconds, so I had just fired 4 shots in three different directions in the space of one second. :) After that, I didn't take any chances and used a ridiculous number of shells bringing down the Bruiser Brothers from outside their visual range.
The only other really tense part was the Mortuary, because I ran myself completely out of shells, despite going in there with 300 of them, and getting 60 more from two sergeants I killed in there. I had to rely on the nuclear plasma rifle I had picked up from the Spider's Lair quite a bit after that. Two Fire Skulls and a Hatred Skull that I picked up from the City of Skulls were a big help, since they helped me clear out corpses and save ammo.
Nothing much else except that I screwed up getting Shambler's Head due to a barrage from a Commando that I didn't even see. Oh well, maybe next time...
EDIT: And with this game, I move up to General rank! :D

« on: October 04, 2011, 16:28 »
Clearly, I have too much time on my hands these days... or I just have no life. Either way, here's another Diamond Badge for my collection. :)
Notes on this run:
I started with Intuition so I could spot berserks and other healing sources at the start of each level which turned out to be quite useful.
I spotted a railgun at one point, which is one of the few uniques I haven't found yet, but couldn't get to it because there was an Arachnotron standing next to it. :( Considering how many med-packs I ended up with, I probably could have risked it, but I didn't want to screw up my run.
I got berserker trait at the end because I had run out of things to upgrade and I didn't want to mess up my Diamond by getting Hellrunner. I figured berserker could be somewhat useful since it makes you go berserk if you get hit by an explosion, but I never ended up using it anyway.
Nothing else to say except that it was a surprisingly lucky run! I started right next to the stairs on six of the levels!

Huh! I didn't even notice the typo, "strange" instead of "strangle." I must be getting dyslexic in my old age. :P
Yes. The joke was that the marine would strangle monsters with it if it's in the prepared slot.
isn't the 10mm ammo box is called an ammo chain?

Wow! Thanks for the praise, guys! I feel so honoured! :D (A rank named after me? Really? *blush*)
Yeah, I think this is my favourite build now. :) I still want to see if I can make it work in Angel of 100 when I find the time.
LOL
Amazing job, I definitely need to use vampyre after seeing this.

It occurs to me that in this model, the Grammaton Cleric Beretta should do extra melee damage, considering that they have blades built into them. (From the movie Equilibrium) I suppose they would also do extra damage if you have Gun Kata Master Trait. :)

Nice win, and YAAM too! Very impressive! :) And yes, getting Intuition 2 was how I got my Destroyer Diamond Badge a while back. It looks like you're pretty close to be able to do that too!
Oh, and your English looks fine to me. I mean it's not perfect, but whose is, really? :) At least we can understand you.

Congrats on Berserker Diamond! :D I've always preferred Vampyre over Blademaster, myself, so I'm impressed by anyone who can make this build work. (I guess it's just a difference in playing style)
Oh, and I recently had a Malicious Blades build where I had Butcher's Cleaver and a Chainsword. It was pretty awesome. :)

I can only begin to emphasize... BOO-YAAAAAH!!! :P
Not one, not two, but fully *THREE* Diamond Badges in one game! :D :D :D
I've been having a lot of luck with Vampyre build lately, so I thought I'd try my hand at acquiring the never before achieved Demonic Diamond Badge (which, incidentally, automatically gets me the Strongman Diamond Badge too) and a lucky Pain Elemental cave on level 20 gave me the opportunity to get Elite Diamond Badge too! :)
It took many tries to get it right, but I finally had a lucky game, with Berserks and Invulnerabilities in the right places to keep me going. There were still close calls here and there, but once I got Vampyre trait, everything pretty much fell into place.
Then I got myself into a situation on level 24 that I just have to share because it was equal parts frustrating and absurd...
It was *another* Pain Elemental cave. The exit was pretty close by and I could have just run for it, but I was at 21% health at the time, and for a Vampyre, a Pain Elemental cave is paradise because the abundant Lost Souls provide lots of health. :) So, I found myself a corner where the walls formed a bottleneck so the Lost Souls could only approach me one at a time, and started getting my health back. Unfortunately, the corner I chose was in full view of several of the Pain Elementals and I soon discovered that they were spawning lost souls far faster than I could kill them. :| (It wouldn't surprise me if the map was completely full of Lost Souls at that point!) It really looked like the game was going to end in a stale-mate, right then and there, with me being unable to get to the exit and them being unable to kill me. I was cursing myself for having used my Hellwave pack on the previous level (it killed a group of Arch-Viles and Mancubi, so it seemed like a good use of it at the time) and for having used my last phase device, because now, I didn't have any means of escaping this situation...
I don't know how long I just sat there, killing thousands of lost souls, (long enough to earn the Iron Skull Badge, apparently) :P but eventually, the random wanderings of the Pain Elementals took them out of my view and since they only spawn Lost Souls when they can see you, the number of Lost Souls slowly dwindled until there was a path out of my bottleneck and I made a run for it. I still couldn't get to the exit, though, and I quickly became surrounded on all eight sides by Lost Souls and now, they were damaging me faster than I was getting health back. It quickly became alarming as they brought me from 200% health to 20% in a matter of seconds and for a moment, I thought I was going to die there, (which would have been a really stupid way to die after getting that far) but somehow, two med-packs later, I got away from them and found my way to another bottleneck, one that was out of view of the Pain Elementals. :) My strategy after that was to kill Lost Souls until their numbers were thin enough to make a path between me and the Pain Elementals and then dash out, kill one Pain Elemental, and then dash back to the bottleneck to kill the horde of Lost Souls that were spawned during that dash. Wash, rinse, repeat until all the Pain Elementals were dead.
The funny thing about all this is that a couple levels earlier, I was trying desperately to keep a Pain Elemental alive because it was my best source of healing, and I was killing Barons and Knights around it. Every time the Pain Elemental got caught in the crossfire and got injured by one of the Knights, I would say, "Don't hurt him! He's my friend!" :) ...Then about halfway through level 24, I was saying, "YOU'RE NOT MY FRIENDS ANY MORE!" :P
After all that, it was a bit anti-climactic when I ran up to the Cyberdemon, still berserk from all the Lost Souls, and punched him to death. :)
