Post Mortem / [E|98%|YAFW] First win. Easy mode, but still.
« on: September 07, 2013, 18:51 »
Was pretty fun, wish I could've done it on a hard mode. Add 100 dead doomguys, I had to reinstall DoomRL including getting rid of the scores and such. Used a Nuclear Plasma Rifle as the nuke instead of my actual thermie; wish I found it earlier so I could've rolled with it. D:

Well crap, I am learning a ton about why I'm bad at the game, I keep trying to 100% levels on high difficulties as a beginner. I would've thought the extra XP would be worth the risk.

Yeah, I heard about the UC being a tough place, so when I finally got into it the first time on Angel of Shotgunnery, I got lucky.
I opened the first set of doors, then then saw the second and knew there would be mobs behind it.
I just thought "Welp, I'm gonna be a badass" and fired to destroy the doors with my shotgun.
Thank God I didn't open those doors. ._.

Nice job, took me 30 more doomguys to make it to level 13. I suppose you were going for a burst/shotgun combo?

Discussion / Re: Quick questions thread!
« on: September 03, 2013, 09:57 »I'm not sure about the exact numbers, but I think EE and SoB (Eagle Eye/Son of a Bitch) are better to boost your rapid-fire DPS, and as an added bonus, they are required for Cateye. Additionally, while Fin might allow you to shoot more bursts in the same time, SoB allows you to kill enemies in less bursts, which not only gives you the same effect, but also saves ammunition. Personally I take finesse only when I need WK (Whizkid) most of the time.
Of course, I wouldn't really want to skip SoB or EE, I'm just thinking about a if I get deep enough where I'll have the levels to get both EE/SoB as well as Fin and Reloader.

Discussion / Re: Quick questions thread!
« on: September 03, 2013, 06:07 »I would strongly advise you to go for a master trait as soon as possible. Most of them are really that good.
Yeah, I know that much, but I was thinking; With Finesse, I could kill a ~2 mobs before they could fire back, like Barons of Hell, which I never really experienced before with rapid fire weapons. I wonder if I maxed out Reloader, Finesse, went scout and did anything else for fire time, how effective that would be.

I should've used my shotgun and corner shot.
I should've used my missile launcher.
I should've gotten Int 2 sooner so I could be more effective at both.
I should've used the shiny BFG I just got for the first time.
But nah, just decided to let sleep get the better of me and DAKKADAKKA'd in his face while he bashed mine in easily.
So then I ran, tried to get to that corner so I could try using my super shotgun to keep him off me. Underestimated the splash of his rocket.
However, quite proud of myself, got 6 levels deeper and 50k score higher than any my second highest score, on a higher difficulty, with a weapon type I'm least used to, and just kinda winging the traits. :D

Discussion / Re: Quick questions thread!
« on: September 02, 2013, 22:13 »You need at least 2 kinds of weapons: general killing weapon, and one area control weapon that may be close ranged (shotgun) or far ranged (rocket launcher and family).
Masterless is literallyb about juggling those two kinds of weapons for the situations that you are meeting. City of Skulls with Plasma rifles is doable, but you better have good reloading and ridiculously fast firing speeds.
If not, Phase devices are almost mandatory.
Nah, had one but abused Arena Master's Staff (Check my edited post). Probably used too many medpacks but kept me alive.
That said, I do think I'm gonna keep this missile launcher I found after killing them all, and go masterless but grab intuition 2 to supplement for it.

« on: September 02, 2013, 21:58 »MCe is a very useful general purpose Master -- that extra two range of sight can allow you to snipe things, for various definitions of snipe.
If you want to do masterless, remember to be willing to switch weapons depending on the situation.
And don't worry. What the RNG giveth, the RNG taketh away...
I had no right surviving that. I suppose I should be thankful for the 6 small medpacks I had refreshing my tactics so I could spam Arena Master's Staff.
That said,

OK, so I went into Hurt Me Plenty with the intention of going MCe (I think that's the Cateye shorthand :P). This all changed when on level 4 I met Ms. Nuclear Plasma Rifle. That changed things up. I stuck an agility mod on it (Might've been a bit too quick on that one), and now I'm planning to grab Juggler to switch to another rapidfire when it needs to recharge, and grab Whizkid so I can mod it out (No idea if I can assemble it into anything).
Should I keep going to grab MCe (Currently have a level of EE, a level of Int, and 2 levels of SoB), or should I use the chance to try out a masterless build with all these extra traits I want? (Or just, you know, postpone the master trait, but maybe keeping TaN or Rel open would benefit).
Also thinking of plopping two bulk mods on the Plasma rifle, but no idea if it can assemble into something or if power/agility/etc might be better.
Of course, I'll treat any posts as recommendations, not follow it blindly. I think what I want to know if any of these options are "God awful bad" or "Stupidly fun" rather than "The most optimal".
Edit: Just entered one of those rooms that usually contain a ton of demons or lost souls with goodies, got a Onyx armor and a Nano pack. Holy crap all stuff I've never had. o-o

Well, I come from Dwarf Fortress so I'm all like "TRIAL BY FIRE YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH". If only Doom originally came out with futuristic maces. I love me some maces.
It's amazing how Roguelikes can take horrible mechanics in most games and make them the star feature and actually fun.
So, went Malicious Blades, but when I got to the staircase to take me to Deimos's Lab, it took me to Hell's Armory instead, with just one Shambler. Did I skip something or is it random? I managed to get to the Wall before my inexperience of remembering to use phase capsules killed me. On the bright side, I actually only went through 42 Doomguys to get that far. Is this a normal "Progress" or am I slow or fast?
