Well, who needs Acid Spitter when you have Jackhammer? :)
Btw. BirdoPrey - aren't you, by any chance, a guy who frequents ##crawl?

Hi AStranger,
thanks for the tips. When I get some time, I'll take a look on GameHunter's guides, from what I hear, they're really helpful.
However, my skills are nowhere near any Platinum, let alone Diamond. Even the single Gold I have occured in a very strange way - it's Scavenger, and I got it on my first ITYTD win. Some time after the win, I read that the Vaults are not supposed to generate on ITYTD - but they did for me, for some reason. That was in 0992, however.
Anyway, let's go in small steps. I need two Silvers and one Bronze for Warrant Officer, so let's start there :).

0.9.9.3 / [H|97%|YAVP] One Jackhammer to rule them all!

Well, this one was fun to play!
Started a normal, run-of-the-mill HMP game. Tried to build a heavily defensive build (see the traits in mortem).
Went to the Arena, cleared it, and hoped that with some luck I can finally get to the Hellgate on this difficulty.
Then, on L:4 I found the Jackhammer.
This thing works like a magic finger: Point on monster => no monster. Even Mancubi were falling in three blasts from the edge of line of sight. Once, a Hell Knight at close (not point blank) fell in a single burst!
Even more fun came when lava was present on a level. Push them in, hear them scream, hear them die.
Even the Big C could not withstand the sheer power of the weapon.
Some further perhaps interesting things about this game:
I don't think I ever found so many uniques and exotics in a single game. Ten of them, perhaps? Who would recall ...
My second win! :)

-- General ---------------------------------------------------
Before him 50 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
46 of those were killed.
2 didn't read the thermonuclear bomb manual.
And 1 couldn't handle the stress and committed a stupid suicide.
Some rumours though, say that the Cyberdemon was killed already!
Is he immortal? 1 souls claim to have killed him...
1 killed the bastard and survived.
-- Yep, but that was on ITYTD. --

Well, that's it. Now let's try some Blade level challenges ;).
