Discussion / Re: Oh dragonslayer why do you taunt me
« on: March 30, 2013, 17:52 »
Berserker armor has -70% move speed according to the wiki. Am I missing something, or is it just really bad?

Century Lounge / [U|Ao100|YAAM Dragonslayer blademaster]
« on: March 29, 2013, 21:13 »
My first Ultra Violence Ao100 game. Tried a few times and died a few times, and did completed a M and H Ao100 run before this one.
Two levels of intuition to start with, and a few levels later without entering a level in the middle of a bad spawn, I got a successful character running.
With intuition everything becomes predictable, and the AI was under heavy shotgun abuse from then on.

After getting hellrunner for move speed and dodge chance I got wizkit with finesse. I wanted wizkit 2 to make modable assemblies asap. After this setup, I could get blademaster and jugler.
In the midgame I was still mostly using shotguns. I made a Tactical shotgun, and was planning on making a focused double shotgun, but then I found a super shotgun and modded it T3P2. Every once in a while I was whacking things with my power-modded chainsword. Jugler came in handy for swapping between tactical shotgun, super shotgun and chainsword.

At some point I found a fully modifiable plasma shotgun. At the time I was regularly running out of ammo, and using either out of shells or energy cells at time relying on my chainsword.

Then at level 53 I found dragonslayer so I finally became full melee. The next 47 levels played fast. In the end I was running around at 0.1s speed, but I only reached that speed at lvl 97 (antigrav boots+agility mod).

The game took over 1 day, but most of that time the game was just running in the background without me playing it. I took a long break between finding and wielding the dragonslayer.

First thing I tried was the berserk pack, but that obviously didn't work. I think ill watch the anime first before I even move :P.
I'm not sure if I want to be permanently berserk the rest of the game, but I also don't want to miss anything special (if there is any) by not wielding it.

My first Ao100 win. Played the entire game with shotguns and melee. Found nothing better than a combat knife, but still managed to steamroll everything.
The high fire resistance combined with berserk made the game very easy, fire damage dealing arch-vile where the most common enemy (lol).
Found trigun, nuclear weapons and a few nukes, but never had to use them.

" You swap your weapon. The arch-vile raises his arms! You are engulfed in
 flames! Your blue armor is completely destroyed! You die!..."

-lol-

I had plenty of medpacks left and even some phase devices, but decided to swap my empty chaingun to my plasma rifle. The AV was low on hp, so one shot would have killed me. I should have use a medpack instead of changing weapons. It was a close call. Pretty stupid :P.

This was a pretty good (lucky) game overall. Kill % is low, thats because ive had the stairs generated closeby a few times, and im not gonna pass on the opportunity to skip a level on nightmare ^^.

N! is pretty hard (duh), this is my best one so far.

Discussion / Re: Nerfing the Chaingun
« on: January 02, 2008, 16:13 »
I like the fact that with SoB2 and TH I can survive the arena on a higher difficulty level. Its really fun to see the game scale up at that point in the game.

Maybe its more interesting to limit TH to just one trait rather than reducing its bonus by half, in addition to lowering the base damage of a chaingun by 1, or lowering its accuracy.

Shotguns and what traits to choose:

Rel->Rel->SM->
Reload speed -40%, reload on move.
Overall very expensive traits. Shottyman allows you to dodge and shoot, but that tactic is not effective against sergeants, AV's, and to many barons/knights/cacodemon. The range of the double shotgun is not so good. Its also very dangerous to use when there are to many barrels around.
Problem with these traits is that they are exclusively usefull for shotguns (and possibly rocket launchers), but there are alot of situations where using a shotgun is sub-optimal.
I suggest at least removing the requirement to take Rel2 so you can take Rel(1)->SM.

Fin->Fin->Wiz
To pimp an advanced shotgun you need another 3 traits. Most characters are lvl 9 when they finish the game, so you can only pick 2x3 traits that you will use during the last 1/3th of the game. The fire speed bonus isnt going to help as much as it would with a chaingun, so this is a rather expensive combo. This combo is flexible and can also be usefull for other weapons.

HR->HR->HR->
+30% speed, +30% dodge chance. Compared to the other defensive traits, HP+66%, or armour+75%, this is rather weak. This combo 'could' be good with SM, but the bonus to speed would have to be increase significantly.
I would suggest at least doubling the movement speed bonus to +20 speed each trait for a total of +60% speed. Increasing the speed bonus might make melee games more enjoyable also.

Fin->Jug->
There is the possibility of altering the Jugler trait, so you can also swap weapons at no action cost in addition to automaticly using a prepared melee weapon. This might make shotguns more usefull to use combined with chainguns, but would also be very usefull to use with other weapons like rocket launchers, plasma rifle, BFG.

Shotguns are overall pretty weak, bad range, bad damage, bad traits, and hard to find in-game. My last test game on hard took me till lvl 6 to find anything better than a normal shotgun. Another testgame I found a double shotun on lvl 2, but there is always a chaingun on lvl 2 or 3 on hard.

Damage of chaingun:

SoB1: 1d6x5 -> 1d7x5 (+17%)
SoB2: 1d7x5 -> 1d8x5 (+14%)
TH1:  1d8x5 -> 1d8x7 (+40%)
TH2: 1d8x7 -> 1d8x9 (+30%)
SoB3: 1d8x9 -> 1d9x9 (+12%)

Total: 1d6x5 -> 1d9x9 (+170%)

As far as I can tell, triggerhappy needs nerfing, possibly reducing its effect by half, adding one shot instead of 2:

SoB1: 1d6x5 -> 1d7x5 (+17%)
SoB2: 1d7x5 -> 1d8x5 (+14%)
TH1:  1d8x5 -> 1d8x6 (+20%)
TH2: 1d8x6 -> 1d8x7 (+17%)
SoB3: 1d8x7 -> 1d9x7 (+12%)

Total: 1d6x5 -> 1d8x7 (+87%)

Quote
a) reduce single bullet damage to 1d5
b) reduce number of bullets to 4 per shot
c) increase firing time
d) reduce accurancy
a) This would only reduce the damage by ~15%
b) A ~20% nerf
c) Dunno, depends on the delay I guess
d) Again, idunno since there are no numbers on accuracy. This might increase the usefullness of Eagle Eye

Discussion / Re: Your traits of choice?
« on: January 02, 2008, 02:34 »
For v 0.9.8.8B:

Traits I pick during my games:

- Normal game (using chaingun):
SoB->SoB->TH->TH->EE->EE->Cat->Iro->SoB->Cat->EE->Iro->

Combo 1: SoB->SoB->TH->TH->...
You need 2x SoB for TH. Triggerhappy will increase your damage by:
SoB1: 1d6x5 -> 1d7x5 (+17%)
SoB2: 1d7x5 -> 1d8x5 (+14%)
TH1:  1d8x5 -> 1d8x7 (+40%)
TH2: 1d8x7 -> 1d8x9 (+30%)
Total: 1d6x5 -> 1d8x9 (+140%)

Combo 2: ...->EE->EE->Cat->...
To further multiply the damage output I take EE. 2x EE lets me take Cat and that wil increase my range. Note that Cat is much cheaper than intuition wich requires 3 traits to detect monsters.

Iro is for survivability, and the effect is multiplied by using health packs/orbs (more hp is regenerated= more dmg prevention).

- Angel of Berserk:
Bru->Bru->Ber->Ber->Ber->Iro->Iro->EE->Iro->

- Agel of Marksmanship:
SoG->SoG->SoG->Fin->Fin->Iro->WK->WK->Iro->EE->EE->Cat

Once you get to WK1 and WK2 you can start adding mods till you get this:
advanced pistol (2d7) [13/13] (D3R3S3M3)
This is why one gun is so much more powerfull than choosing dualgunner, so don't take DG.

Ironman wil fix your low HP, and EE/Cat wil give you more acc/range, after that your unstopable.

Traits, and what they do

- Ironman adds 10 hp to your 50 base hp, this means a 20% increase (also makes health packs/orbs 20% more effective)
- Tough as nails adds 1 armour to your base armour of 1-2-4-6, adding 100%-50%-25%-17%

- Finesse adds 10% speed (x2 needed for Whizkid)
- Whizkid lets you add enhancements, 4 for advanced weapons, increasing this ability is worth 4 traits for the price of one.

- Son of a bitch adds one damage, for a chaingun this is a 17% increase, for a pistol a 25% increase the first lvl

- Eagle Eye adds 4 points to chance to hit, im not sure what % increase that is
- Cateye adds one range to your view, essential for not getting hit

- Son of a gun +1 dmg and +20% speed for pistol, ~45% increase

Pre-0.9.9 / [M|AoI|YAVP|100%]The man that nuked himself
« on: December 30, 2007, 22:09 »
The game was pretty easy once i got my chaingun and 2x triggerhappy. The only problem was the cyberdemon. First I overloaded a plasma rifle, then he got scratched. Secondly I overloaded a BFG.. he got wounded.. At that time i had 20% hp so i just nuked him xP.

Its not a 'full win', I dont even have any idea how to do that.

Discussion / AoB.. I can't do it
« on: December 29, 2007, 00:01 »
Right.. ive tried several AoB games, ... on M mode... and i cant even get past dungeon lvl 3. I never made it to the chainsaw.

Usually I run out of medpacks, get shot down by a hotgun, get crowded, blasted by barrels, or eaten by a few yellow 's'.

I must have tried at least 15 times (I dont savescum).

I know how to press tab to run. I know how to drop ammo on the floor to lure them near the door. I know how to wait and run around for a good oportunity to kill them. Any more ideas?

Anyway i give up on AoB xD.
