I'm not sure if AoMC locks out the badge or not, or whether nuking the mortuary while invulnerable did it. I *could* have done mortuary through conventional means, my plasma rifle was a death ray and I had more than enough skulls, but I wanted to play it safe since I had a full inventory anyway.

After I got rid of the shamblers in Deimos Lab, the cache showed both an onyx AND nano pack. I kept it until I could get Whizkid and the power mods needed, and I managed to complete a cybernano red armor. The cybernano armor was a godsend, it saved me several times.

By the time I got SoBx5 and 2 power mods on my plasma rifle, I was actually having trouble with it because it would knock enemies out of the way and not to full damage, and it was actually *melting walls*. Thankfully I didn't need to kill much else by then and the SM got turned into goo before she could attack.

On a more general note, I hope it's not a problem that I'm spamming the forum with mortems.. lol

To get badges for clearing special levels, you need to do it the hard way, unfortunately, without nuking. Still, a nice game.

Is it that important to get SoB on AoMC, with the guaranteed max damage? I'd go for WK earlier, or maybe HR.

Agh, of course.. the badge could be cheesed too easily otherwise. I was invulnerable too, I could have just melted the arch-viles before they had a chance to summon too many monsters.

SoB is good for saving ammo and increasing knockback from your shotguns, which can effectively replace hellrunner outside of the start of levels where you could be completely surrounded. SoB early will kill commandos with 1 chaingun volley for example. I did go overboard with SoB though xd maybe I could do 1x SoB next time and go WK earlier if I find plenty of power mods.

I thoght  that only first angel counts for badges. Now dualangels seems even more imbalanced for me.

To be honest, without AoMC the only major difference is Hell's Armory/Deimos Lab, since you're lacking firepower you have to be more careful against the commandos, specially if you dont have a plasma rifle yet. I could probably afford not to go straight to intuition without AoMC, which means more SoB to deal with the shamblers. AoMC just lets me play ballsier since knockback and damage is so consistent.

Some dual angels certainly make some badges trivial, but IMO this one is just tradeoffs.

Don't worry, dual angels are getting a nice test-run from everyone now and we will scale/nerf accordingly once we have enough data.

I think Tormuse did that during the beta testing phase. The results were amusing.

Heh, "amusing" is one way to put it.  :)  I hope the Devteam fixed the bug where you keep getting the Pacifist bonus past character level 25!  :P

Yeah I think Kornel fixed that.  I forgot what the fix was though.

Nope, it is really easy,  did it just now with all but lava pits special levels, 87% killrate and JC. Max Carnage makes everything much easier. I guess I should look at few diamonds that I haven't yet. Lighfoot? Inquisitor, Eagerness, Masochist?

Hmm, I guess there's something I'm not taking advantage of yet, I still die a whole lot :P AoB were my favorite type of runs initially, so I'm still getting used to the idea of avoiding damage altogether. What about Everyman diamond using max carnage? :P
