Cybernetic Armor + Onyx pack is absolutely ridiculous. Other than that I spent a VERY LONG time in the Mortuary until I got it cleared (respawns on top of respawns). Well i actually needed it for the kill count so I think it went rather well.

-- General ---------------------------------------------------
Before him 358 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
307 of those were killed.
2 of those were killed by something unknown.
11 didn't read the thermonuclear bomb manual.
And 8 couldn't handle the stress and committed a stupid suicide.
Some rumours though, say that the Cyberdemon was killed already!
Is he immortal? 30 souls claim to have killed him...
2 sacrificed itself for the good of mankind.
26 killed the bastard and survived.
2 showed that it can outsmart hell itself.

What.
The.
Fuck.
How do you do it?
You are a fucking legend and you will go down in DooMRL History forever.
What I wanna know is how did you get to clevel 18, as rescumming no longer works...O_o
And how do you clear the mort on N! anyway?
-
LOL, never thought of THAT combination :D
-
Jesus Christ Dervis!
Do you even sleep?
358 dudes, 30 of which killed Cybie...
Do you just blink, and the game takes its course?
How the hell do you do it?

10 permanent armor? What are the chances of all the components spawning in the same game?
And 0.9.9, not a RC or beta? I can't seem to find the download!

It requires 2 specific uniques of 34 (and a power mod, and whizkid), and this doesn't show the huge movespeed penalty for wearing cybernetic.
Also RC 5 is what will basically be re-titled 0.9.9, unless something that needs fixing is found pretty soon. So Kornel has already made all the in-game version numbers 0.9.9.

How are respawning enemies handled?
Does a revived enemy count as another enemy for both killing and being left alive? Or does only the initial creation of the enemy count, and whether or not it is killed depends on whether or not it's alive when you leave a level?
I'm also surprised at clevel 18 on non-Ao100, especially if xp required for levels is unchanged.
-
I still want to know how you got clevel 18?
And, yes. That's why N! Elite is so hard, if enemies respawn they count against your percent...
-
Do you even sleep?
I played way too much DoomRL during the holidays :P.

And how do you clear the mort on N! anyway?
I'm not sure about this, but i think the required xp for high levels got lowered since 0.9.8.10. Anyway do notice I visited and cleared everything except AoD and Lava Pits (no envirosuits).
Clearing Mortuary is the same as clearing the Arena. The respawns are extremely random, sometimes you have to kill the same monster 3 times on a row, sometimes 6+ monsters get rezzed together, sometimes hardly anything gets rezzed.

This. Even if you don't care about chasing the respawns, you'll get 75%+ just by 'clearing' the level.
On a side note, Ammochain is clearly the best trait for UV+... there's barely anything a Plasma Rifle A2 can't handle.

/me High Fives Dervis and shoves that in Thomas's face
-
/me notices Arch-Vile Legend...
So... don't tell me you don't have anything to rank up more... O.o

I think he has already achieved the max ranks of both Kornel.
He literaly owns your game like his bitch.
-
Actually I'm at 9/19 Diamond, but each new badge now takes a lot of planning/luck to achieve.
Blade = 10 Diamond Badges
God hand = 15 Diamond Badges (Yeah right... :P)
-
Which ones do you have left?
-
Check attachment. I don't consider Longinus Diamond since it was acquired when it could still be nuked.
Edit: Just noticed I got Quartermaster Diamond when it was bugged also. This challenge is quite doable though. So make that 8/19.
-
Do you think you can achieve the remaining diamonds?
-
Dervis, you know the reqs for even more ranks?
Yay!
-

I think it's this, but Kornel should give you the numbers if anything's missing.
Brigadier General - Requires 4 platinum, 1 diamond.
Lieutenant General - Requires 8 platinum, 3 diamond.
General - Requires 10 platinum, 4 diamond.
Marshal - Requires 12 platinum, 5 diamond.
Legend - Requires 7 diamond
Blade - Requires 10 diamond
God hand - Requires 15 diamond
Do you think you can achieve the remaining diamonds?
There are 3 or 4 I got my eye on, however there are others I think are virtually impossible.

Which ones are impossible?

Marksmanship without SoG seems pretty farfetched. Pistols are already underpowered with a full set of traits, and pistols benefit far more from traits than other weapons (i.e. pistols are really really bad, it's only Son of a Gun/Dual Gunner that grants massive bonuses allow it to be viable).
Nightmare with only fists seems kind of tough too.
Edit: I'm surprised that AoPc without HR is doable.
-
I'll keep God Hand a secret, wouldn't want to spoil that?
I was thinking about that the other day - If you could do N! with fists, you could do AoMr without SoG (Just pick melee traits and off you goooooo, you even get 2 mods at startup for your trusty armours)

If there is a reward for doing N! with fists without brute, I will prove it by the power of TSearch.
First, though, I've gotta unlock N!
-
Thomas: We're talking about Dervis here.
-
Which ones are impossible?
UAC Diamond - My best time on N! ever was just under 18m, with a Butcher's Cleaver on lvl2. To be able to shave 3 min off that would require epic RNG intervention.
Strongman / Demonic - I still haven't suceeded on a fist run even on HMP, haven't really tried hard either, but can't really see this happening.
Marksman - I don't know how doable this would be with an early unique. Still wouldn't be easy.
Centurial Diamond - Same as UAC, might be possible with an early Cleaver. Still 60 min for 100 levels averages at 36s/lvl. (No Chained Courts and you can't just enter a special level and leave)
Longinus Diamond - Considering the AoD's Hp on Nightmare! you'd need epic RNG intervention. Even 2 Zerk packs near the entrance might be insufficient.
-
Dervis, any chance we could get an N! special level/General guide?
-
I think Thomas' tips for Nightmare! are already quite to the point. I would consider making a badges guide.
-
Yes, but when you have such things as Hell's Arena where you can't just close doors and move on...
-
The only topics Thomas doesn't cover are the finer aspects of killing monsters on doorways/water/acid and corpse piling to avoid respawns.
-
Yes, that I would like to know.
-
A Badges guide would be awesome :D
-
To unlock Demonic Diamond:
You don't.
-
You can, but it would require some goddamn magic.
