0.9.9.1 / Re: [M|100%|AoH|YAAM] RNG wanted me to win ^^
« on: August 04, 2010, 09:10 »
There's a chance that you could have gotten to MAc, provided that your first trait had been one of the requirements (instead of EE) and you earned some extra experience from special levels. Playing AoH, though, you have to get lucky for the "nicer" special levels to even be generated.
But maybe EE ended up working better for you than MAc would have. You did win, after all :)

12 killed the bastard and survived.
--------------------------------------------------------------
This victory was all the more satisfying because I've been going after the gold marksmanship badge for a while now, and because the final moments were very tense.
I thought I was in pretty good shape after the first couple levels of Phobos Hell. Two Arachnotron caves later, things weren't looking so great. I entered one of the caves with an Invincibility powerup and decided to just run for the exit; this turned out to be a mistake, as I picked the wrong direction. Ended up having to fight my way back through the cave in the opposite direction.
With dwindling ammunition and health supplies, I eventually made my way to Phobos Hell Level 9. I spawned in a dead-end room with only one exit. Opening the door, I immediately see the exit staircase... and a vile pack right next to it. Ouch.
I tried in vain to kill enough Revenants so that I could hit the Arch-viles behind them without exposing myself to the entire pack at once. But the pistols just weren't doing enough damage; the viles were resurrecting them faster than I could kill them. I would probably run out of ammunition before I got lucky enough to kill the viles.
I had no choice but to run for the exit. And run I did... I had to use two of my precious large medkits on the way, and even then it was more dumb luck than skill that kept me alive.
And so I entered Phobos Arena with just 1 large medkit.
I danced around the Cyberdemon for a while, dodging rockets while pecking away at his health. Unfortunately my dancing took me too close to a wall, and the resulting splash damage forced me to use the medkit.
After several more rounds of combat the Cyberdemon was nearly dead, but I was at just 37% health and my guns were empty. I needed to reload, but Cybie was almost on top of me! I sidestepped, and to my great relief a rocket flew past. I dual-reloaded while Cybie loaded another rocket and stepped closer.
Now that he's adjacent to me I'm sure that 1 melee hit will kill me. I'm already tired, so I can't run away. I just fire, hoping my weapon speed will kill him off before he gets another move... Kaboom! A very satisfying kaboom.

This was my first successful Ao100 run. My goal was to get Fireangel and use rockets as my primary offense, killing things indiscriminately from short range. But plans change...
Around level 50 I was running scared with only 2 shotguns shells and no rockets. I was running past packs of monsters, soaking up damage, while just hoping to find some more ammo before I died. As luck would have it, I came across a nuclear BFG!
My ammo problems continued for the next 30 levels or so, during which I had to use the nuclear BFG liberally with frequent stops for recharging. It was so painful, too, watching the BFG vaporize precious stacks of ammo - but I frequently had no other choice.
I got my Fireangel, but most of my kills came from the Super Shotgun. It's funny, because I wouldn't have even considered getting Shottyman unless it had been a requirement for Fireangel, but Shottyman is probably what saved me in the end (along with the nuclear BFG).

I play a lot of roguelikes on my laptop and use those keys exclusively. It's very convenient, and now it feels weird if I try to play on my desktop using the keypad. My keys have a few minor differences, though, to match what I'm used to from playing Angband:

Nothing really remarkable about this mortem, other than it's my first try at the new version. So far I'm liking the changes. I was definitely surprised at the Hell Gate. Would have liked to go for a full win, but found no nukes the entire game.
*Possible Spoilers Below*
- I found a Laser Rifle (1d7)x5, which I assume is a new weapon? The +10 accuracy was very nice, but I stuck with my plasma rifle since I'd already modded it considerably.
- The new reward from The Wall is quite nice :) I definitely used more rockets this game than I normally do
- I noticed a new level feeling, I think... "You hear the trumpets of Jericho" or similar. I'm assuming that this feeling indicates the presence of a lever which destroys all the walls in the level. I found such a lever after getting that feeling, and the text makes sense.

Congrats! I also just finished my 1st win on UV, which was AoMC using basically the same build. IMO, AoMC feels *easier* than a standard game on UV once you get MAc. There's just no substitute for being able to kill any enemy in one turn, with virtually zero chance of failure.

0.9.9 / [M|AoPc|4%|YAVP] The RNG makes up for a bad morning
« on: January 23, 2010, 14:50 »
I had a horrible string of bad luck this morning, including one Angel of Haste who died before getting a single move in (started in a room surrounded by lost souls, and apparently you don't get "free moves" on the very first level). So I decided to try my luck at Angel of Pacifism...
Surprisingly, I won.
The RNG was kind to me, especially in Phobos Hell (maybe it felt bad for this morning's massacre?). I managed to skip about 5 levels in a row with one Invulnerability Globe and well-placed stairs.
I had one extremely close call when a forger sergeant parked himself on the staircase and wouldn't move off of it. I was low on health and almost out of med packs. Fortunately a Baron helped me out by killing him, basically at the last possible moment. Not even a hellrunner can dodge shotgun pellets :(

Forgive me if this has been asked before, but I wasn't able to find an answer. Consider the following scenario:
The game always lets me target the 'h' in this scenario, but sometimes I can't actually hit him. Meanwhile, 'h' has no problems shooting back at me! What determines whether I can actually damage a target in this position?

-- General ---------------------------------------------------
Before him 31 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
27 of those were killed.
And 3 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.

As the subject line says, this has been my most frustrating death yet. I began my final turn with 100% health [70/70] and semi-damaged red armor [2/4] (on the previous turn I had more than 100% health, but the mancubus knocked me down to 100%) . I still don't understand how a single Mancubus was able to kill me... Maybe I got bounced around through the lava? I just don't know.
Sucks... I thought this guy would make it for sure.
I found the Cybernetic armor early on, and was saving it for the final battle. Didn't want to don it too soon, as I was also going for 100% kills and it would drag me down too much.
