-- General ---------------------------------------------------

 Before him 747 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
 619 of those were killed.
 3 of those were killed by something unknown.
 71 didn't read the thermonuclear bomb manual.
 And 17 couldn't handle the stress and committed a stupid suicide.

 Some rumours though, say that the Cyberdemon was killed already!
 Is he immortal? 37 souls claim to have killed him...
 6 sacrificed itself for the good of mankind.
 26 killed the bastard and survived.
 5 showed that it can outsmart hell itself.

Quote from: Myself, not four hours ago
It's possible to play AoB to some degree (not to mention beat N! AoB SOMEHOW) but I'm staying away from it until there's a fix.
Apparently I don't listen to what I say, because after that AoSg YAAM run I felt like trying something different.  Hence N! AoB.

This run is probably the most ridiculous thing ever, not because I did it with the zerk bug, but because everything between Chained Court and killing the Cyberdemon was done while zerked. There was not a SINGLE TURN between those two events where I was not under the effects of Berserk. In other words, the bug didn't even matter, I was stuck in perma-zerk anyway. Finding occasional packs were useful, but it was definitely farming Pain Elementals that allowed me to stay in the game like that.

There was a unique on floor six(ish) but I didn't have the patience to keep looking. It happened to be an Arach cave (which there were at least five of in this run, holy smokes) and you can't just sit around on those things. Necroarmor was nice sometimes (+25% movespeed is no joke), but mostly useless, and I kept taking it off to avoid what was basically turning into double damage.

I actually did try the Mortuary, but between the speed of the Viles and the rather extreme number of Commandos and Captains, I couldn't keep my health up enough to keep going. Left about half-way in, but it was pretty awesome nonetheless.

The point in Finesse was me trying to remember if it affects melee (which it does not).

One Plat away from Marshal now. Today was a good day.

This is pretty much the only way to finish a N! AoB with the 'zerk bug. Even though it is possible to switch to a knife or fists to increase your chance of obtaining a good berserk, in practice it usually uses too much of your armor/health to actually be viable. Either way, well done. I feel that a "constant" berserk melee game is one of the funnest ways to play.

Gratz on your nice win! Being berserked almost whole game sounds crazy and I wish I were as good as you... but well, maybe I'll win AoB someday :)
