-- General ---------------------------------------------------
Before him 532 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
432 of those were killed.
1 of those was killed by something unknown.
63 didn't read the thermonuclear bomb manual.
And 14 couldn't handle the stress and committed a stupid suicide.
Some rumours though, say that the Cyberdemon was killed already!
Is he immortal? 22 souls claim to have killed him...
2 sacrificed itself for the good of mankind.
18 killed the bastard and survived.
2 showed that it can outsmart hell itself.

Dang, it's been a while since I got a win. I never expected it to be trying N! A100 though...
Beginning was just kill as I could, get to Ammochain as soon as possible (floor 9, not bad), and focus on conservative play. After maxing Iro/HR, I focused on simply reaching the exit of each floor.
Important items?
-I managed both gothic and planeshift armors, eventually (I repeat, EVENTUALLY) getting the ABP on both. Planeshift ABP, plasteel AT, and HRx2 combined for 0.44 movespeed which, when Berserked, is practically like a time-stopper. I actually saw a Baron aim for my previous location after firing TWO volleys of plasma at him. There were plenty of times when their durability was running low, though, and I had to play naked for a bit.
- The absolutely necessary plasma rifle. I didn't get an A1 until floor 39 (which I remember because that level was the closest I came to dying, go irony!), and the T2/P2 came over time. Plenty of damage and, once the P2 was added, the occasional knockback was useful.
- Missile launcher came, amazingly, in the teens. After a while I realized that the shotgun was useless and I stocked up solely on rockets, anywhere between 4-8 stacks (sometimes my health supplies were low). BFG9000 came later, but I almost never used it because...
- BFG10, in all its ridiculously powerful glory. I could probably write a book on that thing for the number of times I used it. As if to congratulate me on my hard-earned victory of floor 39, the game plopped me a unique on the next level and, sure enough, it was exactly the right weapon for the build.
My strategy was able to be boiled down to the following:
- Arenas, open Hellish Caves, and big spaces were BFG10K.
- Whenever I needed some precise splash damage or a wall opened up, missile launcher.
- Everything else, plasma rifle.
In terms of Invulnerability Globes and Berserk Packs, I wouldn't say I was any more lucky than normal. One case of five Berserk Packs (!!!) and another of three Invulnerability Globes are the coolest mentions. Two nukes, two floors. By the end, I was actually hoping for Hellish Caves and Arenas...everything else is too mind-wracking and BFG10K cleans up the aforementioned too well NOT to want them.
After a while, the main targets of my wrath were Arch-viles and Mancubi, with secondary targets on Barons and Revs. Dodging be damned, as Mancubi seem to target, precisely, both sidestep locations you could take...it sure happened enough times for me to think so. And as for the Arch-viles, having to deal with 4+ at once can be frustrating: thankfully, BFG10K takes care of corpses rather well.
FYI, let me know if you want to know what Dervis' Medallion takes. I can keep it a secret if it seems like it should be one of those things.
-
seems a godlike run, very nice! Now do it in 24% of the time :)
May I ask what you needed Juggler for? And I wouldn't mind knowing about the Medallion.

May I ask what you needed Juggler for?
Well, quite frankly, MAc blocks off enough traits that there wasn't much else to get. In the end I had to choose between Reloader and Brute (after exhausting all desirable traits): at least Rel would help on the off-chance I needed some quick loading into my missile launcher. I wasn't expecting a DS, nor did I really need one. So to answer your question, I didn't NEED Juggler, it just happened to be more useful than Rel and Bru.
That isn't to say I didn't find a use for it, however. I kept plasma rifle and missile launcher in my slots and, after Juggler, could swap between them for zero downtime. In situations where I needed to use the BFG10K, that would take a second (but usually done beforehand); if for some reason (typically because I didn't want to kill myself) I wanted to switch out the BFG for my rifle, Juggler allowed for zero downtime using the quick-key "8". This proved extremely useful in cases where I needed the precision of the plasma rifle, or a quick dispersal via rockets. Normally I don't get Jug unless I've already gotten the really important traits (whatever master I've aimed for, probably HR/Iro) but there are definitely some vital uses. Trying to clear out the Mortuary with insta-BFG swap, for instance.
I should say I didn't reach max level until the 70s, didn't even try to kill monsters, with the exception of Hellish Caves that had no obvious exit.
(I'll mention the reqs. for Dervis' Medallion after some more feedback.)
-
I apploud you. This is truly impressive, I wasn't expecting anyone to pull this off in a while.
-
Congratulations on your win :+)
As for medallion, it's all explained on Doom RL wiki, so it's not a secret.
-
Wow, epic congratulations
-
Dervis (from our forum) was the first person to manage to do a Ao100 N! win, hence he got a medallion named after him in memory of that awesome feat :).
