But i cant really imagine winning the game using any other strategy. Looks like its the only possible way, very limiting i'd say.What will you say about AoB or any other melee game?

For a mixed melee game...i dont know.
No, reaching the Court is relatively easy. Well, not easy easy, but doable. But getting from Court to Cathedral is pretty much impossible.

Blade, you're my kind a' (doom)guy! :P
+Intuition -Shotguns is the way I've been keeping it.
I rarely use shotguns, although they've some up-sides: they make the lvl0 of H.diff and up much easier than in the easier difficulties, which is reaaaaly good.
But it seems more often they cause unwanted barrel explosions, near-melee behaviour and so on. Chaingun+SoaB(3)=32.5 avgdmg per trigger, 6.5 per shot, piercing almost any monster armor value at mindmg=4 per shot, with ammo carefuly watched taking out beasties through the late-game.
I've been using Intuition since I'd discovered it, and it makes things a whole lot easier.
Since I almost only use chainguns anyway, I don't really care WHAT I'm shooting at, as long as there's something there. The only problem then is barrels (but that's true anyway), and the occasional surprise wall. Plus, it enables strategic use of levers, like the rare retreat followed by flooding a room with lava, or much more frequently, bringing down the walls for a "fastest route" between the supercharge/invulnerability to the stairs (not to mention sure healing and armor repair).
Okay, it seems that Intuition (3) strategy is very much viable on UV, but its really boring and "undoomish" (God, what a stupid word...).
I mean, sniping everyone from 15 steps away, shooting in the darkness ? Well...
