Title: AoD
Post by: Supernaut on January 04, 2007, 08:00
Sounds like the best Slayers song.

I got to him and DEFEATED him. With a nuke.

Is there anyone who punched him to hell and survived? Is there a way to defeat him :) ? In fact i have never seen him because the lost souls almost killed me  (lol) so i activated nuke and teleported.

Well, not punched him, but chainsawed him alright :P. It's better if you get to berserk stance prior to fighting him, so your best bets are getting Berserker (at least level 2) or playing Angel of Berserk challenge (where you should get Berserk anyway for some extra punch <-GET IT? GET IT? HA HA HA :P) and using a large med-kit.

I think without berserk he's tough as hell to beat, for what I've read.

As Andral already said. Chainsaw + Berserk = gg AoD.
Killing the AoD in an Angel of Berserk game is fairly easy as you only have to use a large med to trigger berserk once you reach melee range and then it's like 4 or 5 hits with the chainsaw and he's down.
In normal games you need at least Brute(2) + Berserker(1) to take him down (I did it with that) and of course the chainsaw. Berserk usually triggers while you fight the demons outside the final door and it lasts long enough to get the needed 4 or 5 hits to bring the AoD down.

It happens not only in UC, and not only with Lost Souls. Sometimes chainsaw doesn't sounds at all with any monster.

Same here.
And I'm not sure that means it missed, although it seems to always sound when you kill something.

I think this sound bug has already been reported. And if it doesn't, then Kornel will surely read this and add it up to the list :)

Heh, I read AoD as Army of Darkness...

(...IDEA...no, nevermind.  Those crappy EvilDead game kinda ruined it.)

This screen is not a fake. If you still haven't got the trick, take a look at my weapon.

You can kill AoD if you have Brute*3 + Berserk*3 + 2 large meds + great luck + nothing more.))

I saved before UC, because i was sure that i won't be able to do it at first try. And i was right(i don't want this to be honest game, i just want to see if it is possible). He have very tough armor(maybe 5, as says Wiki, but it seemed to me that much more), and even Berserker and Brute*3 aren't dealing enough damage. When i just punched him, i lowered his health only to wounded status before he killed me. The only way to kill him that way if you don't have 6 large medikits is to force him to bleed, fortunately with Berserk you are causing enemies to bleed quite often. So i punched him until he begins to bleed, then run to the left(that's because i killed him near the enter) while he is bleeding, then stops and puches him again. That's the trick. I left LS lying in the ruins(it was very hard, but i want to beat all game without any weapon). Cyberdemon kill with bare hands coming soon.))

Note to guys that runs Wiki: Every time he hit me when i was Berserker and wasn't wearing armor, he dealt 8 damage.

Well, these last 2 posts cleared some things up for me - not as "easy" as it had seemed :)

I have already beaten it. Do it one more time? Maybe later...

You mean the win on AoH, or is there one I'm not aware of?
I wanted to know if you're the first General yet :)
Title: Re: AoD
Post by: Blade on January 06, 2007, 14:58
Yes, i mean AoH. I tried to make it without challenges, but died on level 12 surrounded by 8(or more)) BoHs. After that i haven't tried.))

Interesting, eh? In both cases you survived ~12 dlvls. Maybe this means something about game balance.
