I don't have time for a writeup now, but here's the mortem dump. Also, I missed having the spider's lair and it's nuclear plasgun. Also, I need to see if I can do something about accidentally picking Ironman so much.

Haha! I wondered how long it would take for you to put out a mortem like this. Just a day, apparently! :D
Also, what's this?
He flooded the entire level 3 with acid!
And you still didn't take any damage? :o I mean, well, I guess you could have had an envirosuit, which would've been a lucky find for level 3, but it's still confusing to me why you would risk the run by flipping a switch; those things are rarely worth it.
-
The switch was next to the stairs, I just used it, moved onto the stairs and waited.
-
Hehehe, Demonic Angelic Badge.
-
Truly unbelieveable, as usual.
-
Hehehe, Demonic Angelic Badge.
LOL! I didn't even notice that! That's quite ironic! :D
-
Whoah. How do you beat the Unholy Cathedral with a build like that? And you're not carrying a melee weapon. Did you bring along the chainsaw and then ditch it afterward?

Beating UC is no problem if you are faster than AoD (which means, both your movement and attack time is <0.67s, perhaps even less for those hordes in the antechambers). It does take quite some time - for me on UV it took ~40 minutes of whittling the AoD down by 1HP per attack. But it's definitely doable and speed is the key.
-
running loops and throwing a piercing knife can work.

Alas, it works pretty well, y. hasn't this been "fixed" in 0.9.9.7 ? I'd give angel of death 1 HP regen, or anything else... just to prevent this. Killing this juggernaut that way feels sooooo cheap :/
also, note you can loop inside the cathedral. it's way faster than looping around.
How do you melee kill him damageless ? I tought you'd need light speed to be sure he'll never have time to attack after you do. (i.e. sum of (as + ms) < .67)
Is there something easier to get, and still fail-safe ? I always got hit when I tried this, but I guess my as wasn't fast enough.

Here's what worked for me: I hit AoD once, fast enough that could not retaliate. Then I moved away from him, he followed, but since I had faster movement, after some moves he could not follow. Then I still moved, until he couldn't follow for the second time. Then I waited for one turn, which brought him into my melee range, but with enough time for me to strike without retaliation. And I moved again ...
Rinse and repeat for about half an hour, and you're fine even without any weapon and/or Brute.
I can't recall my movement/attack speeds at that time, but they both must be <0.67s for this plan to have a chance.
-
Couldn't you use a throwing knife so you would only have to worry about movement speed?
-
In that case it was a AoMC/UV game and I was playing a Cateye rapidfire Scout who decided to give Conqueror a shot - but the decision was made somewhere around Cybie. For that reason, I had no melee weapons whatsoever ...
-
I had a chainsaw, but I ditched it after I killed the AoD. Mainly though, I used the throwing knife strategy.
-
I'm a little sad no one noticed the new ranks we made.
=(
-
Of course we noticed.
And i hoped to get God Hand in this version, but it totally jumped out of my reach :) .

"Chaos Colonel," eh? Maybe, one day, that will be my rank too. It's nice to have something new to shoot for. :)

What the hell sort of deity are you?
