"Destroyer Diamond" : Win Angel of Max Carnage on Nightmare! with "Untouchable Cross" (taking damage less than 50)


My old Destroyer Diamond is obtained with mixing AoOC (indeed it's a bug, as "Untouchable Cross" itself is banned with AoCn/AoOC)
So I was trying to obtain "pure" Destroyer Diamond, that is, w/o mixing with AoCn/AoOC (and AoLT, which makes combat easier)


Dammit! It was really really close, but slightly failed..
I've taken 52 damage overall, and huge part of that damage was from really silly mistakes.



1. At Phobos Entry Base, it's hard to pass there damageless (as you won't have Int2 here yet)
So you might have to startscum to face favorable map layout.
This time, I was so tired to do that, so just passed there with 8 damage.
Usually I never do so.

2. In the battle vs. Cyberdemon, I made two silly mistakes, taking 16 damage.
Of course, taking damage vs Cyberdemon is never allowed to make a successful run of Destroyer Diamond,
since Tower of Babel stage is one of easiest parts to pass damageless.


24 damage from really silly and elementary mistakes... wtf!!


I think I can make it in next tries.

Nice work there man. Only a week or so ago you seemed to think this an impossible task, now look at you :)

Say, that "Targeted for extermination" thing, was that just the regular hunting event or that weird "Enemies constantly teleporting next to you" event that the wiki doesn't really mention.

"Targeted for extermination", IIRC, means that monsters know your position right from when you enter the level, and actively hunt you down.
Combined with N! and level 23, this sounds pretty damn scary ...

That is what the hunting event is and it certainly would be scary. I'm just asking, because I'm trying to track down anyone else that's encountered the teleportation event, which I think may be a very rare subset of the Hunting events.
