Nightmare! / [N!|AoOC|100%|YAVP] Daredevil diamond YAAM
« on: August 26, 2012, 14:54 »
I found a sniper pack on the first level and turned my assault shotgun into a plasmatic assault shotgun on level 2 once I found a power mod, and I then used it for gibbing corpses after I'd killed things with my minigun or plasma rifle.  I had a close call on level 3 when the RNG dumped me beside a large pack of barons and arch-villes in an arena map (so bugger all cover), but I was berserking from a couple of berk packs I'd taken on my way out of the last level, so I didn't take much damage and was able to outrun them and give them a sprinkling of plasmatic shrapnel from a distance (with the aid of the shell box I started with) until they got tired of chasing me and lay down.  I got a super shotgun just before Dis, but I only got to fire it twice and didn't get to see it slaughtering packs of monsters.

Discussion / Modding uniques
« on: August 26, 2012, 07:11 »
What are the rules for modding uniques?  I just tried to power mod Malek's armour with my whizkid 2 technician, but it didn't work.  I thought you could apply a single mod or a basic assembly to uniques if you were a technician with both levels of whizkid.  I know that I've powermodded an acid spitter in the past with a whiz 2 technician (after it wouldn't let me put a firestorm pack on it, since spitting acid isn't the same as being an explosive weapon, apparently).

Nightmare! / [N!|AoOC|98%|7|YASD] Didn't notice the lava
« on: August 25, 2012, 19:31 »
So, things were going great; I found a plasma shotgun on the first level and was using it to gib corpses after I killed them with the plasma rifle or minigun, and it was more like playing U than N! since the plasma shotgun pretty much put a stop to all resurrection.  I was breezing through level 7, looking forward to a daredevil diamond YAAM, when a mancubus blasted me from the side, taking my health from 100% to 50% and knocking me back to what I thought was the edge of a lava pool.  I immediately used a medpack and proceeded to unload my minigun into the mancubus, killing it, but I failed to notice that I was standing on a lava tile until I'd sadly expired.

Also, what is it with all the butcher's cleavers I keep getting?  The game loves to give them to me, but I rarely have a use for them.

0.9.9.6 / [U|AoRA|100%|YAVP] Quartermaster diamond
« on: August 25, 2012, 08:16 »
I got lucky in this run; I had a shotgun scout build, and the duelist armour turned up on level 7, giving me a +15% move speed bonus except for the times when it was too damaged to risk wearing, then the jackhammer appeared in Hell's armoury and my favourite shotgun, the plasma shotgun, was on the next level.  Plasma shotguns are great for arch-vile packs since they gib any corpses on the ground, and being able to destroy walls without explosives is a nice bonus too.  Also, they fire 10 shots without needing to be pumped or reloaded, so they're like an assault shotgun on steroids.  A major bonus to having the plasma shotgun was simply being able to use cells when I was running low on shells, and I used my BFG 9000s as rechargeable batteries to feed the plasma shotgun.

I didn't try the lava pits since I wasn't confident that I could clear it in time, and didn't want to risk snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.  Hell's armoury was a close call; I didn't have time to loot the lab cache once it opened, and I only made it out with 2 seconds to spare.  The cacodemons on Hell's armoury have a tendency to wander off and it takes precious time to hunt them down.

Some more agility packs would have been nice; I only got 2, but I didn't really need more than that.

Discussion / Lightfoot diamond question
« on: August 24, 2012, 15:59 »
Does it break the 'no melee' conduct for the lightfoot diamond if you use fists?  I accidentally hit a former with my fists when it resurrected right in the square I was trying to move into.

6
This was a failed quartermaster diamond attempt.  It was going really well up until Deimos 7 when I got down to about 20 shotgun shells on my shottyman scout.  Fortunately I'd taken a trip through the halls of carnage for the BFG 9000, and that plus my rocket launcher was enough to finish off the cyberdemon, but Hell 1 and 2 were lousy for ammo and I got incinerated by an arch-vile on hell 3 while scrounging around for ammo, and probably also because I was getting tired and a bit careless.  I found a duelist armour early on in Phobos, which helped a lot with it's +15% move speed, and I slapped a power mod on it.  The duelist +15%, scout +10% and hellrunner 2 +30% speed meant that I could run rings around most things, though it was still a challenge to clear each map and make it to the exit in time.  I used invulnerability globes to survive the explosions a couple of times, but the only time it was really useful was in an arachnotron cave in hell 1 where I didn't have the ammo to take out the arachnotrons; I just hunkered down in a sheltered spot next to the invulnerability globe and killed a couple of arachnotrons while I waited for the bomb's timer to count down.

Nightmare! / [N!|93%|YAVP] Elite diamond
« on: August 22, 2012, 14:41 »
I was going for YAAM, but I couldn't kill the angel of death and I stopped being so fastidious about corpse disposal after that.  Also, I tried to clear the mortuary but got my arse handed to me and had to flee (first time trying it on N!), so that took a chunk out of my kill percentage.  I thought about going through the lava pits for explorer, but I didn't have any envirosuits and didn't fancy my chances, and it could have lost me the elite diamond by bringing my kill percentage down further.  I used the run-wait function a lot, for ambushing imps and formers up until the chained court, and for farming commandos for cells later on, but I find the game gets much more forgiving after the chained court, so I rely less on cheese after that point when playing N!.

I went scavenger since I find it the most interesting and rewarding master trait; you never know when you'll get that exotic mod you always wanted when you disassemble something.  I got a nanopack when I dissasembled the acid spitter I found in level 12, and used it for my A-modded antigrav boots (+60% move speed).  I got another +15% move speed from some duelist armour, though I never got an agility mod to slap on it (I'd already used 3 agility mods on some A-modded tactical boots earlier on).  I had a cerberus ballistic vest that I was hoping to get an onyx mod for, but it got destroyed in the mortuary and I never got an onyx mod.

I missed out on the mastermind's brain when my biggest fucking gun knocked it back into range of me and I got a burst of bullets from it.  I also missed out on finishing it off with my Grammaton Cleric Baretta since I didn't have any ammo for it.

Nightmare! / [N!|AoB|97%|YAVP] Berserker diamond
« on: August 15, 2012, 15:08 »
There weren't any nukes, I couldn't clear out the spiders' lair to get the nuclear plasma rifle and the nuclear BFG 9000 got obliterated by mancubi and barons in the mortuary, so I had to settle for a standard win.  I could have activated the lava element and gotten the mastermind's brain, but I was getting tired by that point and forgot about it.  I had a single phase device for the vaults, but it fizzled. 

I had a bunch of enviropacks for the lava pits, but I found that I could keep my health at 200% by farming lost souls from the pain elementals and using them as unlimited mini-berserk packs.  Every time I took damage from lava or revenants, I'd cut up some lost souls with the butcher's cleaver and heal up with my MVr while extending my berserk counter.  I could kill 2-5 lost souls in a single turn thanks to the blademaster trait from the butcher's cleaver.  When I was farming lost souls for heath, I'd unequip my armour to save it from getting messed up.  I'd planned to use the ballistic shield in the UC, but I found an invulnerability globe on the previous level and was invulnerable for the whole time it took to kill everything in UC. 

I took juggler so that I could switch between the Longinus spear and the butcher's cleaver depending on what I was attacking (spear for tough monsters, cleaver for weak ones or for finishing off injured tough ones).  I also found that finesse worked pretty well in melee; it meant I could often get 2 hits in before a monster retaliated, and 2 hits were usually enough to kill things by that point in the game.

Nightmare! / [N!|AoB|75%|8|YASD] This is really, really hard
« on: August 13, 2012, 02:35 »
After a 150 or so attempts, the Phobos anomaly is the furthest I've made it on N! AoB.  My strategy was to lure formers and imps into doorways so that I could kill them with one or two knife hits and where they wouldn't leave corpses that could regenerate, while avoiding demons, hell knights and cacodemons until I reached the chained court and picked up the chainsaw, or unless I was berserking.  Lost souls are ok, since I can back away from them and then kill them with one hit when they catch up with me usually, often without taking damage once I reach brute 2.  If I try to take on demons, hell knights and cacodemons before I get the chainsaw or when I'm not berserking, I quickly run out of medkits.

I gift drop the formers to get them into doorways and with the imps I either poke my head out to get their attention and hope I dodge the fireball, or wait for them to random-walk their way into the doorway.  I use running and zig-zagging to approach monsters in the open when I don't have any other choice, or just charge at them head on in the case of sergeants, but that means taking 2-3 shotgun blasts to the face, so I avoid it if at all possible.  The only good thing about sergeants on AoB is that they can take out whole groups of monsters via friendly fire.

The pistols and shotgun in my inventory are from clearing items from doorways so that I can either drop a medkit/armour there or close the door.

Anyone got any advice for dealing with the Phobos anomaly when going for a MVr build?  I got mauled to death in the room with all the nightmare demons and cacodemons.

Nightmare! / [N!|AoOC|25%|YAVP] Nano-modded RL
« on: August 11, 2012, 06:46 »
I was taking shots at the mastermind with my shotgun while hiding behind a pillar, but then the mastermind lost interest in me and wandered off.  I had a rocket launcher with just a single rocket, but fortunately I had a nano pack and a few rockets from my modded RL was all it took to finish off the mastermind.

Nightmare! / [N!|AoPc|15%|YAVP] nuked the mastermind
« on: August 11, 2012, 04:37 »
I finally made it to the mastermind with a nuke.  Pity I didn't have a second nuke; maybe I should have risked swinging past the mortuary for the nuclear BFG 9000.  I had enough invulnerability to have nuked JC if only I'd had something to nuke him with.  I picked up int 2 this time, to avoid being ambushed like last time, but I can't say I found it particularly useful on this run; more just an insurance policy.  Int 1 is great though for picking up berk packs, invulnerability globes and computer maps.

This is my best attempt tonight at N! AoPc.  My strategy was to use a scout with Int 1 and plot a course between the various powerups, particularly berserk packs, invulnerability orbs and computer maps while searching for the stairs.  That way, I was either berserking or invulnerable about 80% of the time, and I was running the rest of the time.  When I died, I was heading for an invulnerability orb on level 23, which turned out to be surrounded by archvilles and mancubi, and then a baron crept up behind me as I was retreating and detonated a barrel beside me.

Nightmare! / [N!|AoPc|13%|24|YASD] Didn't have a nuke
« on: August 09, 2012, 16:18 »
I got as far as the mastermind, but the only nuke I'd seen (except for the one I started with and used on the cyberdemon) was obliterated a few levels earlier by a group of barons and a bunch of mancubi and revenants took out an invulnerability globe on the level immediately before Dis.

This is the second time that I've made it to the mastermind on N! AoPc (the first time was about 4 hours ago), but I didn't know about the melee weapon crash-on-death issue when I did it the first time, so I don't have a mortem for that one.  It took me about 50 attempts for each time I reached the mastermind, with the great majority of the deaths being on the first couple of levels.

I found that I could get an extra level of experience by getting monsters to kill each other in crossfire or with barrels on the first two levels; after that, monster deaths stop contributing to experience.  It meant that I was often level 3 once I reached Hell's Arena.

So, my first post here.  I started playing the game a couple of months ago and this is my first N! win and my first win that didn't involve savescumming.

On my previous best attempt at a N! Ao100 run, I ran out of ammo and then burned through my phase devices and medkits while trying to scrounge for more ammo, and died on level 36.  This time, I found a nuclear plasma rifle on level 24, which I modded P2B3 and which became my primary weapon and allowed me to devote most of my inventory slots to homing phase devices (which I ended up not needing, even though I had about 8 of them at one point), nukes (I used these just to speed up the process of clearing levels, and unfortunately I spotted a firestorm mod pack on one of the levels after I'd set a nuke, and couldn't reach it in time), medkits etc.  I was running from lava on level 24 and the lava was advancing really fast, so it was fortunate that I stumbled upon the nuclear plasma rifle before the lava reached it.

I used a minigun as a backup weapon for tight situations where I couldn't wait for the nuclear plasma rifle to recharge, and I had a missile launcher for gibbing corpses, though I only bothered gibbing large groups or particularly dangerous ones.  I'd have liked a plasma shotgun, since they're great for gibbing corpses, but I didn't find one.  I'd also hoped to get explosive ammo for the minigun, but it wasn't to be.

I got a ballistic vest somewhere around level 25, but I had to wait until level 54 for an agility pack to turn it into a cerberus ballistic vest and my only red armour got destroyed long before that, so for a while my only protection came from the ballistic vest, a plasma shield (which I repaired several times with megaspheres and which was a huge help in arachnotron/cacodemon caves) and green/blue armours.

I found a nano pack around level 65 and held onto it for a while to see what mods and equipment would show up that I could use it with.  I ended up making a nanomachic plasma rifle on level 72, and although I wasn't sure whether I was making the right decision given that I already had a nuclear plasma rifle, it turned out to be a great choice; the nanomachic plasma rifle was an enormous improvement over the nuclear version and with infinite ammo and no reload or recharge time, I could cut my way through almost anything with a ceaseless barrage of plasma.  I also used it to cut through walls.  I wanted a firestorm pack to complete it, but the first one I'd seen earlier on had gotten nuked, a second one had been destroyed by a revenant before I could pick it up and the third one that I finally modded my rifle with appeared on level 100, about 10 squares away from the final stairs.

I carried some gothic boots from early on until about level 70, when I finally tossed them to make space in my inventory, only to find the gothic armour a couple of levels later.  The gothic set wouldn't have helped me much that late in the game, but I'd have liked to try it out to see what it's like in action.  The boots at least saved me a little health when crossing lava a few times until I got a complete phaseshift suit.

I set a nuke and also overloaded my nuclear plasma rifle on level 100, just to see what would happen when I went down the stairs.  I tried to set a second nuke, and got the message "Are you crazy?", IIRC.

BTW, does it count as a kill if you kill something and it resurrects before you leave the level?  Do you just have to kill everything once for it to show up in your kill percentage, or do you have to kill everything and make sure they stay dead?
