Well, this is my first UV win, and I really have to give credit to ZicherCZ for suggesting trying AoMC if you're having trouble with regular UV. It definitely makes for a tougher school, but it is easier in some ways. Even an unmodded chaingun with no skill can one burst kill formers (not commando) and imps. My tactic in the first few levels was, go to middle of intersection (preferably with some cover) and wait for stuff to wander into your line of sight. Boring, but...
This is actually only the second game I tried this build. Previously I'd been going for an ammochain build, and hoping for the mods for an assault cannon or similar. Apparently I'm a little better with ammo conservation than I am with keeping from being shot at the edge of vision, so Cateye worked nicely. (Cateye + Light goggles + intuition 2 makes for an amazing field of view.)
This game also had a lot of luck in it; I found an Onyx pack at the armory and made a plate armor, which I used for nearly all of the game. I also found a medical armor, a gothic armor (which I nanofibered, and used on spidey. Silly me assumed it did bullet damage. :) and a duelists armor (used in unholy cathedral).
On the other hand, the RNG mocked me with the first sniper mod I've ever seen, so I guess it evens out. ;)
