I went through a bunch of builds trying to figure out what to go with.  Obviously the Scout is a no-brainer in a time pressure situation, and maxing out Hellrunner is vital as movement is what eats up most of your five minutes.  From there it was just a battle between me and finding the fastest, most powerful, most trait efficient build.  Traits were scarce as I got sick of just randomly dying to the 100% requirement on small room and maze levels, so I resigned myself to early-ish Int2.

A Gun Kata build is maximally time-efficient, but it takes so long to kick in.  I died around levels 6-8 a bunch of times trying to get the experience up.  Likewise Shottyhead builds are too slow, and you don't have time to really play a berserker build as patiently as you should.  So this game I did something I seldom do:  I played a chaingunner.  I don't know why, but I've really shied away from rapid-fire builds for the last... ever.  It just underdamages both Berserk and Dualgunner, but its trait-efficient and provided crucial power in the early game.  I ran some math and you just can't beat a chaingun for efficient enemy disposal pre-Anomaly. 

So I figured out how to beat the Arena in 5 minutes, then figured out the conditions under which the Chained Court was doable (either a combat shotty or a shell box).  I managed to not screw up long enough to get to the end, which is the story of just about every game.  Next up is Destroyer, I think.

As someone who recently achieved that badge too I know how irritating and hard this challenge is.

And I see that your strategy and build was quite different from mine.

That's interesting, why you didn't enter lava pits? I think you shouldn't have any problems with it and with trigun and lava element you could get full victory without any troubles at all.

Also you picked Int 2 much later than I and thats really impressive to me. I remember how much trouble I had on several first levels(and also arena) when I didn't pick int-int as my second and third traits.

I didn't enter the lava pits because I tossed my envirosuit pack to make room for ammo at the beginning of Hell... I was carrying too many weapons and armors.  This is why I don't like playing rapid fire guys, in general -- without ammochain, it puts tremendous pressure on your inventory.  Anyway, I never found another and I wasn't fast enough to just run through the lava, so I skipped it.
