There's actually surprisingly little to say about UAC Diamond. Ironically enough, I took my time quite a bit on level 2, because I encountered a pretty great combination - "the air is really humid here", a computer map and exactly one lever, allowing me to safely flood the map with water and clear it out for experience and items. Other than that, it was a straight shotgun-fuelled sprint to the Chained Court, where I grabbed the chainsaw and berserk packs and shotgunned my way past the formers. (Berserk or not, charging sergeants and captains is not fun.) From there, a slightly less rushed sprint through the Anomaly and Deimos, taking opportunities to kill enemies safely in order to level up enough for the Cyberdemon (who ended a previous attempt - no medpacks, no berserk on entry, not enough experience). Unholy Cathedral was about as easy as one would expect for a blademaster - lost souls leave no corpses, demons file neatly into a doorway to die and the Angel can't stand up to sustained berserk chainsaw. Then a charge from there to Dis, with the LS in hand, sprint straight in a zig-zag towards the Mastermind and start swinging.
UAC Diamond feels like a relatively minor upgrade to simply winning on Nightmare normally. Assuming at least a few levels give you generous stair placement, it's really not as high-pressure as it looks - one minute is a long time, and it's certainly a lot easier than the old version. (I don't think I could've earned it back when it was a 15-minute limit, and stair sense didn't exist!)
I seriously doubt I'll be keeping up the rate of 1 diamond per day for long, but for now, I guess I'll follow the philosophy of my character, as he stated in the very last message of the entire run...
Next!
