I did this run a few weeks ago and wasn't going to post it here, but when building my mortem dump thread, I thought to take a search to see if anyone has actually done a Conqueror run in Angel of Darkness before, and the only such thread I could find was this
TwoDev thread. Of course it's accepted now that TwoDev's runs were bullshit (whether it be from him hacking the game to give himself god mode or posting outright fabricated mortems), so I'm going to assume this is the first time a Conqueror run in AoD has been pulled off (or at least the first one to do it legitimately and post it here). This was only on HMP and was why I wasn't going to post it here at first, but a Conqueror in AoD is still quite imposing. Hell's Arena in particular is very difficult, when you have no means yet of easy corpse disposal, are lacking traits even with the boosted EXP gain, and the reduced vision means you can't safely run -> wait anywhere on the map. Yet, surprising myself given how I couldn't do it the few times I tried before in some casual AoD runs, I managed to pull it off first try (taking advantage of Brute letting me kill Demons on the stairs easily so they had no corpse, and intentionally eating a few calculated plasma balls on troublesome Cacodemon corpses to destroy them). Then the rest of the run after went pretty smooth, while Berserker protected me from any big hits from enemies I couldn't see. Mortuary was going to be the big hurdle and I was ready for it with Blademaster + Scythe, but got Limbo instead. Not wanting to risk dying from getting repeatedly hit into lava and Limbo not having conductive ground for melee fighting, I just immediately hit the switches and then homing phased to huddle in one of the corners, waiting for nearly every enemy to come up to me and kill them. It was quite time consuming and I was always worried about accidentally going down the stairs (very easy to misclick when hitting the space bar now descends), but it wasn't hard once that setup was done. Most disappointed though I didn't get Spider's Lair, and so now I'll need to do another AoD run to get Arachno Silver (or try getting it whenever I eventually go for Hunter Diamond, which probably wouldn't be ideal).
Don't have much other commentary unfortunately, as again with this run being a few weeks old, I don't have fresh thoughts and didn't record much of it in the Discord server. However I did find out that you can still get the newly added Darkness even in AoD, and if it happens, your vision gets reduced to
four tiles, pretty nasty.
