I wish I could get that far.    I always go to Hell's Arena first and ussually get murdered or if I'm lucky, survive and continue until I get killed by a Cacodemon by the 5th floor or something. 


I am no pro at DoomRL, but it's fun.

[DFNewb]

the wall for me was on the 8th level I think
anyways I am in Phobos hell level 4 is that far?

EDIT: Damn it I just died stupid Achrons and relvents or what ever the hell they are called.

Levers that release lava... Come on, this developer has to play Dwarf Fortress!

[ToonyMan]

Make sure to read those feeling you get when you enter the next level.  They tell you if there is a lever that floods the world with lava.


You feel that smell? That gasoline smell? Oh hell...

The Mortuary is probably the worst level in the game. It's completely open, 70% of the floor is covered in corpses, and 5+ Arch-Viles spawn as soon as you enter. If you manage to clear it, you get the best armor in the game though. Angelic Armor has all the protection of red armor, and doesn't affect your move speed at all. It's much better than the Phaseshift Armor, which increases your knockback a ridiculous amount.

 Before him 9 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:

 And 1 couldn't handle the stress and committed a stupid suicide.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Poor sap ran out of ammo, and the damned AoM challenge prevented him from using so much as a combat knife.  I punched that damn baron with my last breath, and I'm damn proud of it.  I even managed to punch a couple demons and a few imps to death.

The hardest part of hell is keeping your ammo stocks up...


I've actually sent a hell of a lot more souls into hell, it's just that I lost a huge amount of data last time I tried (and failed) to savescum.  I'm not trying that again.

And the "stupid suicide" was when I pulled a lever while standing in between two barrels.  The lever was one of those that explodes all barrels on the level.  I never had a chance.

[ToonyMan]

And the "stupid suicide" was when I pulled a lever while standing in between two barrels.  The lever was one of those that explodes all barrels on the level.  I never had a chance.

Same.   



Who else has done that?

[SolarShado]

I have! Not quite as described by Kagus, but thise levers have killed me more than once.

I managed to kill the Cyberdemon once, haven't even made it to him a second time...

[Sergius]

Oddly enough, I got lucky and finished it on my first run, without savescumming or anything. It's all about luck and finding the right kinds of weapons right from the beginning. Any further attempts to beat the game have been really pathetic and I have been overwhelmed by sheer numbers and suckiness.

But it's a damn fun game, and its use of sound for a roguelike is just genius.

I was playing on Hard ofcourse and let me put a rundown on what happened.


LEVEL 1:  Went smoothly, I get hit though.

LEVEL 2: First time Hell's Arena wasn't here, whatever fine run.

LEVEL 3:  This is where it got hard, I had used up all my med-kits and there wasn't any health around, beat it at about 18%.

LEVEL 4:  Barely died a few times, I got realllllyy lucky, I also found a Combat Shotgun and Chaingun for later. Still had 18% Health.

LEVEL 5:  Found a berserk pack then went on a rampage with my awesome 100% and killed about 10 people!

LEVEL 6:  Was very confident now, when I leveled up to level 4 I got Eagle Eye for now I was using the Chain Gun sololy.  Killed like 6 imps and walked into a room to see........

2 Former Humans
1 Former Sergant (ent?)
1 Demon
6 Imps
and
1 Hell Knight

Well, I killed the demon and the humans by waiting at the door for them to come, then I sniped a Imp with my Chaingun before I just ran in guns blazing.  I hit that stupid Hell Knight 8 times with the chaingun! 8x5=40 and he was still standing, the imps were shooting me while I tried taking the Hell Knight down, I didn't even kill him and one of the imps got me.



I might be exaggerating though.   

[SolarShado]

When i see hell knights i bring out the rocket launcher.
course, i stick to ITYTD, and floor 6 sounds way too early to find rocket launchers...

[ToonyMan]

The only thing I found related to Rocket Launchers was that I found 3 rockets on the 5th floor.  If I went to Hell's Arena for the Rocket Launcher, I would of died horribly, horrible, horrible.
