Strategy:Dragonslayer

2013-10-16T14:45:03Z

Aki: not until there's some form of proof

{{infostrat switch}}

=== 0.9.9.7 ===
The Dragonslayer, perhaps the most elusive weapon, is the hardest weapon to use if you don't know how to obtain it.

A few of the DoomRL gurus know how to drop both the Berserker Armor and the Dragonslayer every time in a run, but the rest of us are kind of clueless on how to do such a feat.

However, here are some guidelines:

* The Dragonslayer and the Berserker armor are related, but one can actually use the Dragonslayer without the Berserker Armor. The Dragonslayer is required to WEAR the Berserker armor, not vice versa.

* The Dragonslayer will drop in the Unholy Cathedral in place of Azarel's Sycthe when played on Nightmare! (under some extra conditions, possibly on a damageless run?). Unfortunately, no one except those who know exactly how to have been able to pick it up and use it.

* The Berserker Armor can only be worn if you are wielding the Dragonslayer.

Not much has been found out about the Dragonslayer. If someone finds out a way to pick up the Dragonslayer reliably, we do not encourage you to post how on this wiki.

Hi mate!

Glad to see someone starting off some of the strategy pages.

Just wanted to throw in that where possible it'd be a great idea to sign your name where possible on some of the strategy pages. Putting 4 tildes (~) in a row will automatically throw in a link to your user page and the time/date of the edit. It's not in the manual, but it is general convention to do so for anything that you've "said" on the wiki (IE: It's not a fact and in the actual weapon pages).

Hope to see you around! [[User:Aki|Aki]] ([[User talk:Aki|talk]]) 10:08, 14 October 2013 (CEST)

Hi again!

Feel free to respond on your own talk page. It's a lot less confusing that way for everyone as the chat logs pile up. Well, for me anyway. :p

Maps for areas is something that I really look forward to - I bugged some of the people in IRC about it the other day actually. How are you planning on doing that? [[User:Aki|Aki]] ([[User talk:Aki|talk]]) 02:31, 16 October 2013 (CEST)

Also if possible, could you send me a pm on the chaosforge forums? [[User:Aki|Aki]] ([[User talk:Aki|talk]]) 09:08, 16 October 2013 (CEST)

Strategy:Elephant gun

2013-10-15T23:47:27Z

Aki:

{{infostrat switch}}

==Elephant gun==

===0.9.9.7===
No significant changes to the weapon

The '''Elephant gun''' is a basic [[assembly]] from a [[shotgun]], and created by applying two [[power mod]] packs. The resultant weapon is a 12d3 shotgun with a full 2.5 second reload time.

Clearly not designed for regular use, the elephant gun's strong point is its power. The idea with this weapon is to kill the monster before it kills you. If the enemy isn't dead after this gun pumps it full of 12d3 shot, you're either screwed because you a) don't have a backup weapon or b) you actually took the 2.5 seconds to reload the gun and then you got mobbed and slaughtered by lost souls.

OR, you could load up in [[Strategy:Traits#Reloader|Reloader]] and [[Strategy:Traits#Shottyman|Shottyman]] and get the reload speed under control. An investment in [[Strategy:Traits#Juggler|Juggler]] is also a good idea.

Bottom line? A good weapon to have if you're doing a shotgun build, not a very economical use of power mod packs otherwise. Even when using with a shotgun build, this is not a weapon to be weilding all the time, as the reload speed can really get in the way. Try the [[tactical shotgun]] as your primary gun and this or a [[focused double shotgun]] or even the [[Jackhammer]] as a secondary weapon.

[[User:GinDiamond|GinDiamond]] ([[User talk:GinDiamond|talk]]) 22:28, 15 October 2013 (CEST)

I'd just like to add that the Elephant gun is the single most ammo efficient shotgun bar something ridiculous such as a P modded SSG or something. The Elephant gun's effectiveness at with Gunrunner and Shottyman is one of the scariest (non-broken) things that i've seen - Due to drop-off it performs somewhat better then a Double Shotgun unless you're right next to them (And with 12d3 or 9d3x2 they won't be for long), and most importantly it doesn't chew through your shells like the dragonslayer chews through nightmare demons. If you're doing a Gunrunner build, always keep this weapon in mind - Aim for smoething like a [[tactical shotgun]] first, however.

Accuracy

Almost every attack, against the player or against the minions of Hell, has a chance of missing its target.

Each attack has an accuracy (or to-hit) score depending on parameters like the weapon's accuracy and the attacker's traits. To determine if the attack hits, the game rolls 3d6. If the accuracy is greater than or equal to the roll then the attack hits, otherwise it misses. There is one exception to this rule: if the roll is 3 or 4 then the attack always hits, and if the roll is 17 or 18 then the attack always misses no matter how high the accuracy is.

The base accuracy for every attack is 10 (which gives a 50% chance to hit).

The following properties modify this accuracy:

* Accuracy of the [[weapons|weapon]] (each weapon's page lists that weapon's accuracy bonus)

* For the player, each level of the [[Eagle Eye]] trait provides a +2 bonus to all attacks

* For each level of [[Brute]], the player also receives an additional +2 bonus to melee attacks

* [[alternate fire#aimed shot|Aimed shots]] receive a +3 bonus

* If the attacker is [[tactics|running]], it gets a -2 penalty

* If the target is running, the attack receives a -4 penalty

* For ranged attacks, the accuracy decreases by 1 for every three units of [[distance]] from the target. This works out to -2 at LOS range. Weapons modified with a [[sniper weapon pack]] do not have this penalty.

* Each [[enemies|enemy]] has an inherent accuracy bonus (as listed on its page)

* Enemy accuracy is modified by [[Game Settings#difficulty|difficulty level]]:
** I'm Too Young To Die: -1
** Hey, Not Too Rough: +0
** Hurt Me Plenty: +0
** Ultra-Violence: +2
** Nightmare!: +2

* On [[Angel of Max Carnage]], all attacks receive a +12 bonus

Any shot that would otherwise hit an enemy that is outside your line of sight has an additional 50% chance to miss. Weapons modified with 2 [[sniper weapon pack]]s do not have this penalty.

[[Explosions|Explosive]] attacks that miss the target might still do damage if the target is caught in the blast radius. The attacks of revenants and arch-viles always explode on the targetted square, which is why accuracy doesn't really apply to them.

In addition, the player has an extra chance to dodge enemy attacks while moving (see [[Dodging]]).

==Difficulty==
Game difficulty roughly emulates that of the original game. There are five to select from:
* '''I'm Too Young to Die (ITYTD)''': The easiest difficulty, in many ways. Ammo is doubled, enemy spawns are at their lowest, healing and powerup durations are doubled. A good way to start playing the game, although you won't have access to every [[Levels#Special levels|special level]] available nor play any challenges.
* '''Hey, Not Too Rough (HNTR)''': The "standard" difficulty for many players. Given that all multipliers are set to one, challenges are allowed, and all special levels are now available, this is an appropriate moniker.
* '''Hurt Me Plenty (HMP)''': The first "difficult" difficulty. More numerous and accurate enemies appear at earlier floors, giving you less time to prepare for the late stages of the game.
* '''Ultra-violence (UV)''': The difficulty of DoomRL veterans. This is the point where even the first few floors of the game can kill you reliably if you don't know the inns and outs of the game. It is unlocked at the Lance Corporal [[Ranks#Skill Ranks|skill rank]].
* '''Nightmare! (N!)''': The exclamation point does not lie, this difficulty is for hardcore players only. In addition to Ultra-violence changes, enemies can respawn at any time, are faster (relative to you), and attack more often. You can't save, either! At least several of the ITYTD benefits are back to help. It is unlocked at the Sergeant skill rank.

The differences in game difficulty may seem subtle, but switching to a harder difficulty is easily the most frustrating part of playing DoomRL, [[Badges#Diamond badges|diamond badges]] aside. Difficulty information has been tabulated: the columns are identified as follows:

* '''Shorthand''': How the difficulty is expressed on the score page (and in mortem tags on the forums)
* '''Score Multiplier''': How much your score is increased by, just by playing on that difficulty level
* '''Ammo Multiplier''': For randomly generated ammo, how much extra is added to each stack
* '''Enemy Accuracy''': How much the enemies' accuracy is changed on this difficulty
* '''Enemy Spawns''': How many enemies spawn on randomly generated levels, and how much their depth level is modified
* '''Healing/Powerups''': The duration/strength of powerups, and the health gain of small healing items
* '''XP Multipler''': How much increased experience is gained for killing enemies
* '''Special''': Any extra features regarding the difficulty level

Berserker's second ability is probably the most underrated one. The 10 hp rule is in place for the sake of (Arch)Angel of Humanity - you won't notice this effect in regular games unless you have used the Trigun/Azrael's Scythe extensively.

From the traits page, you can see that the effect gives you 20 turns of berserk when you're hit by a single source of damage that's equal to 1/3 or more of your max hp - sorry, no arachnotrons sending you berserk. However, there's a few mechanics that arn't specified there that really make this useful.

First of all, it's 1/3 of your hpMAX floored - so if you're playing as a scout/technician, this means that you need to be hit for 16 or more damage. If you're playing as a marine, you need to be hit for 20 or more damage. If you're playing as a marine with Iro 3, you need to be hit by a whopping damage. Keep this in mind when selecting your traits/class - what this means is that essentially you could get a free berserk every time the [[Cyberdemon]] or [[Angel of Death]] melee you when playing as a scout/technician

Secondly, the damage needed to send you berserk is rolled for before taking your protection and resistances into account - hence if you had no points in Iro but wore fireproof red armor, a [[Revenant]] rocket could send you berserk despite doing very little damage. This also means that a cyberdemon rocket could send you berserk despite having the Inquisitor's set equipped.

Lastly, the berserk effect is activated before damage calculation. This means that you gain an additional 60% resistance to everything in addition to the effects of your equipped armor and traits - meaning the Revenant rocket in the previous example could berserk you with as little as 1 damage done to you.

Might want to think twice about running away from that Cyberdemon now, right? [[User:Aki|Aki]] ([[User talk:Aki|talk]]) 03:51, 5 October 2013 (CEST)
