BFG9000, the ultimate in conventional DoomRL warfare, is highly efficient against practically any foe, but consumes ammunition like there's no tomorrow.
A few tips on efficient use:
- BFG is the best weapon to use against targets you want to take out really quickly. Archviles (doubly so those in the Mortuary) or mancubi can serve as a prime example, although, more likely than not, these would require two shots to go down. If you don't mind a bit of an overkill, you can, with near-certainty, take out those nasty former commandos and revenants in one shot as well. Cyberdemon will then die (on average) after 5, 6, 7, 9 and 11 shots (with growing difficulty level). For the Mastermind and JC add 1 to Cyberdemon's numbers.
- If at all possible, try to hit multiple foes at once. The explosion radius of 10 is a definite help to this.
- If you happen to find another BFG, take it to save space in your inventory.. Its clip can hold 100 plasma cells, while an inventory slot can hold only 50 (70 with backpack).
- Bulk-modding the BFG once increases the number of shots without reloading from two to three, which can be a life-saver at times. Another bulk mod will then increase this number to four, another one to five (the exact clip sizes are 130, 169 and 220).
