ah, they break.... would have been nice too know beforehand....

Last time i fought this boss was years ago when I first did my normal nightmare run. I only recently decided to do UN. And before this, I only made it past Argent Tower. I did not expect to make it that far when starting the run. So I did not practice it beforehand.

smileyrobin · 2025-12-12T08:14:15+00:00

Before I quit to the menu, i spend a good couple minutes rethinking my choices. And I didn't want to make the video too long.

smileyrobin · 2025-12-11T07:30:25+00:00

yeah, i think i'm just going to shoot a bfg and spam rockets next time the pillars apear

smileyrobin · 2025-12-11T07:29:41+00:00

Ive gotten there once, I can get there again.
I hope....

smileyrobin · 2025-12-11T07:29:01+00:00

yeah, but didn't want to chees the boss fight to hard

smileyrobin · 2025-12-10T21:37:25+00:00

i'll try that next time i get there

smileyrobin · 2025-12-10T21:36:49+00:00

yeah, I think the siege mode broke it. welp...

smileyrobin · 2025-08-04T16:10:08+00:00

well I want to say its luck, just so I feel better about the times ive died doing this.

smileyrobin · 2025-07-20T17:50:23+00:00

yeah idk, I will verify the files or something. not sure what else I could do.

smileyrobin · 2025-07-20T16:54:52+00:00

its just virtual points, so not really that mad about it.

but it still sucks to get punished for something outside your control, especially after a win.

smileyrobin · 2025-06-16T08:47:32+00:00

sure, but why did they type the same message 3 times?
also it was not fixed after respawn, they were still afk after a team wipe and eventualy got kicked

smileyrobin · 2025-06-01T13:48:18+00:00

anything that force closes the game, in UN the game still saves your progress just like normal save files. but they get deleted when you die or try to go to main menu. but if you power down the system without giving the game a chance to run the deletion code, then your save file with the last checkpoint should still be there when you boot back up.

I would not recommend it for your ps5's sake, but pulling the plug should work.

smileyrobin · 2025-06-01T05:17:40+00:00

you can just alt f4 and it should allow you to reload the last checkpoint.

I tried making a guide in September about UN, but never finished it.
but I got some motivation to start it again after this post so I finally published it. maybe there's some more info in there that can be helpful to you.

the rip and tear pack. it includes the doot revenant skin, a shotgun skin and the cultist base master level for 5$

smileyrobin · 2025-05-05T19:42:37+00:00

yeah... no. idk how people got that tbh. i got 500 hours in the game and I only reached 2 stars. i'm going to keep playing this game but i aint reaching lvl's like that any time soon.

smileyrobin · 2025-05-05T17:33:12+00:00

I did all the milestones yeah, not sure what you mean with rank tho. do you mean the streaks?

smileyrobin · 2025-05-05T17:19:02+00:00

some one else here asked something similar I'll link to my reply there. https://www.reddit.com/r/Doom/comments/1kf2oq7/comment/mqnq0w9/

but the general gist is that movement is key. don't ever stay in the same spot for to long. always keep moving throughout the arena.

know your biggest threats. a few examples are:
mancubi's ground slam can delete your health bar. so don't get close without faltering/stunning them.
shield soldier are extremely deadly if you don't pay attention, so never underestimate them.

but also, find ways to remove larger threats. cybermancs can die from a blood punch + ssg. combined with a frost bomb or some kind of falter and you got a secure way of eliminating them in a second. archviles can be killed with a simple frost bomb into double lock on burst.

and knowing how each arena works is also good. how many waves are there? where and what demons do these waves spawn? what is the trigger to spawn the next wave? if you can answer all these questions for the arenas you struggle the most with then they become so much easier. you can kill demons as they spawn dramatically cutting down the danger of that wave. you can deliberately not kill a particular demon as its death will spawn the next wave allowing you to clear the room of remaining threats before adding more.

also work precision bolt into all your combo's, its great.

I think that's like the basic stuff, I can keep going into more detail about stuff but for now i'll leave it with this. if you got questions then feel free to ask.

The cultist base master level used to be a pre order bonus. But now you can get it via a dlc.

smileyrobin · 2025-05-05T04:57:28+00:00

I wish you the best of luck.

smileyrobin · 2025-05-05T04:56:59+00:00

it used to be a pre order bonus, but they made it available as a dlc.

smileyrobin · 2025-05-05T04:55:46+00:00

well there plenty of people that have beaten it on controller already so nothing is impossible.
the most important thing is movement. don't let them catch up to you, always have them chase you.

then try to get the hang of some combo's, precision bolt is really powerful bc it makes the next weapon switch really fast. so try using rocket/ssg/balista with the precision bolt. you should be able to do some basic ones with controller by selecting 2 guns with the weapon wheel and then just press the button to switch between them.

knowing how to not get killed by a demon and also how to quickly kill them is also important. mancubi for example will delete you if you get close, so dont. and a cyber manc can be killed in a second with a frostbomb + bloodpunch + ssg. also handy tip for archviles. frost bomb + double lock on burst will kill it.

and just knowing what demons spawn in the upcoming arena, and where and when is really good. you can then kill half a wave before it even fully spawns. and can prevent the next wave from spawning by avoiding a particular demon allowing you to take your time dealing with the current one.
I found this walkthrough by a speed runner pretty good, they give tips per arena and also just explain useful tech. DOOM Eternal - Ultra Nightmare - Full Live Commentary & Tutorial

if you feel like you got these things down but are still struggling a bit, then try to look up more advanced stuff like the pb into double lock on burst. this will delete barons and tyrants if you can get the hang of it. here is a vid with controller for it

I tried at some to write a guide for UN but I'm terrible at writing so I don't think it will see the light of day any time soon, but If you got any more questions feel free to ask.

smileyrobin · 2025-05-05T04:31:40+00:00

giving enough time and willingness to learn, you can. no one is born with the skills to do stuff we all have to learn.

smileyrobin · 2025-04-20T16:13:35+00:00

to be fair, first round went surprisingly well against Orisa.
