Description:
The first UV-Max of this level, because the only other person to do this level ignored a cyberdemon even though they frequently fall down and are easily dealt with in such cases.

Lost two attempts at the final fight. The first one I took 6 mancubi fireballs in about 1-2 seconds trying to push through that did 336 damage before I got killed by a 7th hit. I could have taken between 48-384 damage from those 6 hits, so a bit unlucky with 336. I didn't feel bad about it, forgot to pick up some health vials anyways, not that they are necessary of course.. Then the second attempt which I did on the same day as this successful run some similar stuff happened, but I had enough health to grab the last megasphere. But max health doesn't really last long when you take a completely random cyberdemon rocket. I couldn't see the rocket past all the corpses so I didn't even notice it before it hit me. I guess after the luck I had an hour into map 15 I had to pay for it here.

Sunder map16 route is mostly done, the map is really long and a completed run should take somewhere around 2 hours, hopefully just under it. It's not looking as bad as I thought it would be, I think the last sections are easier than the final fight of map32, but on average it's more difficult and it's significantly longer. I've had ammo issues in practice so I'm afraid of running low near the end as well.

Comments about the run:
Went mostly as expected with exception of the final fight.

For the final fight I took a lot of damage again trying to get through the mancubi.

Then I nearly died when I had to push through the cacodemons, didn't have much choice as my ammo was running low and I didn't want to take damage going for cells on the left side.

Nearly died at the very end to a surprise cyberdemon, somehow I just didn't see him and I had to just go for it as I was afraid I'd get hit by something else or bump into a wall if I backtracked.
