As a Technician, you can scavenge a single modpack from a weapon by attemping to drop it. It destroys the weapon in the process.

Regarding the Nightmare Archvile, while it's led to some cheap deaths, I've actually gotten pretty good at dodging its attacks. I would say that I wish its flame pillar actually boosted you upward like a normal Archvile attack, if only because I like to play mapsets with this mod and some use Archvile jumps as a requirement to proceed or access secrets. But that's hardly unique to the NM Archvile. I do agree that maybe its damage should ramp up or that the attack should deal damage less frequently. I've actually seen NM Archviles bring down a lot of Cyberdemon-level bosses, what with their fire immunity and ability to dish out huge amounts of damage in bursts.

Also, a secondary attack might not be a bad idea. Demolitionist with Reactive Shield laughs at your puny Nightmare Archviles. Or anyone with a certain armor set that provides total immunity to its attacks... can't have them getting too comfortable, given that Hellmines also have a specific secondary attack for this.

I'm actually not sure what is going on with this enemy because it looks like it's supposed to do 3 damage sources per tic: two 2-damage projectiles somewhat randomly in the core, and the blast damage (5 in 32 radius), however that should give Demolitionist a bit more leeway to stand still in it that he doesn't have since he dies almost instantly like others. However at full sprint he takes almost nothing, while others get significantly hurt. As it stands I think the enemy is designed fine, provided the enemy itself is not being used stupidly in a given mapset (hi Plutonia). Just also be aware that the blast damage has no damage falloff. If you're in range without blast resists, you're taking the full brunt of it.

Not like the way you're hoping, no. There is officially only the Technician special which destroys the weapon and only retrieves one of the modpacks randomly. However there is still the glitch with the FIREBLU sphere where any weapons discarded while under its effect forget what modpacks (and demonic artifacts) they had applied.

it's also worth mentioning that any amount of fire resistance significantly decreases the threat level of the NM Archie's attack: even something like the Commando armor has a huge noticeable effect on the amount of damage you take from it, provided you've outrun the attack (if there are no pillars to duck away from the attack, a well-timed sprinting jump is the best way to get away from it). standing in the center of the attack would still be very lethal, but when you've dodged the attack, the damage you take from the attack emerging is pretty small (smaller than a regular Archie's attack), the radius damage the attack emits does no damage to you (unless you go straight into the attack), and it doesn't even damage your armor, making the NM Archie a sitting duck for as long as the attack is active.

If anyone is interested I have a full Ultimate Doom through Final Doom playthrough of RLA, Legendoom, and zetashop on Fast Monsters and Adaptive difficulty. I also use some other immersion adding mods that don't take away from the RLA
experience.



Any and all criticism and advice appreciated. No mic commentary for the time being. :)

I don't believe current versions of RLA are made to be fully compatible with DRPG anymore, but I'm sure if you join their discord and ask around, someone will be able to point you to a patch so DRPG,can work alongside RLA.

Alternatively, you could try viewing this forum and see if it can help. viewtopic.php?f=43&t=70328

Go options > DRLA options > Arsenal Options > Scroll down to HUD options and select Switch Full screen HUD style. Then you have to exit the menu before the changes take effect.
If you still can't see it, try adjusting your hud size using the + and - keys.

I've mentioned this before, but I definitely think something is bugged that prevents the Mortar and BFG Spider Mastermind variants from spawning. I did some testing and figured out that this bug only seems to happen if you're on Adaptive difficulty.

To test this, I created a map that has 100 Spider Masterminds. I tested it on Standard, Adaptive with 0 Danger Level, Adaptive with 5 Danger Level, and Adaptive with 30 Danger Level.

On Standard, I got a couple of Mortar and BFG Masterminds. On all of the Adaptive tests, regardless of DL, I didn't get a single one. I tested this multiple times and would be happy to upload the quick and dirty test map I used.

Holy shit I didn't know this was a thing either! :shock: I just thought it was a header for the one statusbar scroller option like an idiot. I guess I find out something new about this mod all the time!

Help!))
I was playing GZDoom 4.6.0 on Ubuntu with a mod and I found two "Bulk modpack?" and found that if I have one in my inventory, I cannot pick up the second, but the number of modpacks increases. I threw away all my modpacks, and having only "bulk modpack?", step on the second, and now the number shows 8 and I can't pick up modpacks anymore. :shock:

The Artipack is meant to apply 4 random mods to a weapon but it's buggy, mainly in that it subtracts from the modpack count incorrectly and if you happen to roll an assembly it doesn't work (Fluid Assembly System may be an exception), and possibly other things. It's not meant to appear anymore but it still shows up with LegenDoom Lite from some of the mid-tier legendaries, and it's amazing if you're playing the Mechanoid class from that add-on.

The Soulstorm rifle PDA description seems to be outdated. What does the 3rd artifact upgrade actually do? now that it no longer fires 6 projectiles. Just straight damage increase?

And Firestorm mod description still says 'has a chance to fire laser for 6 seconds' despite the changelog.
