Comments: Submission for The Doomed Index. This level really frustrated me, I spent way more attempts than I would like to admit, and it was mainly from the first 5 minutes of the level. I did not have a real concrete strategy for what order I should so the rooms until after 100+ attempts. Specifically not entering the first cyberdemon infight arena until I picked up the soulsphere from the imp swarm so I would have an extra one to rely on as it felt like that fight could go wrong quick. After numerous attempts of dying within the first five minutes of the level I finally became more consistent with the beginning and no longer hated it. I still do not like the first 5 minutes though. I actually think the hardest fight is the archvile swarm that happens in the tiny room with pillars. I could not imagine a consistent strategy to get through the fight without getting the rocket launcher first. The final fight would probably be the hardest fight without the yellow key.
