Finally have a fun I can submit! You can honestly hear the excitement in my voice when I killed HotK. This isn't only because I knew it was a successful run but also because it was my first official HotK kill, I even got the achievement for it ?

My Strategies: Honestly a lot of these are similar to sknot's strategies, though I am pretty sure we both came up with them on our own (they are just really obvious to go for). -Most importantly, getting the Assault Shield as soon as possible -Hope and prey to RNGesus that good loot drops in a timely manor -Take all of the timed doors -Skip the Assassin (even though I failed it was still an intended strat) -Try and get a Firebrand and Sinew Slicer as well as Bear Traps. -For Mutations grab (in this order) Ygdar Orus Li Ox, Efficiency, Dead Inside

If you can get +damage on Burning with your gadgets (or if you are REALLY lucky and get a gold Firebrand with +damage on Burning) you are in a place to deal an absolute buttload of damage.
