Unmakyr: The Ultimate Weapon Guide#

Alright, Slayer, ready to unlock one of the coolest guns in Doom Eternal? Say hello to the Unmakyr, a powerful weapon that’s seriously worth the effort to obtain. This isn’t your run-of-the-mill shooter; it gets the job done in style. Let’s dive in and break down how you can grab this beast of a weapon.

What is the Unmakyr?#

The Unmakyr is an ancient Martian weapon and it’s as deadly as it sounds. It’s a rapid-firing behemoth that shoots celestial projectiles. This bad boy is especially handy for melting down bosses or quickly clearing out hordes of enemies. It’s got a distinct sci-fi feel, making it feel like you’re truly wielding ancient Martian technology.

How to Unlock the Unmakyr#

Unlocking the Unmakyr isn’t exactly a walk in the park, but if you’re a true Slayer, you’ll relish the challenge.

1. Conquer the Slayer Gates: There are six Slayer Gates scattered throughout the levels of Doom Eternal. These gates are essentially challenges that will test your combat skills to the limit. Each gate is locked until you find a Slayer Key within that level. Make sure to be on the lookout for these keys, as they’re usually hidden in tough-to-reach places.

2. Earn Empyrean Keys: Completing each Slayer Gate rewards you with an Empyrean Key. Collect all six Empyrean Keys to unlock access to the Unmakyr.

3. Access the Fortress of Doom: Head back to your base, the Fortress of Doom. Here, you’ll find a special room locked behind six slots – this is where you’ll use your Empyrean Keys.

4. Unlock the Sealed Door: Place each Empyrean Key in its slot, and once all six are in, the door will open. Inside lies the Unmakyr, waiting for you to claim it.

Using the Unmakyr#

Now that you have the Unmakyr, you’ll want to make the most out of it. Here are some tips on when and how to use it:

• Timing is Key: The Unmakyr consumes the same ammo as the BFG-9000, so use it wisely. It’s great for tough crowds or bosses, but you don’t want to waste its powerful shots on lesser enemies.
• Crowd Control: In battles where you face multiple heavy demons, the Unmakyr can quickly turn the tide. Its rapid fire and high damage are perfect for mowing down enemies in seconds.
• Switch it Up: Don’t rely solely on the Unmakyr. Remember, ammo is limited, so switch between it and other weapons to conserve your resources. Keep your combat diverse to stay effective.

Final Thoughts#

Unlocking the Unmakyr is no small feat, but it’s totally worth it. Not only does it give you a powerful new weapon, but it also offers a satisfying challenge along the way. Good luck, Slayer, and go make the demons fear your might!

Remember, the path to unlocking the Unmakyr is fraught with danger, but with perseverance, you’ll wield one of the most powerful weapons in the game. Now get out there and show Hell who’s boss!

Unlocking the Iconoclast Achievement in Doom Eternal#

Introduction#

Facing off with the Icon of Sin in Doom Eternal is like stepping into the ring with a colossus that’s out to smash you into oblivion. This guide will help you navigate through this intense battle and snag that sweet “Iconoclast” achievement. Buckle up, Slayer, it’s going to be a bumpy ride!

Finding the Icon of Sin#

Before you can take on the Icon of Sin, you’ll need to reach the very end of the game. This beast of a boss awaits you in the final mission called “Final Sin.” Make sure you’re well-equipped with a fully stocked arsenal and plenty of health and armor pickups, because this guy doesn’t mess around.

Preparing for the Battle#

Weapons#

Bring your best weapons to the fight. The Super Shotgun, Ballista, and the BFG-9000 will be your best friends here. The Super Shotgun is great for close quarters when the Icon gets too cozy. The Ballista is your go-to for hitting weak points, and the BFG-9000 can clear out the pesky smaller demons that flood the battlefield.

Runes and Upgrades#

Make sure you’ve got the perfect combination of runes and upgrades. We recommend the following:

1. Dazing Confusion: Prolongs stunned enemies.
2. Saving Throw: Gives you one last chance if you’re about to die.
3. Air Control: Provides greater mobility in the air.

The Battle#

The Icon of Sin has multiple stages, each requiring different strategies. Here’s a breakdown:

Stage 1: Breaking Armor#

The Icon is covered in heavy armor that you need to destroy before dealing any real damage. Focus on the weak points:

1. Arms: Use the Ballista and target the arms to whittle down the armor.
2. Chest: Keep firing at the chest with your Super Shotgun.
3. Head: Use precision shots with the Ballista or Sniper to crack the helmet.

Keep moving to avoid the ground attacks and make use of the jump pads to stay mobile. Remember, the BFG-9000 can clear smaller enemies but won’t damage the Icon directly in this phase.

Stage 2: Exposed and Vulnerable#

Once the armor is off, the Icon of Sin becomes more aggressive:

1. Destroy Limbs: Target the areas where the armor was removed. Focus on one limb at a time – coordinating your attacks can help you keep track of target points.
2. Use Jump Pads: The Icon floods the ground with dangerous attacks, so staying airborne is crucial. Jump pads will become your lifeline.

Again, use the BFG-9000 sparingly to manage the horde of demons. You’ve got to stay focused on the Icon without being overwhelmed.

Tips and Tricks#

• Keep Moving: Standing still is a death sentence. Constant movement makes you a harder target.
• Resource Management: Use Chainsaw kills to replenish ammo and Glory Kills for health. Manage your resources carefully to ensure you have enough for the entire fight.
• Stay Calm: The battle can get chaotic with explosions and demons everywhere, but stay focused on your main target – the Icon of Sin.

Conclusion#

Defeating the Icon of Sin and earning the Iconoclast achievement is no small feat. With the right preparation, weaponry, and strategy, you can bring this behemoth down and claim your reward. So get out there, Slayer – the fate of humanity rests on your shoulders!

Finish the fight and bask in the glory of victory. You’ve earned it!

Extra Life Mode#

So, you’ve been tearing through demons and ripping and tearing in Doom Eternal, but now you’re looking to take the challenge to the next level. Enter Extra Life Mode, a new way to play the game that will test all your skills. Here’s everything you need to know to survive and thrive.

What is Extra Life Mode?#

Extra Life Mode is like the ultimate gauntlet. Instead of just dying and restarting from checkpoints like in normal play, this mode gives you a limited number of extra lives. Once you run out, it’s game over. This mode is for those who want an extra thrill and a tougher challenge.

How to Unlock Extra Life Mode#

Unlocking Extra Life Mode is pretty straightforward. Right from the main menu, head over to the Campaign section. You’ll see an option for Extra Life Mode. Select it, and you’re on your way.

Gathering Extra Lives#

In Extra Life Mode, collecting extra lives becomes crucial. Here are some tips on how to stock up:

• Explore Thoroughly: Extra lives are scattered throughout the levels, often in secret or hard-to-reach locations. Make sure to check every nook and cranny.

• Use the Automap: The automap highlights the location of extra lives with a special icon. Regularly check your map to make sure you’re not missing any.

• Complete Slayer Gates: These optional combat challenges are tough but rewarding. Successfully completing a Slayer Gate can net you one or more extra lives.

Smart Survival Strategies#

Since your extra lives are limited, you need to adopt some smart strategies to stay in the game longer:

• Target Weak Points: Certain demons have weak points that can cripple their attacks. Learn these weaknesses and exploit them. For example, shooting off the cannons of an Arachnotron makes it less deadly.

• Manage Resources: Resources like health, armor, and ammo are precious. Use your Chainsaw wisely to harvest ammo from smaller demons and utilize Glory Kills to restore health.

• Stay Mobile: Standing still is a death sentence in Doom Eternal. Always be on the move, strafing and jumping to avoid enemy attacks. Use the dash ability to dodge and reposition strategically.

Challenges and Rewards#

Playing on Extra Life Mode doesn’t just change the game’s mechanics but also comes with special challenges and rewards:

• Milestones and Achievements: Completing the game in this mode unlocks special milestones and achievements. These are great for bragging rights and show you’re among the best players out there.

• Extra Life Mode-Exclusive Skins: Finish the game in Extra Life Mode to earn exclusive skins for the Doom Slayer. They’re a cool way to show off your skills in multiplayer.

Final Tips#

• Practice Makes Perfect: Don’t jump into Extra Life Mode right away. Spend time perfecting your techniques in the regular campaign mode first.

• Stay Calm: It’s easy to get flustered when you’re low on lives. Keep a cool head, make calculated moves, and you’ll go far.

• Save for Tough Battles: Conserve your extra lives for the really tough fights—boss battles and Slayer Gates are prime examples.

And there you have it! That’s everything you need to not just survive but dominate in Extra Life Mode. Gear up, dive in, and may your extra lives be plentiful!

Master of Fasting#

Alright, Slayer. Getting the “Master of Fasting” achievement in Doom Eternal isn’t a walk in the park. You’re gonna need patience, precision, and a detailed plan to pull this off. But don’t worry, we’ve got your back. Let’s dive in!

What Is “Master of Fasting”?#

”Master of Fasting” is a challenge that requires you to complete the “Slayer Body Disposal Protocol” mission without eating any Health Packs, Armor Shards, or Extra Lives. This means you’ll need to be extra careful and strategic in your combat approach. It’s less about being a brute and more about being a smart brute.

Prep Work#

Before you even start the mission, make sure you’re prepared:

• Max Out Crucible Charges: Use those deadly charges when things get overwhelming. They’re a life-saver, literally.
• Unlock Critical Runes: Invest in runes like “Seek and Destroy” for longer Glory Kill reach and “Saving Throw” for an extra life-saving chance.
• Weapon Mods: Look for mods that increase your damage output, like the Precision Bolt for the Heavy Cannon or the Lock-On Burst for the Rocket Launcher.

The Plan#

Early Game#

1. Stick to Glory Kills: Enemies flash highlighting when they’re ready for a Glory Kill. Use that to gain health WITHOUT picking up health packs. Remember that flashing means your health will be replenished a bit after the kill.
2. Chainsaw for Ammo: Regularly use the Chainsaw to refill your ammo. It’s an instant kill on most enemies, and you gain everything you need without picking up items.

Mid Game#

1. Environment Awareness: Memorize the locations that have health and armor drops. Stay away from them to avoid accidental pickups, but remember these spots so you can dodge around them in battle.
2. Use Weaknesses: Every enemy has a weakness. Utilize these to take them down quickly. Use Ballista on Cacodemons or the Plasma Rifle to overload shielded enemies.

Late Game#

1. Demons in Order: Prioritize enemies based on threat level. The big guys—Mancubuses, Hell Knights, and Barons—need to go down first with your big guns. Save weaker enemies for Glory Kills and ammo replenishment.
2. Stay Moving: Keep jumping and running. Staying mobile helps you avoid incoming attacks and accidentally picking up health packs.

Tips and Tricks#

• Use the Environment: Exploding barrels, electric walls, and other environmental hazards can help you dish out damage without using your resources.
• Sentry Turrets: Use the Rocket Launcher’s lock-on burst to quickly disable them.
• Demons vs. Demons: If you find a Crucible Charge, use it to take out bigger demons. This keeps them from overwhelming you, and you stay within the challenge’s restrictions.

How to Handle Boss Fights#

• Bosses Have Patterns: Study and use boss attack patterns to your advantage. Doding and time your attacks. It’s better to be cautious than to rush in and take damage.
• Minion Waves: Bosses often spawn smaller enemies. Use these minions for Glory Kills to stay alive, just don’t rely on health packs.

Achievement Unlocked#

Completing this challenge proves you’ve mastered the art of efficient demon slaying. It’s a testament to your skill and patience. Wear that “Master of Fasting” achievement as a badge of honor, Slayer. You have earned it! Now go out there and rip and tear until it is done.

Hopefully, that helps you grab this achievement without losing your sanity. Keep at it, and remember, practice makes perfect! Happy slaying!
