I feel like all these Legacy of Rust demos has gotten YTs attention and recommended me a channel that does causal UV Max runs. Not necessarily speedruns but the Youtube Channel "TompPrime" uploaded a Map 7 UV Max run with great routing. I saw the route, modified it a bit to save extra time, and decided to run the map myself. 

Got extremely lucky with the infighting. The Mindweaver at the end surprisingly died to the imps and some of 3 Shocktroopers guarding the Megaarmor died to some stray Cyber rockets. Normally I shoot rockets from afar to deal with the 3 Shocktroopers but the Cyber did it for me. Also normally take out the Mindweaver with the Calamity Blade, but I didn't need to.

Biggest let down was not humiliating the Cyberdemon. With the Calamity Blade you can "One-Shot" the Cybernetic bastard with 3-2 charges. 3 charges to guarantee the kill, 2 charges to be stylish, which means its easier with 3 charges compared to 2 charges. 4-5 charges is overkill. 

You need to aim at the centre of the Cyberdemon and get close to maximize the Ripper Projectiles. Similar to the BFG Tracers. I messed up in that by the time I fired, the Cyberdemon moved away from the centre of my aiming, still causing most projectiles to hit, but not all. Following up with a single charge at a distance usually finishes the job, which I did.

The exit itself is like E1M8 where it's a damaging floor and ends the map at 11%. Except I'm stupid and wasted my rockets while I was invulnerable. In my defense I was in autopilot and just not thinking since it was the end of the map. I tried to switch to the Incinerator to deal that self damage faster.
