Unleashing Hell with the Unmakyr: Doom Eternal’s Ultimate Demon Shredder
You have ripped through many demonic legions in Doom Eternal. Feeling good, Slayer? Think you’ve seen it all? Think again. Hidden in the Fortress of Doom waits a powerful weapon. The Unmakyr makes the BFG look like a toy.
The name “Unmakyr” sounds like a fever dream by a metal theologian. This is not a grandpa’s shotgun. This weapon has immense power. It obliterates anything demonic that crosses your path. It’s the ultimate get-off-my-lawn tool for interdimensional invaders.
What Exactly IS the Unmakyr?
The Unmakyr is a demon-vaporizing machine gun. Picture an LMG mixed with a laser show. That’s close. In gameplay, it unleashes rapid-fire projectiles in a flat arc. It paints demons with pure death. Every trigger pull sends out three projectiles, ensuring total demonic coverage.
And the results? They are delightful. It doesn’t just chip health bars. The Unmakyr turns beefy baddies into chunky salsa in seconds. Mancubi become meaty confetti, Barons of Hell become bits, and Marauders rethink their life choices (if they had any). It’s brutal and efficient; it’s what you need when Hell throws a party on Earth.
Sharing is Caring (Ammo Edition): Unmakyr and BFG
The Unmakyr is so powerful, it shares ammo with the BFG. Yes, you read that right. The king and queen of demon destruction share the same ammo. This shows the Unmakyr’s destructive capability. It ranks with the BFG in raw power but focuses on control.
The BFG clears rooms with one glorious blast. The Unmakyr provides sustained annihilation. It dismantles threats with accuracy and firepower. The BFG is like a nuke. The Unmakyr is a tactical laser scalpel, but it fires bullets of hellfire.
The Quest for Power: Unlocking the Unmakyr
If you want this weapon, you’re not alone. But acquiring the Unmakyr isn’t easy. It’s not lying around in a cache. You must earn it through a side quest, a scavenger hunt.
The key to unlocking the Unmakyr lies in collecting Empyrean Keys. You get these keys by conquering Slayer Gates. These aren’t average doorways; they are extra-challenging combat encounters throughout various levels. Consider them arenas that test your Slayer skills to the limit.
Each Slayer Gate conquered rewards you with one precious Empyrean Key. To unlock the Unmakyr, you need all six keys. It’s a demonic obstacle course with the ultimate prize waiting at the finish line. Each Slayer Gate serves as a test in demonology, where the reward is a weapon that rewrites hellfire laws.
Where to Find Those Pesky Slayer Gates (and Keys)
So where do you start this Empyrean Key hunt? Slayer Gates and their keys hide within several levels in Doom Eternal. Keep your eyes peeled and senses sharp. Here’s a handy list to guide you on your Unmakyr journey:
- Exultia: The fiery start of your quest. Watch for secrets in this volcanic landscape.
- Cultist Base: Delve into demonic worship and find a Slayer Gate amidst unholy architecture.
- Super Gore Nest: As it suggests, things get messy here. Find the Slayer Gate amidst this gore-soaked level.
- Arc Complex: Navigate UAC’s horrors and uncover a Slayer Gate in metallic corridors.
- Mars Core: Explore the red planet and discover a Slayer Gate amidst Martian madness.
- Taras Nabad: Search the ancient city for the last Slayer Gate between you and the Unmakyr.
Once you’ve completed all six Slayer Gates and collected your keys, head back to your Fortress of Doom. You will find a capsule waiting for your Empyrean Keys. Use all six keys to unlock it, and behold! The Unmakyr is yours. It’s like Christmas but with a weapon of unimaginable destruction for demons.
Unleash the Unmakyr and Embrace the Carnage
Once you have the Unmakyr, prepare for new demonic devastation. This weapon changes the game. It lets you tackle formidable foes with unmatched confidence. Need to chew through a Tyrant easily? Use Unmakyr. Want to reduce a Cyberdemon to scrap metal? Use Unmakyr! Feel overwhelmed by Hell’s hordes? You know what to do.
The Unmakyr is not just a weapon; it’s a statement. It shows that you are more than a Slayer; you are the ultimate Slayer with the ultimate weapon. Collect those Empyrean Keys, unlock the Unmakyr, and show demons what happens when they mess with the Doom Slayer. They’ll learn a lesson before being reduced to red mist.
