  • Why am I so stubborn?

    Jump

  • LOL, that's a good one :-)

    I love (in a weird way) how unforgiving SPD can be. I've died more times due to my own mistakes than to the game beating me.

    Recently I was trying to win the game with five challenges. I was having a great run, near the end of the caves, going swimmingly. Having "on diet" on, I was at about 20% HP. I found a wand of corrosion, and I said, it's quite unlikely to be cursed, I'm just gonna zap that DM-200 over there.

    Needless to say, the wand was cursed, it created some sort of huge lightning bolt, I was dead and my great run was over. All because I was unwilling to wait to verify the wand was not cursed.

  • In my experience, going to the next floor for a while and then returning often results in a couple of enemies having already spawned.

  • My highest score: five-challenge ascension!

  • That's what I thought -- thanks!

  • Interesting; I hadn't thought about using a scroll of enchantment. Is it better than converting the scroll to two stones of enchantment? You then have two shots at getting a good one.

  • Thanks! It's interesting to think this could have been a seven challenge run 😅

    My four-challenge runs have actually been with barren land. The problem for me is when it's combined with other challenges -- it becomes too difficult. If I ever try a six-chal run, I think I would add barren land to the mix.

    Regarding into darkness: I've tried several times and I've never made it past the crabs. But, as always with SPD, it's a matter of finessing your technique to the point where you can overcome the challenges.

  • Sharing my Wands and Darts tier list~

    Jump

  • When I get a WoB, I like to upgrade it to +3 (ideally using arcane resin). At +3, enemies get pushed back an amazing distance; if there is a wall behind them, the damage can be significant. Not to mention having five charges, which is usually enough.

  • How you make repeat play throughs interesting?

    Jump

  • I enjoy setting equipment limits. For example, I almost never get an Ankh any more. I had a blast with my tier-1, tier-2 and tier-3 runs. These are challenging in a different way than the "official" game challenges, but of course they can be combined for additional fun.

  • Why max your staff to 15 when you can max it to 17?

    Jump

  • Reforge the +3 wand with any of the other two to get a +4 wand, and then reforge the +4 with the remaining wand.

  • Why max your staff to 15 when you can max it to 17?

    Jump

  • It's actually possible to get a +21 staff -- but it requires a lot of luck. Get a wand +3, plus two other wands of the same type. At the troll smith, upgrade the staff to +1 and reforge the wands to get a +5 wand. Dump all upgrades on the wand to get a +20 wand. Imbue the wand to get a +21 staff.

  • Preferred Control Scheme for Desktop?

    Jump

  • I play on desktop exclusively, and I seldom use the mouse to move. To move diagonally, I always just press two arrow keys simultaneously. Once in a long while this fails and I end up losing a turn or triggering a trap or something. I have tried playing with the numpad or mapping other keys to diagonal movement, but by now using the arrow keys is deeply ingrained in my neurons.

  • Bug, or intended behavior?

    Jump

  • Whoa, I didn't know you could do that to force the scroll holder to spawn! Thanks for the tips!

  • Bug, or intended behavior?

    Jump

  • Thanks for your reply! I understand it's difficult to say what might have happened without more information. I did drop the scrolls right before I openend the door to the second phase (I was still in the hallway).

  • Bug, or intended behavior?

    Jump

  • I usually drop them in the small room with the stairs, which also works.

  • Blessed succubus healing itself?

    Jump

  • Thanks for the advice, will keep it in mind! I've been playing with the hostile champions challenge (among others) for a while now, so I'm sure I'll have to face this combo again.

  • Blessed succubus healing itself?

    Jump

  • Thanks!

  • Blessed succubus healing itself?

    Jump

  • Huh, I had never noticed! I hope I never find another one of those :-)

  • Monk can't dash through cave spinner web

    Jump

  • Throwing a weapon or armor into the web creates a "hole" in it through which the hero, wands and missile weapons can go through.

  • seeds are unusable with challenges

    They are less useful, but you can still convert them to potions. If you get a set of three of the same, you can even guarantee which potion you get, as well as identify it.

  • God, please save me from this monster

  • Thankfully, golems are easy to avoid! I wouldn't want to face that beast.
