Just popped in to take a look.

Could have topped 289 which was just 14 more from 275 (prestige level 1). I didn't even think of using Entanglement, could have made the kills with EM (convert to her first) just to get the 1 bonus XP per slowed monster, I must have killed at least 20+ monsters - was only level 7 close to 8 (I remember requiring between 5 to 10 XP to hit 8, and then another 85 to hit 10).

There's so much leeway in terms of piety to easily get 100 with EM, then to switch back to JJ for CA. Like how I would like to say, it was not fated for me to do so today,

Oh man, this game. I thought I was totally hosed by level 3. I have to argue the wording used in the game for the cost of taking MA's improved fireball boon. It says incur a reduction to your attack bonus. Well, I didn't have any attack bonus and figure that's cool. So I took it twice.

It should read, "incur an attack penalty" as I still lost the 50% from my base. So I quickly had a -75% on all my attacks, which at level 5 left me with a whopping 3 points of damage.

Somehow I managed to kill the first boss form at level 5 and figured I was done. Then things got weird. I improved my already improved healing rate with a sigil and used Blud2powa to chip away at boss 2. I was running out of black space but then found Glenrick and got a free level and kept blasting. Switched to JJ and after a bit got chaos avatar which rejuiced me and I managed to kill the second form.

At this point black space was pretty much gone and I thought to myself, nice try...and then I got silly. I noticed I could switch gods again if I desecrated MA, so I did and got on the EM bandwagon. Created some plants and Clearance to get mana and plasted boss 3 form....but not enough. I hadn't killed much so there weren't many blood pools and I had eaten some from getting the blood heal in the dungeon...argh.

Long story short, I grabbed whatever boons I could to make more plants and used Clearance again.

I finally killed the final form with a punch when I got him down to minimal hit points left. That was at level 7.

It just underscores the "never quit" rule that this game has taught me in spades.

@Zazzlegut:

That was an epic comeback,

EM is your best friend for last minute mana spiking. Learn to use the gods well, and they will smile back on you.

Just think how much further all of those gymnastics would've gone if you hadn't almost thrown the game at level 3... X-D

That's how you have to beat vicious dungeons. You just have to skip the part where you almost throw at level 3.

Bear mace and balanced dagger preps made this a fairly easy rat run. I took the slayer wand to take out the bridge troll, but I found out that only makes it angrier (and adds 5 levels). So yeah, don't do what I did unless you want to fight a level 10 troll.

Yuck, those Tokolshe charms aren't going to do much...
