Took the Sword since I knew it would make getting higher level kills much easier plus it helps Pisorf (well, a little). After reading so many posts here about Tikki, I still got punished by him. Luckily, activating Zot and using Pisorf with Bludtopowa made it possible for me to totally avoid Weakness from hitting foes.
After the initial "scary" phase, it was just using Pisorf and Bludtopowa to mow down everything. Imawal with Entanglement with 2 shots of Learning (I got scared at the start after TT's punishment and immediately took Consensus when I found PactMaker) meant I could get top XP today (Yay!). Got 2nd for Piety, lost out to fall_ark, most probably he dumped the gold into TT piety (which I forgot to when I had the opportunity). I just bought and converted everything and absolutely used up all mana to farm EM piety (definitely less than what TT would give) - still had around 100-ish gold in the end.
This goat run felt "easier" than the previous Shifting Passages one - that was really scary for me (running out of food, with no suitable enemies except L+3 or above ones, getting locked in, etc.).
