Well, there's always CheatEngine if you just want to ramp up your kingdom gold a bit.

You should have seen some of those halfling JJ rogue strats back in the day. Alchemist scroll is a terrific item for any Taurog warmonger. 1 strength potion plus 4 mana potions is 15 gold and 40 hp. That's good in my book.
We made an expansion and it is awesome. Really, you should check it out, especially if you're looking for some extra challenge.

Hah, remember the old 1 HP Rogue of Dracul back in the days of Blood Power? Most of my original vicious wins were from that combo.

Those were the good old days. I loved CYDSTEPPing rogues. I believe my first Avatar and Namtar were both done through that abusive strategy.

Yeah, I've read about most of the strategies available, past and present. Actually I've been wondering how far one would get in this game if they never saw the wiki or this forum. There's a lot of advanced strategies I'm sure some people would never think of. I had noticed some things about regen fighting on my own, but not the depth of things like attack/fireball order making a difference.

Funny as it is, I completely missed the CYDSTEPP Rogue. I saw guys talking about it, tried it out, seemed to unsaivoury, went back to... Abusing Thieves and Monks :D No wonder most of Darvins deaths can be attributed to missclicks - that was the entirety of balancing related to CYDSTEPP Rogues :D

Sure, we let you play waaaaay abouve the curve, but - MANUAL DEXTERITY HAZARD! Bam! Ha! No soup for you!

Those sneaky devs. 8-)

EDIT: Seriously, that thing was a disaster waiting to happen, the number of times I died in dungeons decresed by a wide margin when I decided to convert CYDSTEPP on the spot (before they nerfed it). Or not even bother nlocking the Warlord. Its also the reason I rarely if ever use keyboard shortcuts - I make sure I click on a damned glyph before I attack. I still ocasionaly get killed by a random Gorgorn/Goblin though.
I almost got pwned by Shifty Brickwork!

Sorc, Berserker and Priest are the easiest. Paladin is also easily doable.

Yeah, I ended up with Berserker/Sorc/Priest - amusingly, both the last two got the subdungeon with Bear Mace in it. With the Bear Mace I brought along. There's a Yo Dawg in there somewhere. Needless to say, Indomitable did not approve of these tactics. I think I'll save Demonic Library for last. Got DING!, Cheeky, Specialist, Unstoppable, and Warmonger too. I might get Faithless some time but I don't think any of the others are going to happen. At least not any time soon. DI and NC left to go, and then I suppose Demonic Library. Would be cool if there was actually a quest to go there though. Maybe unlock Changeling or some kind of super class? Like one that's good at getting difficult badges, Hoarder in particular. Hmmmm...

Banker
VAULT: Treats all items as small items.
INTEREST: Earns 1 gold whenever picking up or using an item. +10% (possibly more) on trophies.
HAGGLER: Spawns 1 extra shop in dungeon, items cost 2 gold less.

That's more a badge-earner class than a "super" one. I'm sure all kinds of abilities could be dreamed up for a super class. But this one is geared towards late-gamer interests - makes Hoarder badge easier to earn, and earns little bits of extra money doing lots of things.
