This is the last of the main class golds I have to do, and holy moley is it a doozy. This challenge feels stacked against the player in a way that just doesn't compare to the rest. No shops, no preps, one really lackluster god (Jehora), and some truly awful mob spawns. The only things you can fight are the meat men and the random spawn, and you can't even fight the meat men once they're poisonous without HALPMEH. I feel this challenge is really far above the curve, even for gold. Does anyone else agree? Can anyone out there beat this challenge reliably?
EDIT: Of course, the instant I gripe about the challenge on the forums I go and beat the thing. Taurog > EM with HALPMEH and APHEELSIK. This is, of course, one BYSEPPS away from a perfect draw though, and my monster set was pretty good. I still feel the challenge is way too reliant on luck, and that something needs to give for this run to be something that can be completed with any kind of consistency. Just my 2c.
