The Android daily was no fun at all. Goatperson in The Labyrinth. Half of the popcorn was hidden behind The Tormented One, and most of the lvl 8-9 monsters blocked the path to GG, with the other altars being MA and Taurog. No wallbreaking glyphs were available, but WEYTWUT spawned.

R.I.P. ol' Goaty.

Thanks to spoilers, I am currently top for XP and Piety, :) Well, fall_ark, the "Binlor Expert" hasn't played when I last checked, so I can't say I will hold the top positions for certain.

Just to add on, Thief has 1 extra glyph so Wonafyt is also in the default bunch.

Prepped both Martyr Wraps and Platemail (figured Platemail would help save health for putting in corrosion, and it did help). So, just level 1 Binlor worship, get Knockback, Might, and then spam a few more boons to get more Magic Resists which help with 2 of the bosses. Convert to GG with 100 piety at level 1 and pretty much wreak havoc for the rest of the map. Use Imawal to gain bonus XP for boss kills and high level mobs. To push for higher XP, you can keep Wonafyt for the "non-golem" mobs (though spamming Binlor's boons can remove quite a bit of their resists). I didn't keep Wonafyt due to inventory space, but I did trade Imawal for Learning Level 1 when mopping up when there was no point in using Imawal (stoning a slowed L1 to get 3 more XP from a L6 is not needed when I can get 3 XP from it with Level 1 Learning).

Also, you can trade off the Halpmeh for 2 Health Potions in the end, that's 10 piety instead of 5 with GG, but you will lose out the base damage bonus (though I think Halpmeh is pretty useful all the way to the end so you will likely not convert it off at the start just for the bonus damage).

Rat Monarch in Northern Desert
So many good options today, both in terms of preparations and in terms of what's available in dungeon. I got a nice and easy power-level off of a few high-level bandits, built up my base stats with JJ, then proceeded to tag the bosses with corrosion and spam them with fireballs with my charged up crystal ball. Platemail was another option (I had inventory space issues due to JJ prep and never had the chance to pick it up) with the quest item pool that suits the rat nicely. Total buy-out of the shop pool should be possible thanks to the gloves of midas prep and the gold secret subdungeon, but I didn't even need to go there.

I'm really thankful that CYDSTEPP was in the glyph pool today, since DP saved me from a misclick death. I probably would have been a bit more careful without that layer of DP, but still...

That was quite an enjoyable Rat Monarch run.

I anticipate some insane XP scores today.

@Tinker I was kind of hoping for your level 1 shenanigans when I posted spoilers. I was not dissapointed. :D Too bad I forgot to mention the glyph locations. :(

I need practice for this (L1 double boss kills), lol, :P

Couldn't do it, couldn't get Goo's HP low enough, maybe I should have put my hits on the fatter boss instead (Goo) since double knockback damage for it would work out to roughly enough damage to bring Aequita's HP low enough for the fireball.
Not sure about this, maybe it would be harder to pull off? (Since Goo needs more hits)

Have to settle for a low third position for XP. Managed to edge out the top position for piety, lol, :)

[Oh, I wasn't even paying attention to Tinker's spoilers - already mentioned to hit Goo rather than Aequitas. Yeah, stupid me, :)]

Gnome Monk, Rock Garden
Decided to play it safe and forgo the guitar for a shield. It was smooth sailing, so a guitar shouldn't be too much trouble.

Today I made lots of mistakes: like hitting enemy while planning to use guitar before killing but forgetting to use it and also hitting same level enemy while planning to use guitar before killing but forgetting that I had already used it before and the "best" one was that I converted PISSORF to get room for fireball and then realized that I still had the Magic Resistant boss left.

Despite the numerous mistakes it was easy run.

That was crazy! :)

1) Join Binlor to de-clog map.
2) Not know when to stop, and reveal whole map and consume every single wall, before having started any leveling.
3) Fish enough ground sparkles to be able to join Dracul.
4) Desecrate Earthmother, kill all plants, buy (and drink) the Burn Salve.
5) Keep taking Blood Tithe just for the +Damage (and pick up the 4 spoons the plants dropped).
5) Wreak havoc with maxed resists and 20 Mana Pool and 10+ mana potions and PISORF and lots of bonus damage (for a monk).

Come to think of it, there were a lot of Goo Blobs, Wraiths and Dragonspawn, so a normal Monk would've had some difficulty today. Luckily, none of that matters for a Gnome with capped Magic Resist... ;)

I only regret converting the Guitar, having forgotten that the golems that keep spawning are ideal targets for it (which is not very smart considering that the spawning golems were the very reason I brought it along... :lol:).

Fun facts of the day:
1. Golems keep spawning even when there are no walls left (they just spawn on any unoccupied tile then).
2. No Golem spawns past L9.
3. Correct order to get both bonuses from the sub is: i) kill goblin, ii) talk to head mage to get wand, iii) fire off Wand of Splosion.
