However, as you say, the subdungeon gives you a massive amount of resources. Plus, it's supposed to be a challenge! If Curious Vicious can be so brutal that no one has yet beaten quite a few of them then why not make Scrooge difficult as well?

Imagine if the bosses there also were affected by the dungeon's gimmicks - LT has all of them revive, for instance...

Excellent point. The quest would then no longer give you scrooge in VHoS for completing it, but it already seems to do that inconsistently so it shouldn't be hard to make sure it doesn't. By the way, where has your new file reached General_Milky?

Took a tiny break, but I'm hovering around the "do silver challenges and content-unlocking quests" phase. Shouldn't be too long to get into EE north.

My plan for my next few runs is to try out all of my new items and classes, then tackle Magician and Bard Gold, and then probably get started on the Triple Quest or maybe finish the puzzles.

Cleared Echoes of Power!

This one took me 2 tries - I almost cleared my scouting run, but I made the mistake of going full Taurog and converting BURNDAYRAZ, which obviously made everything after the third form (which I killed with reflexes) impossible. I did end up with 250 damage in that run, so it was pretty sad that I wasn't able to win.
By the way, is it intended that converting Taurog's gears makes him punish the Heretic? I don't think he punishes a Paladin for that.

OK... I just got a crash.

I was in Curious Naga City. I hit Getanadafix, then tried to kill a plant, and this happened:

It seems the game doesn't know how to handle Rex's stalking the player when you kill plants.

Interestingly, when I hit "report" I was able to continue playing, but every time I killed a plant the same crash report popped up again... also Rex, though his sprite was still on the screen, was intangible. I could stand in his space and couldn't interact with him at all. This rendered the dungeon unwinnable, though I probably wouldn't have won anyway.

Whoops, I somehow forgot Fido is bugged. Go ahead and disregard that feedback then, I'll clear it again legitimately.

250 damage is pretty massive, though. It was pretty funny to effortlessly one-shot bosses.

I just tested and Paladin doesn't get punished for converting Taurog's gears.

I cleared The Peak of Fitness with a goblin Crusader, a prepped platemail, shield and EM. Getting to 34 DR was easy and the boss went down By the way, attacking an enemy without frost that cant get through your armor does not deal the frost damage but the stacks are gone... This feels like a bug.

Now to Frigid Battlefield, which looks horrible...
