 Although three bosses may appear daunting, in practice you will get a large amount of XP and gold after each one you defeat. Because the bosses are individually quite weak, this is actually one of the easiest of the hard-difficulty levels. The trick is gaining momentum and being versatile enough to take on bosses with vastly different strengths and weaknesses.

-Every naturally spawned plant in the Rock Garden has a chance to drop a {{i|spoon}} when destroyed. This small item grants +1 base damage. Individually spoons are quite weak, but you can acquire up to fifteen spoons in this manner for a whopping +15 base damage. Although this will occupy three inventory slots, for a melee-oriented class this is well worthwhile.

 Plants created by {{g|The Earthmother}} do not drop spoons. Similarly plants removed by {{boon|Clearance}} will not leave spoons behind, even if they would have otherwise. Combined with the fact that she will block off many passages with her plants, this typically makes the Earthmother a poor deity choice for the {{d|Rock Garden}}. Similarly, these spoons are incredibly powerful benefits to melee-type characters and will quickly fill your inventory. This means there will be little space for other items. As a result, {{g|Taurog}} is ''also'' a poor deity choice.

 Because of the downsides of the Really Big Sword, you must make a strong effort to fight higher-level monsters. The sword causes all monsters to always get first strike against you, so weaker monsters (especially if you're poisoned) can quickly whittle you down. However, since higher-level monsters get first strike anyways, the sword is of no consequence so long as you focus on fighting those enemies. Once you have defeated the physical resist boss, you can convert the really big sword to get rid of the penalty.
-Another approach to defeating the physical resist boss is by worshipping the {{g|Glowing Guardian}}.  His cleansing boon allows your next attack to deal magic damage, which will bypass those resistances.  You can also use {{g|Binlor Ironshield}} and his stone heart boon to reduce the resistances of all revealed monsters.  However, this has an important catch: you must reveal the boss as early as possible for it to be effective.

 Recommended classes for this approach are the Paladin, Warlord, Thief, and Assassin. Because of all the spoons that are present on this level, the Orc is generally not as favourable as the human. The extra attack booster preparation is strongly advised, even for humans. Because your base attack will be so high from all the spoons you collect, raising your attack bonus is far more beneficial than it usually is.
