The Metal Age is a special dungeon that serves as the Thief silver challenge.
Preparations
No preparations are allowed in this challenge.
Special Rules
The map contrains "trapped chests". These chests deal damage and always strike first, so you need to find a way to survive them. Each chest contains a different glyph:
(todo list)
The Boss
The boss is a level 9 Guard Captain (ATK 75/HP 480). It's identical to several other Level 9 guards around, so be careful.
Strategy
Get ready to do this level over, and over, and over. The basic strategy is:
- Get LEMMISI and WEYTWUT;
- Accumulate enough attack bonuses that you can kill two level 2 guards without using more than two or three potions;
- Carefully work your way up levels with the help of WEYTWUT and IMAWAL's experience bonuses;
- Deal with the Guard Captain.
LEMMISI is nearly useless, as you'll have to do a fair deal of exploring to acquire powerups initially. WEYTWUT, on the other hand, is precious.
