Wizards are stupidly powerful. Constant spaming of Strength of Atlas is so good. I can't believe it stacks. The only pain in the whole game was getting into the thieves guild to get training for climbing for the library. Pre-library I did everything without any ball spells. There wasn't even one in the Casino!

I was going to go deeper and realized I wouldn't be able to touch the ASB. So, I did the library. Then, post library (and reading my many many spellbooks), I did the minotaur maze without ever even moving off the steps until the last level. Then I fried the minotaur emperor and his cronies with improved fireball. Too Easy. I should have done the Westside story challenge with a wizard!

Prayer was used almost exclusively for mana when I ran low.

I died after closing the gate but I still count it as a win. I had never done the bug cave before so I wanted to give that a go. Could've just walked out but I didn't. Turns out Mystic Shovel close to Magic Missile. Oh well.

I'm pretty sure this wizard was my tankiest character to date. Also, I did the whole game with sword and shield.

This is my third win (and also a challenge game) within two weeks. I think I need to take a break...

I don't know where else to put this but: I think the fact that their are two up staircases in the 5th (or is it 6th) floor of the rift dungeon needs to be more explicit. I feel like an unspoiled noobie could easily miss the fact and end up falling down the rift for almost no good reason. Although perhaps a noobie would explore every level more thoroughly. In any case I don't think a message: "You smell a fresh mountain breeze that must be coming from outside" would be amiss on that level.

Yeah, the first time I visited rift (this was also the only time ever that I have NOT slipped in and fallen), I knew that there was the library somewhere, but didn't know exactly where to find it, so I just climbed through levels all the way back up to the surface. The real mystery is how can you just normally climb up the stairs to the surface, and still it's not possible to use those stairs to return back to the rift.

Anyway, congratulations! Seeing as the real point of the game for non-chaotics is to close the gate and save Ancardia, I would count this as a win as well.

I can confirm as an unspoiled player I explored all the levels of the rift. It is not to say that every unspoiled player will though, but I think most people will know by that time that every dungeon in the game has a point to it. e: I was definitely not a newbie by that time, maybe a noob yes.
