So far I have not managed to get Monk through Demon halls with the fourth challenge.

I am getting closer with a highly upgraded Greatshield which blocks 0-26 damage combined with a cloth of anti-magic.

On one hand the Greatshield feels like cheating on the challenge, on the other I could have gone “Champion” instead of Monk and any secondary weapon would be overkill.

But I want to be the monk with huge shield.

I used one SoU to get enchantments and got the one I did not want on the shield: blazing.

Should have stayed with the Camouflage jacket and the Blooming enchantment but is late to retract.

On arrival to Demon halls I have spent already 3 healings and wondering why are succubus hitting so hard?

    Monk works even with a t5 weapon? I thought you needed t1 armor and weapons.

    Why did you take the blazing enchant if you didn’t want it? Scroll of enchantment let’s you pick from 3 choices.

    I tried to play Monk with the cloth armor and gloves, but I really disliked the play style and ended up just deleting the save and starting over as champion. Maybe adding a t5 weapon will let me enjoy it. I like the utility of the dragon kick, but I hated using a wand or hitting something 35 times before it died.

      Damn, I did not think about the SoE! I made 2 stones instead. Blazing without Brimstone is a PITA

          Thanks for the tip. After burning through a few more times, I used the last SoU to fix it. All was great again but I lost the game due to a stupid error due to lack of attention while targeted by Scorpios and Eyes… Could have used the armor’s Challenge, or a full waterskin, but I did not realize I was on low health!
