Sunday, 27th November 2011, 00:58 by Lantier

OK, I just got through the Red Sonja Sprint map. This one was much shorter than the 10 Rune Challenge.

Here's the dump file:

And here's my basic walkthrough (for a DE Wiz of Vehmy):

1. Turn off all skills except Summons. Beat Iyjb with the beserk potion. Mem Imps and Blink.

2. Now turn off all skills except Conj. Beat the Ogre using Imps. Mem Conj Flame and Meph.

3. Now turn off all skills except Casting. Beat Siggy using Meph and Imps.

4. Beat Giant Amoeba using Conj Flame and Imp blockers.

5. Get lucky and find Vehmy altar. Worship Vehmy. She rules. Do no open door to the right.

6. Beat Jelly using Conj Flame. If it eats the loot, live with it. It isn't that big a deal.

7. Turn on Conj and leave Casting on. Those will be the main skills you need to win. Manage other skills as you see fit. Beat Giant Elefant Slug (left) using Conj Flame and Imps. Do not go right for now.

8. If you didn't get lucky in step 5 above, get lucky now and find Vehmy. Remember, She rules. If you fail to get lucky, stop reading.

9. Head south and beat Sonja using Meph and Imps.

10. Beat Rock Troll (on the right) using Conj Flame and the door. Door > troll.

11. Do not go south for now (spore room). You can probably get away with it with 2 Stealth, but why risk it? Find the secret door on the left of Sonja's room.

12. Summon lots of Imps and keep at least 1 between you and the unknown. Advance. Beat Eyeballs and Muters using Imps. Lots and lots of Imps. Vehmy will love you.

13. Get lucky in your stores and find rP and SInv. Maybe some food. Lev or Flight would be good too, but not crucial right now. Note Dig if you find it, but save your $ for rP and SInv.

14. Go back to the Jelly room and now go right (the one I told you to ignore in step 7 above). Beat Centaurs using Meph and Imps.

15. Go right and beat Yellow Bug using Meph and Imps.

16. Go south and beat Okolb using Repel and Imps. Lots and lots of Imps.

17. Go south/right Beat ninja Spiders using Meph and Conj Flame (i.e., Meph south, they wake up, get confused, bite each other, flame any empty squares, watch them burn).

18. Ignore first door unless you have Vehmy's first book (you should not yet). Go to second door. Restore you MP.

19. Beat Eyeball and Muters and Necrophagi using Imps. Lots and lots and lots of Imps. Vehmy will love you so your MP reserve should hold up OK. Do not open the big door to the north unless you have Vehmy's first book. (You might by now.)

20. Go shopping. Get lucky on rP and SInv if you did not do so in Step 13 above. If you don't find either, well, it sucks to be you.

21. Mem Freezing Cloud. Go back to ninja Spider corridor. Open the door you ignored in step 18. Use Conj Flame and Freezing Cloud to kill Inviso Horrors.

22. Go back to door ignored in step 5. Call up Imps and open door. Beat Kobold Demonologists and Eyeball using Meph and Imps.

23. Reload MP. Call up more Imps. Open next door (to the right). Use Imps to block Crawlers as you retreat. Beat Crawlers using Freezing Cloud and Door.

24. Proceed to room with 4 doors. North door is just loot. If you lack IMB, open door on right. Kill Fire Snake Thingie using Conj Flame + Freezing Cloud trick. If you still need to please Vehmy, open door on the right after this and slaughter the Bacon-on-Legs using the same trick.

25. Go back to room with 4 doors. Open south door. Kill Gargoyle with whatever you want. It is a pushover. Open door on right. Kill Norris with Freezing Cloud. Lorocoyowhatever will come for you. Kill it with IMB and SInv.

26. Mem Poison Cloud. Loot room to the south using P Cloud to neutralize ice fog machine.

27. Go back through the bacon room and head south at the next door you find. There is a Daeva stuck behind glass. Kill it using Freezing Cloud. Evil laughter. Make sure to do the evil laughter bit. Vehmy appreciates it.

28. Open the other door in the Daeva room and kill the pack of Inviso Horrors using poison.

29. Keep going south. Repel if you have it. rF if you have it. Neither is necessary. Corridor will go left. As soon as you see Fire Giant, retreat. Flood corridor with poison. Lots and lots of poison. For laughs and giggles, throw in Imps to delay the Giants. Kill 4 Giants.

30. You are almost there. When you see glass, stop. This is it. Call up some Imps. Drink your speed pot. Activate whatever buffs you have. Make sure you have 1 Blink Scroll and 1 Lev something before you proceed. Oh, and Dig. Make sure you have Dig.

31. Proceed. See Orb. Dig through to it. Blink to get it. Lev back over water. RunlikehellbecauseTiamatwillbeonyourarse.

32. Win.

Enjoy! :mrgreen:

Nice win!

Tried messing around with the guide you kindly provided. Biggest problem (aside from the ridiculous Ijyb kill rate, of course) is that the imps have this annoying habit of opening doors at the wrong time and messing everything up.

I was watching Lantier's game and I confirm that he had this problem too. Very funny from my position, much cursing from his. :twisted:

Anyway, congrats again, Lantier! Which map's up next?

Sunday, 27th November 2011, 18:22 by Lantier

@ mageykun: yeah, Imps are hard to keep in line. :lol:

Here are the solutions I found:

Siggy - summon the imps in Iylb's room, saving 6 mp. Lead them to Siggy's room. An imp should kindly find and open a secret door for you (I think they do that to line up with you). Now you have 2 meph shots to get Siggy before he goes inviso.

Jelly - an imp may open the door to the jelly room while you attack the amoeba. No big deal. Let it happen. The jelly shouldn't wake up and if it does, you should have enough mp to firewall both the amoeba and the jelly.

Slug - an imp may open the centaur room door. That should be OK since the centaurs will remain asleep through the fog.

Sonja - an imp may open the door to the troll room if you wait in there too long. My solution is to not enter the room myself during the fight and just use ta to sic the imps after Sonja. After that, I lead the imps back to the slug room to wait em out before I go after the troll.

Yellow Bug / Okolb - no big deal if the imps open these.

Ninja Spider Corridor - this one is the worst since the door leads to 2x Inviso Horrors. I try to not use imps in this corridor or maybe just 1 or 2. Meph and Flame the spiders to death or use zombies (shadow imps rock).

Necrophagi / Muters - this one is also really bad. If you don't have SInv, you are basically dead if the imps open that room and wake up the Horrors. (Hence the swearing referenced by Daydreamer above...

) Try to move south from the entrance once you have enough imps to block/attack. That tends to draw the imps away from the door. ta helps a bit too. If you have SInv, and the Horrors wake up, you can Meph em and perhaps lock em away again. (They don't seem to know how to use door handles.)

After this point, you should be tough enough that imps opening doors is no longer an issue. :mrgreen:

@ Daydreamer: hehe. Thanks for the spec! My plan is to re-do Sonja the long way and try to kill the hydra/dragons/maybe Lom this go around.
