Abyssal rune challenge

With the recent trunk change Abyssal Knights can now go to lower levels. This led me to try about 30 level 1s to get the rune. Best I managed was to see it in Abyss 5.

Who wants to take up the challenge and succeed where I have failed?

Re: Abyssal rune challenge

So I keep playing SpAK until I get the simple unguarded rune vault on A:3?

Certainly an option but not easy. Speed is obviously nice but stealth is only 1.7 to start. I don't think anything is realisticly killable to level up.

Ok, that's pretty cool. One turn and you could have escaped.

Seems like a possible way to go with speedrun. Maybe.

Or a "never enter the lair or orc" challenge...

Re: Abyssal rune challenge

I encountered a vault that I'm pretty sure was put in just to fuck with lvl 1 SpAKs...

When you enter abyss:3 you're placed in a vault with 7 centaurs with arrows of dispersal. There's a closed door at the end, but I died after getting surprisingly close to it. (What's behind it? Will I ever know?).

Eyes of draining will give you a couple of levels, if you can find and kill one.

Re: Abyssal rune challenge

I did it, by the way, after many a SpAK:

  Code:
!lm mauris rune abyss SpAK 1 -tv:<2

Then I walked around the dungeon a bit and quit. Nice 13032 score though.
