if you do extended tomb will be so unpleasant that there's no reason not to, or it will be a huge resource sink. also enough sub-20k 15 runers may have eventually made people realize that statue form and AC is good. Imagine what kind of turn counts we could have seen in like, 0.17-a before the various nerfs to chei statue but a more developed strategy. Reminder that chei statue builds have had:
- Statue form NERFED
- Stoneskin + statue combo REMOVED
- Phase shift REMOVED
- Teleport spamming in extended REMOVED
- otoh you can passage spam instead, I'm not sure if that's a positive or negative for turn count...
and probably a few other things I forgot at the moment, and people are still getting sub-20k 15 rune wins. Now imagine this with 40/40 AC/EV in Vaults.
