It took me a long time to finally make it! Swarm intelligence + hostile champions + badder bosses, with a sniper.

I was lucky to get a projecting bow and a brimstone armor (plate). I don’t know if I’d have survived the burning fist + dark fist combo without it.

    I always prepare for burning fist by cooking a few of Dragons blood elixir’s

    Ooh, I’ve been trying to do this with same champion and challenges for a small while. Trying to get both the “3 or more challenges” and “beat final boss with badder bosses and all demon spawners enabled” badges. Failed each time, including twice getting to 25th floor but failing to beat Yog-Dzewa. Maybe I should be less ambitious and only try to get one badge at once…

      After being able to consistently win without challenges, I activated three and then two challenges, only to consistently lose! I had to take it slow and learn new strategies for each challenge, and then learn to apply them all at once. You also need to be lucky and get the right equipment!

      TLDR, take it slow and keep trying to improve your strategy, eventually you’ll get there.

        Thanks! I’ve won without challenge with each hero at least once, and once with a single challenge, but not with two challenges, maybe I’ll try that first.

          Just keep trying and you’ll get there. It took me many, many games, and I still lose much more than I win with two challenges. Sometimes it feels like a whole different game, once you enable a couple of challenges.

    Dumb question. How do you upgrade the bow?

      the bow upgrades itself at every 5 levels

      +1 at lvl 5, +2 at 10 and so on

    I am currently trying 6 challenges. It’s hell. Actual hell. Went for what I think are the 6 easier challenges: Barren Land, On Diet, Into Darkness, Hostile Champions, Badder Bosses and Swarm Intelligence. With mage, wanting to go warlock for the saturation benefits he gets, but the furthest I’ve reached has been leaving Tengu at 15-ish HP. I just needed 1 more healing potion… Dodged every single of his attacks, too. Ig it’s just really hard to beat Tengu with 2 healing pots (had to drink the other few I had to not die, starvation REALLY hurts) and on a +1 leather. Had other good run with better armor, was “ready” to enter Tengu, as I’d already explored every single bit of F9 (actually, I hadn’t, Into Darkness leaves tons of dark spots) but died out of starvation.
