Now I was in a game winning position because my altar could test armor and I just slowly upgraded this guy by digging our vaults. I also found a bones file of an Arc which had a touchstone and that got me more money for donating as well as an EARLY luckstone. The early luckstone was fantastic because it allowed my hammer to hit more often. We were on easy street until I found a nest of cockatrices on level 21.

I found one of these on level 18. I took it slowly, having read your account. I breathed a sigh of relief when the
