Got careless running into a room full of Octos. There were five of them, and EVERY ONE of the five did their ranged attack, TWO TURNS IN A ROW....
Tourist is great. A somewhat under-whelming ability, but it's got a lot of utility to it and it fits just about any build, even warrior ones....
The reason I prefer to wait until the end is specifically because I DON'T like running around the dungeon too much. By waiting until the floor is...
- Every character should carry around at least an Ingot Grinder and a Press. Cheesy omelettes are one of the best ways to heal, bar none, and you...
The worthwhile ones, anyway. I'm thinking of getting Torchlight 2 instead of Diablo 3, it's that good. And Torchlight has a nice system for...
