East

Personal best character died (level 29 Arcane Blade. Also, whoever was warning about not taking on orc pyromancers and cryomancers at the same time wasn't kidding), but not before finally getting east and knocking off a few of the dungeons there. Now that I've seen it, I just wanted to say I'm impressed. Interesting monster opponents, neat dungeon designs, and (on normal, anyway) a high but not unreasonable level of difficulty. In a way, it feels better balanced and the fights feel less "RNG-y" than fights like Shade and The Master (this character got to The Master at level 21 with almost 550 health and wielding a shocking mithril battle axe of massacre and hit like a truck while wearing armor of stability chain chugging potions of speed/free action/healing, yet The Master was still able to make him cough up his Blood of Life extra life. If this guy hadn't been able to get it done, I'd have called it a day).
Well done, DG and team.
