shadowblades and other stuff

This is the first class I am playing in this game, and I am currently at level 18 just done with the maze:

I am having an absolute blast, the game is fantastic - thank you!

I find stealth to be very effective so far.

From what I read most people don't like Shadow combat. I am planning on keeping it on at 1 point for now. I had tried it on a low level build but it was underwhelming. Perhaps if it scaled to 25 instead of 16 and the mana cost decreased with investment in talent points rather than increased it would be worth considering? With shadow combat giving higher damage that would open up generic talent points perhaps but obviating the need for knife mastery?

Adventure mode is a perfect balance between 1 life and full cheating - thank you for implementing this! I have of course burned all my extra lives doing dumb/careless things up to this point but I am thankful I don't have to start from scratch yet.
