OK, I've read that oozemancers are overpowered, but crikey! I am in no way a good player of any computer games, especially roguelikes - but this guy was basically invincible from level 30ish/Reknor onwards (I died a couple of times very stupidly earlier on).
It was my first time in the East, and I literally waltzed through everything, except a particularly embarrassing suffocation death in the Valley of the Moon (not paying enough attention), a couple of deaths on High Peak (one of the stair guardians was some kind of insanely fast orc who seemed to hit me a million times in one turn) and in the final battle (something similar happened, don't quite understand what).
Basically, what did I do right? Did I have incredibly good gear? Did I luck into a good build? I basically just spent the whole second half of the game casting mucus and acid splash, running away around a corner, and letting my endless horde of mucus oozes spit any enemies to death. Once I'd beaten the wizards I decided to sacrifice myself because I was too bored with that play-style to continue.
I think I need to play some kind of defenceless melee character next, just to bring myself crashing back down to earth. Maybe a rogue or something? Also I'm definitely playing roguelike from now on, now that I have seen the lie of the land in the second half of the game.
Fantastic game though! Now for more hours of fun with all the new unlocks I got on this run.
