Second Time I've Played Through it completely AND beat Loki again first try XD he's too easy if you know how to. Farm lvl 14 for gold, upgrade your stats as much as you like, then when you get to lvl 19 get the starter weapon and beat it to get excaliber. Excaliber Pretty Much owns everything in my opinion, especially the last boss. Once you get Odin and excaliber, Loki is a cake walk, just move slowly around the screen left or right, if you get just the right pace, you should bearly ever get hit, and when you get your special, use it, you can either stay far away and shoot him, but I like to get upclose, Odin has Invincibility for a special. Once you beat Loki, heh heh heh, so much stuff to kill in so little time... no really, even the final boss becomes beatable in like under a minute O.o
