The escape wings are begged. I lost all but one of my spells. Also, are you supposed to lose your items too? If so, how do you expect us to go any further? I had to escape at lvl 47, and could no way even complete a level when I started again because my equipment was so low level.
I maxed out Construction and Night Guard, along with Combat, completed all quest, spent the last few weeks on Theology, and got 102610, Brilliant Tutor of Combat.
