Sign in and set your goal at floor 15 to earn the hard badge ... I went to floor 20 something (it seems like a never-ending game) but there wasn't any new kind of enemy turning up, so by then it had got a bit repetitive ... All in all, a very nice game!
And, store your drop rate gears at Paul's (available when you have played for a while) throughout the game. When passing through areas you know you easily beat, always wear your drop rate gears. Then, when coming to unknown territory, switch to more powerful gears.
Don't bother to compose for level 4 as it fails half of the times and you lose all previous attributes. You'll beat the game anyway. The best use I had of my holy stones was to sell them. If you are in the early stages of the game, compose for drop rate as you will have a greater chance to find better items in the chests.
You must go through composing levels 1-3 first, starting with a blessing stone and two small crystals. Make sure you can compose the necklace four times, if your necklace reads "Compose: 3" you can only compose it three times.
You can beat this game in different ways, though whatever you choose the last quest is pretty tough!
I beat it by way of Blade Storm level 3 AND Big Bang level 3. Good skills to go for ...
Anyone got through Chusty? I re-started the game, not exiting while getting rid of the 15 thiefs, but that bastard Chusty still didn't let me in the cave. Don't trust that guy ... :-)
Only ran into one bug in this game, as previously mentioned the wise man in Keops never accepted the rock key. All in all, a nice game and a vast improvement to earlier editions of WoP. Now, may we hope for a World of Pain #4? ...
