The Demon Archeologist works pretty well, he's almost lvl14 now. He uses none of his active spells (poison X and splash III) and almost never dies. I think I stay with this built without ascending any more.
My demon archeologist (lvl13) works pretty well even if he doesn't use his poison X at all. He just killed an elder seven-headed mythril dragon at the vulcano! (nobody cares about ten-headed imps!) ;)
My lvl13 demon archeologist has the spell (or better say passive skill) mindreading α' which increases wisdom and enhance reflexes III. But still wisdom is at its base value of 9 and with dex the same. I have seen this reveral times throughout the game with other enhancing skills.
Nice twist of Canabalt. But the green segments placed just at the beginning of the action bar are a bit unfair! Still I give you 5/5 for the flair and the upgrade system! :)
thank you very much
