I love (in a weird way) how unforgiving SPD can be. I’ve died more times due to my own mistakes than to the game beating me.
Recently I was trying to win the game with five challenges. I was having a great run, near the end of the caves, going swimmingly. Having “on diet” on, I was at about 20% HP. I found a wand of corrosion, and I said, it’s quite unlikely to be cursed, I’m just gonna zap that DM-200 over there.
Needless to say, the wand was cursed, it created some sort of huge lightning bolt, I was dead and my great run was over. All because I was unwilling to wait to verify the wand was not cursed.
LOL, that’s a good one :-)
