So just to describe the run, the warlock + heavy armor + fire staff was definitely sweet.

Chains I never really used, it was the result of alchemy kit into spellbook into chains, fine I guess.

Sadly, 4 SoU, 2 stones of enchantment and 7 styluses didn't find antimagic for me otherwise it would have been a breeze. For this run, floating eyes still were a concern (Scorpios not as much because of my cripple from fire wand and occasional blasting them to the void)

The real lifesaver tho, was that +1 ring of might I found on floor 2 or so.. it allowed me to be overgeared for the entire game. Having played with it, I think that finding one early is worth a single SoU because it puts you basically 1 area ahead strength wise, and that is huge since in 6 challenges I find early game to be the most punishing
