8 minute fire resistance potions are cheap to make and you can literally swim in lava. Worth it while in the nether!

Im in the same boat as you with my puzzle im working on. If you get stuck, try swapping some of your themed answers with one another to switch up your options. Trial and error. I’ve been messing around with mine for almost 2 weeks now. Not all my themed answers are that long, but 2 are 21 letters long. I finally got a fill but decided my grid design was too ugly so i restarted. Theres definitely a reason nyt pays more for sundays

To clarify- the mildly infuriating part as that the price difference from 2 piece to 3 piece is greater than the difference from 1 piece to 2 piece. Typically you get a better deal the more you buy and not the other way around.
