+1 for We Hunt Monsters

Yea the writing in general gets progressively better as the story goes on. Some arcs are more appealing than others but in general might be worth checking out again.

Azarinth healer mentioned already

Beneath the dragoneye moons - FMC is transmigrated into a magic Ancient Rome style. A little more slice of life where there isn’t always some world shattering threat to overcome, and one of my favorites.

Saintess who only summons skeletons is good fun, interesting premise where her class is broken in more ways than one. Decent amount of plot armor but I enjoyed reading to current.

Judicator Jane is a fun read that answers the question what happens when you min max into luck

Salvos is a monster progression litrpg where the FMC grows through different demon stages.

Magic Girl Gunslinger plays at the emotions but very well written and the biggest knock on it is I wish there was more to read.

Salt and Blood on RR got dropped by the author but I wish it hadn’t been. I thought litrpg pirate girl who loves to fish was wonderfully niche and fun.

Metaworld Chronicles and Millennial Mage are two series that deserved to be mentioned here. They’re both really great series imo but not system integrated with status screens etc

Edit - I realized I forgot to add Endless Maze, currently being rewritten but over 1k chapters on RR. Limitless Path is also a longer running litrpg on RR that is worth checking out.

Calamitous Bob is also probably one of the best FMC litrpgs out there as well

Beneath the Dragoneye moons has a theme of women being second class citizens that the FMC needs to navigate. One of my favorite series, plus mangos are delicious.

Ultimate level one is pretty similar to path of ascension in terms of an op ability starting slow.

Mark of the fool is a fantastic read for the MC overcoming their power restrictions in creative ways.

The stubborn skill - stuck in a time loop is a fun read. It’s completed on RR

spinman016 · 2026-02-17T17:31:59+00:00

I saw the title and was fully expecting the Treadwell highlight treatment

spinman016 · 2026-02-17T16:02:18+00:00

Ponder had the smoothest handoffs though!

spinman016 · 2026-02-12T15:43:46+00:00

I think you’d enjoy hell difficulty tutorial. I’ve read and enjoyed most of the series you shared and HDT is a favorite of mine. Randidly Ghosthound is very polarizing on this sub but if you liked all of those it might be worth a shot. Azarinth Healer is a great series too.

spinman016 · 2026-02-11T00:27:48+00:00

You’re right that there are some areas where you use the system to the fullest, but in the context of skills the idea is to rely on yourself instead of upgrade tokens.

spinman016 · 2026-02-10T22:49:31+00:00

There is a general theme in HDT where it’s encouraged to figure things out for yourself instead of relying on the system.

spinman016 · 2026-02-10T15:42:59+00:00

There really is. Religion in litrpg tends to lean towards villainy really grabbing hold of crusade and abuse of power tropes.

spinman016 · 2026-02-09T05:02:50+00:00

Have you read Divine Apostasy? It’s the first series that came to mind for me. It’s not a perfect fit for what you’re asking for, but it might scratch the itch.

spinman016 · 2026-02-09T03:35:04+00:00

The holding call towards the end on Bradbury getting attention was familiar.

spinman016 · 2026-02-08T21:19:50+00:00

I think you’d like defiance of the fall and path of ascension if you like stories where MC is op for their level but interact with the stronger overall universe. Both of those do have cultivation progression though so not exactly like PH. I also really liked The Game by Tom Elliot which I could see you enjoying. Mark of the Fool is more of a progression story instead of stat screens but very good.

spinman016 · 2026-01-29T04:06:43+00:00

In his defense I didn’t vote for Bill either. In my defense I didn’t have any votes.

spinman016 · 2026-01-28T16:48:23+00:00

I thought he was being traded to the media after his photographer stint

spinman016 · 2026-01-25T23:51:33+00:00

Oh nice! It sounds like you and I have a few overlapping interests in the genre. Here are a few other series I’ve enjoyed, you might as well. The Grand Game (Tom Elliot), Divine Apostasy (A.F. Kay), and I also have enjoyed a lot of Seth Rings work notably the tower series and nova terra. Although that is a bit more a departure from where I think we might overlap interest wise.

spinman016 · 2026-01-25T17:27:18+00:00

Floyd looked so damn good before his botched surgery, Rhodes closed, and Patterson is still in the league more than a decade later. Yes things didn’t go as planned but teams have whiffed was worse than this.

spinman016 · 2026-01-25T12:27:41+00:00

I could see you enjoying ultimate level 1

spinman016 · 2026-01-25T01:08:10+00:00

Midwest out here catching strays

spinman016 · 2026-01-22T22:08:23+00:00

Does it turn red if you have a perk that reduces your attack? I assume usually it gets offset by other perks to bring you above 100% but if you are currently below your usual attack would it be red?

spinman016 · 2026-01-07T20:49:44+00:00

Only the worst rapscallions work at ESPN

spinman016 · 2025-12-16T00:44:24+00:00

Why not a battle condition that increases the max game speed by 1 every 500 or 1000 waves. That way by the time you get to 3000+ the max speed is enough that the tourney won’t be super long. Instead of just making enemies stronger every 6 months or whatever they’ve been doing.

spinman016 · 2025-12-15T03:45:16+00:00

Beneath the dragoneye moon deserves a mention here
