AMPLIFIED DLC v3.0.3-b1980 (2022 Jul 15)
Cavalcadence plays Aria 39: 0-gold win (v3.0.3) (All Zones Mode: AMPLIFIED)
So as a bit of a change of pace from Mary, I decided to try some Aria runs. ^_^
Recently, I've also kind of been wanting to record a 0-gold run in v3... so I figured, why not do both? =)
Unsurprisingly, the first few runs, uh, didn't go so well. ^^; Things started going a bit better after that, though. And, well, long story short... eventually, this run happened. =)
So anyway, here it is, my first ever v3 0-gold Aria win... hope you enjoy!
Some notes and possible points of interest:
0:06 5-1
0:57 Pickaxe! =)
1:39 Boots of Strength!
2:03 Drumstick! Nice, with a food item, Aria can afford to spend a bit of extra time exploring, without worrying about losing the Potion if the song runs out (eating food on the last beat protects her from taking damage!). ^_^
2:08 Mb: Metrognome
2:45 5-2
4:17 Torch of Strength, nice! 3-damage attack now! =)
4:22 Mb: Gray Minotaur
4:38 5-3
5:02 Mb: Red Dragon
5:10 Leprechaun!
7:57 Z5B: Deep Blues 5 (Aria version)
7:26 Flawless! Reward: Ring of Gold (nt). Heh.
7:35 4-1
7:58 Ring of Might, nice! So if we find protective boots, we can replace the Boots of Strength and still have a 3-damage attack! ^_^
8:00 Ooh, speaking of protective boots...
8:08 Hmm, probably not worth attacking the Shopkeeper for these... especially since we'd be left with no bombs... ^^;
8:43 Mb: The Mommy
10:22 4-2
10:35 Glass Slippers!
12:10 Mb: Ogre
12:33 Ooh, Shield Spell would be really useful for the final boss... not sure if it's worth the risk of accidentally stepping on gold in the arena, though, so...
- [Thinking about it now, Aria did have a food item, so she could've grabbed the spell on the 2nd- or 3rd-to-last beat, and eaten the drumstick on the last beat, but... ah well. ^^]
12:48 4-3
13:59 Mb: Green Banshee
14:25 Ooh, barrel! Oh nice, Winged Boots! Eep, lots of enemies, though! Um, better concentrate on that instead! ...oh, whoops, boots are on top of gold now. ^^;
14:37 Z4B: Coral Riff 4 (A)
15:14 Flawless! Reward: Heavy Glass Armor! Oh wow, nice! =)
15:33 3-1
16:46 Mb: Gray Minotaur
16:49 Wait, what is that blocking the minotaur? It's... is it a blademaster? Um, not sure if there's enough room to take care of that safely here, umm, umm, I guess it might be safer to try to--
16:51 Quaffed Potion! Coin multiplier lost! =p
17:14 3-2
17:16 Oh, a walled shop! Might be something good in there... but we do only have 5 bombs, hmm... Oh, a bomb goblin's approaching! How convenient! =)
17:24 Oh, there's also a wall mimic. We didn't need the bomb goblin after all, but... anyway, let's take a look! ...ah well, nothing too useful. ^^;
18:03 Grenade Charm!
18:08 Mb: Blood Nightmare
18:18 Pixie heal x2! =)
19:08 Hmm, I guess Earthquake could be useful against the sarcophagi in the final battle... We would lose the food item, but... our build is already pretty good, so the extra exploration time probably won't be necessary, hmm...
19:20 Earthquake Scroll! ^_^
19:34 Shield Scroll! Heh, definitely better than Earthquake for the final boss. =)
19:39 3-3
20:02 Mb: Green Banshee
20:10 Heavy Glass -1! Wait, what? ...oh, pixie. Too focused on the banshee, and didn't notice the pixie, I guess. ^^;
20:36 Z3B: Fortissimole 3 (A)
21:23 Flawless! Reward: Transmute Tome (nt)
21:31 2-1
22:04 Monocle
22:09 Mb: Blue Dragon
22:41 2-2
23:15 Mb: Green Banshee
23:33 2-3
24:01 Mb: Red Dragon
24:40 Z2B: King Conga 2 (A)
25:17 Flawless! Reward: (nt)
25:27 1-1
25:31 Oh wow, nice! Before rushing in, though, let's just take a moment to rest a bit first. ^.^
25:54 Ring of Peace! =)
26:42 Mb: Gray Direbat
26:57 1-2
27:11 Frost Charm!
27:32 Heavy Glass -2. Oh, right. Only doing 2 damage now. ^^;
28:00 Mb: Green Dragon
28:22 1-3
28:53 Oh wow, definitely want that! ^.^
29:18 Scroll of Need!
29:19 Potion (Need!) =)
29:41 Mb: Minotaur
29:59 Zone 1 Boss: The Golden Lute
30:10 Glass Armor
30:40 Glass Armor shattered! Eep! ^^; Was thinking about maybe leading the Lute back towards the top, and was looking to see how far up the wall pig attacks had gotten... and wasn't paying quite as much attention to the Lute as I should've been. ^^;;
30:46 Hmm, we do still have two hits of protection, and the Shield Scroll, so...
30:54 Shield!
31:01 "You won! Coin Score: 0" 0-gold Aria win! ^_^
