So I was playing some All Zones Mode runs with Cadence, and during one of these runs, the very first item the game gave me was... yep, a Glass Rapier!
Thinking back to the last time I got a Glass Rapier relatively early (Monk 24), and how that run ended rather unfortunately in the very last boss battle... another early Glass Rapier kind of felt like the game was offering me a chance at redemption... so I took it. =)
And I'm glad I did! It wasn't a perfect run (lost both a Ring of Shielding and Glass Armor!)... but I did manage to get farther than my previous Glass Rapier run!! ^_^
So here it is... my first ever All Zones Mode Glass Rapier win! Hope you enjoy!

0:07 1-1
0:12 Oh, a Glass Rapier! Umm... yeah, given how my last Glass Rapier run ended, I definitely have to give this a try! =)

7:35 Mb: Gray Minotaur
7:53 Bomb Charm
8:16 Ring of Piercing & Quartz Armor (any armor is good, if I can find a Transmog Shop or Shrine of Glass!)
8:55 Oh wait, I'm not sure how to do this with the Bomb Charm... though I guess I don't really need the Gluttony Charm, so...
9:00 Empty Heart Container & Carrot
9:51 2-2
10:09 Carrot
10:19 Mb: Blood Nightmare
12:00 A Transmog Shop! I'm still hoping for Glass Armor, but... I really need a better shovel right now, so...
12:06 Pickaxe! Okay, now on to... oh right, armor!
12:17 Obsidian Armor. Not what I was hoping for, but... can't afford another transmog, so...
12:20 2-3
13:15 Mb: Gray Direbat
14:35 Z2B: Deep Blues 2
15:02 Flawless! Reward: Titanium Cat (nt) (was hoping for glass armor!)
15:11 3-1
16:43 Ring of Shielding! Piercing is really nice, but especially without Glass Armor, Shielding is probably the better choice... just in case. ^^;
17:01 Mb: Gray Direbat
17:25 3-2
17:36 Frost Charm! =)
17:46 Explorers Boots & Drumstick
18:04 Mb: Green Banshee
18:06 Ring of Shielding shattered! Eep! ...oh, a skeleton in the box. =p Ah well, so much for the ring... but at least I still have the Frost Charm! ^_^
18:56 Oh, a Glass Shrine! Oh, and a Glass Shop! ^_^
19:02 Thinking about whether to use the Glass Shrine for a full Glass build, or just buy the armor...
19:13 Glass Armor! Hmm, I guess I don't really need the full Glass build... and this way, if the rapier shatters on 5-4 again, I'll have a bit of a chance to complete the battle (again), instead of a Glass Jaw ending my run instantly. ^^;
19:47 3-3
20:13 Cursed Double Heart Container & Freeze Scroll
21:05 Mb: Gray Minotaur
22:05 Z3B: Coral Riff 3

33:28 Zone 5 Boss: Dead Ringer
33:36 Glass Armor shattered! Ack! Was paying too much attention to DR's bell, suddenly realized I wasn't sure which mini-boss I was summoning, decided to retreat rather than attack... and took a fraction of a second too long. ^^;;;
34:03 Zone 5, Final Boss: The NecroDancer
35:54 My first ever Glass Rapier All Zones Mode win! =)
