So... during a recent Dove score run, I accidentally summoned a Leprechaun (that got away), which got me wondering... how would a Leprechaun react to getting hit by Dove's Flower? By dropping gold? A Lucky Charm? Both? Neither?
So I played another couple runs, and managed to summon another Leprechaun. I hit it with the Flower, and... disappointingly, it dropped neither gold nor a Lucky Charm... it just became confused. =p Ah well. Not very useful for a score run, but... at least now I know. =)
Anyway, I decided to continue on with the Dove score run.
...and on the very next level, I encountered a Green Bat. ^^; I wasn't able to confuse it or hit it with a bomb trap, but I was able to hit it with one of Dove's teleport-bombs. =) By that point, the song was starting to run out, so I just headed for the exit after that... and continued with the run.
After the careless mistakes that ended my last Green Bat run, I kind of wanted to complete this one... and I guess the confused Leprechaun, even though it didn't drop a Lucky Charm, actually did bring me luck of some kind, because... despite a couple close calls along the way... somehow, I managed to make it through to my first ever Dove + Green Bat All Zones Mode victory! =)
Anyway, here it is... an All Zones Mode run that features a confused Leprechaun, a Green Bat... and a Dove victory! Hope you enjoy!
The Green Bat was encountered (Zone 2, Level 1) at around: 9:10
The mini-bosses I encountered:
Zone 1: Minotaur, Green Dragon, Minotaur.
Zone 2: Gray Direbat, Blood Nightmare, Red Dragon.
Zone 3: Blue Dragon, Gray Minotaur, Green Banshee.
Zone 4: The Mommy, Ogre, Blue Dragon.
Some notes and possible points of interest:
0:07 Zone 1, Level 1
0:34 Chainmail & Blast Helm!
1:51 Mini-boss: Minotaur
2:42 Zone 1, Level 2
3:01 Nazar Charm!
3:24 Mini-boss: Green Dragon
4:57 Zone 1, Level 3
5:06 Ring of Regeneration! Could be useful for a score run, not just because of the healing, but also because not having the Ring of Peace will mean stronger mini-bosses that are worth more gold! =)
6:31 Mini-boss: Minotaur
7:15 Leprechaun! ...who doesn't drop anything when Flower-confused. =p Ah well. =)
7:28 Hm, I doubt it'll work, but maybe I'll try a bomb, to see if that makes the Leprechaun drop anything. ...nope. ^^
7:41 Zone 2, Level 1
7:47 Mini-boss: Gray Direbat
9:10 What the...? Is that a Green Bat? Wow, it is! ^_^ Kind of crowded in here, though, so let's see if we can lead some of the other enemies out of here...
9:55 Hmm, or maybe try the bomb trap...
9:57 ...or a teleport bomb? Got it! =)
10:03 If you look over to the left, you can see where the Green Bat got teleported to. =) At the time, though I didn't notice, since I was more worried about the song running out. ^^;;

21:32 Mini-boss: Blue Dragon
21:36 Quaffed Potion!
