Cavalcadence plays Monk 47: Dagger of Phasing win (All Zones Mode: AMPLIFIED)
So, as a change of pace, I decided to try some normal Monk runs, and on the very first run... the game decided to offer Monk a 1-1 Dagger of Phasing. ^.^
I don't think I'd ever tried an actual Dagger of Phasing Monk run before... but with my somewhat recent experiences with Cadence, I felt somewhat more comfortable with the phasing dagger... so I figured I'd give it a try. =)
Long story short, I definitely made some careless mistakes along the way... but fortunately, none of them resulted in Monk accidentally stepping on some gold... and I actually ended up with my first ever Dagger of Phasing Monk win! ^_^
Anyway, here's the video... hope you enjoy!
