Cavalcadence plays Monk 48: 20-damage axe shattered + win! (All Zones Mode: AMPLIFIED)
So once again, as a change of pace, I decided to play some normal Monk runs. And a couple runs in... the game offered Monk a 1-2 Ring of Becoming... but also Glass Armor and a Potion... so I figured it might be worth the risk of trying for Wonder. =)
The game then offered a Glass Axe... which isn't the safest of weapons for Monk, but with Glass Armor and a Potion, I figured, sure, why not? =)
Eventually, Monk found the Transmog Shop (Ring of Wonder, yay!), but also a Glass Jaw... and I started thinking about maybe making this a high-damage run. ^.^
Anyway, long story short, Monk ended up with a 20-damage axe... and things went well... until it shattered. ^^; Monk managed to survive without stepping on any gold, though, and recovered well enough to eventually finish the run with an 8-damage weapon! ^_^
So... anyway, here's the video! Hope you enjoy!

11:58 Glass Armor shattered! ...ack, lost track of the golem's timing while dealing with the skeleton. ^^;;
12:22 Another golem... better make sure to keep track of its timi-- ack, blood shovel! Umm, umm... better stand still to make sure we don't accidentally step on any gold!
12:24 Spiked Ears shattered! ...oh right, the spiked ears. =p

20:51 Glass Jaw!
21:05 Karate Gi, nice! =)
21:16 Torch of Walls... not the torch I was hoping for, but still... let's see... 4, 8, 10... 20-damage axe now! ^_^

28:33 Glass Axe & Slippers & Jaw shattered! Quaffed Potion!
28:50 Glass Shard. =p
29:30 Mb: Red Dragon
29:31 Hmm, with the Gi and Ring, the Shard is basically a 4-damage dagger... Monk's less likely to accidentally step on gold with a dagger, compared to a rapier, so... let's stick with the Shard for now. ^_^
30:06 5-2
30:14 Obsidian Axe! Heh, looks like the game really wants this to be an Axe run. =) Hmm, 8-damage axe, I think? Not as good as 20, of course, but... ^_^
30:34 Accidental Freeze! =p Was thinking of going down then digging left, then thought maybe it'd be better to move onto the wire to take care of the zombie first... and ended up hitting both directions. =p
30:44 Mb: Green Metrognome
31:01 5-3
31:21 Mb: Red Dragon
31:45 Z5B: King Conga 5
32:14 Flawless!
32:20 20-damage weapon lost + win! I'm pretty sure this is the highest-damage weapon I've ever lost on a winning run (with any character). ^.^;
- [Also, I just checked, and I think 8-damage weapon is currently tied for the highest damage I've won a Monk run with (tied with: Monk 29 & Monk 40)! ^_^]
