Cavalcadence plays Nocturna 24: Hard Mode 0-gold win! (Hard Mode: AMPLIFIED)
(Hard Mode 0-gold challenge)
So this is something I've been working on, off-and-on, for quite a while now...
...and I finally got the win! =) Despite not acquiring any non-Glass armor. ^^; And despite making a bunch of careless mistakes. ^^;; The items from Zone 2 definitely helped carry the rest of the run, though. =)
Anyway, here it is... my first ever Hard Mode 0-gold win! Hope you enjoy!
Some notes and possible points of interest:
0:10 1-1
1:33 Explorers Boots
2:16 Fireball Spell
2:18 Mb: Minotaur & Direbat
3:06 1-2
3:44 Mb: RDragon
3:54 Leprechaun!
5:50 1-3
6:26 Mb: RDragon
6:49 Mb: GMinotaur
8:19 Apple. Hmm, if I use Blood Magic for the Fireball... the Apple will still bring me back to full health! ^_^
8:25 Titanium Shovel!
8:38 Z1B: King Conga 1 & GMinotaur & RDragon
9:09 Flawless! R: Freeze Tome (nt)
9:23 2-1
9:39 Monkey's Paw!
10:43 Spiked Ears! Probably won't last for the whole run, but in the meantime, a 3-damage Cutlass will be nice. =)
10:54 Mb: GMinotaur & GDirebat
11:32 Spiked Ears shattered! Well, those didn't last long. =p Was going to attack the bat, but then saw the wind mage in the shadows, decided to go up instead of left... and accidentally double-tapped. ^^;
11:42 2-2
11:50 Mb: RDragon
12:33 Torch of Walls!
13:20 Hmm, walled shops usually have good items, so... let's spend a bomb and take a look. ^_^
13:25 Oh wow, definitely want! =)
13:43 Titanium Cutlass & Magic Drumstick! =9 & Empty Heart Container!
14:18 Mb: GBanshee
14:27 2-3
14:40 Mb: BNightmare
16:21 Mb: GDirebat
17:15 Z2B: Coral Riff 2 & BNightmare & GBanshee
17:42 Flawless! R: Freeze Spell! Hmmm, having Fireball is nice... but Freeze'll probably be more useful for the Conductor battle, so... ^_^
18:00 3-1
18:22 Mb: Banshee
18:55 Mb: GMinotaur
20:13 Hmm, actually, the Titanium Cutlass is a pretty safe weapon to handle the dragons... yeah, okay, let's go for it! =)
20:32 Glass Armor & Ring of Uncertainty! Hmm, though now that I think about it, picking up Uncertainty might not have been a good idea, since it could've turned out to be the Ring of Gold... which would've ended the 0-gold run. ^^;;
20:39 3-2
20:49 Mb: BNightmare & RDragon
20:41 Ah, Uncertainty is Ring of War!
21:29 Glass Armor shattered! Ack, was paying too much attention to that goblin! ^^;
22:25 Blast Helm!
23:21 3-3
24:30 Mb: GDirebat & GBanshee
26:11 Z3B: Deep Blues 3 & GMinotaur & BNightmare
26:40 Flawless! R: Luminous Torch (nt)
26:56 4-1
28:01 Thank you, spike traps! ^^
28:08 Mb: Ogre & GBanshee
28:19 Oops, accidental bomb! ^^;
29:13 Oh, an Urn!
29:33 Hmm, Transmute could be useful... but I think I'd rather keep Freeze for the final battle. ^^
29:45 4-2
31:02 Mb: TMommy (killed by RD) & RDragon
31:46 4-3
32:12 Pixie heal!
32:50 Potion!
33:06 Mb: BNightmare
33:35 Hmm, not sure I remember how to do this with the Blast Helm. Plus I kind of want to save bombs for the Conductor battle... and I do have a Drumstick and Bat-healing if I need it, so...
34:24 Mb: GBanshee
34:24 Z4B: Death Metal 4 & TMommy & Ogre. I probably should've just used Freeze here, but I actually forgot I had it. ^^;
34:50 Ow. =p
35:05 5-1
36:17 Mb: RDragon & GMetrognome
36:48 5-2
37:33 Mb: RDragon
37:46 Ack, wait! Bad place to attack the skull! That's going to get me... surrounded by gold. =p
37:47 Umm, umm... I guess I could wait out the song? Or if I use a bomb, I would still have 4 to get rid of two Batteries, hmm...
37:54 Ack! Diagonal-attacking enemy! Okay, bomb it is! ^^;;
38:00 Mb: GMinotaur
39:08 5-3
40:02 Mb: GMinotaur & GMetrognome
40:54 Zone 5 Boss: Frankensteinway
41:12 Ow.
41:58 Ow, and ow again. Well this isn't going well... =p
42:02 Ow.
42:04 Quaffed Potion! =(
42:21 Ow... but at least that'll clear the left side...
42:35 Right side power destroyed... and right side sarcophagus as well! ^^
42:44 Whew! Took way too much damage and lost the Potion... hopefully the next battle will go better. ^^;
42:51 Zone 5, Final Boss: The Conductor
44:47 4 bombs to get rid of 2 batteries...
44:51 Freeze!
44:54 Ow.
45:04 Ow, and ow again.
45:20 Freeze!
45:24 !
45:29 My first ever Hard Mode 0-gold win! ^_^
