I decided to try to play with minimum stats, i.e., 15 body, agility, mind and spirit, as a challenge. I picked mage.

One of the first things I notice is that my heal spell does 75-150 healing?! My shield lasts over 2000 seconds?! I buy fire arrow spell and it says it has 15 range and can deal 75 damage! Is this a secret godmode?

I start on Red Hat map and decide to do the incoming spirits quest. I was lied to. My fire arrow deals 5 damage. My shield lasts less than 10 seconds. My heal spell doesn't even heal half my health and I will say here that I have 25 health max. Well, I'm an earth mage, so I'm not switching to my stone missile staff against spirits. I have to do this with the fire arrows now. MFW I run out of mana casting the basic spell.

I go to Muddle map. I kill the druid at the east side of the map with my staff while he was busy fighting the undead. I get +1 max hp, I have 26 now. Yay! The zombie is still alive so I retreat. On my return trip, the druid respawns and, guided by his sense of revenge, shoots me instead of the zombie. I take 26 damage on the first hit and get downed. Having 7 resistance sucks.

I buy a ring that gives me +3 max hp.

I go to Fury Lands map. I kill the ogre N-N-W, killing wolves on my way. Then, I head towards the city at the centre. While I fight the squirrels on the way, wolves respawn. I kill the squirrels before the wolves reach me, but I did not take out any wolf and they're all on me now. They kill me before I realise I should run. I die to fricking tier 1 wolves.

10/10 fun challenge. I recommend.
