    Gladitorial Arena, Round 1(lvl9)(v1.14)
    #Maps: 3
    Difficulty: 5
    General Advice: None

    Map 1: Gladitorial Arena Battle # 4(?)

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: Black Ooze, 2x Trog Gouger, Lizardmen Cleric

    Attempts: 1
    Difficulty: 5
    Suggestions: Make sure to bring some non-crushing damage for the ooze. Also, if able, focus fire one of the 2 top enemies down first turn to avoid lizardman cleric stepping in. Make use of trogs starting with back from you (non-fuctional armor from behind) - so middle trog is a good start if you can back it up with some penetrating, or otherwise you'll just have him hop off the vp grid. Win/Win.

    Map 2: Gladitorial Arena Battle # 5(?)

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: Miriam Sanctar - Human Priest (19/14/Run), Tall Beech Tree (21/23/Walk), 3x Kobold Avenger

    Attempts: 1
    Difficulty: 5
    Suggestions: Target priest with long ranged casts, unless you can kill off an avenger quickly. Stay away from the slow tree, make sure you're mobile so you can end turn with at least contested spots. Keep killing 1 mob per round and you'll win in no time.

    Map 3: Gladitorial Arena Battle # 6(?)

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: Lumbrezz the Mad - Human Wizard (16/13/Run), Holloborn the Nimble - Elf Warrior (19/15/Dash), Vingus Stoneblessed - Dwarf Priest (23/16/Walk)

    Attempts: 1
    Difficulty: 5
    Suggestions: Warrior seems aggressive, take him on first, then the mage (dont stay too close in formation for his arcing spark). Priest is toughest (heavy armor, lots of heals and bashes).

    #Maps: 6

    The Vicious Tombs (lvl10)(v1.14)
    #Maps: 3
    Difficulty: 6
    General Advice: Make sure to bring gear to manage the two immunity types!

    Map 1: the Dripping Grave

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: 4x Black Ooze, Armored Skeleton

    Attempts: 2
    Difficulty: 7
    Suggestions: Difficult monster combo, bringing acid, dissolve armor et c can help unless you're packing penetrating attacks. Chop is great vs ooze, but useless vs skeleton.

    Map 2: Oozing Cavern

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: 2x Black Ooze, 2x Yellow Pudding (M18/27/Walk)

    Attempts: 1
    Difficulty: 5

    Map 3: Burnt Pudding

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: 3x Yellow Pudding, 2x Burning Skeleton

    Attempts: 2
    Difficulty: 6
    Suggestions: Top niche can be a good place to huddle, try to get as much damage on skeletons until puddings reach you.

    #Maps: 3
    Difficulty: 5
    General Advice: Feel like BBQ? I hear wood burn well...

    Map 1: Stand of Maples

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: 2x Young Maple Tree, Stout Maple Tree (20/25/Walk), 2x Forest Spider (M15/ 14/Run)

    Attempts: 1
    Difficulty: 4
    Suggestions: Pretty easy, kill off spiders before they reach you - the trees are running scared, so pick them off with range.

    Map 2: Beech Copse

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: 2x Beech Tree, Stout Maple Tree, Tall Beech Tree

    Attempts: 1
    Difficulty: 5

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: Tall Beech Tree, 3x Forest Spider, 2x Sparkler

    Attempts: 2
    Difficulty: 6
    Suggestions: If you can get the Tall Beach Tree down quickly, do so and stay in the middle ring - otherwise run away to fight another day, killing off the spiders before going back.

    Goblins in the Woods (lvl11)(1.14)
    #Maps: 4
    Difficulty: 5,5 (medium)
    General Advice: New dangerous foes.

    Map 1: Goblin Outpost

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: 2x Goblin Hulk, 3x Goblin Grunt, 2x Goblin Shaman

    Attempts: 1
    Difficulty: 5
    Suggestions: Hulks are slow and minions (so only one attack per hulk!). Grunts before Hulks and lastly shaman was what worked for me.

    Map 2: Spiderwebs

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: 3x Goblin Shredders (19/20/Run). 3x Forest Spiders

    Goblin Shredders: 3+ Shredding Strike, 2+ Reflect Missile, 2+ Peforating Strike, 2+ Penetrating Stab, 4+ Missile Block, Quick Reactions, 2+ Impaling Stab

    Attempts: 1
    Difficulty: 6
    Suggestions: Nasty armor removal and magic negation by Shredders. Use walls if you have access to them and block (or damage) off some enemies so you don't have to handle them all at once - possibly at the opening at the top of the map and/or just above the starting position.

    Map 3: Quiet Glade

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: 2 individual Goblin Bezerker (25/20/Run), 2x Goblin Grunt
    Goblin Bezerker: Blind Rage, extra run, Strong Chop, Massive Chop, Unstoppable Chop, Wild Run, Powerful Hack, Chop, Raging Strike

    Attempts: 1
    Difficulty 5
    Suggestions: Bezerkers are nasty, but lack any kind of armor - taking them out at range is highly suggested.

    Map 4: Grunt Patrol

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: 3 packs of 3x Goblin Grunts, 1x Goblin Hulk

    Attempts: 2
    Difficulty 6
    Suggestions: Try bottlenecking a bridge (I chose the lower one) - chopping and area spells are useful vs grunts. Beware the big guy if you get swarmped by the minions - he will kill you if you don't finish them off fast enough.

    Premium: Descent to the Core (lvl11)(v1.14)
    #Maps: 3
    Difficulty: 6
    Suggestions: If you have completed Premium: Order of the Core you should have a cleansing diamond (or might have gotten one randomly), would suggest packing that for the huge amount of tile damage. Otherwise, mobility is king.

    Map 1: Wisp Laboratory

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: Practiced Geomancer (19/25/Walk), 2x Apprentice Geomancer, 2x Ethereal Wisp (13/12/Teleport Self)

    Practiced Geomancer: Hover, 2+ Lava Pool, 2+ Cave In, Teleport Other, 2+ Acid Pool, Rockfall, 2+ Blooming Ground, Paralyzing Bolt

    Ethereal Wisp: 2+ Deadly Spark, extra Teleport Self, 3+ Devastating Spark, Missile Block, Reflect Missile, Powerful Spark

    Attempts:1
    Difficulty: 5
    Suggestions: Mobility/cleansing/range wins the day.

    Map 2: Ritual Antechamber

    Enemies: Practiced Geomancer, 2x Novice Geomancer, 4x Trog Scuttler

    [​IMG]

    Attempts:1
    Difficulty: 6
    Suggestions: Mobility/cleansing/range wins the day. Using stone walls to limit LoS is also a good idea, I finished most of the scuttlers while harrying the geomancers.

    Map 3: Ritual Core

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: Practiced Geomancer, 2x Apprentice Geomancer, 3x Novice Geomancer

    Attempts:1
    Difficulty: 7
    Suggestions: Without Resistant Hide, Good mobility and possibly ground cleansing this would be a true pain in the A. Had to replay due to forgetting the screenshot for the last part (at least one char was lower on actual beating).

    Pools of Slime (lvl11)(v1.14)
    #Maps: 3
    Difficulty: 6.5
    Suggestions: Lots of crushing immunity. Go for /or losblock jellies - as they are ranged.

    Map 1: Bad Jelly

    [​IMG]

    Enemies 4x Black Ooze, Green Jelly (20/19/Walk)

    Green Jelly: Acid Blast, 3+ Blob of Slime, Death Meld, Vulnerable, Mud Pit, 2+ Amorphous Body

    Attempts: 2
    Difficulty: 7
    Suggestion: Walling Green Jelly (for los) and some of the oozes might save you some time to kill of a few. Chops cam work if you like the crowded route.

    Map 2: Glistening Tunnels

    [​IMG]

    Enemies 2x Black Ooze, 2x Yellow Puddings, Green Jelly

    Attempts: 1
    Difficulty: 6
    Suggestion: If you can finish off the green slime early do so, I rushed him and killed him first - making it a lot easier.

    Map 3: Coffins of Slime

    [​IMG]

    Enemies Green Jelly, 3 Yellow Puddings, 4x Zombies

    Attempts: 2
    Difficulty: 7
    Suggestion: Rush green jelly and kill him off, then pick off the puddings or the zombies - just make sure you don't get surrounded. Potential great use of chops.

    Premium: Temple of Scales (lvl12)(v1.14)
    #Maps: 4
    Difficulty: 6
    Suggestions: Mobility, walling and ranged

    Map 1: Secrets of the Jungle Lizards

    [​IMG]

    Enemies 4x Lizardman Warrior, 4x Lizardman Darter
    Attempts: 2
    Difficulty: 7
    Suggestion: Slightly rough one, mobs are very mobile (and has reach) so unless you are (and have reach) you might be in for some trouble. If you can outmaneuver them by walling or picking up off a few and keep a running ranged fight, you will win eventually.


    Map 2: Before the Temple Ssthek

    [​IMG]

    Enemies 3x Lizardman Darter, 2x Lizardman Netter, Lizardman Priest

    Attempts: 1
    Difficulty: 6
    Suggestion: Use mobilty and LoS to win (netters start in a vulnerable position, use it) - seems you don't need to kill everyone to get enough VP's.

    Map 3: Dome of Heads

    [​IMG]

    Enemies 2x Lizardman Darter, Four-Headed Hydra (31/23/Walk)

    Four-Headed Hydra: 2+ Fiery Breath, 2+ Eyes Anywhere, 2+ Four-Headed Bite, 3+ Infected Bite, Clumsy

    Attempts: 1
    Difficulty: 6
    Suggestion: Whoaah, a firespitting multibiting hydra! Not that hard unless you go totally toe to to due to it not having any reach attacks and crap mobility. However, it has a cone, a crazy aoe attack and a non-directional block. If you get your darters in between yourself and the hydra, you can luck out and have him cone them for you. BBQ-Profit.

    Map 4: Dome of Heads

    [​IMG]

    Enemies 5x Lizardman Darter, Green Jelly, Lizardman, Lizardman Cleric

    Attempts: 1
    Difficulty: 6
    Suggestions: If you have mobility and maybe a wall or two, this won't be THAT hard - just make sure to put the hurtin' on the Green Jelly asap, while keeping away from approaching darters and LoS'ing the Cleric.

    the Tomb Of Tvericus (lvl12)(v1.14)
    #Maps: 4
    Difficulty: 6
    Comments: Very varied monster types, as usual with undead - some crushing immunity.

    Map 1: Graveyard

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: 2 packs of 5x Zombie

    Attempts: 1
    Difficulty: 6
    Suggestions: Keep together, killing off as many zombies before they shuffle up to you. If you manage to open a hole in the meatwall a running fight will make it simple.

    Map 2: Mausoleum

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: 2 individual Armored Skeletons

    Attempts: 1
    Difficulty: 5
    Suggestions: Bring crushing attacks and armor negation, avoid huddling up if possible due to chops.

    Map 3: Narthex

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: 4x Skeleton Warrior, 3x Festering Zombie

    Attempts: 3
    Difficulty: 7
    Suggestions: Every attempt here is close calls - beat it on third due to being able to switching in bashes and crushing attacks vs skeletons, also telekinesis, force bolts, walls (either damage or blocking helps greatly). Mobility to reach the vp squares turn 1 are crucial.

    Map 4: Tomb of Tvericus

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: Tvericus (38/25/Walk) 3x Skeleton Warrior, 5x Zombie

    Tvericus: 2+ Run, 2+ Only Bones, 4+ Powerful Bludgeon, Trained Bludgeon, 2+ Mighty Bludgeon, Clumsy

    Attempts: 1
    Difficulty: 6
    Suggestions: Tvericus hits like a truck and then backs over you again, and again. Just make sure to keep him away from you - keep your wizard at him, while picking off his minions (skeletons first, as they're fastest). Wall (damage or block) is useful.

    Tree Forts of the Goblin King(Lvl12)(v1.14)
    #Maps: 3
    Difficulty:6
    Comments: Limited movement, so hard to get in range of the ranged on first two maps.

    Map 1: Light Brigade

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: 2x Goblin Shredder, 4x Sparkler

    Attempts: 2
    Difficulty: 6
    Suggestions: Restart due to wrong loadout - having raging strike on this one is a baaaad idea. Bring loads of blocks, resistant hide on wizard and have patience. Kill off shredders with ground effects if possible, then hunt down sparklers with your resistant mage.

    Map 2: Platform Guards

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: Goblin Berzerker, 2x Goblin Hulk, 2x Goblin Shredder

    Attempts: 2
    Difficulty: 6
    Suggestions: Finish off the Berzerker before he gets to you (hopefully he has raging strikes on hand when your wizard nukes him - profit!), make sure to push him back with bashes, telekinesis or force bolts


    Map 3: Goblin King

    [​IMG]
    (new screen with new party, due to Goblin King model missing in previous one)

    Enemies: Guztuk - Goblin King (28/23/Run), Kazhak - Goblin Shaman (18/21/Walk), 2x Goblin Shredders

    Attempts: 1
    Difficulty: 6
    Suggestions: Kite the king, while killing of the shredders. DON'T hit the king when he has martyr's blessing on him - lethal combo with priests spell setup. LoS'in the priest and finishing of the king behind the tree if able.

    Shrine of the Astral Guardians (Lvl13)(v1.14)
    #Maps: 3
    Difficulty: 5
    Comments: Ben Lee, you're one good dude - those chess pieces are awesome. Also, last adventure I completed before getting my own account, hence ye aulde party.

    Map 1: Hall of the Dawn

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: 3x Guardian of Mist (23/24/Shuffle)

    Guardian of Mist: 4+ Penetrating Bolt, 3+ Devastating Spark, extra Shuffle, 3+ Powerful Spark, 2+ Mighty Spark, Cruide Plates, 3+ Deadly Spark, Clumsy

    Attempts: 1
    Difficulty: 4
    Suggestions: If you bring a mobile team (req double move draw or sprints) that can take a few hits, this is an easy win. If you can contest/push out (use crude plates to your advantage et c)the bottom left guardian first turn and have your third (tank or resistant hide wizard) take the middle to scare off the runaway one. No need to kill anything, just stay alive and keep them away and it's a simple quick win.

    Map 2: Hall of the Sun

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: 2x Guardian of Mist, 2 individual Guardian of Shadow (25/21/Shuffle)

    Guardian of Shadow: Clumsy, 5+ Spark, 3+ Block, 4+ Rook Blast

    Attempts: 1
    Difficulty: 6
    Suggestions: Ouch, note to self - do not engage Guardian of Shadows in straight lines (unless your an use it to your advantage (think nice blocking and other enemies in target) due to those crazy Rook Blasts. Also, having walls (blocking or damage) is great! Dropped one on first turn who blocked LoS for all top 3 guardians which gave me time to move about a bit.

    Map 3: Hall of the Dusk

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: 2x Guardian of Mist, 2 individual Guardian of Motes (28/21/Shuffle)

    Guardian of Motes: Cave In, Spark, Acid Jet, 5+ Bishop Blast, extra shuffle

    Attempts: 2
    Difficulty: 6
    Suggestions: Watch for the diagonal rook attacks as well as plenty of aoe's (acid and cave ins), get in close (mobility!) - avoid standing diagonally, cleansing ground could be useful.

    The Jewel of Alet Zhav (Lvl13)(v1.17)
    #Maps: 4
    Difficulty: 5
    Comments: Mixed bag of (f)undead makes for a good introduction of some new friends. Second map is real nice survival horror.

    Map 1: Burning Temple

    Enemies: 2 packs of 2x Burning Skeleton

    [​IMG]

    Attempts: 1
    Difficulty: 5
    Suggestions: Dont forget bashing immunity, and watch for fireball - LoSdeny.

    Map 2: Zombie Pit

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: 3 packs of 4x Zombie

    Attempts: 1
    Difficulty: 5
    Suggestions: Clear a path as to not get surrounded and back into northeastern top niche, bringing bashes and pushpacks is helpful. If you bring a lot of chopping, staying in the middle CAN work - but the number of Brains! makes it very dangerous.

    Map 3: Antechamber

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: 1 Muscular Zombie (23/29/Walk), 2x Festering Zombie, 5x Zombie

    Attempts:2
    Difficulty: 6
    Comments: Introducing the dapper Muscular Zombie - which packs a punch and has step cards, beware!

    Map 4: Tomb of Alet Zhav

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: 1 Muscular Zombie, 1 Festering Zombie, Alet Zhav (20/20/Run), 2x Skeleton Warrior

    Attempts:1
    Difficulty: 5
    Comments: All but Skeleton Warrior are non-minions, meaning dangerous amount of attacks.

    Premium: High Mountain Pass (lvl13)(v1.17)
    #Maps: 4
    Difficulty: 6
    Comments: Playtime with lots of big lumbering ogres - and hordes of goblins! Terrain features (and ogre's Mindless Battlerage) are your friend.

    Map 1: Mountain Road

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: 2x Mottled Ogre (31/20/Walk), 2 packs of 5x Goblin Grunt

    Attempts:1
    Difficulty: 4
    Comments: If you can keep the slow ogres away - which shouldn't be to hard with all the difficult terrain, it's a cakewalk. Another option can be pack parries and block and go toe to toe, until all goblins are smashed by ogres.

    Map 2: Boulder Ambush

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: 1 Ogre Bruiser (40/23/Walk), 2 packs of 4x Goblin Grunt, 3x Goblin Shredder

    Attempts:1
    Difficulty: 5
    Comments: Same as above, with the difference of mindless battlerage - perfect if you can get ogre standing behind goblins - ensue fire works.

    Map 3: Ogre Lookouts

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: 1 Ogre Bruiser, 1 Ogre Magicker (25/20/Walk), 4x Goblin Grunt, 4x Goblin Shredder

    Attempts:3
    Difficulty: 7
    Comments: Pretty Rough combination of mobs, if possible, take out grunts with some firewall/hot spots first 1-2 round and inflict heavy damage on shredders that get crowded with bruiser. Nasty curses from magicker.

    Map 4: Ogre Lair

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: 2x Mottled Ogres, 1 Ogre Magicker, 5x Goblin Grunt, 4x Goblin Shredder

    Attempts:5
    Difficulty: 8
    Comments: Ouch! Handling the shredders are key here - 2 large group of mobs with lots of blocks to rinse out. Big guys are slow!

    #Maps: 2
    Difficulty: 5.5
    Comments: Positioning and mobilty is key vs the "chess piece" types, as is all kind of pushbacks and wall spells.

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: 2i Guardian of Shadows, 2i Guardian of Motes

    Attempts:2
    Difficulty: 6
    Comments: A positional VP race - bringing telekinesis (and any other enemy directionals), cleansing ground will win you the day. AVOID diagonals for motes, and straight lines for shadows.

    Comments: Walls can be helpful, some dangerous ranged mobs. Map 3+ after update 1.18.

    Map 1: Servants' Quarters

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: 4x Servant, 2x Mercenary, 2x Marksman (15/21/Run)

    Attempts:3
    Difficulty: 7
    Comments: If you can block the corridor with a stone wall that's a game winner - as you can kill servants before heading for the mercenaries and marksmen. Also, useful to have lots of blocks!

    Map 2: Kitchen

    [​IMG]

    Enemies: Chief Garcotto (25/20/Run), 2x Servant, War Dog (20/22/Run)

    Attempts:1

    Attempts:1
    Difficulty: 5
    Comments: Crazy blocks on the hardened mercenary - can steal your cards, so make sure to use step cards to attack from the back. Both are non-minions, so they're potentially dangerous as long as servants has cards left.
