Again a very likpatous story

Is "there" somewhere other than the top of Istory Falls?

There's a small indent in the Great Sea Trench you can walk into that recharges the lamp, so most of them have been grinding there.

And DD decided to do Istory Falls before the Trench, and the funny part is Magus is at the Falls too, so people are going to think DD has caught up when in reality he's a dungeon behind. :v:

It's actually pretty close now.

Magus in first, DD actually not that far behind since he did the grinding earlier and got insane luck, pux in third having just finished grinding, and HappySquid is a dead shell of a squid with absolutely no hope for even pretending to catch up :smith:

And DD is officially in FIRST thanks to Magus forgetting to buy hi potions before entering the Rift.

His retarded strategy has somehow actually succeeded :psyduck:

EDIT: Scratch that, he FORGOT TO UNSEAL THE REMAINING WEAPONS

Magus is up to Necro, puwexil is at Twintania, Squid just finished with Leviathan & DD's on Halicarnassus. If Magus' luck holds like it has throughout his run he should be done within an hour, but there's no way he can be that lucky three times in a run...

e: it just might, DD's Wonder Rod missed on an attempted Toading to dodge Giga Flare.

He just reset too so he has to do a boss fight all over again in ADDITION to Twintania.

Meanwhile Squid is on the 4th tablet, maybe he'll finish before midnight :smith:

Not necessarily. Puwexil just beat Necrophobe too. All it would take is for eLmaGus to wipe once.
