Got the game because of this thread, and I've been enjoying it so far.

Then I made the mistake of playing on 1980s mode...

Seeing as we're talking about the Imp:

The Imp owns. He is MVP of my 1980s run right now, that AoE sleep is the difference between "get beaten down horribly" and "spend 15 minutes grinding down these random mobs".

He...unfortunately doesn't get that much else good to be honest. But I have seen him actually heal from getting stabbed by physical attacks, so there's that.

Or you can go for poetic justice.

Those illusions are vulnerable to sleep, so you can turn right back around and ruin Myles' day with status effects whilst beating him down furiously.

Mind you, this fight is still horrible.

Energy Control and Agility for everyone.

Max energy control now, agility for later.

Unless random encounters don't get as stupid on normal.

The Imp supposedly gets an arcane DOT if his sample skills in the party select are to be believed.

If you're playing 1980s mode (don't!) you're pretty much required to start with the Imp to use his sleep spell to not die on floor 1.

Don't play 1980s mode.

It's not as bad as you'd think, but PS fights in general are irritating slogs and it's impossible to tell where on this goddamn level you are at any given time.


Seconded on the irritating slogs. Every fight has far too much padded sumo.

I got the impression the Sorcerer was competent when someone ticked him off but was mostly coasting on his magic the entire time.
