Hello everyone! This is the start of the new edition on my blog, PGMRCTW. It’s quite long, I know but I couldn’t think of a better one. Anyway, for this post, I will write about… Shields!(of course) To use these, press z on your keyboard and tada! You now learnt how to block using shields. First of all, shields. Shields are very useful, especially the magical shields which are my favorite. Well, the normal ones, not so much (except when used in fashion) there are 2 types of shields as I wrote above, they are:
Magical Shields & Normal Shields
Firstly, let’s talk about magical shields… Magical Shields provide not only to block attacks but also to inflict curse and damage to enemies. Keep in mind though, it will also inflict curses on you if used incorrectly (shielding without any reason, or failing to block an attack) They also block magical damages but can only block the element imbued in the shield. Anyway, my strategy is that you have to learn the enemies’ ways of attacking, for example, the kobolds provide a small amount of time before the damage happens so in a case like that, you will have a chance to block the attack. When you block too early in front of an enemy, don’t release your block because once you do, the enemy in front can hit you. Also, take note that enemies can hit you on the back, you can only block enemies in front of you. I recommend trying to use magical shields without weapons on a stage run/tower run. Once you adapt to the enemies’ ways of attacking in that dice game stage, try to do it again. Now for my challenge:
spongy’s Magical Shield Run Challenge
For this challenge, you will have to use magical shields. Do a tower run on any tower/dice game stage. Here are my rankings on each tower/dice game stage:
Dice Game Stage 1- 1*
Dice Game Stage 2- 3*
Dice Game Stage 3- 4*
Dice Game Stage 4- 2*
Dice Game Stage 5- 5*
Dice Game Stage 6- 5*
Dice Game Stage 7- 6*
Dice Game Stage 8- 8*
Dice Game Stage 9- 8*
Dice Game Stage 10- 6*
Dice Game Stage 11- 5*
Dice Game Stage 12- 6*
Dice Game Stage 13- 7*
Dice Game Stage 14- 5*
Dice Game Stage 15- 6*
Dice Game Stage 16- 0*
Dice Game Stage 17- 7*
Dice Game Stage 18- 3*
Dice Game Stage 19- 8*
Dice Game Stage 20- 8*
Dice Game Stage 21- 7*
Dice Game Stage 22- 5*
The number of stars represents the difficulty level I gave in that particular tower/dice game stage. I also recommend using the shield with the same element of the tower/dice game stage (of course, using the opposing element can also help, in terms of damage but cannot block magic attacks). Here are the rules:
- You must use magical shields.
- You must not use weapons or bring pets.
- You must not use damaging/harming/injuring magics you can however use healing magics.
- Damaging items are not allowed to be used.
Here are what you should do:
- Try to kill enemies with your magical shield/s and count how many you have killed. Please note defeating the same enemies does not count.
- Try to count how many times you’ve been cursed because of misuse of your shield/s.
- Have fun and follow the rules.
Now, let’s talk about the normal shields. They work similar to magical shields but does not inflict anything so it’s safe and at the same time, useless against magic damages. Same advice but you can shield anytime you want.
Anyway, I’m going to end it here so sayonara! 。◕‿◕。
