Re: The Crucible
The crucible is really easy if you can figure out a few tricks. I just did it drunk in 411 secs, by myself. I used The Daichi (which is relatively easy to get, and probably the best weapon in the game) and was purely agressive in all rounds. For the first 5, I just ran up to where all the foes spawned and started swinging. Most die in 1 or 2 hits. For the highwaymen (rnd 6 I think), I just stayed in the middle and ran over the boxes that make fire as often as I could- pushing most of them over the edge. Kill the ones in the middle first and then use a Flintlock Rifle (preferably Master) to pick off the few remaining along the outside. The next rnd with the Balverines is really easy if you have a Raise Dead spell (preferably lvl 5). Charge up and release the spell before you step into the light. Once you start the rnd, the balverines will only go for the ghosts and it's really easy to kill em. Before starting the final rnd with the troll, release your highest lvl Time Control. Pause, and change your spell to your highest lvl Inferno (preferably lvl 5). Start the rnd and run as close as you can to the troll. Charge up the Inferno and release it into the ground. The troll should still be only halfway out of the ground and will probably kill him instantly. My first attempt with this method was done in 9 secs.
