So I am thinking of a few possible themed runs at origins.

100+ HP run - basically everyone in the party has to build to have at least 100 hp. Note this may nerf parts of other character classes but that is part of the fun. Might also make this a no spell healing run as well :-).

Decoy Duck Run - This is where we only do ranged attacks with decoy ducks at improvised thrown weapons, (pending a ruling).

Retribution Rally - Entire party is not allowed to use melee or ranged attacks, spells ok retribution damage for the win. This might kinda get boring but I think it would be funny as hell.

Green uncommon only run, perhaps on Hardcore?

How did the turkey leg run go?

We died in the last room do to not doing enough damage to the queen. As a templar cleric I had 7 crits through the dungeon but only 3 on the queen it just wasn't enough damage to finish her on hardcore. Maybe turkey legs wasn't the best choice for a weapon :-).

Green hardcore would be interesting but I am having flashbacks to my bloody nightmare run and just makes me a little shocked :-).

Funny, Fiddy and I just today started talking about a them run (or two).

I'm in. The turkey leg run was awesome.

100 hp - Great idea. Will have to see if I can get there with the tokens I have. Probably?

Duck run - Are Underducks allowed? I have several of those :)

Retribution - Wouldn't do it unless I can get a Belt of Thorns for super cheap (or borrow one). You guys had awesome builds though.

I would like to see an anti-magic run with zero spell casting allowed. It is great to see 12 sliders on the board every round. Should be doable on Nightmare too.

Generally I prefer runs which let me use my best tokens, but I'm intrigued with the 100hp run. I can get my elf wizard to 101 hp. My spell damage is less, but i can do it. I could get to 103hp if I'd give up the charm of avarice, but i have to draw the line somewhere.

That is crazy talk.

Getting there shouldn't be too bad. I got a barbarian up to 146 just playing around in the app.

Yay! If I swap out my Bracers of Fast Fitness for a Charm Bracelet and add the Charm of Health, I can also add MEC and still cut myself. I still have 100hp, so I have more blood to spill.

Kirk Bauer and I talked about another 7 token challenge run. And maybe dropping it to 6 this time.

Knowing what is in the dungeon I do think you would need to drop it. I might be up for another....even if I have to be the brick wall again (anyone dies I am taking your weapon).

That said Fiddy and I will be looking for a team to kill a Nightmare Draccus by HP. We have a plan that we will discuss elsewhere. The general plan is to build a team that will kill the Draccus by doing enough damage to it. We don't care about other rooms and can even die in the last. I will throw up a post for it shortly.
