Yeah, you'll mostly get Counter and a few spells, but havng a good Paladin with Aegis makes counter kind of useless, and your INT is too low for a decent damage with magic, so is not really that useful... but is extremely cool anyway.

Working on the next batch of videos. They should be ready in a couple of hours. In the meantime, let's have a look at the party! I've been doing some off-screen crafting to get people geared up.
Pirate shirt (lolwut) and a pair of katanas. Pepe is rocking with the most hit points, best AC, best thac0 and highest flat damage output.
Phoenix is beginning to catch up with Pepe, but still rolls shitty hit points. Swapping her longsword +1 for an Axe +2 has brought her damage and armor pen up to par with pepe.
Azira's struggling a bit in our current lineup. His assassins blade +1's simply aren't doing enough damage to bypass the DEF of most opponents, leading to a lot of "1 damage" hits. He also has the worst AC, hit points and thac0 of our front line. Getting him some better stats is a priority, because at the moment, he's mostly just a punching bag.
Orange currently isn't doing much except throwing out the occasional heal. The level 2 heal spells aren't terribly exciting so far. If we can get hold of a decent staff for her, she can start throwing out some attacks from the rear.
...Yeah.
Our trapspringer and back-up wizard. His Fear EXE +1 is the only anti-supernatural weapon we currently posess. Since PSI and WIZ share casting attribute, his 3 Firework spells from the wizard multiclass hit pretty hard.
Afro Samurai picked up a +2 staff so he can contribute with attacks without using spell slots. HIs firework/windwork spells are pretty boss. Also works as our back-up healer.

I find amusing that you navigated throught all that go up/go down maze on lv 2 & 3 and found the switch before even finding the locked door. o_O

It's a mystary 
I think we're past the days where a developer will put something into a dungeon that you don't need to use/explore. And I'm quite concerned over being penetrated by a Mantii's ovipositor. I know enough about insect reproductive patterns to know where this is going.

Except that isn't happening in the case of the above species. With what little we know, and as there are no (known) records, we must rely on assumptions. For instance - we can assume that, due to the size of the insect and its obvious aggression, it is unlikely that eggs would be transferred in a single stab and more likely to be injected in a host that has been subdued. The gestation of the larvae would probably have be very fast, as the Mantii are known to mortally wound their prey, so it's doubtful a host would survive much long, or if all after an attack. Or of course it could be that the ovipositor has degenerated into just being an organ used for the injection of poison or simply for stabbing prey, making all said above redundant.
Ulminati, you must aquire more data!

Sure, why not. I promised to write something for someone, so I need some failure to keep my creative juices flowing now that I'm scraping the bottom of the whisky bottle.
Azira dying every single fight, even when defending, and the resulting "FFS" should provide more than ample failure.

I see the levelup to level 3 was kinder on my avatar. I might even survive longer this way. I only hope I'll also turn useful at some point, other than as a punching bag. 
Well, my non-LP party hit level 5, and our ninja - Bee - is rocking with a pair of +3 brofists. I really just need to get you something better than the assassin blades since they do bugger all damage and poison isn't all that useful.
Zetor
Arcane
Keep in mind that ninja (and archers) have the option to hide and assassinate / surprise attack any enemy group, too. I leave it to you to decide how useful that can be. 
You mean he hasn't had my character hide when that was a perfectly viable option all along? 
Zetor
Arcane
Ninja get that ability at like... level 7? Just try to make it until then without permadying.You mean he hasn't had my character hide when that was a perfectly viable option all along?
Yeah, well, let's see how that goes. The hp gain at level three was somewhat comforting.

God I look like a sexually-confused Christmas present
What, you mean you aren't? 
I'll be streaming, chatting and listening to trance in a few minutes.
It appears the let's play save didn't save, so I'll be retreading familiar territory.
Lack of multiple save slots is the biggest failing of this game.

Lots of talky-talky this time.
Second video is uploadan as I post this. It should be online in 10 mins.
Don't worry. Next mission involves us going to a new dungeon.
Anyway, at the end of this update, everyone's levelled and equipped like this:
Level 4 gave Pepe access to dual-wielding main-hand weapons. We promptly replaced his sub-katana for another main katana and gave it some upgrades. He keeps rolling well on hit points.
Phoenix has 3 different weapons with various enchantments at the moment. The axe is strong vs wind element enemies (mantii, vorpal bunnies) and demihumans (goblins, hobgoblins, trolls). The lance is strong vs. supernatural (poltergeists and slimes) and has reach. The sword is strong vs. fire type creatures, which the axe is weak against. The lance was actually made for orange until I realized she couldn't equip it.
Azira is still trailing behind everyone. I upgraded one of his +1 Assassin blades to a +5 Psycho Dagger in the hopes that'll make him able to damage things. We have some decent armor waiting for him once he hits level 5. But it feels a loooong way off at the moment.
Orange got a pair of totally Kawaii angel wings that lets her levitate the party. ^__^
I also upgraded her Vitality instead of Piety this level because she only gets 3-5 hp per level atm.
Afro Samurai, the Sorceror of Soul, got himself a totally stylin' pimp hat that gives +int. I also upgraded his pimp cane to +5. Not that he needs it, since his rap magic lets him bust mad rhymes for hours on end.
And poor Absalammi continues his descent into questionable heterosexuality with a leather cap the kind of which you normally see on gay bikers with crotchless pants. But at least it gives him +int. He also got a new EXE that has a chance of causing confusion on hit. A better debuff than fear.

Dang, my character sucks. Getting some replacement armor for the beginner stuff should help though. I hope.

You just grind in that Babel sphere for those three levels. I'm sure it won't be painful. Much.
