i don't want to imagine berserked orb guardians while being surrounded
I found a potion of experience in the depth , brought me to level 24
Here my character finally found the way to the realm of Zot
I think he can win, he has the potential for it, having survived several very though battles (sometime managed to flee with very few health) unless stupid bad luck suddenly happen.
But not the potential for postgame, too far from max skills nearly required to cast something like firestorm or similar due to my focus on many magic schools that were needed by diverses spells.

Message History
Still sad that in the whole game i found 0 demon whip, i saw many demon weapons but not a single whip version, because it is conveniently a demon whip that was needed in a trove.
The fun anecdote is that i accidentally went into a Ziggurat (i found 2) , because i was expecting a message telling me what how much money was needed to enter that ziggurat, and there was no message, i directly went in, i guess that's something new to have Ziggurat for free, not bad as they were nearly out of price in the past in case you were buying stuff in shops, you could usually say goodbye to zigs
Though i had no intention to get inside and was happy they didn't removed the portals to get out
Looking on the events logged in the dump file, looks like i got several very near death situations
21899 | Lair:7 | HP: 1/68 [wolf (7)]
32995 | Lair:7 | HP: 1/75 [death yak (22)]
36960 | Lair:8 | HP: 3/80 [death yak (20)]
84992 | Shoals:5 | HP: 3/107 [alligator snapping turtle (35)]
124244 | Vaults:5 | HP: 1/130 [frost giant/bolt of cold (17)]
(this one was during the big hard battle in the north corridor of the Vaults:5 i mentionned in a previous post)
