The Maze of Madness

This is the last Gianthold one I can do solo.

• Return to Madstone Crater - need to protect priests
• Return to Prison of the Planes - final battle is in a confined room
• The Crucible - final battle is in a confined room
• Foundation of Discord - elementals respawn, possibly could do by ignoring or getting all elementals to the other side of the room then rush in and snipe bad guy, DD out?

Maze of Madness is a bit hard due to fairly restricted battlegrounds and the first few fights Dimension Door back doesn't break lock.

1. skip the first agent of insanity
2. use the "jump up on top of the walls" trick to skip most of the maze
3. kill the final boss; he's tough cause he's a caster and can do Burning Blood (which I can't heal fast enough) and Wisdom ability drain (then I can't cast spells)
4. trigger the first agent, run out and on top of the walls, come back and kill at leisure
5. pretty much the same for third agent, trigger, DD out, climb on walls and come back, kill

Lost in the Swamp

Solo [Deep Gnome Wizard] (L30 R10 D8), no optionals, 2 hours

This was fairly easy.

• The "shoot reaper, dimension door, reaper dies" trick still works.
• Everything is easy to kill. Vine horrors and elementals slow so you can shoot+retreat.
• Wolves are annoying because hidden + on top of you really fast.
• Ignore north-west area optionals must save at least an hour.
• In the final fight you can jump on the cliff or a pillar and are extremely safe there.
