Oh man, so close. That's harsh! I've yet to try and solo Forest V. After this week of bonuses, which include reduced brewing time on potions, I think I'll be ready to make a run for the Dark Chambers.
If you didn't have to heal yourself so often I'll wager you would have taken him down, even one potion less might have done it. Ouch. For a Fierce Dark Wizard I'm surprised his stamina was so low for forest chamber 5. I'm thinking 'Fierce' is the operative word here. I recently had a similar battle where the clock was ticking and I knew I would have time, but failed to account for possible dodges which ruined everything.
@Osprey1 I noticed you weren't using your proficiency charm. You can get bonuses to Power and Defence when you carry 2 enhancements into battle with a few green book skills. I burn a pair of Potent Invigorating Potions with every Chamber I engage. I'm guessing you're already aware of this, and just waiting for more events to fill those skills.
I hope you weren't offended by my reply, I think I caught some sarcasm in your last and realized I may have come across a little harsh. If so, my apologies, certainly not my intention. Just trying to be engaging.
For example, I ignored the proficiency charm thinking what good would it ****, I only had one pixie. I hadn't thought about the 2 or more enhancements.
After checking I haven't taken advantage of a 2 or more boost and I'm still sitting at +5 for 1 or more.
But now that you have said that I will have to look at where I spend RSBs more carefully.
@ZookiTabooki I wrote a reply and it disappeared (into moderation?) regardless I didn't interpret your post as harsh in any way and I continue to invite constructive feedback so I can do better next time.
I hadn't thought about that value of my proficiency charm in that way. Currently I have only 1 or more enhancement skills but it may change how I use RSB in the future.
That was me yesterday while trying to solo Forest Chamber III!!! I was probably 1 hit away from defeating the last Irkling and I ran out of time. I need to remember to use 1 or ever 2 Strong Invigoration Draughts at the start so I can place a Protection Charm on myself and the Deterioration Hex on every foe. Or, find a Magizoologist that can bring me to life every time I'm knocked out! ☺️
Inspired by @Osprey1 and a handful of no.5 runestones, yesterday I decided to break into the dark chambers. I was overloaded with potions and needed to clear space anyways. I had previously already cleared Forest chamber 2, so I started with chamber 3. I was able to clear 3 and 4 and while battling chamber 5, ran out of healing potions. I got knocked out, only had 3 min. left on the timer with 1.5 elites left to go. The knockout timer was one minute long which I knew was more than I could overcome so I gave it up. I did walk away with a pair of red books so, not a total loss.
mental note to self: My tank is good but not that good; those Elite Fierce Acromantulas hit HARD. Bring more healing potions, and expand your capacity cheapo!

This was painful to watch. 2 stamina 😭😭😭 My condolences. You fought valiantly

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
It's not just 2 stamina, as a professor I had hexed him. If he had completed his spell I would have been victorious.
😭

If I hadn't had that critical hit it wouldn't have been close, conversely there was plenty of wasted time earlier in the battle.
If anyone really cares, here's the whole thing: https://youtu.be/ST-iDlfum4w
Constructive feedback always welcome.

@Osprey1 Ah silly Auror over here didn’t think about that. My bad. That’s even more devastating! I’m so sorry.
Wish they would just do away with animations and you would’ve had this in the bag with time to spare. So frustrating!
Ouch! My condolences. I've missed finishing a few close ones, but nothing as close as that.

Nope, looking for constructive criticism.

Oh noooooooooooo!!!! I’ve been there, it’s crushing!!

Augh, caught the same issue in the same chamber, had an Elite Dangerous Acromantula and was within 1 hit of winning. 😭😭😭
Aaah...I had the same fight today when I ran out of Energy(Forest 1). And one fight when I ran out of time.(Forest II)
