100% on Ironman?

[Kburke15]

Is it possible to 100% the entire game on iron man mode? With how many traps there are plus how many enemies the creator FLOODS into the dungeons, I am beginning to doubt that beating the game 100% is impossible on iron man mode.

Numerous players have made it through the game on Ironman using a wide range of character and build types.

Traps are thing to deal with on Ironman. (Traps used to be worse, but the game did reduce some traps).

Warriors, esp 2-H warriors with a combat focus, have the hardest time with traps because they tend to have the lowest detection rate. However, they tend to have the highest HP, and the skill Charge, can safety take you across a trap. That's rather nifty.

Mages have a decent change to detect traps (INT and AWA tie well with mages), plus Mage Armor will absorb one trap.

Clerics have a decent chance to passively detect traps, plus the Wisdom skill that can detect traps in wide area. Intervention can also serve as a great back-up plan for a missed trap.

Rogues can have the best ability to detect traps, and the best ability to disarm traps.


So every build has to have a way to deal with traps. Do you use class skills or scrolls of detection? Use a Companion as a trap detector? Do you just go slow and hope for the best?

Before last content update I had 2 Ironman runs on 100% (including unweakend undermother), one with mage and one with archer rouge. It's not that hard at all. Also spend weeks in SoH just to get to nr1 in leaderboard, that was crazy annoying. Endless SoH runs on Ironman are pure thrill, one mistake and all was for nothing

After more failed Iron Man attempts than I could count I eventually concluded that I simply sucked at the game. Since that epiphany I have enjoyed playing it far more than I ever did before.

I have tried every build on Ironman and I constantly just can't seem to get the builds right. I will try Charge though to get past the traps.

Many tears of regret, shouts of anger, and blank stares of disbelief have gone before almost everyone's first completed ironman run.
