Tips & Tricks
- The lava area outside of Asmodeus' castle sometimes has many sealed off smoke demons wandering about, as well as other less-dangerous foes. Although you can't easily reach them, they will smite you any time they notice you through the many iron grates in the castle. Ignoring them can leave you dangerously low on HP by the time you reach Asmodeus, so use a wand of digging to destroy the grates and kill them on sight. If you have Airstrike, you don't even have to destroy the grates.
- If you don't draw him into melee range, Asmodeus will quickly fill up the room with fire-related summons. He and his summons can toss a lot of fire and damnation your way; just standing next to Asmodeus places you in a column of flame. Needless to say, rF++ or rF+++ is a prerequisite here.
