Thanks to high agility and defense I made it to 38 encounters before encountering a chimera with over 1,000 HP. I spent several minutes whittling its health down dodging every blow until it finally oneshot me with only two strikes left to go. The equipment bonuses are a little too random and not as tied to level as they should be. I had to pass a lot of equipment up in later levels because they can't match up to the +80 defense I already had. I was impressed with the amount of writing put into the game. Everything having tooltip descriptions was a nice touch!

Thanks for playing Horned!
Wow looks like you found a good build to go about long runs! Yea right now there's no weighted chance of dropping loot that gives bonus to a good spread of stats, so it could be why you went long stretches without getting a good piece of defence equipment! You might have gotten really lucky and got a god roll on defence where the item base bonus coincided with the suffix defence bonus to give whooping amounts of defence!
Yes a lot of work went into the writing my @junkgolem!
