depending on what character I have. I often raise my spring attack and crushing blow first and formost. I also use uppercut since this is very important for harpy and bee encounters(damn harpies divebomb me and bees are pretty tanky). For a level 1 chaste virgin run of the game, i dont suggest investing in magic or charisma since they just kinda suck late game (lots of the bigger enemies are resistant to magic and hit too hard to waste a turn and charisma is only used for fun, when the physical abilities offer outs as well). If you are going for say a level 1 run, but not a virgin i suggest getting buttfucked by ghosts as much as you can in the beginning without gaining too much xp since you can gain perk points from that. If you are doing the chaste run separately as well, then you can invest a lot into physical abilities AND magic because embers is really really good against tanky bees because once they are on fire they stop drop and roll giving better hits for spring attack and crushing blow. You should only steal the diamond plate armor when your agility is like 9 to not get caught, as well as not stealing anything else from anywhere.

My runs consist of going to town of humans, asking brothel madam for job with more gold, then going to town square, asking about goddess, eavesdrop and get the gem, buy all the food at the store, go to blacksmith (If i have a high agility i steal the diamond plate armor) and purchase the dagger and the broadsword(after i steal), then i head towards monsters, purchase the helm of perception and boots of agility and go to the pub for brothel madam quest, then head for witch's cottage giving them gem and persuing their wares to attempt to steal their agility charm and purchase the cage of power, then i head for the verdant valley where the giantess is, I make sure to have high perception and stay away from the giantess, obtain gloves of power and 100 gold from giantess and decide to be eaten, leave, go to goddess and it should be easy to beat her at this point, then I go to the altar (backwards usually, since it is in between monsters and the xinxu mountains where the goddes is) and teleport back home, go back to brothel madam and recieve more gold for the quest and go to town crier for reward for goddess, (purchase battle skirt if i do not have one), go to witchs cottage again and attempt to steal strangth charm, but if unsuccessful, just purchase strength and endurance charm after already owning agility charm. If you could not get agility charm first time around purchase that and strength charm instead, then head towards the demon king from there (yes i know there is a lot inbetween but you should have all of the gear you need).

In the beginning of the run there should be a hunger charm in a cache nearby the town, make sure you use perception in order to find it or scout out for it and make sure your scouting level is 3 right before you get it in order to ensure that you will own it. Also if you have low charisma, i suggest picking up trudy if you can, and if you cant use high perception to avoid werewolves. also if you feel really cautious of werewolves and have high strength, use a perk point on scentless. Picking up kylira is nice,for an actual run, but not for a level 1 chaste virgin run.

I suggest this to not be the first ironman run you have done, since there is also all of the other achievements i strongly suggest you complete in order to get an extra edge in the beginning. Also I suggest running orcblood for your first time around.

ducking and upper cut is still viable laate game because the demon king will pull a few haymakers every so often. Also spring attack and crushing blow are still very good and it is what i suggest you use on the demon king.

Food can be obtained later in the game from merchant food carts, flocking harpy eggs, sleeping ettins, and (not a lot of food) briggand cottages. Healing pools are less common but i suggest that you drink from the waters. I didn't and i was fine because i always want to try the encounter again when i am done because i just like having the option but if you encounter a healing waters again, you WILL loose some purity because they will kiss you regardless. So i strongly suggest that if you encounter a healing pool to drink.

having low charisma and low magic in beginning may be difficult to deal with ghosts and dryads(for food), but are less common late game so you should be fine.

If you go directly to each point i listed above, then you definitely shouldnt run out of food.

any other questions you may have?

I'd never thought of using uppercut actually, Blitz attack is actually quite nice from what I've experienced, especially if you can dump points into quickfooted for the stability bonus. I didn't know the ghosts gave you perk points either, I did know the demon girls in the later "horrid presence" spots gave you either willpower or a perk point depending on your choice. I typically steal the full plate in monsters instead since it covers both top and bottom, having the agility charm and the shoes help with this, you can also drink a cat pot before entering town if you want.

My runs typically go the same aside from the diamond plate and the broadsword, i still buy the dagger, but I go through the spider ruins to get the gladius +2 since strength and agility scores end up real high by the time you're fully geared. Must have forgotten you can "turn in" the mountain goddess quest because I had no clue you got paid for talking to the crier afterwords.

Hunger charm is a lifesaver especially if you're playing orcblood, early werewolves arent much an issue for high strength characters if you scout and stealth well, as you can choose to avoid them instead and the later werewolves that you can't avoid don't go after you when you beat them.

Lvl1 chaste/pure definitely shouldn't be you're first run, i agree with that. Only ones I'm missing now are wrong way(cant get) and team balance. Ended up beating demon king lvl1 chaste/pure before your reply by spamming blitz attack and vault crush, chugging health pots when her patterns allowed. On repeat runs i still just have bad spawns or something because running out of food with no restock spaces is common for me, however, I figured out that resting at an inn gives you a solid amount of food if you can afford it, especially if you spend several nights in a row.

Grabbing the lvl 3 potion set can be a good extra bit of cash as they sell for a decent amount, especially of you already got the lvl 3 bonus starting money then it puts you around 250ish after selling all the stat pots.

Hearing other peoples strats and then talking about your own is always fun for me. Only questions i'd have left is how you go about a mage run as they feel really weak and withdraw seems to work about ⅓ of the time, as well as if you've ever used the "second map outpost start" and had any level of success going forward without all the gear you'd end up collecting getting to that point.

For the mage run, I had to go with orcblood, mess around a bit with sleep spell (since paralysis got nerfed to oblivion) in order to create my own openings in a fight. I use all of the pots i saved from the beginning of the game for the demon king fight, making sure i take time to drink them when i get the chance. It is not a fun way to run since mage is just so bad after paralyze nerf. demon king has 75% magic protection and magic attaks just dont do enough. I also dont have enough total mana to win the fight. My orc mage after being perked out ended up being 7, 6, 8, 6, 6, 5 until i got some gear later on, but it doesn't play like mage anymore. It sort of played out like the ranger run i did which was just a worse version of thief. A few ways I went about this is by using golems to get magic points (rough to get before getting exp, but getting one or two encounters isnt impossible) to boost gear.

I heard you liked blitz, an i must suggest that using two weapons is much better than one when using blitz. bleeding stacks like crazy. Sometimes I use overrun in order to knock them down for crushing blow follow up. Also using amour breaker is kind of nice against bees and dark knight. Broadsword is the best weapon late game because it is the weapon meant for high agility and strength which all characters have at the demon king point. I also equip the dagger as well in my off hand in order to get those bleed stacks going. When I get in a pinch near the end, sometimes using a seduce on the demon king works in order for them to stop attacking and they keep on bleeding and die to bleed damage, but that is only useful when i cant afford enough time for the health pots and out of mana for aide. gladius is meant for characters with low agility and strength by dividing the total stat by 6 rather than the broadsword dividing the total stat by 2.

You can get team balance by switching over to the demon king's side by actually being seduced when you encounter them. You choose to suck their dick without fighting and it is a "check" so you cant just use skip to get right to that point since you will skip over it.

Also for second map outpost, i never really use. I invest all of my points in all of the level 3 and either cage key(for paladin) or clothing set in order to just have armor in the beginning. when i do use it though, all i do is work backwards from there, going back through all of the maps and then using carriage when i reach human town.

Also I love talking about strategies in this game because i geek out about this game all of the time. Like i quit other games because this game is just the best. Also talking to people who also enjoy it is a lot of fun as well. I can also test out their strategies and play it differently, spice things up a bit if you will. Lately i have been working towards 100% completion, since data saves from previous games now. Im still having trouble figuring out the Kylira quest line because I go to all of the goblins, centaurs, werewolves and the human at the inn in order to complete the quest and when i go back to camp, kylira says it isnt done yet.

I miss the old strat that made enchanter and mage viable which was paralysis strat which would be use to paralyze the opponent, and then swing at them multiple times and right before they get back up, paralyze them again, which was the best way to utilize magic. I alread proposed a few changes in another post, but i will have to wait until i can become a patron around january
