The thing is that when I defeat Ares1 I don't have much magic for the clones so I have less magic to use after RotG has ended. Oh I also have have everything maxed out, max AoH and Artemis rapes Ares1. I think I might just restart god mode again so I can get regen magic. I'll give it a few more tries and if I feel like I'm not making any headway I'll just restart god mode.

There is a really easy tactic for Ares1, use the R1 attack with Artemis, it totally raeps him, gives you a bunch of life/magic orbs, and if you cancel it at the end with block, you can go right back into, repeat until he doesn't get stunned by it, avoid a few attacks, then start over again. This way it is really easy to beat him and have full magic/life. I used this tactic for my NUR+, so with MAX everything, it shouldn't be a problem.

Alucard: Correct

Riningan: GoW1 God Mode NUR+ is it? Sounds good. The 'exploit' isn't allowed since it hoses the challenge almost entirely. You could use it but the run would not count towards your 'achievements' with us.

Alright just wanted to make sure that it could or could not be used.

EDIT: I won't be able to start the NUR+ for 2 weeks due to 2 big school projects I have to do.

I recently had a brief attempt at a GoWI NUR+ as well, I included the no magic stipulation, I shall return to it one day.

The large Hydra shouldn't be too tricky, magis is recovered quite quickly so much use of PR speeds things along nicely

I just had an interesting thought yesterday concerning regen magic on a NUR+. My thought is that before I get regen magic I could find out how many blasts of PR I can do without regaining any magic(I think it's 2), that way I can limit myself to only casting it the allotted amount of times when I get regen magic and then when I get AoH, I'll just only cast it once and one PR and no more than that(I won't use MG or ZF unless forced to). That way I could kill those clones at the end(I WANT REVENGE ON THEM FOR ALL THE TROUBLE THEY PUT ME THROUGH!!!) What say you of my idea?

Well, the idea behind the NUR/+ is of self-imposed restrictions, while those are possible to track and this wouldn't be, I guess that we'd believe you since you're a regular.

Indeed it would. I have been thinking, maybe this could count as a new type of specialty run. If you think that this is a good idea, I could think of some rules for it later(right now I got to go to bed).

Riningan: What I do for such 'revenge' runs is...beat it fair and square..then return to it with the effect/powers. Even if you try to be 'fair' about MP usage beforehand, you really can't expect to get it down perfectly. Unless you cease usage of magic until you reach the clones that is. Then it's all fair again and you don't need to redo the run...but you likely aren't ready to just cut that out of your battles..not yet.

The trouble with such a specialty run is abuse of spells. (Ex: PR)

I have already checked out how many PR casts are possible at base level without regen magic(3) so all I would have to do is cast PR 3 times and no more in any one fight(by that I mean the entire area/level). Then when I get AoH I would just cast it once and one PR and no more use of magic,I would also stick with whatever of my 2 magic options to use-3 PR casts or 1 AoH and 1 PR. And on top of that no use of MG or ZF-not even going into their stances.

Good thing that when I start something, I stick with it. I'm thinking of calling this run a GMNUR+RS(RS for riningan style).

EDIT: I had some time yesterday to play and beat the Hydra(I won't bore you with the details of how I did it, unless you want to know) and now I'm at the Dock of Athens.

It's time for an update(due to having winter break now I can start playing GoW again). Anyways I'm at the place where the suicide lady falls right now. Medusa wasn't too hard even though I had a couple of close calls. Basically all I did was [] to /\ followed by an air grab for the duration of the fight with rolls when she tried to stone me. LRR to victory. I must say it's rather hard but fun to only limit myself to 3 PR casts per area even though I got the regen magic.

p.s. for anyone who might want to also try a GMNUR+RS run here are the rules I came up for it in addition to the rules for a GMNUR+:

1.after getting regen magic, you are only allowed 3 casts of PR OR 1 cast of PR and 1 cast of AoH when you get AoH(no using both options allowed) per area that you fight in.

2.no use of ZF or MG allowed(not even going into their stances) unless if the game requires you to.

3.you are allowed one extra cast of PR for every QTE you do on a gorgon or a boss(I'm not sure if sirens give magic orbs when you QTE them but if they do, then you can also get an extra cast of PR from them).

4.high jumps or any kind of skips that require magic can only be done when there are no monsters in your vicinity or after you killed all the monsters already.

5. when you get to Ares, there are no limitations on magic(unless you want them).

I guess you were unaware of the, launch to OH to quick launch strat for Medusa?

I wouldn't feel comfortable with the regen magic, its your run therefore it is your call.

No ZF? Thats harsh.

If I ever return to GoWI then it will be with a no magic run.
