First, please note that the "accounts" I'm referring to in the article are Google Play Games accounts. I'm playing v2.4.2, and... no, this error is definitely not related to attempting to revert back to a non-beta version. I have reverted back, but nothing happened for a long time. This error happened in a random date later that. The game will and only crashes if I log in to the game with my main account, but this doesn't happen with my sub account or when I log out. It seems like there is some kind of conflict between the game and Google Play Games.

 

Alright, as a Google Play Games user, yep, I used my Google Play Games account to log in to the game (Shattered Pixel Dungeon v2.4.2), but I have encountered some errors related to the game and Google Play Games. Even though I have successfully fixed all of these errors, I am still writing this post in the hope that the cause can be found and fixed, so that they do not happen again in the future.

The first time the error occurred it was related to a synchronization (sync) issue. I can't sync the game with my main Google Play Games account, I can only do this with my sub account, but at least when I successfully sync the game with a second device (using my sub account) and then log in to the main account, I can sync the game with the main account.

The second time the error occurred, the game keeps crashing whenever I open the game. It always happens if I log in to the game with my main account (but this didn't happen with my sub account). To fix this error, I had to delete all game data on my main Google Play Games account and then log back into the game...

I don't know if anyone else has had the same problem as me, but hopefully these errors can be fixed in the future...

Nice! My record so far is 17,000 (Shattered Pixel Dungeon v2.4.2).

Wait, 35 Potions of Healing?!? What the...?

Too much Plate Armor... I found it before I could reach the Dwarven Metropolis.

I don't really have much of a strategy. I just try to focus on armors. With a good armor, even dwarfs can hardly deal you more than 5 damage per hit (in melee range) if you have a good armor. But in the early game when we only have a Cloth Armor, I will try to replace this armor with a better armor as soon as possible (as well as weapons). Once I have a Scale or Plate Armor, I will use all the Scrolls of Upgrade I find on these armors.

There are also a few other strategies, and they have all been mentioned. It helped me a lot and I think it will help you too.

(Since I rely too much on armors, I don't think I can beat Faith Is My Armor).

 

Well, the Warlock is awesome. I finished the run with 23 Potions of Healing left, again (seven of which are Elixirs of Honeyed Healing)... Maybe not as impressive as this, but anyway... this is still a record for me.

As in the image, these are the challenges that have been enabled.

The Huntress starts with a useful Spirit Bow, but her starting melee weapon, the Studded Gloves, is extremely weak. This is an extremely serious weakness of the Huntress in the early game, but can be overcome by replacing the gloves with a better melee weapon (try to replace the gloves as soon as possible).

She can go through tall grass without trampling it, making it easier to surprise attack the enemies. Besides, with her Rejuvenating Steps talent, she can also create grass and have additional dewdrops and seeds. And with her Heightened Senses, the Huntress can detect enemies behind doors or walls (sometimes it helps her detect secret rooms). When combining Rejuvenating Steps and Heightened Senses (and a Wand of Fireblast or Disintegration), she can replace doors with grass and easily defeating DM-200s and Golems (as in the attached file).

With her Spirit Bow, the Huntress can attack enemies afar without worrying about thrown weapons breaking or running out (Darts can't be broken but they can run out). Her bow can also be enchanted, giving extra abilities (with a Crossbow, Darts can be (indirectly) enchanted, but, again, they can run out). (With her bow, I think Darts are unnecessary, you can save money for other things). The bow upgrades itself after every five levels of the Huntress, so you don't need to spend precious Scrolls of Upgrade on the bow, you can spend them on weapons and armors instead.

...

(The Huntress is actually my favourite hero).

The Freerunner can run at a faster speed, helping to keep distance from Cave Spinners and Succubi, as well as escape Evil Eyes' Deathgaze, etc.

Good tips! The only time I successfully killed these Phantom Piranhas was when I had an armor with Thorns glyph.

This is my own strategy. You can modify it to suit you.

  1. Things you need to prepare for the battle:

– ≥+7 Plate Armor.

– ≥+2 tier-5 melee weapon.

– ~10 Potions of Healing (well... Actually, if you use a good Plate Armor early, you won't need to spend too many Potions of Healing before the Yog-Dzewa battle, because even dwarfs can hardly deal you more than 5 damage per hit if you have a ≥+7 Plate Armor).

– Some Potions of Invisibility and Potions of Shrouding Fog.

– >4 Potions of Toxic Gas.

– Some Stones of Aggression (they can be created in an Alchemy Pot using Scrolls of Rage).

– Recommended to have:

  • A Wand of Corrosion.
  • An Ethereal Chain.
  • Some Scrolls of Teleportation.
  • Some Scrolls of Retribution.

– Etc.

  1. During the battle:

– Use Potions of Healing if your health is low (obviously).

– Use Potions of Invisibility and Potions of Shrouding Fog to get rid of Evil Eyes and Scorpios, as well as all enemies in the battle.

– Throw Potions of Toxic Gas at Yog-Dzewa.

– Throw Stones of Aggression at Fists. This will force surrounding enemies to attack these Fists, and also help you avoid damage from Evil Eyes.

– Etc.

  1. After the battle:

If you can survive until then, so... congratulations! You won!

(Fortunately, Succubi won't appear in the battle. If they did appear, the battle would become a nightmare).

(This is Shattered Pixel Dungeon).

Demon Spawners are enemies that spawn in Demon Halls and look like red balls. They are connected to Yog-Dzewa—the final boss in the game. If the Badder Bosses challenge is disabled (which can be enabled by clicking the gear icon in the hero selection screen), each Demon Spawner will give Yog a 25% chance of spawning a Ripper Demon instead of a God's Larva, but if the challenge is enabled, Yog will also spawn Evil Eyes and Scorpios if Demon Spawners are alive. To get this badge, you need to kill Yog without killing any Demon Spawner.

 
 

"Ascended with the Amulet" with 23 Potions of Healing (one of which is Sunfruit) + three challenges enabled. These challenges are Badder Bosses, On Diet and Into Darkness.

I played Sniper.

(Here is the Dungeon Seed: MWY-LMV-DCF. This is an extremely good seed where you can find a Dirk (not cursed) with Vampiric enchantment. This is why I still use a tier-2 melee weapon in the Demon Halls, haha).
