Ring of haste is only worth upgrading to +9, anything past 4x speed is pretty much wasted.
I would ways run warrior, since he has a t3 ability hold fast, which gives additional armor that isn't reduced by the challenge.
Getting +7 on scale armor is questionable, since now you kinda have to commit to scale armor. Stick with scale for now, and if your ehp isn't too bad wait and see if you drop a +2 or +3 plate somewhere. Spending all of your scrolls on armor is going to hurt later on in the run when your damage starts to tank.
🔥 This is fine 🔥
Scroll of transmutation works on trinkets. I thought Glyph was elastic but idrk
Am I the only person who didn't know you get a different ability if you bring the crown to the rat king?
Evasion builds are great with rogue, specifically freerunner since you get the juicy bonus evasion. It's also nice to get lineups with demon eyes and watch the friendly fire shred. But I only ever do that if I get a +3 ring of evasion from imp or smth.
Tengus interaction with charm is weird. He stops throwing shurikens at you, but will still use other abilities as normal (cause they aren't direct attacks, I guess?). This makes affection very helpful for the first phase and not as helpful for the second.
I agree lightning has it's drawbacks, but it's better than your other options right now. Obviously if you aren't in a desperate spot you could put off switching what's in your staff until you need to, and hope you find a better option
The chains and rof will help a ton. Personally, I don't like dumping upgrades into scale armor since you get more bang for your buck with plate, and now you need to decide if you are willing to stick with your scale for the rest of the run or not. At +5 it shouldn't become a problem until the last few floors/eye boss fight. I don't like prismatic in the staff since most of the benefit from prismatic is finding traps, secrets, and blinding ranged enemies, which don't happen often enough to justify getting 8+ charges of it at a time, so I would use lightning. Keeping magic missile is pointless rn, since it doesn't give you more wards or much damage with prismatic, and the extra lightning damage would be easier to get if you just put the lightning wand into the staff.
It was at this moment the king felt true fear for the first time.
