[Unglaublich Verwustung]

I can see the arguments for having the stones for a newer character, especially when short of real time to go hacking down the lvls each time you log on, only to find that the stones are all gone (lack of time being a problem I often have). Nevertheless there is a lot of merit to doing the hack and slash (or spell and slash, depending on your preference) - apart from anything else there's the straight challenge of how fast you can travel through them the hard way, no amulet of clearing, particularly with a newer character. On that note, my thanks to the guys who were playing down on lvl 11 the other night when I was running my Neotenic char., particularly as I was doing said fast run, they kept a stone free for once I had got there. Much appreciated but won't stop me doing the full levels again, I like the madness involved.
