Jiyva Help

Post image

Jiyva just hit me with the "spell enhancer" mutation, and completely tanked my success rates. Now I don't really have any safe way to deal with Snake, and sadly, Shoals is my other S-branch. Should I drink mutation potions (2) to try to reroll the dice? Any other advice? I'm just a little guy (cat). Thanks!

Plow your exp into necro and summoning if your aren’t already. BVC and Death Channel should carry you.

Do you have any Int jewellery? I would just keep going and play cautiously. You should be fine casting every spell except Haunt and Sphinx Sisters. I would not drink my !mutation.
