Manaleech guarantees max fashions.
swiftcurse para, para, asthma, para (they tree), asthma, para, manaleech
-> curse para invoke soulrend will equal herb bal, will take like 4-5 eats before they finally get to eat kelp/tree comes back.
Pretty much the same sort've concept that Jester follows with gallows. They aff for a few seconds then get a burst of fashions 2-3 bals in a row.
Versus stupid people you can just blight manaleech and spam breach/soulrend, but almost every competent person has a check for manaleech nowadays.

Channeling the fury of battle, you prepare to unleash a brutally swift stroke against your foe.
Drawing back a curved sword of shifting shadows, you unleash a flesh-mincing blow at a greater earth
elemental.
You have scored a WORLD-SHATTERING CRITICAL hit!
The mountainous elemental lets out a final, bellowing cry as it lunges toward you, only to fall to
the ground and crumble into countless pieces of rubble.
You have slain a greater earth elemental, retrieving the corpse.
Your soul cries out in ecstasy as it reaches new heights of power. You have advanced to level 132.
You have reached the illustrious level of 3rd Level of Penwizian Fortitude.
Numerous golden sovereigns spill from the corpse, flying into your hands before they can reach the
ground.
You feel a surge of energy course through your body as a sycophantic shoulder cape feeds upon the
lifeforce of your fallen foe.
Just to also point out to the people moaning about the Hiring-for-bashing changes, I've done that entire level (More than 0-99) and 40% of the previous level without a single mob hiring on me.

Update to this post:
My prism glasses came in on Thursday afternoon (with a -.25/-.50 prescription). Within seconds of putting them on I could feel my eyes relax, the light felt normal instead of bright, and my forehead/temple muscles started to relax. It was like magic.
I have not had a headache since Thursday.
No migraine or even "this might turn into a migraine".
I feel normal going outside in the sunlight, I can do it with no sunglasses or squinting. Previous to the prism glasses I had to wear sunglasses 100% of the time while outside if the sun was up, even if it was cloudy.
My neck/shoulder pain has reduced 80%, I am having to re-learn how to sit properly. Before the glasses I would always sit at an angle with my head tilted as that felt better - this was due to BVD.
I can walk in straight lines without staring at the ground.
Driving isn't stressful anymore, before the glasses I always felt people were encroaching on my lane or merging too closely, etc. That was due to my peripheral depth perception basically not existing (I was not aware of this). Now I can feel exactly how much space is there and don't get a huge pang of anxiety whenever someone changes lanes next to me.
I am more calm/relaxed. My fiance struggled over the weekend because to her it felt like something was wrong with me. She thought I was upset because of my face & general posture/demeanor. Nope, I still love ya baby, it's just that my facial muscles are in a relaxed state instead of a flexed/squinting state all the time.
I feel more comfortable in public, and I actually wanted to get out of the apartment and do something over the weekend.
I am still in disbelief that the improvements were instant. I'm untangling emotions - I have a lot of anger at my parents & previous doctors, frustration with myself for taking this long to realize something was wrong, speculation on how my life would be different if I got these glasses when I was 15 instead of 35, and there's a big pit in my stomach that is full of the years I "wasted" being sick. I plan to see a therapist to help me work through all of that - while I can see light at the end of the tunnel, it will take a while to fully enjoy the end result.
Thank you for all the kind comments and support here. I know I haven't been around for years, it feels good to have people caring for me still.
To anyone else struggling with health issues - I know it sucks. I hope you can remain strong and find the help you need.

I almost didn't go to the CIJ event because I was feeling socially anxious. My medicine's been out of stock for a week and it's really tough for me to concentrate. I'm so glad I went, though. Great event.
I befriended an adolescent ogre and now we have matching armbands after Team Apple demolished (barely won by one point) the deathsight competition!
