tricky level. definitely feeling a little underleveled for this. got really nervous around the gem level 10 mark, hence all the pausing. skills are: true colors 12, mana stream 9, fusion 3, crit 12
iron wizard is a challenge mode where you only get a flat amount of skill points per map, so upgrades are very limited. you can't farm maps to get more xp, you can't equip talismans. it makes for a very barebones experience, requiring a lot of optimization and micromanaging to complete. it's a very fun mode, and not as daunting as I first had thought. just be prepared to repeat maps a few times until you figure out a build order that works.
X2 is one of the last few maps required to beat the game. it was a real big wall for me so I thought I would be interesting to record my run. X3 was an even BIGGER wall, so after this I decided to go back and rack up a lot of missing skill points from earlier levels, and then the last few maps were a breeze
