Prestige was only M45. 3 red weapons, 1 red mount, 3 red + 2 yellow armors, 5 yellow cloaks. Washes were often lackluster: +55/+49/+9 for Eris, +40/+41/+10 for Hecate, +53/+47/+13 for Melinoe, +26/+18/+24 for Zeus, +57/+66/+6 for Pan, +74/+72/+3 or Eurus. Zeus was actually 1 hero and 1 ren lv below max.

My first time ever beating this NPC. Had a (G6)3 (5 enhances from max) Laeveteinn on Pan and M49.

Three NPCs, each with their own difficulties that made them difficult, yet each in the end succumbing to my div spamming today. Lachesis has her very-difficult-to-contain BMs due to having 2 buglers and 2 Sally Outbursts; I beat her with a big of dodging luck but most of all protecting the hero I needed to protect most. Atropos doesn't leave me with a very good place to park my mech, has two column-hitting mechs that force me to sacrifice either the top or bottom column, and has her frustrating dodges that made her difficult to tank with Total Defense. Geras... Now that I think about it if I had used Rally instead of Total Defense, maybe he would have been a lot easier..

Unfortunately for me, Demeter is the worst of them all. The 2 burning golden bulls force me into testudo formation so as to block them. But the real killer here is the sunstorm mage, with its ability to simply shut down my entire army in a sea of stuns for several turns in a row. Demeter is probably possible

Very tough NPC. Definitely couldn't have won without cyclone mage, at least not with just the gear I have (only one purple item, a Laeveteinn). But after switching to this formation, only took about 10 tries. Needed a lot of luck with blocking to minimize burning golden bull damage, and of course the cyclone mage hitting.

This is the end for the forseeable future. Leto would be almost certain suicide even if I had Kylins, Zeus' Cloaks and Laeveteinns on all relevant heroes. Aeolus might be doable if I prepared Thaumas and switched heroes to triple washes. But even if I got through that, Peneus would be even worse. I'm not feeling the motivation to put that much effort and pain into two NPCs that I've beaten in other runs anyway.

Group 3 NPC down at Lv 58 with no arms.

Long long way from maxed out here. Only one purple item: Laeveteinn on mech. Some joke washes: Ophion at +25/+43/+1, Hermes at +23/+12/+1. Even Melinoe not so impressive... Only +57/+44/+15. Prestige at M49. Took on the order of 10-15 tries, I think.

Ok, this is the true end of Athena's Wisdom. Next up is Morus, who is a meteorite mage protected by a blocker. I don't think he would possible even if it were 5 vs 2.
