PS Fire Geckos are still a huge pain.

- I'm getting 1-2 curses a turn, which in turn make me weaker or less armored. And the fire geckos are strong enough that they hardly need +10 rage or regen from me getting rid of the curses, but if I don't..

- By the third area, my inventory is pretty stacked, so there's not a lot of room for 2-block curses, and taking damage when I can't place them is essentially game over because..

- Burn is a cool idea, but I'm carrying 20-30 burn by the time I've got rid of a single gecko and that's barely survivable because..

- The Geckos' or Gecko plus Olm's health pool is so big that I need multiple turns to get rid of even one of them.

I traded a life ring in the event with the rat, and though it has been removed from my inventory and its effect removed from my character, the ring image is now permanently in that square of my backpack and can have other stuff put on top of it (see the bottom left ring + key scenario)

"Status effects all now degrade by 1 each turn"
This really hurts the regen wand.
I think the mana bundles need to increase as 1/1 just dont hack it....
Or the regen wand needs to be at least 2....
