Only that 1st challenge, Tran Athula, has a complete "before" required level without any penalty

indeed , but if suppose you forget to do it before level 60 (i don't see how can one miss that , but still) , you just need to pay crystals . you can theoretically do it at level 150 if you want to .

none of the challenges can be misses by overleveling .

I am a type of player who likes to explore every corner of the map.

i remember 12 years ago when i started to play median that i used to like killing everything on the map before proceeding further nothing remained behind me , just corpses

is WARP STRIKE considered a melee attack?

no. melee attack is the actual physical swing animation in melee range

What about spearzon? Lioness only allows the use of melee, summoning and buff/debuff skills and pounce in a warp strike.

That sounds just like me, and not only Median, but vanilla D2 too.

For the RW Galdr, it says "You may only use Melee, Summon and Support skills". I'm making a holy caster pally, if I use this RW would I still able to use Solar Flare, Dragon Wryms, and Frozen breath? I'm assuming I would still be able to use all my buffs.

warp strikes are not melee attacks but they aren't ranged attacks. they arent locked out by that line.

solar flare overrides that line for whatever reason. dunno if its a bug or intentional, but should be fine I think.

The level 6 Nephalem spirit Aura is affected by stats. Would the stat boost from a pallies Demiurge cause the damage to increase significantly? I've read that it scales with soft points, so if I'm cranking up 1400+ for 20 seconds with Demiurge, would it be worth it to toss on Silks of the Victor for the Nephalem aura when testing a build?

I'm guessing the flat points into Neph aura > than level 6 with boosted stats.

Neph spirit aura is based on base str/dex/vit, not total

I know, each individually. Demiurge boost each stat individually. I was asking if that boost counted as base/soft points like the tundra walker set and if the Neph aura would benefit from it.

I can test it in about an hour.

I was also curious if the levl 6 aura was worth it with super high stats, or if the level of the aura/skill needed to be insanely high in order to even boost your damage a bit.

I'm also wondering if this aura is affected by + skills.
