[GMS.VL] just a mercedes i know, doing what mercedes do.

1. You wasted extra amount of money for a potion that gives you 70 dex? In comparison of using a potion that would save you all that money?
2. Why would you use Spikes Royale at PB, what purpose does this have?
3. As seen on the video with less HP than you, surviving Empress isn't really an accomplishment.

1. That 70 stat would've saved me money on cubing, or push my stat past where cubing could take me, and I would still have more HP. Different things have different values to different people, why is that so surprising?
2. To kill the minions before they weapon cancel.
3. He didn't go with a full group of people who accidentally hit empress in reflect. If he were in my shoes, he'd be dead.
