I have officially beaten Hunter Mode, 25 floors on Expert.
On my own. No team.
No, I am not joking. I finally beat the hardest mode in the tower with no help whatsoever. Here's a picture of my best time to prove it:

I guess virtually impossible isn't quite the same as impossible after all...
Surprisingly though, it wasn't actually as hard as I thought it'd be. I mean sure, the enemies combos got ridiculous (like how most floors had about three Gobbers and one Strong Gobber, or the rooms with things like two Strong Hiders, three Strong Sneakers and multiple Strong Greenies), but damn the upgrades get good when you end up with over 20 000 gold.
I mean, the last suction upgrade is darn nice. Permanent X3 power? Yes please! Add this to the X3 suction power up you can get, and you end up with something like 9 times the power of the normal Poltergust 5000, which was actually enough for me to destroy a 600 HP Gobber boss in just over 30 seconds flat!
The Heart Drops are all right too, they give you something like 10 hearts at the start of the level. That's quite useful.
There were some tough scrapes though... like when Luigi ended up with just TWO health. Not 12, nor 20. Just 2. As in a Spider touching him would kill him there and then. Thankfully I found health quick there.
I also had the misfortune to come across the key glitch at floor 23 or so, but thankfully the floor had three locked doors and hence there was a spare key to use. I eventually finished with just 4 seconds on the clock.
But yes, it's finally done. I've finally beaten the hardest possible mode in ScareScraper without even a team to back me up.

ark Moon since I refuse to get any further unless I get the 3 star ranking. I'll have to play it more often..
