But what would happen if you attempted to beat the game with only the Armor of Thorns on the second playthrough?<br \/>\n&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;<br \/>\nRules:<br \/>\n1. For the first playthrough, I am allowed to play the game however I choose.  Essentially, it&#8217;s a &#8220;prep&#8221; run for the actual challenge segment.<br \/>\n2. Once the second playthrough begins, my damage must come from the Armor of Thorns.<br \/>\n3. Any additional equipment or magics are allowed, so long as it doesn&#8217;t deal damage.<br \/>\n&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;<br \/>\nShoutout to Mah Dry Bread (the Pinwheel reference).
