I think it's the easiest... It just is so... Easy... The cobols rush to the lava and kill themselves, the Warlocks are just TOO easy to kill with a ranged weapon, the Watcher is so slow, the whole level is so easy...

Sand is easiest, I think. Then Ash, then Water.
But we dont' really need to change the order or anything; it's fine.

For some reason, the Watcher(new version) is annoying hard for me. It kills me in 3 hits... I normally lure him to the lava tile room to watch him kill himself. It would have been easier with a Wizard though...

Here's my order of Difficulty.

-Shadow: ALL the enemies here are weak like hell
-Water: Trogs are easy with AoEs like a Soldier vs regular sword in right hand. They stop attacking when they get too close to you ans stupidly turn thier backs in range, so you have to time shielding and attacking(aim for ones with Crossbows first) . Squidies could be taken out quickly with Spear stacking throws, and ranged weapons. The boss is a joke....
-Sand: This place is missing mummies, but that does not matter. The boss is pretty tough unless you have some damaging spell. I use the Wand of lighting when it's between a thin hall.

Next it's a tie between Ice and Ash. Ice would be harder if it had more mechanics.

When it comes down to it, it's a matter of playing style. The order is fine.

But the thing is with Shadow you need the Water Palace or Bishopia for lighting if you don't cast magic and I don't know how to unlock Bishopia...

True... I can't think of another method unless you can read where you are going in the dark. lol

Yeah you need a lot of good gear to beat the Shadow palace.

You just need a light. Book of Fairy light is the best. So is a lantern. No other gear is needed. Keys are also all over the placem but you can use a book of Unlock to get through it faster.

Well, nothing else is NEEDED, but it's a lot easier to take out the Bind Spots if you have ranged magic stuff.
Also, isn't one over a sacrificial pit?

Yeah. The trick is to god up to it slowly until you feel a dark chill(you would be standing directly at the edge XD). That way you can kill it with a short range weapon. Risky, but fun.
