	\| Battle Medic \|\| Ship-shape: Form a run around either of the Heart-Shaped items (Potion or Acorn). Iron Transfusion is most helpful, though Jagged Edge, Lifeblood Armor, or Bloodmoon Sickle may have to do. The Potion pairs well with Granite Crown.		\| Battle Medic \|\| Ship-shape: Form a run around either of the Heart-Shaped items (Potion or Acorn).

	\| Leshen (stone) \|\| Slightly easier: Ironstone equipment is Most Valuable Player, but remember "Unique" means one per run. Ore Heart's great, obviously. All Edges are good except Featherweight, because you won't have speed. Stone's weapons are all winners.		\| Leshen (stone) \|\| Slightly easier: Ironstone equipment is Most Valuable Player, but remember "Unique" means one per run. Ore Heart's great, obviously.

	\| Leshen (hurtless) \|\| Avoid bears unless you're fast: Reset until you get a good start, which might be Hog or Knight. Prioritize armor stat, freeze effects, Hero's Return, Ironstone equipment, merchant. Fight Wolves (their bonus means nothing on this run). This is the second-hardest Woodland Challenge, so don't get discouraged.		\| Leshen (hurtless) \|\| Avoid bears unless you're fast: Reset until you get a good start, which might be Hog or Knight.

76561198010361111: Contributed the first two samples of advice that use the actual Challenge names to identify them. This table might move into the main article once it's been tidied up a bit. I wonder if we could lay the wiki page out like a grid that resembles the Challenge layout.. At any rate, a screenshot of a complete grid is merited.

	\| Woodland Abomination \|\| Honestly hard: If you're only averaging 10 or 11 damage per turn, Abomination will deal 45 in the same time. If you have an average of 12, he'll deal 36. If you can only receive 15 damage total, you'll need an extreme average of 17 damage per turn. If they are frozen for the whole fight, your average of 12 per turn will need 17 hitpoints to survive. With only the two Ironstone protectors, 16 hitpoints are sufficient with a 12 point attack rating. Combining Frostbite Greaves with Saffron Talon (itemset) requires you to supply 8 additional base attack from 6 items, Oil, and Edge. Prioritize Ruby Jewelry, or triggered damage sources such as Blackbriar equipment, Assault Greaves, Studded Gauntlet, or Sword Talisman.		\| Woodland Abomination \|\| Honestly hard: If you're only averaging 10 or 11 damage per turn, Abomination will deal 45 in the same time.

			\| Bombastic \|\| Double exposure: The instructions seem open-ended. "Exposed" can be yours ''or the enemy's'', and "at the same time" can be "battle start", as was demonstrated by Golden Cherry Bomb, Double Explosion, Iron Shrapnel, and Kindling Bomb, versus the Mountain Troll.
