Challenge "don't move"
How should you be able to finish this challenge when you are not allowed to move. Which character should I choose? Which weapons/trinkets should I choose? And if there spawns a chest I can't go there to collect the goodies because I'm not allowed to move, right?

Correct. In some cases you'll kill a boss while it's on your position (for example with Thorns), so you can still pick up the chest without moving an inch, but you will probably get hit by doing so.

Just be sure to have many DPS-upgrades purchased and you take no ruin level (=> lowest difficulty).

I think Mork is suited well to the task. He starts with mighty punch, which is an excellent weapon with short range. Also he has improved damage, attack size, health and pickup radius, which helps immensly. His hefty malus to movement is completely negated by the goal of this task.

I would recommend weapons that have lower range to make sure the enemies die in your vicinity (toxic stench, sparksword, mighty punch, wolf's fang, necromancer gauntlets and so on).

As trinkets everything boosting your pickup radius, the DPS of your weapons, and health / regeneration is very welcome. Shackles are also formidable, as the enemies will spend more time in your damage auras. As another poster said, thorns can help you get some chests, but this requires a little finetuning.

And yes: You cannot get chests in a classical way. You have to resist moving at all cost...

I did it with the troll and my tactic was only choosing close quarter weapons (so that I still absorb all the experience crystals).

So basically I leveled up the absorption range a bit and then choose the troll hero with these weapons:

1. wolffang
2. necromancers grip
3. homemade explosives
4. toxic stench
5. and those fiery boulders wich circle you..

trinkets could also be a lot of benefical stuff but somehow I did not have a lot of luck.... the thorn armor would be great... but the reincarnation urn is a Must because the endboss will surely kill you more then once!

When a miniboss joins the fight and swarms at you, damage them a little bit and then use your special ability to get them away from you (at like 75% of their health)... the tricky part here is that you can get the chest when they die while attacking you... but this is quite dangerous of course. When you have tht thorn armor you are lucky bc it helps alot there.

But as unimportant as it seems: I think the most crucial aspect is to get as much experience crystals as possible, so keep away those long range attacks or trinkets.
