He is currently well of using range so the propeller will be beter for his future journey, be it digging upward or digging down he won't be in passive situation and can go to the next catacombs more safely, he will obtain a better overview of the next catacombs if he goes down and even shoot down his target from the sky. No matter what, range stay safer than close combat plus it's not like he can't get the two wind runes for his sword so long as he is alive.
He should make the propeller for safe travel up or down especially since he has several good melee and an excellent ranged weapons.
While I enjoy this story so far I am getting a little annoyed at how short the chapters are since they quickly eat up my fast passes.
