CiP > YASBD: GrHu requesting some assistance

[Gunthar]

I have a GrHu which is doing quite well. I had the big luck that I got a +2 plate armour on D:1.

But I have still some concern. My inventory is very full. And I want to leave some stuff behind. The enchantment scrolls I would like to use on a better bow.
First which of the melee weapons I should keep?
Second should I let some of the wands behind?
Third should I let the blowgun and needles behind?

I got twice Arrows of Flame from Oka as a gift.

He got killed being impossible to get the killing strike on a near death orc warrior. I was using up all healing potion while trying to get the last hit on that orc warrior. Murphys law rulez again.

[BlackSheep]

First and foremost, drop the potion of cure mutation.

Pick a melee weapon class and use that, dropping the others. Of the ones you have, the glaive is the strongest. Gargoyles have better aptitude for maces, though, and it's pretty easy to find a great mace. Darts in general are pretty useless, especially if you have tomahawks. The exploding darts are handy early on since they can't be dodged, but their damage falls off pretty quickly so start using them. You don't have a sling, so drop the bullets. For goodness sake, start identifying your wands by zapping them at things with poor magic resistance (rats, bats, etc.). I usually don't carry more than 3 or 4 rations at a time. If you drop all your bread, you'll free up a slot. Use the scroll of enchant armour on your helmet, cloak or gloves.

[Amnesiac]

I think removing that ring of fire would be a good idea, especially if you fight ice beasts and simulacra (melee cold and fire damage is doubled for vulnerable players).
