YAVP: DgEE. Take that, RNG!
I'm still at it. You won't bring me down, RNG. One day, I will ask you what I shall win next, and you will not taunt me with this combo for at least a hundred years. The power of Too Much Time On My Hands will overcome ye, eventually.
After many attempts at forcing a DgEE to behave like a Trogite without the Trog, I *finally* caved in and invested in actual magical skills. Finding two manuals of ice magic in Lair may have had something to do with this sudden reversal. Possibly. However, you may notice that I have, in fact, not been casting anything. A demon whip of electrocution with sufficient skill to reach minimum delay rolls over Orc, Lair, and most of the main dungeon like a truck. Now that I am in the rune-gathering phase of the game, however, it would be very nice to have at least some supportive magic.
I have two problems to solve before moving on, and would appreciate advice on both. For one, which of the many skills that I want to have should I be working on at present? Secondly, should I give this trove 4 scrolls of blinking? The answer to the latter inquiry is most likely no, but curiosity tempts me to make the trade.
Alternatively, I could forget about casting for now and just wear the armour of the Dragon King. I need quite a bit more strength to overcome the penalties, though, if I'm not mistaken.
Thoughts?

After many attempts at forcing a DgEE to behave like a Trogite without the Trog, I *finally* caved in and invested in actual magical skills. Finding two manuals of ice magic in Lair may have had something to do with this sudden reversal. Possibly. However, you may notice that I have, in fact, not been casting anything. A demon whip of electrocution with sufficient skill to reach minimum delay rolls over Orc, Lair, and most of the main dungeon like a truck. Now that I am in the rune-gathering phase of the game, however, it would be very nice to have at least some supportive magic.
I have two problems to solve before moving on, and would appreciate advice on both. For one, which of the many skills that I want to have should I be working on at present? Secondly, should I give this trove 4 scrolls of blinking? The answer to the latter inquiry is most likely no, but curiosity tempts me to make the trade.
Alternatively, I could forget about casting for now and just wear the armour of the Dragon King. I need quite a bit more strength to overcome the penalties, though, if I'm not mistaken.
Thoughts?
