CIP: Evocations Much?
Running a FoFi^Nem
My question is: When should I stop training evocations (until I hit late game where XP is abundant and I have nothing else to train)?
This will be my first time running Nem since the ~reform. So far Nem seems just as crazy good as he was before, but without the extra xp.
Anyway here's my dump
If I don't at least ascend at least three runer I ought to give up Crawl for awhile...
