YAVP: DsAK, first win!
So, after several months of playing (and relearning, I used to play a lot but stopped back when DK and MD were still around, and Divinations was a thing, and we had to practice our skills damn it! 
), I finally managed to ascend for the first time. Oh, and I started playing online! Never did that before.
I could probably have managed it earlier with a Mi or something, but I find Ds are just too much fun (especially now that their mutations are actually useful! That was a great change.) so I've been constantly dying with them for quite some time. I usually played either classic melee builds, or tried Necro, and that definitely wasn't working.
So after reading somewhere that Lugonu was the god of escaping from trouble I decided to try it out (for the first time! I used to be terrified of the Abyss, has it been nerfed or something? I find it much more survivable now, even if you don't worship Lugonu, than I remember. Or perhaps I just got better at it ) and, to my surprise, I ascended! And with 5 runes! For the first time!
I guess this kind of proves I still suck at judging when I should retreat. Lugonu saved me at least three times from certain death. I also think I got quite lucky with randarts, that helped a lot.
I never used Corrupt (except at Zot:5) out of fear of losing loot I guess, and I didn't find the need to put distortion on a weapon (because of that lajatang). Would it have been better to have distortion rather than crushing on the great mace? Btw, I found both the armour and the lajatang in Elf:3.
Banish is the best thing ever (bye Maud!), especially knowing your success chance. It saved me a couple of times from uniques and corrosive enemies. Also, the best mutations are the most boring, unfortunately. You can't argue with +30% HP, an extra resistance, or more AC.
Any advice on skill assignment? I mostly just went with what I felt was right. Probably should've invested a bit more on magic, but I still find it hard to remember to use it. Not sure if it was right to invest in Dodging.
Now I want to try either Jiyva, or a Cj, or perhaps 15 runes, but that is still terrifying. Any suggestions?

I guess this kind of proves I still suck at judging when I should retreat. Lugonu saved me at least three times from certain death. I also think I got quite lucky with randarts, that helped a lot.
I never used Corrupt (except at Zot:5) out of fear of losing loot I guess, and I didn't find the need to put distortion on a weapon (because of that lajatang). Would it have been better to have distortion rather than crushing on the great mace? Btw, I found both the armour and the lajatang in Elf:3.
Banish is the best thing ever (bye Maud!), especially knowing your success chance. It saved me a couple of times from uniques and corrosive enemies. Also, the best mutations are the most boring, unfortunately. You can't argue with +30% HP, an extra resistance, or more AC.
Any advice on skill assignment? I mostly just went with what I felt was right. Probably should've invested a bit more on magic, but I still find it hard to remember to use it. Not sure if it was right to invest in Dodging.
Now I want to try either Jiyva, or a Cj, or perhaps 15 runes, but that is still terrifying. Any suggestions?
