First octopode to get anywhere, first gozag character to get anywhere as well.
I've cleared the lair, swamp, spider, slime, orc, elf, crypt, the vaults and the depths as well as zot 1-4 so far.
I'm toying with the idea of switching to TSO -> makh. or dith., not entirely sure what I want to do at this point but this character certainly seems promising;
With some luck hopefully I'll pull off another 15 rune game- with an octopode!

Nice! I've never had any success with either octo nor gozag. Any tips? That shield is crazy btw. Good luck!

Ty- the shield is awesome, I'm glad I didn't let donald get next to me with that thing equipped.
I trained polearms and stealth to level 10 or so fairly early, which I believe helped, as well as finding the ring of robustness before I got ozocubu's armour.
My strategy early on was a cloud stabber with IMB/OOD nukes, mid game I switched to a freezing/poison gas stabber with IMB/OOD nukes.
Now I'm planning on going invis./needle stabber + OOD/Glaciate/Tornado, and switching out IMB for thrown javilens, though I'll still keep freezing cloud for a rainy day.

The tough part is trying to survive long enough to get some decent rings, AC and skills to make it through the lair before a hydra or spiny frog make popcorn out of you, lol.

Friday, 4th December 2015, 02:39 by killdudes

Switched to TSO, still dealing with gozag's wrath, which is surprisingly nasty (the buffs he gives to monsters make me wish I'd abandoned trog).
Had a couple close calls, one took me down to 20 hp and the other 60, both were do to 'reapers' of all things, which are the last enemies I'd expect to harm me;
Have they been massively buffed or something?
Perhaps I'm just feeling it do to the squishy nature of octopodes, lol.
Made it to dis:6 so far. I think I might be better off in pan until the hell wrath stops stacking with gozag's.
Edit: Going to pan... panned out well; Gloorx gave me a shiny new rune to play with. :twisted:

Edit (again): Time to leave TSO soon, how does dithmenos fair with octopodes? I've never used his abilities, but they sound sort of neat;
Though makhleb is likely a much better bet... Maybe even sif. ->makhleb if I don't find the book of annihilations soon. lol

Monday, 7th December 2015, 20:11 by killdudes

Figured I'd post an update, I'm to eleven runes now. Haven't bothered switching from TSO yet despite the stealth hit + restrictions being extremely annoying in conjunction with each other.
Managed to find a book of annihilations in the first few levels of a zig.
(though I had originally went there to keep myself from starving- and barely found enough food to break even... gozag almost got me post-wrath... heh)
Anyone happen to know how insane my intelligence will have to be boosted to get glaciate to full spell power without enhancers?
My ice & conjurations are maxed, and my boosted int is at 49 already- I can't believe it's not maxed yet! o.0

Damn, those rings are just a dream come true for any squid, arent they? No wonder you are steamrolling the game.

IKR- finding the ring of robustness as early as I did made a huge impact in the lair and mid game, let alone the others.
Though I've only got tomb and antaeous left I kind of want to push my luck and see how far I can carefully zig scum myself some even better rings on top of what I have.
Once I've got tornado a bit more castable than 54%, this squid will be (almost) unstoppable as long as I don't let myself get tempted to go past zig:18-20 or so.

Monday, 7th December 2015, 22:30 by killdudes

Four health... antaeous caught me off guard... wow. made it out somehow... terrifying stuff.
Edit: Since I've gotten the last two runes, I might as well go for zot:5- I wanted to zig scum... But antaeous reminded me that I'm just a squishy little octopus, so I'll play it safe.

Nice. Lost mine a few days ago to ignorance & it still hurts.

This is so true. I was hoping to get it in my run as well. Alas wasn't meant to be. I see that you also found the finger amulet : thematically awesome and " for good measure " as they say : D.

Nicely done.
