CIP: T rTr of Nemelex -- can this be salvaged? Nope, YAS
Generally did pretty well for a while, but now I'm in the middle of the Lair, and things are getting tough. A big (7 head) hydra chased me back off Lair:5, and while I was able to take down a single death yak (stair-danced up from there), it sure wasn't easy. Half my summons are coming up hostile, I'm down to 3 large rocks and 2 confusion potions in hand, and have a mix of plain and ornate decks: 3 ornate summoning, 1 plain summoning (see above, though), 1 ornate destruction, and 3 plain escape. I haven't been timing my sacrifices, on account of between potions and decks I'm perpetually short of inventory slots.
Any ideas for how this character could survive the next few levels? Maybe time to get back to the main dungeon for a while, I'd matched this depth there before getting nervous about all the hill giants and such. I'm also finding that travelling to and from my stash is seriously non-trivial with this appetite!
ETA: Never mind, I tried going back to D:13, and got nailed by an unseen horror. Any ideas for how this sort of character might be made more survivable?
