YAVP - HoFi - 11 runes
Got my 3rd victory. Was going for a hybrid build but ended up finding a trove pretty early (D14) that needed a haste wand with 9 charges. Happened on haste wand shortly thereafter and recharged it to 9 charges. Gave it to the trove because I've never been in one. Inside the trove, found orange crystal plate armor. Man, is that thing sweet!. Was able to wear that before any lair branches. Changed my skilling to focus on melee and pretty much tabbed through lair branches. Got gifted a +10 execution axe on spider 2 and got that to min delay shortly thereafter. Eventually got some equipment with +inv reliable to evoke. Everything up to the hell branches was pretty easy with that load-out.
My original goal was to do a hybrid character so after I got melee pretty locked down, I decided to pursue some spellcasting for fun. Really wanted to get controlled blink castable because never been able to do it. It took me basically all four branches of hell and many pan levels to get going in that armor. But man, is that a sweet spell. I'm pretty sure I screwed up my stat boosts (way too much strength - no intelligence) but I lucked out on some +int equipment and a +wiz ring that had other desirable features.
Overall, pretty fun run. Some other highlights:
- almost died in level 16 of a zig. 3 or 4 torment capable creatures on screen along with a pan lord. Shining One really doesn't seem to protect from torment (maybe hes not supposed to). The 3 levels of resist neg. didn't really stop it. Anyway, gained new appreciation for scroll of fog and blinked 3 times to portal and left.
- summon forest is a pretty sweet spell. Breaks up line of sight, summons some allies, and kills stuff. It's pretty fun to cast - going to keep an eye on that one
- same goes for song of slaying. trivial to get it to +9 later in game. Found myself using that a lot
- found a +14 chain mail with slay +3, str +3, & +inv right around depths. Seriously considered it vs the orange crystal plate so I could move to casting early, but when testing it out in depths, character took way more damage in the chain than the plate.
- still don't get evokables like wands & lamps & discs, etc. Even with decent skill, I couldn't figure out how to make good use of them beyond dig, teleport, heal
- still had hard time with OOF in zot5. Those things are tough & mutated the crap out of me. Good thing I picked up 6 or so cure mutation potions in the zig.
