CIP DDFi^Makhleb (yes I know it's easy)

Hi people,

So I know this is supposed to be like the easiest combo (apart from maybe MiBe), but I haven't yet won either so that also says a lot about me. Here's a promising little guy, who gets consistent healing from Makhleb, has a great axe for chopping all your hydra heads and can go berserk in big fights with his amulet. I'll try to play him as best I can to score a 3-rune win, so I'm asking for any advice you feel is relevant. In particular I know that I underuse evokables so I'd like to know when you use them.

Thanks in advance,

Morgue :

Re: CIP DDFi^Makhleb (yes I know it's easy)

Stop training Evocations. Lots more Axes. Lots more Armour. Lots more Fighting. A bit more Invocations later maybe.

Use Lesser Servant 1–3 times before a big fight. Before or early in the fight, before it's an emergency. Lesser Servant is great.

Use Lesser Destruction as much as you want. Lesser Destruction is good.

Use Evocations in the same way as the above Invocations.

Thanks, I died to elves after trying to do their halls too early, I'll keep it in mind for the next time.
