[YAVP] OpVM (new Ashenzari) 15-runer: check out this beast
I mean, check out this. The AC, EV, the resistences. The spell list. My first 15-runer, and towards the end (but really, a good while earlier) I literally didn't know what to do with that XP. With Ashenzari's aid, every single relevant skill was at 27! I could've memorized Tornado as well, just for the fun of it. I had Borgnjor's Revivification and I didn't use it even once. Same with Dispersal, I think?
Three things helped for sure:
1) The new Ashenzari is great fun, much better to play than the previous version, but also probably OP right now. See above re: not knowing what to do with the experience points; having Fire Storm, Abs. Zero, Shatter and potentially Tornado online at the same time (!). Notice that I never ever farmed for points, I just played the game.
2) That staff helped a lot, since at the beginning (and up to Zot) I hadn't found really good rings. Without it I couldn't have done the Hells. The only place where I felt threatened were the Tombs, where I was reduced under 60 HPs several times. Might have been worth the effort to learn Necromutation for that branch. Also, Shatter helped a lot in navigating the Tomb levels (although I realized I could use it only halfway through, when most of the work was done!)
3) Absolute Zero! I know it's well-known, but really:
127730 | Pan | Noticed Cerebov
127738 | Pan | Killed Cerebov
131548 | Pan | Noticed Gloorx Vloq
131554 | Pan | Killed Gloorx Vloq
...and so on. All in all, I found the extended game underwhelming -- I wouldn't know how to make it more interesting, but right now it's kind of a slog. Oh well, my next games will be quicker!
Anyway, I'm quite happy! This is my first Octopode win as well (out of just five, but with many many stupid deaths out of boredom). I guess I'll try to finally win the game with a Spriggan now

Three things helped for sure:
1) The new Ashenzari is great fun, much better to play than the previous version, but also probably OP right now. See above re: not knowing what to do with the experience points; having Fire Storm, Abs. Zero, Shatter and potentially Tornado online at the same time (!). Notice that I never ever farmed for points, I just played the game.
2) That staff helped a lot, since at the beginning (and up to Zot) I hadn't found really good rings. Without it I couldn't have done the Hells. The only place where I felt threatened were the Tombs, where I was reduced under 60 HPs several times. Might have been worth the effort to learn Necromutation for that branch. Also, Shatter helped a lot in navigating the Tomb levels (although I realized I could use it only halfway through, when most of the work was done!)
3) Absolute Zero! I know it's well-known, but really:
127730 | Pan | Noticed Cerebov
127738 | Pan | Killed Cerebov
131548 | Pan | Noticed Gloorx Vloq
131554 | Pan | Killed Gloorx Vloq
...and so on. All in all, I found the extended game underwhelming -- I wouldn't know how to make it more interesting, but right now it's kind of a slog. Oh well, my next games will be quicker!
Anyway, I'm quite happy! This is my first Octopode win as well (out of just five, but with many many stupid deaths out of boredom). I guess I'll try to finally win the game with a Spriggan now
