CiP: SENe of Kiku- about to enter midgame (YASD)
Hey all. Looking for advice now that my character seems to be on a roll. I got lucky and found a nice ring of slaying and a short sword of electrocution relatively early on, which has allowed me to fare relatively successfully in melee. I've cleared Lair up to 7 and all of Orc, though Orc 4 took a while and was probably an unnecessary risk. So far I've gone for utility over damaging spells, but I'm not sure what I should work towards memorizing next, or in the long term. Haste seems like an obvious choice, but -2 Charms makes me question if it's worth it. I have a lot of books in my stash: burglary, clouds, death, dreams, envenomations, party tricks, unlife, wizardry, sky, warp, and evocations. So, my options are fairly wide-open.
My question, then, is how should I gear my skills and spells for the next part of the game (with which I am less familiar)? Right now my skills seem to be in danger of being spread too thin.
