CiP (Now YAVP): SpEn of Kiku
Playing a SpEn of KIku and I could do with some advice. I'm planning to do a 3 runer.
Weapon Choice
I'd originally planned to brand a sabre with pain but haven't found any yet. So far the +3 short sword of elec has been serving me well and I have a +2 holy short sword and a +4+2 freezing dagger that I switch to depending on what and where I'm fighting. Should I go into Elf to find one or should I just forget about it and just get the Necronomicon?
Spells
I haven't really found many books and the only spells I can learn that are not necromantic in nature that do damage are flame tongue and fireball. I would imagine that the former is useless at this point and Fireball has an 85% failure rate unless I pump conjurations or fire. I have a couple of unIDed high-level books so one of them might be Annihilations so Poison Arrow is a possibility but I have no way to pump up Poison magic. Suggestions?
Armour
What should I wear? I've been wearing a randart +0 animal skin with {Dex+3 Int+3 Curse}. I have a whole bunch of robes with rF or rC. Or alternatively, I have some mottled dragon and troll leather that I could convert to armour but that would mean putting some xp into Armour skill. I should note that I'm wearing a randart cloak with -2 Dex because it's the only source of blink I have besides scrolls.
Where to go to next?
I'm currently planning to go clear down to Vault 7 and see whether I find anything along the way, but I'm not too sure where to go to if nothing turns up. No flight or repel missiles makes me a little leery of Shoals, no conservation or preservation makes Elf less attractive, no rMut so no Slime.
Misc
There's a treasure portal that needs 15 scrolls of teleport and I have 17 altogether. Worth it? Those scrolls are my only source of teleport although I guess I could buy a ring of tele if need be. I also have a scroll of acquirement. Use it for armour or wait and see?
