YASD: SpEn Hates Fiery Orbs

[byrel]

I'm getting close to my first win. I've gotten four runes (Spider, Swamp, Vault and Abyss), which is a personal record. I've only ever had two before. The only dungeon branches I have yet to clear are about half of Crypt,
Slime, and Tomb. I cleared Crypt to level 3, which had Mennas and Khufu within 10 square of each other, and fled. (I actually tried to engage Khufu with a swarm of elementals, but gave up when I saw Mennas... too much risk.) I just finished clearing D:27, and opening the gateway to ZOT.

The problem is, I'm not sure I'm ready for Zot. I lack anything to give me life protection (though, oddly enough, it shows I have one rank anyhow. Puzzling) I can get to rF++, which I hear is important for the fabled orbs of fire. But this biggest problem is simple damage output. I have to almost empty my MPs through airstrike onto a shadow dragon to kill him, and stone giants require summoning 3-4 air elementals to deal with. Draconians themselves weren't too bad on D:27 at least, as EH/confuse/stealth+stab worked fairly well. I can always channel more MP of course, but that's strategically problematic for a spriggan. (I happily did it on Elf:3 and V:8, of course) Now that is less of an issue since my little jaunt to the Abyss, where I picked up four rations and a VorpWeap scroll.

So, here's the options I've thought of:

1. Hang the mines and full speed ahead!
I could just try smashing my way through Zot as is.

2. Abyss mine for more food/goodies.
Risky. I have a feeling that I might have been lucky getting that much food and the rare scroll. On the other hand, there isn't much that can catch a Sp with Haste. And I have Tornado if things go really pear-shaped. Boring, and almost no XP (unless I stop to fight, which sounds like a bad idea.) But fairly safe. Just remember to use a resist mut amulet this time whenever necessary.

3. Pan runs
I have no real clue. I've seen folks here claim it's safer than the Abyss if you don't mind running. I don't, and I've got a good character for fleeing. I'm not too worried about missing a rune; I don't see this as a likely all-runer anyhow. But I don't know how dangerous/useful this would be, as I've never been to Pan.

4. Clear the Vestibule
I've heard it isn't bad, so long as you're careful. Might grab some XP that way?

5. Clear Crypt
Crypt is both boring and dangerous (too many Skeletal Warriors, who require much elemental summoning. Give me DispUndead already Sif!) I think I could simply avoid Mennas. Even if he wakes up, I can outrun him till silence wears off and Haste+Tornado+SumElemental him to bits. Khufu, who is awake, could potentially be lured off to be dealt with via a horde of summons somewhere else. Doable, but a bit risky. I could just skip Crypt 3, and clear the rest of it. Tomb, I expect to be beyond me without rN++ at least.

What do you guys think? All of these except the Abyss are completely uncharted territory for me.

If any of you have advice on skills at this point, I'd be happy to hear as well. Right now I'm just working on Fighting for a bit more HP, but I'm not sure exactly how much I need. And maybe Dodging, with a much higher apt, would be better. Or Shields to nine for my on-again, off-again buckler...

[cerebovssquire]

SpEn does not need damage output for Zot:5. Here's how you do it instead:

Clear the area outside of the orb chamber so you find the stairs. Read magic mapping.
Buff up as much as you can, both with spells and potions. Most importantly, you should be hasted and have a potion of resistance. But anything is good.
Teleport. If you land reasonably near to the central part of the orb chamber which contains the orb, move towards it. Controlled Blink will make this even easier.
When the orb comes into view, cast Apportation on it. It will land under your feet (though it has a chance of resisting a single pull, in which case try again).
Teleport again.
NOW pick up the orb. Why later? It can delay teleports, and you want your first one to be undelayed.
Try to get to the stairs via teleporting/running.

Your other options, in particular scumming Abyss/Pan, are not making your win more likely. Crypt is some very safe loot so you could do it I guess, but it isn't very likely to be useful in any way. At any rate, you could train some Translocations (I assume you have Apportation somewhere) for Apportation power and maybe even Controlled Blink.

By the way, people like to say that Pan is easier than Abyss because it allows cTele. While this is a big bonus, the monster set in Pan is considerably worse. I still think it's silly to say that Pan is more survivable than the Abyss. At any rate, with spriggan speed, basically nothing will touch you in the Abyss anyway, while I wouldn't feel so safe in Pan (especially with all the corridors which sometimes make positioning hard, especially without cBlink). This "pan is easier than abyss!" thing is more like a kneejerk reaction to way too many people scumming the abyss than a non-hyperbolical fact. What is true, though, is that scumming pan is marginally better than scumming the abyss.

edit: apparently you have Tornado so really you could just kill everyone in the orb vault if you want

[rchandra]

your rN is coming from your amulet of warding.

You're ok for Zot if you just want to win - if you have a plan for Zot 5. The draconian packs can be stabbed while invisible, solo big guys can be ignored or stabbed or fled from. For the Orb vault, Tornado should be good at killing things - but you could really use rF++ to not get fireballed out by Orbs of Fire (since you can't dodge fireball). So wear the robe of resistance, and a vanilla rF ring if needed. Random teleports to the orb may be your best move, but I don't have personal success with that - my SpEns just kill everything there.

Skills: fighting and dodging. I'd probably just turn both on and let the XP do what it can. Shields won't do much for you since you have a robe on, so I wouldn't raise it more now.

Crypt and Slime both seem doable (skeletal warriors do not see invisible), and you might get something useful. Vestibule is only some XP, probably not worth it.

Pandemonium is probably asking for trouble, just take the win.

[crate]

As a general rule, if you have 3 runes you have some way to deal with Zot. It is possible to have an exception (maybe you are a jiyva character who got slime/lucky abyss/one other lair rune) but they are exceedingly rare.

I would suggest just ninjaing the orb like Elynae (cerebovssquire) suggests.

[Psieye]

Telespam ninja is how to do Zot:5 and Zot:1~4 should be easy for you as long as you don't make much noise. You will get a lot of EXP from getting to Zot:5, use it to get cBlink online and maybe Darkness.

If you are insane and just want EXP very quickly, you could clear Vestibule and then rampage in Dis: you are guaranteed wide areas in there so Tornado will always be effective. But it sounds like you don't have food to afford that.

[byrel]

Well, that went... as well as could be expected I suppose! I killed nearly all the orb guardians with tornado. (Amazingly powerful spell; first time I cast a level 9 one, and it's a doozy.) The orbs of fire were evil, as I wasn't wearing resist mut at first. And they deal a ton of damage even with 2-3 pips of fire resist. I grabbed the orb and fled, making all the way to the stairs before getting killed by an orb of fire. I should have made sure to just kill them all before trying for the orb, since I clearly did have the spell power.

Thanks for all your advice! Turns out that Zot 1-4 were actually easier than D:27, which I hadn't expected. Good to know!
