After way too many wins with HeHu, MiHu, DEWz, and DEFE (note: not actually a lot of wins - just enough that I don't remember exactly how many, I would guess like a dozen - only feels like a lot because until a month ago the game was unwinnable to me), I decided to give a stabber a try. I was at first kind of puzzled about how to play them and made a lot of splats, but then started getting the hang of things and became confident that I'm not shooting myself in the foot every turn. Now that I've sailed to the strange new world of stabber midgame this newfound confidence is starting to decay. So I decided the best course of action would be to bore you all with a bunch of stupid questions. Here's the dump:
What armour should I wear? I've got 10 EA scrolls and a troll hide, mottled dragon hide, robe of fire resist, robe of life protection, and the currently-worn robe of the archmagi. I'm also thinking about swapping to the elven cloak of preservation. I could put on a ring of +5 strength and wear FDA (I have that hide somewhere), but that would be a big hit to stealth/spell success and I'd lose a ring slot.
What rings should I be wearing? The two I have on look like the best, though regen and slaying are tempting.
What weapon should I use? I unwielded distortion dagger to try a randart short sword that turned out to be crap (in hindsight, perhaps I should have ID'd, but the abyss doesn't scare me as a max stealth spriggan with flight). Should I rewield, or use electrocution, or use chilly death, or use unbranded and learn warp weapon? And would it be better to go with a sabre or a dagger (I'm leaning dagger as non-stab attacks are kinda crappy)? I'm considering a +8 blowgun of speed in a shop as I have a few needles of sleeping and curare, but no paralysis and haven't trained throwing at all. I'm also thinking about dropping the buckler and running around with the staff of enchantment and switching to dagger when needed, is that a good idea?
Should I raise STR to avoid stat death, or keep getting INT?
Last but not least (in fact, probably greatest), what spells should I learn (I can free a few spell slots by forgetting Corona, Confuse, and maybe Cause Fear)? Unfortunately I do not have a necronomicon or a book with haste (or darkness or summon dragon), but other than that I've got just about everything. cBlink I've been putting off since I've been working through a manual of dodging (just finished), so that'll be my next goal. Afterwards, I'm thinking I should get a better summon spell to replace scorpions, but I'm not sure if it should be greater demon or hydra or horrible things. OOD, LCS, and the level 9 damagers also look like good options but I'm worried about the noise. Petrify might be good but pretty much everything dangerous is way too resistant anyway. Earth magic is supposedly really good for stabbers, there must be something about it I'm missing?

What armour should I wear? I've got 10 EA scrolls and a troll hide, mottled dragon hide, robe of fire resist, robe of life protection, and the currently-worn robe of the archmagi. I'm also thinking about swapping to the elven cloak of preservation. I could put on a ring of +5 strength and wear FDA (I have that hide somewhere), but that would be a big hit to stealth/spell success and I'd lose a ring slot.
What rings should I be wearing? The two I have on look like the best, though regen and slaying are tempting.
What weapon should I use? I unwielded distortion dagger to try a randart short sword that turned out to be crap (in hindsight, perhaps I should have ID'd, but the abyss doesn't scare me as a max stealth spriggan with flight). Should I rewield, or use electrocution, or use chilly death, or use unbranded and learn warp weapon? And would it be better to go with a sabre or a dagger (I'm leaning dagger as non-stab attacks are kinda crappy)? I'm considering a +8 blowgun of speed in a shop as I have a few needles of sleeping and curare, but no paralysis and haven't trained throwing at all. I'm also thinking about dropping the buckler and running around with the staff of enchantment and switching to dagger when needed, is that a good idea?
Should I raise STR to avoid stat death, or keep getting INT?
Last but not least (in fact, probably greatest), what spells should I learn (I can free a few spell slots by forgetting Corona, Confuse, and maybe Cause Fear)? Unfortunately I do not have a necronomicon or a book with haste (or darkness or summon dragon), but other than that I've got just about everything. cBlink I've been putting off since I've been working through a manual of dodging (just finished), so that'll be my next goal. Afterwards, I'm thinking I should get a better summon spell to replace scorpions, but I'm not sure if it should be greater demon or hydra or horrible things. OOD, LCS, and the level 9 damagers also look like good options but I'm worried about the noise. Petrify might be good but pretty much everything dangerous is way too resistant anyway. Earth magic is supposedly really good for stabbers, there must be something about it I'm missing?
