 28510 | Orc:3    | Found Sebba's Assorted Antiques.
 28539 | Orc:3    | Found a burning altar of Makhleb.
 28846 | Orc:3    | Bought a scroll of magic mapping for 87 gold pieces
 28850 | Orc:4    | Entered Level 4 of the Orcish Mines
 28938 | Orc:4    | Found a roughly hewn altar of Beogh.
 29158 | Orc:4    | Found a staircase to the Elven Halls.
 29634 | Orc:4    | Cast into the Abyss (ogre mage)



So after countless deaths I think I have a character that is doing well. I went to the bottom of the Lair and then decided to do the Orcush Mines. Things were going great until O4. There were a huge amount of ogres, so I kill some and teleport out. Thinking it was just the numbers I rest up and let them spread out. Then comes the ogre mage. The bastard takes one shot at me and BAM I'm in the Abyss!. Can I even survive this?

Re: CIP MiFi Okawaru

Quite possibly. It will depend a bit on luck. Your strategy is to run away from everything, as much as possible; unfortunately, you don't have any means of levitation or flight, so you'll have to go around any deep water or lava. Every square you uncover has a small chance of being a new gate (1 in a few thousand) so uncover as many as possible. Try not to turn aside for loot; while it's tempting, you may find an Executioner near it.

Good luck on finding that manual so early! Really nice. If you don't mind a comment on your skilling, I would suggest you turn off everything but armour till you use it up. You're close enough to min weapon delay that it won't be a big issue, and that extra aptitude will make you're survivability rocket. I also would stop training T&D; you have enough for the rest of the game now.

Re: CIP MiFi Okawaru

You made a big mistake: you were wearing a useless ring of strength and ring of rpois over MR. That mistake is tenfold bigger when fighting a foo like Ogre mage.
Wear MR ring over str asap, in abyss there are lot of foos who cast bad spell and a better MR is mandatory.
Regarding rpois: excluding poison arrow (which only few enemies cast), all poison damage apply a starting damage which is almost negligible. Sure, poison can deal serious damage if stacked but it can easily be solved by the most common potion in game, so there's no need to use it over other resistances in almost every situation.
This is especially true in orc, where foo who can confuse, slow, paralyse and abyss spawn and the only poison source are branded weapon.
And Ogre mage's sting, yes.

Disable M&f, T&D (maybe after you' reach 6) and train armour. If you start to put point in dex (and you should, str is useless after you have reached the min required to use armour without penalties) you should start to train dodging too.

Re: CIP MiFi Okawaru

Others have pointed out your ring and skill focus oversights. Orc:4 is guaranteed to spawn something ridiculous so it's best not to head there on the momentum of Orc:1~3. In this case, you got the "2 ogre magi and 20+ ogres" ending.

You have a dig wand and lots of food. This is perfectly survivable. Just DON'T FIGHT THINGS if possible - you're gonna have to kill the odd thing or two sure but don't stick around to beat up anything that's tough. When you hit things hard (and this Minotaur does hit hard), you make noise that invites other mobs to come investigate. At XL:14, you can't afford to stand around for long after you hit something hard in the Abyss.

Regarding Str: IF Okawaru gifts you a CPA (or you find one in a shop) then you'll want 24 Str. IF. Plate armour is good enough to win a 3-rune game. Put points into Int so you have a chance to cast spells. Heavy armour and -4 aptitude is no excuse for a Mi to not learn Charms even in a 3-rune game.

Oh and be especially wary of Neqoxecs and Smoke Demons.

Plate will win any MiXX game easily, regardless of number of runes.

Re: CIP MiFi Okawaru

...and I died...brainless...Neqoxecs at every turn! There was no running, there was no teleporting. Oh well, I'm getting really good at the start!

Re: CIP MiFi Okawaru

The thing that'll really make you wince is that you're carrying a ring of sustain abilities, which protects from neq int drain.
I am not a very good player. My mouth is a foul pit of LIES. KNOW THIS.
