YAVP OpFi of Oka and TSO -or- 8 AC Sucked

[pratamawirya]

My first Op win, and my first win (still offline, sadly) since a long time.

Yeah, 8 AC was a bit painful. I was hoping to find more AC rings, but alas. On the other hand, rods of inaccuracy (I got three) totally rocked.

Op is great when you finally get things going. They have good aptitudes overall, which is great.

Eventually I learned Statue Form just for the cool factor ... nah, for the AC too. I can say that I enjoyed statue octopodes as much as I enjoyed statue trolls.

Oka was pretty helpful this time; his holy double sword meant I could bless another weapon with TSO (that's why I had that holy crossbow, even though I barely needed it since I wielded that cool artefact shield). I also used a vampiric double sword (again, Oka's) in Zot. Zot:5 was pretty horrible with an endless barrage of fire orbs, though.
