YASD: SEIE
I've been playing a bunch of SEIE of Kiku, though I haven't gotten one much past lair. Right when I get to the point where I'm feeling not so fragile I die to hubris. This time it was Nergalle's draining attack. It was just bad play, I was stair dancing between Orc:2 and Orc:3 and she followed me up.
This game I went for Simulacrum, which is absolutely awesome. I got it online in Lair, used it to clear down do Lair:7, then a scroll of acquirement gave me a vampiric lajatang... I was so happy to get this awesome rare weapon and I think it's better than simulacrum. Regardless, I died moments later. But for those few minutes I had it, it really rocked.
Does this character look ok, skill/item-wise or is there something I'm doing wrong? After getting staves to 14 I would have worked on dodging and fighting for a bit, then try for haunt. Does this seem right? Any tips on playing this kind of hybrid elementalist of kiku? Is there a better combo for what I'm trying to do, or is this fine and I just need to not die foolishly?
