There are no monsters in sight!

Even though Djinni are pure magical essence, they do pretty well as a magicless berserker.

I already have a berserker 4 rune victory with a Kobold, so I want to pull off a 15 rune berserker run. With that in mind, I have a few questions regarding how to proceed.

1. Armour is already maxed and fighting is next. Since I have only a Glaive, I've left Polearms at 20, but with this kind of character, I'm not sure what to work on after fighting. My instinct says dodging, but does dodging really work when you're so heavily armoured? After Fighting is maxed, what should my next skills be?

2. What weapon should I be using? I'm thinking it's between these three:

  Code:

the -1,+6 glaive of Eternal Harmony {venom, rElec rPois MR++ SInv Stlth++}

  Code:

the +5,+8 glaive of the Guard (weapon) {elec, +Rage AC+5 SInv}

  Code:

a bardiche

Right now, it seems the second option is the obvious best. The enchant is pretty good and the AC bonus is awesome. The only reason I'm even considering the first one is because MR is so useful, especially since my character doesn't have naturally good MR. The bardiche is obviously not worth much right now, but if I found a scroll of vorpalise weapon and count get it super enchanted, would the bardiche be better than the Glaive of the Guard even with that AC bonus?

3. I've got lots of Acquirement. What should I wish for?

[crate]

You absolutely should train dodging, you have good dex, it will get you good ev (in fact it is already giving you good ev!). In fact dodging probably gives you better returns on your xp right now than fighting since you have it at 10 already.

You should use glaive of the guard and an antimagic glaive/bardiche. I would honestly prefer a glaive for now on your character.

btw you probably want to use not-awful gloves instead of those awful gloves you are wearing

3. I've got lots of Acquirement. What should I wish for?

wand or armour, probably wand

[zugundertherug]

1. I'd train evocations after fighting. Djinni have a good aptitude for it, plus your main weakness as a melee character is that you have to close in on your target. This will cause problems in pan/hell as you'll be running into tormenting creatures frequently. With high evocations and some of the new evokables (phial of floods is the best followed by lamp of fire imo) you can kill or wound/distract via summons threats at a distance. However as a djinn you'll need to be aware of the slowdown due to hovering if you find/buy some phials of floods. Dodging is also good since you aren't in super heavy armor.

2. The second weapon definitely. Remember that you always have Trog's hand to boost MR if it's necessary. Odds are that eventually Trog will gift you an antimagic bardiche which will become your primary weapon once you max polearms out.

3. Plenty of options. Wand is always a solid choice, staff will give you a rod since you have evocations as your highest magic skill. The cold rod is super useful because of freezing cloud, rod of inacurracy is also suprisingly good. Jewellry or armour if you want to gamble.

[diviton]

Okay evo and dodging

So I kinda decided against antimagic early on since wielding it lowers my HP. I don't know by how much but early on when I was first gifted one it was significant enough that it turned me off.

[crate]

Antimagic will save you more hp than it costs against things where it is worth using.
You should absolutely carry an antimagic weapon.
You do not want to wield it all the time, hence why I said you want to use glaive of the guard and an antimagic weapon

[diviton]

Okay, my HP goes from 245 to 221. Not too bad but it pains me to do that. Still, I have an antimagic bardiche. Its +0+3 right now but I haven't enchanted it at all. What kind of scenarios would I prefer an antimagic bardiche vs my glaive of the guard? Any tips on effectively using both?

[diviton]

Ha! I used acquirement for a wand and got heal wounds. Immediately after I found another in the enchanted forest. I've got Elf and Slime next but I also have a trove asking for a +3 gold dragon armour. I have a hide which I don't want (I like IDA better on a Djinni).

So I also have exactly four enchant armour scrolls so I can get in the trove. My question is if its worth it. I wont be able to enchant my other gear but frankly most of it is fully enchanted. So trove or nah?

[crate]

you prefer antimagic against things that scare you because they have spells
you use glaive of the guard against other things

personally i would open the trove but it doesnt matter, you can lava the enchant armour scrolls if you want and do just fine

6 runes down. All that's left is Pan and Hell. Pan is next because I hate Hell. (Although for once, Gehenna won't be my least favorite branch)

Just cleared Tomb before saving. It wasn't too bad since I've done it four times before. It's so miserable the first couple of times, but the predictability of it makes it very manageable with caution. Still, this is Crawl and anything can happen and happen it did. On Tomb:3 as I was stair dancing the tormenting mummies, I took two quick torments before I finally killed the Greater Mummy, which dropped a death curse of a reaper. No big deal, right? Well, it was wielding a scythe of distortion which popped me next to a ton of dangerous enemies including an executioner, tentacled monstrosity, starcursed mass and other popcorn, before a lich and angel showed up. With all my gear cursed, it made preparing for this very annoying. I could have just tele'd but the exit was right there and I felt like I could make it...but I couldn't. The path was blocked and I was encased in baddies. I got paralyzed by the starcursed masses and after taking significant damage, I frightenedly put on my stasis amulet. Then I realized I needed to remove it to teleport away...then I realized it was cursed. I got down to 11HP at the worst moment but I managed to pull off the teleport and escape the Abyss. Tomb wasn't too tough after that.

My main skills are maxed, so not really sure what else to level. I could level stealth, I guess, but I think armour like this makes it kinda pointless. Maybe not though?

Don't you want to train some ranged weapon? It could be useful if have a holy longbow or crossbow of penetration somewhere.

11 runes down. Just the Hell branches to go. Accomplished two things in Pan that I have never done. First, I cleared the Holy Pan floor for the first time, which has always proven too difficult for me. Lastly, I voluntarily walked right into Hellion Island and took my time killing each one. Djinni are so nice. ^_^

My 9th win overall and 5th with all runes. Djinni are stupidly powerful. Fire and hellfire immunity + 15% torment reduction made the extended game so much easier. None of the Pan or Hell lords really threatened me. Even though I initially wasn't keen on using Antimagic because it reduced my HP, I quickly noticed how effectively it was at negating enemy magic. Very good call, crate. I don't think any of the countless Fiends I encountered were ever able to torment me after I landed my first blow on them.

Trog ended up being surprisingly useful for extended. Brother in Arms helped me pile on damage against the Lords and Trog's Hand was a godsend in Hell. When I was losing HP and couldn't afford to just sit around and wait for it to return, TH got me back to shape in no time. I zerked a few times too, but more often than not, I felt it too risky. Still a fun run, despite the fact that I almost feel like Djinni are cheating.

Oh and I mastered crossbows, though I never fired a single bolt.

[rchandra]

congrats.

Hmm, seems like 15-rune berserkers are losing more and more skills to train (stabbing, traps). we might have to start using a ranged weapon _and_ throwing :)

[diviton]

Ranged weapons just don't fit the theme of being a berserker. Just gotta beat things over the head.
