Depths (6/6) D:16
I wasn't too thrilled with the new dungeon layout, since it meant less dungeon floors and potentially less xp by the time I get to Zot. So I decided to go with the easy combo (DDBe) and see what the depth looks like, in addition to getting a 15-rune DD win.
For me, I felt the depths were too densely packed with monsters. I often faced 8-9 monsters whenever I went down the stairs. And of course, not a group of orcs or kobolds but a pack of iron trolls, stone giants, liches, and ettins. Felt like it would be quite challenging to engage in such kind of situations as a caster.
Besides that, my only other point of frustration was torment. Having slow healing is really abysmal when you have 3~4 greater mummies and mummy priests waiting downstairs. I guess that's when recharge devices comes handy. Don't think I ever used it when I played as a DD healer, but this time used it 7~8 times to make up for the lost health.
