YASD: FoFi of Zin
After realizing I played Zin wrong I decided to try again. This time I selected Fi for 2 reasons:
1) To avoid training Stealth and Dodging
2) To see how weak Fo is without large rocks
(Un)fortunately I could not check second point as I found plate armour on D1, rPois ring on D2 immediately after killing first Adder and Morningstar on D3. I am sure I would die (or shaft from) to a pack of Killer Bees on D7 without rPois (Zin's piety was too low for Vitalization), even with rPois I had to use 2 !curing and 1 !healing. I am using Recite in almost every battle now. Crazy Yiuf gave me cloak of preservation and I found amulet of faith so the game was not that hard until entrance to Lair on D10: Centaur Warrior, Elephant, Hill Giant and multiple Yaks on a level with stone walls. D11 is even worse - I got Erolcha one tile away from me and was lucky to resist 3 times her spells while fighting her, then a hydra which was killed by 2 zaps of cold, 1 zap of lightning and Morningstar and then this:
I was slightly wounded when Nessos entered LoS and poisoned me, I cast Vitality and got down to 27 HP, my next action was Imprison (was at 1%) and upstairs were not too far so I survived despite imprisonment ended too fast and Nessos found me again. Still looking for Orcish Mines, perhaps I should train more Invocations to have prison stay longer.
