If piety never decresed, what would be the best class/god?
Just something I was thinknig about when I was playing around in Wizard mode.
Let's say that the piety never decresed (apart from doing things that are forbidden, so like using necromutation while worshipping the shinning one would have you kicked out, or desecrating Orcish remains would lower it with Beogh), what would you say it's the most powerul god/class/race combo?
Oh and to be fair, you won't be getting gifts like crazy; the gift timeout is still in effect but you can use any power that requires piety without worry.
You also have to raise the piety to 200 yourself (so no worshipping Vehemut and getting all six books right away).
I'd go with some sort of race (any really bar demi gods for obvious reasons) and go with Kiku.
Once you get animate dead/twisted resurrection, you could basically summon corpses as much as needed, raise them, feast on the ones that you don't use when you get hungry and pretty much steamroll with a never ending undead army.
Plus in places like Zot, you'd get dragons so... it'd be pretty powerful.
Oh, one last thing about the gift timeout, to prevernt blatant scumming, you'd still have to do things that reduce the gift timeout (so no constantly waiting as a mummy with Yred to be given unlimited bone dragons).
Anyone else have a more broken combo that the Kiku example? And can anyone see any flaw in it?
