DeCj Advice

Hi,

interested in any skill advice, spell advice, weapon advice on this DeCj. About the furthest I've gotten – cleared Lair, Orc, Dungeon 16. Probably a bit scattered on skill training... Particularly interested in main weapon suggestion and ring suggestion. I haven't been carrying all this stuff around, just grabbed to post here.

Thanks!

Re: DeCj Advice

Your defences suck. Train shields to 5 and fighting+dodging to 13-15.
Learn haste if you can find it, with your skills+wizardry you should be able to. Then controlled blink.

Re: DeCj Advice

Thanks for the advice.

Training transloc to get control blink going and also fighting & dodging. Haven't got a book with Haste yet :( .

I didn't realize the YASD YAVP form was also for CIP so I will probably move this over there.

Re: DeCj Advice

Got Serpentine Rune, killing Lamia & Boris, and am still alive. Would have never made it this far w/o the suggestions: got MDA up to +5, fighting and dodging 13+, controlled blink, and finally found a book with Haste. Thank you both!

I have moved the character over to YASD – I'm not sure where to go next and I think I still need better boots/gloves/cloak.

Re: DeCj Advice

Your defenses still aren't very good. I'd train more dodging now to get up to mid-20 EV naturally. I'd also just go ahead and get 8 skill in short blades, because damn, +11 slaying with a +12 quick blade is absolutely insane.

Take off the ring of magical power and don't wear it again, it has outlived any usefulness it might have had earlier. Ring of shadows would be much better, and with more dodging could push you to high 20s in EV very easily. With phase shift and the other stuff and your decent AC that should be enough for the game, but yeah enchant up your peripheral slots as you get more ?EA scrolls.

Also wearing wizardry just for controlled blink probably isn't worth it in the long run. Leave it on for now, once you have more EV as recommended above, train up enough translocation skill that you can free up the ring slot for something more useful.

Re: DeCj Advice

Are you planning on using the Staff for your channeling, or Sif? I'm not sure which options better in terms of mp channeled back but now that you seem slightly adequately equipped you may want to start diverting exp to Evocations/Invocations.

With Sif you won't have to spend a turn switching weapons (I think you need to wield the Staff to channel)

Re: DeCj Advice

I dunno. Haven't decided re: Sif or Staff. I had pumped up invocations a little before I got the staff. You do need to wield the staff to evoke it. It restores ~9 MP, I think, when it succeeds. It can have nasty feedback. Amulet of Clarity + =Sustain Ab solve that but then those slots are taken.

Re: DeCj Advice

I think that your defences are not that bad. If you get +2 gloves and boots it will bring you to 20 AC at least and then you could train a bit of armour skill, too, but not necessary. Then like and_into said, switch power for shadows, so your EV will be 24 + phase shift+repell misiles for tight spots it will be absolutely ok level of defence, imo. With your set of buffs I think you should be ok for the most part of the game, but if you meet something really dangerous, try to kill it asap with your strongest spells and check the target's resistances in it's desciption.

So the only thing I don't entirely agree with and into is that you need to train your dodging, I think it's not necessary.
But I do agree that you can have some very good damage output with that quickblade if you train 8 short blades. But don't fight anything too dangerous with it. If you see some dangerous monster with a presumably high damage, try to kill quickly with bolt of fire if not resistant or with iron shot/OOD where you can position yourself well otherwise.
