Chaos Knight?
Xom keeps doing such straightforward harm- bad mutations, stat loss, hostile demons- that they're constantly burning resources to stay alive, and his whimsy's a death sentence in dangerous situations. I knew Xom was designed as a challenge god, but I wasn't expecting to be hobbled quite so badly.
I had notions of suffering regular inconveniences in exchange for great rewards. Can Chaos Knight actually be a valid choice (I do realise it's recommended to no-one!) that I just haven't got my head around, or is it really this cruel?
I've been trying heavy melee-focused races, mostly Minotaurs, in the hope that random stat loss and mutations are less likely to spoil my build. (And the extra HP may let me survive a little more craziness.)
And and all advice on or experience of worshipping Xom would be welcome.
You bludgeon Dowan!
This raw flesh tastes great!
