Finished Spider Nest, unsure about what to do next

I'm doing a HEWz and have managed fairly well until now, despite an annoying lack of rPois and SInv. I even managed to bumble my way past N:4 somehow, managing to tank the ghost moths in the vault, keeping them inside my clouds of freezing vapour. However, I am unsure about where to go next.

I have finished E:2, A:3, and D:15, so I think my most realistic options are either A:4 or V:1. However, I am concerned about my lack of rPois and SInv, especially the latter is gonna be really hard to deal with soon. For rPois there is a leather armour I can get, but I am unsure if trying to wear armour is worthwhile with my low strength. Had a hard time figuring out exactly how this works too, as the link between aevp and spellcasting failure isn't listed on the knowledge bot (as far as I can tell).

I am also unsure about how to progress with my skills. I am hoping to get Tornado online soon-ish, but I also want to increase spellcasting and dodge, as I am rather fragile, and hunger is a bit of an issue with the channeling I am doing.

Any advice on how to proceed would be much appreciated.

Re: Finished Spider Nest, unsure about what to do next

Don't worry about rPois or SInv, you can manage without them. Use that enchant armour scroll on the gloves (unless you have a dragon hide to enchant).

You have 3 potions of invisibility. You should be able to do A:4, as most things there don't see invis.

You don't need Tornado and trying to get it can be harmful (the exp is better spent elsewhere). You can win the game with the spells you already have.

Train Armour to 4.4 to gain one point of AC. Any helmets around? Or any other amulets?

Robe is fine (but +2 would be nice), steam dragon armour would be great. You can use a leather armour or a mottled dragon armour (and raise str next).

Don't train more Spellcasting unless you really need more spellslots (and in that case consider dropping some spell, e.g. Call Imp).
