Going for 7th rune or orb?
I'm now diving a DSEE with Jiyva, and all has been well. Now I got Decaying, Serpentine, Slimy, Silver, Abyssal and Iron runes, and cleared pretty much where I can safely go to, except Hive.
Before this, I never had experience about challenging Tomb, Pan or Hells.
Strengths:
I have shadow stalker 3 and demonic guardian 3 mutations, and both are awesome. These mutations grants me great chance not to become overnumbered. Moreover, my IMB and Iron shot hits everything in LOS
I can reliably haste myself, and semi-controlled blink. Escaping is probably not a huge problem.
My gears boosts a lot with stats, including Int and EV.
Weaknesses:
My fighting style relies heavily on mana. Sublimation of blood is available for another $1050. Yes, I had a hard time just to enter Dis:7, because I must spend some mana on Hell effects.
My source of teleportation is rather limited. Teleport self is within reach, but I have only 6 levels of spells left.
My source of healing is also limited. I didn't find any wands of healing during the race with hungry jellies, and only several potions of heal wounds.
My resistance is poor. I can swap rings for a single threat, but things can get much worse if elemental attacks become mixed.
Cool experiences:
Reading a ?holy word inside a volcano and crash.
Had Int over 40 with help from Jiyva.
Entered an extremely nice abyss that gives me abyssal rune within 1k turns.
Blown up the wall of Dis:7, lured Dispater out of the castle and then stole the Iron rune.
For now, it is rather attractive to do another branch, including Tomb, Hell other than Dis, Pan, and a $3880 Ziggurat.
On the other hand, fetching the orb and escape sounds not bad, since any of the remaining branches is rather risky, and this can be my first win on CAO, also my second win ever.
Any ideas whether I'm able to do any bigger challenges?
This is the chardump.
