First time getting 2 runes, where to now?

[Schillernde]

With what I've got right now, what should I try to take on next? I'm honestly terrified of this game worried I'm going to mess this very good run up, any advice, wise ones?

[Sprucery]

If you haven't yet, do Vaults 1 - 4 (+optionally Elf), then Depths (+optionally Crypt) first. Then you should probably get the 3rd rune from either Vaults:5 or Slime.

If you post the whole character dump, you will get more advice.

[Schillernde]

Where do i find the whole character dump? Sorry, I'm a greenhorn.

[4Hooves2Appendages]

It would to get a full dump of the character. Press '#'.

In the absence of any other information, assuming you have cleared Dungeon, Lair and Orc, I would now proceed to do Vaults:1-4, then Depths.

Nice weapon and body armour. Use any enchant armour scrolls you have on the crystal plate.

With that armour you will never be stealthy, so an ordinary pair of +2 boots would be better than what you have now.

That amulet doesn't look very useful. If you have faith, rage, guardian spirit, or regeneration, I would use one of those, in that order. With faith you can happily use heroism and finesse in every difficult fight, you will also get more gifts.

A ring of corrosion doesn't seem terribly useful for ordinary exploration. Wear it in slime of course, otherwise you'd be better off with AC, rC+ or MR+.

It would be interesting to see your skills. Note that heroism gives you 5 levels of axes when you need it, so you really don't need to train the skill past 13.

Invocations, Evocations and Throwing would all be useful to you. Having some strong ranged attacks would be very good for you. Javelins, evokers (Rod of Lightning, Lamp of Fire, etc.) and wands (Acid, Lightning, Ice Blast) are all OK for that.

You won't be casting many spells, so don't worry about memorising anything. That said, Apportation, Butterflies and Animate Skeleton are still very useful and fairly accessible.

Incidentally, wich version are you playing?

[VeryAngryFelid]

I would not use amulet of rage, the character has finesse and a nice weapon. Main problem of the character is low MR so I would use MR ring(s).

Edit. I would train Axes on Hill Orc to 18, +3 aptitude and lack of spells allow it easily

[Schillernde]

Based on forum experience, it's good courtesy to keep something this tremendous in a spoiler, correct?

[VeryAngryFelid]

Code tag is better than spoiler for char dumps. I would train Fighting and Shields, you have enough Evocations already IMHO. Maybe a couple more levels in Invocations for 1% Finesse and longer durations of Heroism/Finesses.

[Schillernde]

Gotcha. I left Evocations on like a doofus, though it really won't hurt, I suppose.

[VeryAngryFelid]

It depends. Large shield slows down your melee attacks before you have Shields 25 so it counts as "hurts" I guess.

[Schillernde]

Welp, Nikola ganked me after I retreated in Elf:3 to heal. It was fun while it lasted!

[VeryAngryFelid]

Sorry. I hope you quaffed potion of resistance vs Nikola, it gives rElec. Elf is very dangerous for low MR characters (MR+++ is a must for comfortable play there), I usually do it after Vaults 4.

Edit. Broad axe of electro was optimal weapon for the character, basically don't use scroll of brand weapon on electro weapons unless you have several of electro weapons.

Mod note: changed spoiler tags to code tags.
