Bribe Branch shouldn't work on Orb run spawns

[Rast]

FR: Bribe branch shouldn't work on Orb run spawns. It trivializes most or all of the orb run for a relatively low price.

This is separate from the discussions of "should bribe branch even exist?" and "should orb run even exist in its current form?". As long as they do exist, it's silly for Gozag guys to have a free pass from D:15 to D:1.

I think once I heard someone suggest Tomb is easier in orb run because of bribed pan lords. I'm not sure if that's actually true, but it's kind of hilarious to imagine.

That being said, is orb run not already trivial the overwhelming majority of the time anyway, regardless of your god choice? Oh no, something scary spawned... guess I'll walk away or use Tele/blink/haste because the whole floor is empty and I'm leaving and don't need exp or any of my consumables.

Don't really see how this differs from using bribe branch anywhere else.

I think there are three approaches:
1. Bribe branch works as current
2. Bribe branch doesn't work on orb run spawns
3. Bribe branch doesn't work once you have the orb

I think #1 is the worst approach. #3 would be easier to code, but it would add a restriction to the ability that would be complicated to explain. #2 would be reasonably intuitive but might be tricky to implement.

Imo if you have enough gold for bribing Orb run, you have played suboptimally and should have used more gold earlier (e.g. for bribing Zot repeatedly).
