Elven Halls Area
After a period of difficulty where only a few melee characters could get past level 6 of the dungeon I've been able to get down to level 10 or so pretty consistently. Recently I've been able to make some decent spellcasters. Being able to use Orb of Destruction has been one of the most fulfilling things I've come across so far.
Two of my best characters, a CeHu of Okawaru and my most recent character a DEWi of Vehumet have both died in the Elven Halls. The first time I went around a corner and got crushed by Blorg, the second time I got shot by a whole ton of arrows from elven archers. I'm thinking of avoiding the place altogether until I'm level 20 or something. Are there any tips for this area?
The game seems to be mocking me. Nearly every time I make a spellcaster it gives me good heavy armor and two-handed weapons. When playing a fighter it gives me robes and spellbooks. Other than my fighter who came across storm dragon armor on an early dungeon level, and my aforementioned wizard who got a ring of control teleport it's been tough.
