CIP:Another DEFE Thread!
Here's my latest. I was surprised when I looked down at lair:1 and had fireball at hungerless
I have put some XP into dodging for survivability, but apart from that I'm leaving everything going into fire, conjuration and spellcasting. I'm led to believe this is better than what I did before? (Trained all sorts of crap, earth magic, poison magic, translocations, necromancy etc)
I bought the spell book that had haste in it, then realised I couldn't learn it. Why is this?
I learned call imp to make meat shields if i need to. Blink for obvious reasons. Iskenderun's Mystic / Magic dart for fire immune stuff (Dart was for crimson imps early game, Iskenderuns will be for dragons etc im sure, Vehumet gifted it to me, I thought it'd be rude not to learn a non-elemental conjuration spell when I am ploughing XP into conjuration)
Repel missiles / Apportation for obvious reasons. Past that, I'm sticking with "killing it with fire, if it doesnt die, kill it with fire some more"
Today's barrage of questions (hopefully not actually too bad)
1. What do I need to do to be able to learn haste?
2. the +1 robe "Eblefecs" (worn) {Dex-3 Int+4 Dam-6} Is the best robe I have, agreed? I'm not much worried about Dex-3 or Dam-6 as I don't melee and anything that gets next to me (For dex to matter) I'll hopefully just blink away.
3. K - an uncursed large brass ring {tried} I got from a scroll of acquirement where I requested jewellery, I wanted Rpois or rF / rC... I have yet to ID it.
4. What should I use my remaining scroll of acquirement on? I can't think of much I really need? Maybe if I choose armor I'll get a decent wizards hat, seeing as there doesnt seem to be a Gastronok in this game. Thoughts from people more experienced with scrolls of disappointment?
5. I take it the Ring of fire will increase my spell power greater than ring of INT+4?
6. Wands. Not really needed, seeing as it should have been "killed with fire" before I need to resort to a wand. Correct? I'll keep the healing, apart from that I figure drop the rest?
Thanks! Wish me luck! (And no damn ettins waiting next to stair cases)
