YAVP: NaFi of Chei - OoF floor is bad
I started NaFi to see how bad it is with Chei. I was lucky with early uniques, only Menkare was generated. But still the character is much stronger than expected. Actually I didn't have any problems except with an Orc Priest and even then I didn't get below 28 HP. I used the following tricks:
1) equipped a robe as soon as I got significant Dex bonus from Chei. Na has Deformed Body mutation so wearing unenchanted scale mail gives you 3 AC while unenchanted robe gives you 1 AC but also some EV and more importantly makes you stealthy
2) started training Stealth. Most fights are initiated by me, not by monsters. You can see I even stabbed some monsters:
3) heavy use of Spit Poison
4) Early training of Invocations. Fortunately I didn't need it (stealth allowed to put exclusions on both killer bees packs which I met) but Slouch was invokable really early anyway.
I still can die before Lair of course but it will be my fault, not one of the combo or Chei
