| 8 Stealth. 2) 4 Spellcasting, 8 Hexes. 3) 3 Fighting, 8 Dodging. 4) 8 Short
| Blades, 12 Stealth. 5) 6 Fighting/Spellcasting, 10 Short Blades/Hexes, 15
| Dodging/Stealth. 6) 10 Fighting, 27 Stealth, and whatever spell skills you want.
| / SPELLS: Use Ensorcelled Hibernation when possible. Use Confuse against rC+
| monsters
22:45:31 Sequell | or if you want a higher success chance. Other starting spells are decent but
| unnecessary. Invisibility is the best spell in the game if you find it. Other
| good spells include Haste, Repel Missiles, Dispel Undead, Apportation, Blink,
| Passage of Golubria, Controlled Blink. / GODS: Ideally you want a god who helps
| with hard-to-stab monsters. Some good choices: Kiku (pain melee, zombies), Dith
22:45:31 Sequell | (shadow step, shadow form), Jiyva (slimify), Lugonu (corruption, disto melee),
| Makhleb (greater demons), Ashenzari/Vehumet (conjurations). / WEAPONS: Use short
| blades, stab high-HP monsters with a dagger. For regular melee, early on look
| for elec, draining, or venom weapons. Later look for a quick blade and/or pain
| brand a weapon with Kiku. Distortion is nice also. If you can't find a quick
| blade
22:45:31 Sequell | and want better melee, demon whips are reasonable. Oh, and get a buckler. STATS:
| Raise Int or Dex.

I'd have to disagree. It turns every corpse(for which you otherwise have no use unless you go Necro) into gold/piety(Sp synergy), and gold distractions provide free stabbing opportunities(En synergy)

I just don't like stabbers and spellcasters, I guess.
