Let's play equipment tetris!
Ok, so this is what I'm looking at:
As you can see, I've been blessed/cursed with an overabundance of good equipment.
So I keep waffling about what equipment I should use, and what swapping things I should retain. The cloak gives me more AC and evokable invis on tap which is helpful, but so is rMsl, and I have evokable invis available on two different rings.
Evokable blink is also nice, but the ring I have it on isn't generally useful, so I'm mostly interested in keeping that as a swap.
For reference, there's no evasion rings, and the only plain protection ring is -3
There is also a
which is vaguely tempting, however I'm already overloaded with choice at this point.
There's no robe of the archmagi (which would probably be my first choice for body armour for this character) and the only other ego robes are magic resistance, protection from fire, cold and positive energy. There's a smattering of ego body armours of other sorts, but nothing that's particularly tempting (the acid dragon armour could be swapped out with swamp or fire dragon armour, but neither of those seemed especially appealing, but those are also on the table)
Since I'm a Vine stalker, bonus MP is more valuable than it would be with something else
I've loaded myself up with all the likely candidates, but playing equipment tetris is making me tired
My objectives are:
Keep my evokables available,
Maximize my defenses,
Discard anything I don't need to free up some inventory slots.
Also as an aside there's a
on the floor, for when I feel like dumping a crap ton of XP into shields, but that's for later (if at all)
