CIP OpVM Potential All-Runer

Hello! I'm blackcustard. I play on CDO trunk. I've won four times: a four rune (abyss), a three rune, a five rune (abyss, slime), and a six rune (abyss, slime, tomb). (Plus the first two lair branches and vaults). I've cleared the Vestibule once, but I've never been in Pan or the Hells proper. I think I'm going to try to go like 13-15 runes this time. Shooting for an all-runer, but I'm going to skip anything too awful.

My character is an octopode hybrid. It's primary methods of killing things are conjurations (IMB, pcloud, battlesphere, venom bolt, iood, LCS) and melee (+9,+8 vampiric executioner's axe with a bunch of slaying, plus constriction).

I've cleared D, Lair, Orc, Elf, Swamp (except Nikola on 2), Spider, Vaults, Crypt (except two vaults), and Slime.

My plan is Zot to 4, Abyss, Tomb, Pan, Hells, Zot5 and win. I'll poke around in Blade at some point too, because Blade is fun.

In terms of learning spells:
I'm going to pick up stoneskin and abjuration (6 bars power with no summoning skill). If I get Icestorm (see below) I'll replace stoneskin with Ozocubu's armour and condensation shield. I could get ignite poison, silence, bolt of fire, parrow, or clightning online for almost nothing. Fire/icestorm are also in reach, but they will require some investment, and they are redundant I think. I also have access to great translocations and hexes if I wanted to pick up a new school.

In terms of forgetting spells:
I would happily amnesia OTR and sting if that was ever worth it. I could also part with cure poison, though that has marginal use. I like having Ctele as a spell, but I have it in ring form as well. Vbolt, pcloud, and Alistair's won't be as useful after Zot, but they are always good to have.

In terms of XP:
1. I'm going to get my last level of dodging, but after that ...
2. More melee. I definitely want more axes. I only have 15.
After that ...
3. More blasters??? Fire/icestorm as mentioned above. This seems redundant to me though.
4. Fighting??? For better melee and more HP.
5. A new school??? Transloc (I already have Ctele and blink)? Hexes for cool stuff? Summoning for stronger abjuration and meat shields?
6. Evocations??? For CBoE I found in slime.

I'm looking for:
1. Information that will help me in Pan and the Hells.
2. Advice about how to use the remaining experience, especially all that Zot XP.
3. Mockery and snark about my poor character build. XD

Re: CIP OpVM Potential All-Runer

Nice weapon! Shame Vampiric is useless against demons...

I'm pretty sure Alistairs won't work against demons, and I doubt Venom Bolt is going to do much either- I'd ditch them both.

Poison Cloud+Ignite poison might work against popcorn enemies as a Poor-Man's Firestorm, but it sounds like it's going to be very slow. And while you might get away with that in Pan, being slow to kill things in Hell will murder you. To death. Iskenderun's Whatevers have the same problem- they can kill lower demons sure, but so can your axe. Good candidates for amnesia.

As far as another spell school goes, I would advise getting enough Necromancy to get Borgjnors Revivification castable(assuming you have a Necronomicon.) That said, Translocations for the spell Controlled Blink is also a good idea- the difference between Ctele+Blink and Controlled Blink is considerable, especially in branch ends with -Ctele.

Right now your spell list looks like you'll have trouble dealing with large numbers of demons in a MP efficient fashion. If you can get a Storm online, I would do it. With certain high-end demons, you want to kill them as soon as they enter LOS. Getting close enough to use Crystal Spear, waiting for Orb of Destruction, or having to chop through meatshields gives them ample opportunity to Torment or Hellfire you, and you can't run forever. Foo Storm isn't a necessity, but it will make your life much easier.

As for the CBoE...9/10 times I prefer using a Staff of Channelling, but the Crystal Ball does have it's uses. As a rule, don't use it without more than 50% Mana, clarity, SusAb, and at least 15 Evocations.

I would actually consider keeping Stoneskin, because Pan and Hell have a lot of enemies that will melt Ozcubu's Armor and Condensation Shield. I'm personally a fan of Statue Form for Hell, but that's not standard procedure by any means.

Sorry if my post is somewhat incoherent- I recently won a 15-rune Firestormer of Vehu and a 7-rune Icestormer (Also of Vehu) and frankly, there's a lot of stuff going on in extended and I'm no true veteran of it, except in the sense that I probably have PTSD.

:lol: That's one of the best lines I've read on this forum. :-)

Back on topic: You've made me want to play an octopode. I think spellcasting is a bit high, but at least you've got lots of slots now.

I agree with wizzzargh. Venom will get useful from now. I'd also say that poison arrow is quite useful, as that does affect poison-immune things.
Probably you do need a big effect spell. I love the storms. Possibly a nice alternative would be shatter, as you've then got LCS to deal with flying thingies.
Shatter is also nice for getting some of the nastier runes. Don't like the map layout? Well, change it!
Summon butterflies is useful to block LOS.
I think Pan is mostly easier than hells, due to the hell effects, but you've got to not be wanting to stash every few minutes.
I assume you know that you want to "dive" in the hells, getting to the bottom asap as that's where all the loot is.
Tomb is hard.
Necromutation is useful in many circumstances: No hunger, cold, torment, and neg resistance. (Remember it cuts off sublimation and regen).

Re: CIP OpVM Potential All-Runer

I can't really swap for channeling. Sublimation works but without the necro investment it drains HP pretty fast.

If I had access to summon butterflies I would have learned it immediately.

Necromutation isn't happening. That's a level 8 spell in necromancy/transmutations, and I have 0 skill in both. The necromancy would buy me other useful spells along the way, but the transmutations would just be for necromutation. Wouldn't be worth it even if I knew it were possible.

Borg or CBlink are a possibilities. Based on some wiztesting, I can get either online with around 15 in their respective skill. I have 10 charms already, so it might be possible to pick up death's door eventually if I go for borg. Plus the necro route would enhance sublimation.

I think I would prefer firestorm over icestorm or shatter.

I wouldn't want firestorm until pan. I think I'll get the melee first, with some of Zot's experience. Then I'll get the firestorm with Tomb's experience. Leftovers can go into necro I think. I'll probably pick up ignite poison, and replace venom bolt with bolt of fire.

Re: CIP OpVM Potential All-Runer

Sounds good to me. Personally I would get the fire skills before the melee, but if you take my suggestion there, it probably guarantees you'll die in a situation where 2 more HP would have saved you. ;-)
That should also cut the food cost, just in case that gets to be an issue (without necromut; and I don't see gourmand).
Maybe some other cheap summon spell would be useful? Shadow creatures can also be powerful in Zot.

The other thing I might add in terms of Pan advice is don't forget that the entry position on each level is random, so you can suddenly appear next to Cerebov. (This just happened to me!) Heal fully and use some buffs before entering a new level.

Re: CIP OpVM Potential All-Runer

I got really dissapointed by Poison Magic in extended (Green Draconian of Vehumet) and forgot both Poison Arrow and Poisonous Cloud. They are ineffective against rPois monsters. Yes, even Poision Arrow is ineffective, only 30% damage is applied to immune monsters..

Re: CIP OpVM Potential All-Runer

The way I see it, there are 2 directions to go for this character:
- kill fiends by melee. You'll want Axes, Nec and Tloc first.
- kill fiends by nukes. You'll want firestorm and CBoE first.

Plan A makes Hell easier (except branch endings), Plan B makes Pan easier. A large part of dealing with Hell reinforcements is to realise you get 1 free action before they can do anything - meaning you get 1 turn to move to position and 1 free attack before they begin to react. I don't remember seeing more than 1 fiend spawn at once, so melee can get in range and kill a fiend while giving it only 1~2 turns to do anything to you.

Re: CIP OpVM Potential All-Runer

Cleared Zot to 4, got the Abyssal rune, and cleared Tomb.

I ended up amnesiaing vbolt, OTR, and Alistair's. I picked up Borg first, but then went for Death's Door instead of Cblink. I got Borg with Zot XP. Then I got Death's Door part way through tomb. I also picked up some more spellcasting for slots and some more axes. My spell casting is ridiculous right now, but I used everything I have in Tomb except CTele and Sting. Pcloud and ignite poison might not have been worth keeping, but I think I got enough use out of the flame clouds.

Tomb's loot sucked ass. I'm a little low on food (how the hell did that happen), check the dump, I'm holding it all. Don't miss the two porridge potions though. Also, no cure muts around. Ugh. The -10%s are nasty.

Anyway, gotta decide what to do next: Zot5 or Pan. I'll figure that out a little later. (Or I could go do Wizard's Prison/Nikola/Blade/Hell XD.)

For now I'm just gonna focus on getting axes nice and high. Like Psieye said, killing fiends in melee I think.

EDIT: Looks like I forgot about this thread. I won with six runes. I did some Pan, cleared Cerebov's level, poked into his castle, and then ran. I did not try for the fiery rune, though in retrospect I could have gotten it easily with absolutely zero risk. CTele, Tele, DDoor, Apport, Tele.
