did a zig before the way up. being able to firestorm single guys on screen and never run out of MP is basically cheating.

nice my last zig clearer character did one pretty easily and then died horribly in tomb lol.

The last floor of the zig was the only part of late game I almost died in. Rough ghost floor. I think being in lichform and not being able to drink potions saved me cause I had to think of another way to get out of a situation than just drink heal wounds

A good day for HOMo's

code:

Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup version 0.27.1-34-g3ba077fa99 (webtiles) character file.

Game seed: 12505827300317836051

1812973 rodbeard the Hill Orc Barricade (level 27, 218/218 HPs)
             Began as a Hill Orc Monk on Jan 21, 2022.
             Was the Champion of Makhleb.
             Escaped with the Orb
             ... and 3 runes on Jan 22, 2022!
             
             The game lasted 05:02:04 (69157 turns).

I pretty much tabbed through the entire game thanks to some very lucky early game finds:

code:

 H - the ring of Tolarel (right hand) {Wiz Drain rElec rF++ rN+++ Dex-5}
   (You bought it in a shop on level 2 of the Dungeon)

code:

A - the +8 demon whip "Dragon's Tongue" (weapon) {vamp, Str+3 Int+4}
   (You acquired it on level 8 of the Dungeon)

Could have probably gone pretty far into the end game but it's been years since I've done any of it so I figured I'd just take the easy win.

Yeah I did the same thing yesterday I had 3 runes and was all set for what would have been my first ever win streak and decided it would be a good idea to switch over to the shining one and attempt to get more runes. I got blown apart by an Orb of Destruction while running away from 2 packs of Okawaru wrath summoned packs.

my standard okawaru -> tso path usually has me clear out the crypt after switching to tso. you'll have full piety just from killing everything and the crypt is pretty narrow so oka's pennace spawns usually don't get a good jump on you.

My biggest problem was I was only doing well because I was using finesse and heroism to demolish everyone before they could reach me with a +11 triple crossbow. I had no business switching gods.
