[This was the comp character for May.]
I am still stuck with the amulet of doom, what a pain. Still stuck as
a dark elf, despite 4 attempts at metamorph. Screwed up and got my
last 2 ?rCurse burnt on the ground last level, but it was probably
time to start id'ing flavors anyway.
It is [was] a comp, so I allowed myself hack-n-back against colossi.
In retrospect, I wish I had stayed true to my principles, but then
perhaps one might have forced me to use consumables I needed for
survival later.
I was starting to wonder if I could survive, but I think the gamemaker
was Barukkheled at 2950'. I used Hammerhand for a while, but tossed
it on the current level after getting Tulkas.
Nearly done with stat gain now at 3300'.
Usually *bands are 99% tactics and 1% strategy, unless you play with
turn limits, but the combination of ironman with that frigging amulet
of doom has given me lots and lots of hard strategic decisions. This
game has required all of my skill, as well as a bit of luck.
There's a vault with some folks that may be too tough. I figured
I should post while still in a good mood.
