    3.1.0: Some advice before going any further?

    I'm currently on DL49 and would like to know if there are any resists I should really get before going any further. Some comments on my kit would also be appreciated.

    Thank you for any advice.

    There is no point in using the amulet of sustenance. You should go sell it so you won't be tempted to use it. Use trickery instead. Then you can replace the ring of poison resistance. You could go with sustain body if you cannot help yourself, but a ring of con or damage or speed would be better. IIUC, elemental rings now [in 3.1] have the effect of branding your melee weapon while worn even though it is nowhere in their descriptions.

      switched to Trickery and a ring of damage +8

      Now, what would be my chances against a Lesser Titan?
      It just so happens that I stumbled upon a Giant pit.

      Could be interesting!?

        Even with RConf, Titans are more effort than they are worth. Teleport them away. And if you don't have electricity immunity, you should probably teleport Storm Giants as well.
        (Keeping hold of rods and wands is more important.)

        In fact, I usually just avoid Giant pits. Giants drop less stuff than Orcs...
