YACD - Advice wanted

I've got a punishing melee weapon in my MoD, but without sustain Str, I'd have a hard time going hand to hand with Morgoth. However, I also have a good collection of slay evil ammo and x2 shooting speed with an xBow. I think I just need a bit more perm speed and I can think about the final battle. I am a bit less worried about destruct and banish now that I have WoG, but I'd like to have more of those as well.

You could swap out devotion for sustenance, which would give you the sustain you want and leave you at 18/200 in wisdom, which is generally sufficient, IIRC.

Does standing on a glyph of warding help?

You have Hammerhand stored at home; I assume thats because you intend to use it in the final battle ? If you really dont want to fight the last fight without ESP, your best bet is probably to hold out for a cloak with the property. Killing a couple more Ds or Us would also yield another level or 3.

I had planned on using the Elven ring for ESP, among it's other benefits. However, I had given some thought to wearing two RoS to boost the perm speed. I think I will try to hit CL50 before descending further in hopes of finding more options.
