I'm actually absurdly proud of this little lowbie gal. I spent like 6 attempts trying to get an Hera-demigod hexmage off the ground. Not sure why it has been so difficult - The beginning game is pretty painful for hexmages, and maybe the heavy xp penalty just keeps you in that painful zone so much longer. Anyway, mostly wanting to play around with demigod abilities. Will see how the mana regen, etc stack out versus races with more utilitarian or damage abilities.

my early game strategy is to cast either cure light wounds or demonic aura right before engaging an enemy. the spell i pick depends on the opponent, for low damage dealers with higher hp (novice priest, novice ranger, kobold, snaga) i cast cure light wounds and pound on them with my dagger while my hp keep regenerating. for high damage dealers (anything with 3 melee attacks per round or faster than normal speed) i cast demonic aura and let them scorch themselves.

maybe our play styles are different, but for me those two spells make the early game go pretty well

My issue has been more post-stinking cloud with demigods, I think. The class is just squishy enough to have a high risk of death in case you should trigger a rune, get surprised by a warg pack, confused by a mindcrafter on the edge of the screen. One of those failed attempts was due to running out of teleport scrolls while bouncing back and forth between large enemy groups on the wilderness map around town. In the early, early game I tend to use cure light wounds AFTER closing so as to conserve mana. I try not to close with Freesia, novice warriors, etc at all if I can help it. But yeah, I also use demonic aura, etc. I don't know - I think just waiting to find an enchanted sling / dagger in the shops helps a good bit.

Took Fell Magic at level 20; not sure it did anything. Bonus to direct damage maybe? Anyway, died after a damned annoying fight bouncing between a radiant kavu who I couldn't damage much before Vampiric Drain drained my mana, a carrion, and an ogrillon horde. Think I have reached the end of patience atm regarding hexmages.
