Somehow this one made it to 750 feet ~4000 turns quicker than my last one. Had even worse artifact luck on this one. Not sure what I did differently. I fully explored every level on both runs, and only took one shaft down. No false floors.

I'm beginning to really appreciate heavy armor. Trivializes wargs and easterlings, which are annoying not because they're dangerous but because they often come in packs and slowly whittle you down (wargs hurt, smash doors, easterlings are rather tanky for when they show up, if you get stalled out by easterlings and find yourself sandwiched between an easterling and a troll, orc captain, or warg, you could be in serious trouble).

It's probably worth spending ~1000 XP on archery, at least on elves with high starting dexterity. I don't like doing it as much on smiths since their XP is already spread out thin, but it's likely still worth it.

Anyone have tips for Uldor? I have a shuffle I can do to slowly whittle him down, but it's super inefficient and luck-reliant. Around every 10 turns, you get a chance to hit him once. I know if you get opportunist, the fight against him is trivial, but then you have to waste XP on stealth and opportunist prerequisites at a point in the game where XP is rather tight. I guess you could also use !quickness to chase him down but I usually like to save those for more serious threats.

Scariest part of this run so far was Nan. I've simply forgotten how strong he was. He's so much tougher than Gilim. I got greedy and didn't use any buffs, and I might have gotten away with it if I had remembered to take off my armor. No amount of protection is enough to keep you safe from him anyways. Might as well fight naked. So I ended up drinking like 3 !orcish liquors. I originally had like 7. Another 2 blew up from sapphire serpent breathes, so I'm down to 2 now. Still no source of rFear so I should probably keep some around.

Oh I staff of earthquaked Uldor this run. 2 charges did the job. If I had a choice, I would never meet him. Umuiyan and him are both really obnoxious to fight.
