I've observed that Automaton adventurers seem to survive into the high scores a little better than other Steamband classes and races, so I am giving one a shot. It's turning out well so far- having reached level 23, he is my longest lived Steamband character ever. I have chosen to specialize in melee swordsmanship, which so far has left him fairly vulnerable to enemies immune to slashing damage, etc. He survived the quest to take down 14 Stone Trolls by using a club and taking advantage of his much greater speed. So far the closest calls have been a pit of Gator and Snake men, who wore him down faster than he had repairs available for, and a Jianshi. Their description says they can kill with a touch- for some reason, I assumed this would not apply to automatons. One touch took me down from 65 WP to 8, and zero HP. (I'm still working out the relationship between HP and WP. Does zero HP mean that all damage goes directly to wounds, instead of only sometimes?) Fortunately a quick teleport allowed time to recuperate, and the pair of Jianshi went down satisfyingly fast before my shotgun.

I am concerned that Kolyarut's specialization in combative skills, which has left other skills, like using devices, pretty weak, will make him very vulnerable. Since I've never had a character live this long, I am not sure what kind of threats lie around the corner.

I really love my shotgun.

Still alive at level 30. Trying not to get overconfident, since as long as Kolyarut can keep his head clear, he seems to be unstoppable. I've continued to focus on epic sword skills- a few new melee related skills have unlocked, so I am trying to fill them as well. I'm hanging on to Van Helsing's Hammer as a backup, in case of a slash resistant heavy monster, but I can't help but wonder if he's so overspecialized that his reduced slash damage might be better than his unspecialized hammer damage vs a slash resistant foe.
Did make one mistake- I traded out a 'resist bewilderment' ring for a high powered protection ring. Bad idea- turns out the reist bewilderment ring was saving him from all sorts of trouble that I'd not realized. So I'm going to switch back ASAP- already almost died once while confused. I do at least have free action. Now all I want is a better artifact sword- not sure what kinds I might find.

Well, I didn't find confusion resistance in time, and Kolyatrut got mowed down when a Wild Card confused him while in a dangerous vault.
Still, this was by far the most successful character I've ever had for any variant anywhere, so it's hard to feel too bad about it. It's just ironic- he'd just finished mowing down a room of massive Martian walkers, with missiles that were bringing the ceiling down- and then was slain by oversized playing cards. Oh well. I think I will give Vanilla a shot with fresh eyes, next.
