[Delta Foxtrot]

I've certainly bumped into a lot of levels where fighting in a 1-tile corridor isn't an option lot of the time. Branches mostly but even good 'ol dungeon floors occasionally get genned with fairly wide corridors. Reaching, cleaving or stabbing would seem the best melee counters to those environments.

Well, congrats on your future win.

[TripJack]

don't jinx it

[Leafsnail]

Just notched up a 3-rune win with a MiDK.  Apparently doing so was enough to give me the Death Knight highscore.

At 5 hours it's my quickest win in terms of realtime (although not by turns).

Woah, you're a machine. Going to do that streak now?

I'd better pick up the pace, this is my third day on this very TeGl and I still have no runes. Snake4 is clear but Norris & Louise spooked me away from Shoals4. Will probably clear Vaults4, Orc and then pick a rune to go for. Also just found Haste, so yay. Hubris here I come!

[Leafsnail]

I'll try, but I have an uncanny knack for splatting even the strongest character immediately after a win.

[vogonpoet]

Leafsnail, you are awesome. However, maybe running away from D2 Sigmund should be default approach to streaking?

My only decent dude to date got obliterated by Lamia - I totally underestimated her damage potential.

[Leafsnail]

Yeah I just got killed by blink frogs in lair.  Haven't had problems with those for ages.

Finally broke my streak of dying to random critters in Lair, mainly thanks to pretty good mutation combination.
And the game is throwing scrolls of acquirement at me. Any suggestions what to spend third one at ?

You could get your wands identified and then go for Heal Wounds.

Was killing yaktaurs, ogre packs and vault guards left and right. Got a bit careless with a single dragon. It got me down to 7hp. Tried a scroll of fear but it resisted and promptly mauled me to death.
That could have been a great run.

Hmm, wondering if I should learn Ozocubu's Refrigeration (given by Vehumet.) I have potentially rC+++ and it could be good for Snake (where Poisonous Cloud won't be much help) but I'm not sure I feel like doing Snake without potions. Was hoping he would give me Freezing Cloud or Bolt of Cold, but I think I must be getting to the end of my gifts soon.

Do you have an amnesia scroll? I mean, I always treat mine like gold dust, then never use half of them. You could just go now with Ozo's, then forget it when Vehumet graces you with freezing cloud. He's pretty likely to give one of the level 6 spells before the big final three, but Ozo's will be cool in the meantime.

[Moron]

I have found one amnesia scroll so far, which I used to forget Static Discharge. Vehumet has already given me Poisonous Cloud and Poison Arrow, so I'm thinking that Ozo's might be the last level 6 spell. I was also hoping to get OOD at some point.
