Char: Wiz Hum Mal Neu
Turns: 14595 (~8000 better than my best)
Gametime: 4 hours, 3 minutes, 9 seconds (two hours better than my best)
Logged: 5 hours, 35 minutes into the tournament (it was my fourth game)
I had decided I was going to play wizards for a myriad reasons. The
early magic resistance was the dealbreaker. Though I love monks to
death, I need MR before I descend below Minetown and Sokoban. Monks are
up next. :)
There was an altar on one of the first few levels of the dungeon, I got
Magicbane fairly early. I normally go to Minetown first, but this time
I did Sokoban first. I can't remember why, perhaps it was because
Delphi was so high (dlvl 5 or 6). Grabbed a bag of holding (thank
goodness!). Went to Minetown; Izchak's had a blessed magic lamp. I
naturally wished for a +2 silver dragon scale mail. Then when I was
going down for the luckstone I ran into Nilisco's bones. Among other
things, he had two magic lamps. They were blessed and I got speed boots
and the Eyes of the Overworld (primarily for the astral vision, because
that kicks ass, and enlightenment, to identify my rings and amulets).
He also had +0 gauntlets of dexterity, lev boots, and a flute.
I decided there and then that I needed to go to the Castle as soon as
possible. That mekkis was already in the Castle while I was still
dillydalling on dlvl 10 or so really motivated me to descend. So I
ended up in the Castle at turn 8815. I used my famous drawbridge
techniques to clear it out pretty safely. I had no Elbereth so I used a
wand of cold to keep the eels at bay (though it was unnecessary: I had
a greased cloak and Magicbane for Elbereth). Made it to the wand, twas
(0:3). Grabbed 2 blessed scrolls of charging, helm of brilliance, a
magic marker, and a spellbook of identify.
Next step was to get the quest artifact. I was only level 12, ended up
eating a wraith corpse (straight out of the quest) then quaffing gain
level. The quest went by pretty uneventfully. After I did the quest I
wished for a spellbook of magic mapping for Gehennom. The wand became
(1:1).
I then did a small sacfest (four /oCM) to get crowned (I was lacking
some resistances) but to no avail. Oh well, I did max my luck out here.
I used another wish somewhere between here and the Sanctum. I think it
was for a second magic marker, but I can't say for sure.
Gehennom was fairly light. From the Valley I levelported to the VS,
mapped up to Vlad's, entered Rodney's tower, levelported *onto the book
of the dead* (using rast's port-in-tower trick), dispatched Rodney, and
dove into the Sanctum with three levelports: one to the VS, one into
the Sanctum (ended up close to the stairs up), and a second one into
the Sanctum by the temple.
In the temple I ended up wresting my wand of wishing (which took ages!)
for two cursed potions of gain level. One to escape the Sanctum, the
other to use in alchemy. I did my alchemy (going from ~98 HP to ~120,
not so great!) with the Amulet :)
The run up was annoying.. got hit with a dozen or so mysterious forces.
I had no intrinsic teleportitis, but I did have a ring of telecontrol.
I used most of my scrolls for levelporting, so I did a lot of walking
in Gehennom. I realized far too late that I could zap /oTele at myself
(perhaps for the better.. read on!)
I realized when I was on Earth that I had no reliable way of confusing
myself. I had blanked by ?oConfMon, and I obviously hadn't forgotten
any spells. My best bet would have been to curse a second unicorn horn,
but I only brought my main one. So I ended up cursing my ?oGD and
winging it. I used conflict on all five Planes (except Earth, I think).
Air was difficult. With such a low HP, air elementals would have
creamed me. Conflict helped but not as much as I would've liked. I used
a _lot_ of death and tele charges here. Someone threw a !oConf at me,
so I was able to use my one blessed scroll on Fire. I lucked out on
Water and practically walked into the portal.
Astral with 120 HP was quite unpleasant. Luckily I still had a fair
amount of death and tele charges. Annoyingly it was a three-altar run;
I was planning on wishing for a helm of opposite alignment but I had
already used my last wish. I've always used jumping on Astral (try it,
it works phenomenally), so having to walk through doors was pretty
frustrating.
