Hi,
See below character dump. I'm now at dlvl 30, and starting to see things
like Grey Wights which can cause critical wounds (150) and mind flayers
that cause brain smashing (180) both of which would be insta-kills if I
fail the saving throw (which will happen inevitably at some point).
Does this mean I'm too deep and should ascend a bit until I have more
HP? So far I've found two !Dex but no !Con and no Con-boosting items...

Detect and Evade. Remember that word of recall is an evasion method.
I don't remember the mage spell list for 3.5. I recommend you collect
object detection and invisibility detection when on sale in town if they
would be helpful.
If you die, next game emphasize CON rather than DEX for your initial
stats.

to
deeper. 1500 is the depth where stat potions start to appear and because
monster drops are (monster level + dungeon level) /2 you see much more
of those a little bit deeper. Items that boost CON are valuable.
Just remember to run away a lot. If you play with connected stairs then
you can do a dive and just stay close to stairs to back up if there is
something nearby that can kill you.
