Remember back in the 50s when they'd record like Elvis singing YOU AIN'T NOTHIN BUT A HOUND DOG and then they'd turn the record over and reverse it and it was all NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP and people were all like, "That is actually the voice of Satan coming from that song."
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I died on Dungeon level 5. Stupid centaurs with their stupid fire arrows...

Yeah, undead are particularly deadly for VMs, since they don't have the benefit of Throw Icicle. It's better to branch into melee early on so you can smash them open. Or just run.
I first attempted to run by using a scroll of teleportation.
After doing some gallivanting on the other side of the floor, the phantom found me again. And an Orc with a +4 +1 axe. Really, my best option was probably to just dash down to DL4 and deal with the monsters there...
Well from reading the changelog, it sounds like they removed the hidden "spellcasting actually takes an extra 30% for each level" and just adjusted the aptitudes so its roughly exactly the same amount of exp anyway
Anyway, this run has been going super-well so far! Green Draconian Conjurer of Vehumet with a very nice spell list (Magic Dart, Poison Cloud, Delayed Fireball, Fire Bolt, Bolt of Venom, Orb of Destruction, Shroud of Golubria) and some kickin' items including a staff of power. Main problem right now is that I'm suffering from the stat rot mutation, need to find a way to cure that. Other issue is that Vehumet keeps offering me spells more quickly than I can acquire the spell levels to learn them, had to pass on both Ignite Poison and Spellforged Servitor.
Farthest I've gotten was Minotaur Berserker. Ended up dying of poison in the plant mines, which i exacerbated by drinking poison on top of existing poison.

EDIT: Just ran into a manticore. On D:3. Not a manticore skeleton, a goddamn manticore.
I will humbly posit that Octopodes have the best lichform.
OOD's a bitch.Assassin poems, Poems that shoot

and take their weapons leaving them dead
On the one hand, Octopodes now have more aptitudes besides Evocation, including a remarkable Stealth aptitude
On the other hand, Spellcasting is now penalized, which is silly because Octopodes.

2 of the 3 runes you need to clear the game, died in The Spider Pit.
The Spider Pit is going to have a scary-ass amount of ghosts if I can ever actually survive in there long enough to see them.
