I finally won with a Grey Elven Wizard. Avatar of Balance!

[Kyreles]

I had never won with a Grey Elven Wizard, and it seems like everyone else in the world had. Here's my YAVP for my Grey Elven Wizard. I'll just post my notes on this game. I got a lot of forges/hives/rivers/herbs. I might have had the "long lost brother" thing.

Started with teleport book and !PoCC. Had 7 To and 8 Str (19 hp). First kill in Holeinthewall - mugger. Herbs on UD 4. Boosted stats and got teleport control from a blink dog. Chaotic alter on D1. D2 Forge. General goods shop on D5 and forge. Surge of power - serpent's bite on D 6 or so. Hive D7. I found 2 vaults before dwarftown. Got to Dwarftown, Claw Bug was quest. Pacified big room for more herbs. Got stats as high as herbs could get them. Mystic only gave me !PoGA and 2 !ofTraining. Shit. Another vault on D12 (with a Chaotic Altar). Spiders. Acid Bolt was my only offenseve spell until now. Got lightning bolt. Undead vault on D14, Masterwork Eternium Spear. D15 was forest, and Kelly on D16. No Amulet and I'm lvl 16, went topside for Pyramid, Griffyard, Ring of HK and to Pool Sip. Surge of power - Executor on my way to the ring. Only 5 pools in Darkforge, two wishes, lost teleport control and got perma invis. Found Hammer of the Gods in weapon room. Got Sword of Nannok and Gauntlets. Graveyard on D17. Water Temple D19. Vault/Hive D20. Golems. D23 Banshee. D24 Vault, more golems. D27 Vault/hive, dark elves. First corruption, thorns. Hit the fire wall. Went topside for fire orb. Blinded/sickened/posioned/acid ball'd ACW to death. Grabed the potion from Gremlin Cave to give ratling and got Gabb'bay's first quest so I could convert back to neutral. Falling coins on D25, hive and forge. Gave RoHK to Guarding then to Ratling. Passed casino, shortcut to surface. D32 Pool, river. Used ring of doom to look for boar skull. converted to N=. Got tons (literally) of gold from casino and Ironfist. Brannalbin's Cloak of Defense is crowning gift (shit). D33 Blue dragon vault. D34 Battle Bunnies. D35 forge. D36 Cat Lord, lawful altar. 2 dead cats. Killed and read a ton of spellbooks. D37 cavernous lvl. D38 river. D39, forge, tension room Ancient Minotour. D40 Air Temple, Acid Ball everything. D41 Pool. D43 Red Dragon vault. D44 Earth temple. D45 Vault, black dragons. D46 Hive, River, Death Ooze tension room - got skullcrusher and thin and nimble. UL2 Book shop, pool. UL6 Falling coins and neutral altar. Mana Temple, Acid Ball. Blue Dragon cave, Ice Ball. Got Needle and a wand of wishing, 1 charge. Killed Sharad-Waador (3,841,564 xp), lvl 48. Went to surface. Very Dusty Dungeon Level chaotic altar. Got filk quest. Only 1 killed mugger so far. Filk on ID 1 (my first and only trip here, I think). One-shot him. Neutral Altar on Scintillating Cave lvl 8. Can you sacrafice the Emperor Moloch? Would he smash the altar? Would it prevent me from getting the scroll (like with Keethrax and the Black Torc)? Not gonna try it... Acid ball, dead, lvl 50 now. Summoned the Trident of the Red Rooster. I missed the 60 day mark so I'm going to the stone circle now, almost day 90. Acid Ball. Stored Corpse in shop. Quickling tree time! Enter with 147, leave with 177 speed. Went down the rift. Lost a wand of paralyzation. Oh well. Grabbed all books in library, weird tome. Traded it for 5 SoCR. Cleared bug temple. Read all books here. Got mana battery while reading wish, drained all wands (except my wishing), recharged with class power and drained again. Did unicorn quest. Grabbed my corrupting artificts and dove down. Forgot my potion of uselessness. Fully cleared D50 with Acid Ball while waiting for corruption(forgot to eat Multi-headed chaos dragon corpse). Wished for speed (twice) and drank potions. Entered gate. Melee'd him to death. Easy peasy.

                              Her further life:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

After slaying Andor Drakon and dispersing his malevolent energies the scales
of Balance appear before you. All the forces of Balance seem to be united
behind them. You are lifted to the status of an Avatar of Balance and the
tales of your deeds are spread all over Ancardia.

Your deeds are recounted at camp fires and interpreted by philosophers and
priests alike. The common man looks up to you and you slowly start to be
revered as a minor power of Balance. After a few millennia have passed you
are raised to the position of a demi-god to guard Ancardia from the forces
of Chaos and Order forever.

Under your guidance Ancardia becomes a balanced and happy world, enjoying
its own freedom to be never again threatened by the unbalancing powers of
the universe.

You sure did a better job of avoiding jackals than I usually manage to.

Also, I find it mildly odd that you never needed Improved Fireball. Interesting.

[Silfir]

I don't find that odd at all, actually. I don't think I've ever needed Improved Fireball. I have trouble remembering when I've actually cast it. I must have, to find out how it works, but it must have been ages.

I find it useful to kill liches.

For liches I use Burning Hands in Coward tactics, and intrinsic +Luck +Fate plus the ankh (stat draining is much less frequent then), and when Wi crosses the 32 barrier, Acid Ball, retreat, Acid Ball, and so on.

If you don't want to put dirt on your hands, very experienced greater earth elemental pets (blessed SoFS on DH2) can also two-hit (at most) any kind of lich, even emperor ones. Just try to keep your friend within LOS at all times if you're not a bard, lest it backstab you.

Huh, I guess I'm overcompensating in the transition from melee characters to Wizards. When I see a swarm of nasties in the distance, I don't like to let them get close, and I've had plenty of situations where bolt spells were useless due to odd angles or the desire to not over-penetrate.
