starting skills weren't all that great,but having healing and herbalism i went straight to the small cave, and at UD2 herbs with L altar in UD4 got me the 3 pre crowns the dv is at agressive mode, and the weapon in hand is the one i used for most of the game, resorting to phase dagger when needed.
didn't talk to mystyc as i was lawful, and didnt get any wishes until the wery endso really thought corruption would be a problem, but when identifying my gear just before last dive i had on me 3 rings of djinn summoning :) wished for girdle of giant strenght and scrolls of chaos resisstance leaving last for when needed, seems i didn't need it ;)
at L50 walls were undiggable so i killed everything exept the big room in the middle using wand of destruction on both handles after clearing both tunnels and a note here, killed every "boss" in melee :D (not the carmic wyrt ofcourse)
mana temple was easy as i read a vermincontrol there, so they didn't multiply :D
Headed down to the end game at 41 couse i had already like 6 corruptions and the day was past 90 so figured i had all i needed and just went for it.

...Vermin control works against summoners? I don't buy it.

I routinely enter D:50 in the mid-thirties if I know I can kill the balors, because that'll get me to 50 anyway, if I didn't get there before thanks to a lucky vault.

In any case, many congratulations!

IronFist and Preserver in the early game? Bound to help things a bit :) Y'know, I find it odd that you used that sword all game and never blessed it. You know that blessed weapons (melee and missiles) cause an extra 50% damage against demons and undead?

Good game anyway - congratulations on your first victory. Bards are a really nice class once you get decent stats and equipment for them (my first win was with a bard too). Also, I quite like how you've changed the "uncursed" string to just "-", so it looks like there's no uncursed string at all. Might have to try that some time...

[riktikticheck]

oh right the blessing of the weapons... i knew about it, but i guess it slipped my mind, for the start of the game i actually used a mithril axe of devastation, didn't find that until later in the game, now that you mention t i think my phasedagger was uncursed too, and i had like 23 holywaters in the end (the dragon valuts dropped loads of water) and i didn't use spells much, getting concentration late and not having deacent spellbooks left my mana low andthe L18 spells included deathray, petrification and magic lock :D
and yeah the pre crownings helped alot, actually it went like this: i go straight for small cave, manage to survive there, herbs on ud2 altar on ud4, when i leave ud i was 14 with 3 precrownings :D

oh and about vermin control, atleast i didn't see a single chaos servant or a mass of primal chaos (what ever) in there, so i guess they didn't summon any...
