My first conduct assencion (3rd assencion overall), though arguably one
of the easiest (if not the easiest) conduct assencion, a vegan monk
(ok, vegetarian would be marginally easier, but not much difference),
once I found the ring of slow digestion, keeping the conduct was easy!
Nothing too unusual happened, found a magic lamp in the mines, used it
as a light source, found mojo early (just after I had gotten my unarmed
combat skill to grand master!), then got frost brand via sacrificing in
a dungeon alter (very luck two find 2 very good weapons), played mainly
combat wombat, with the odd sleep or magic missile spell, had no magic
resistance or reflection, and just before the quest had two very close
calls within 2 Dlvs.
First was a nymph attack, normally pretty harmless, but she stole my
wand of death, and then a couple of turns later "You hear a zap. A
death ray narrowly misses you". I very hastaly cast sleep on her then
beat her to a pulp, but then the next level had a similar insance with
a black dragon disintigration ray, so that was enough to make me wish
for SDSM (yes, with a monk, by that stage I had found gauntlet of
strength, and had my main weapon at +3, so I found I was still hitting
75% of the time) - dislike amulet of reflection, as I much rather
amulet of life saving, wanted to keep my robe for spells, and knew I
would get magic resistance from the eyes of the overworld.
With my new armour I tackled the quest, and although magic resistance
would have made it a lot easier for the quest nemisis, it was still
straight forward, though I went through 2 potions of full healing (when
he hits he hits hard!).
After that everything was straight forward, pretty much had whole
assencion kit before kit, used the 3 wands there for scrolls of
genocide (never found any in the game), amulet of life saving, and...
after running out of other ideas, master key of theivery for half
physical damage (only decent chaotic artifact I could wish for!). I
later charged and used other 3 wishes on dilithium crystals to boost my
score a little (and of course had one wish left).
The rest was straight forward, went through a plethora of pets, had two
archons at one stage, but both got eaten by purple worms! Before the
assencion run I jumped on a poly trap and ate a few rings, including
poly and poly control, so after that I played half the game as a vamp
lord (the other half as human), hence why my stats arent maxed out (as
they were halfway into the game).
Wizard of Yendor was a piece of cake, wand of death helped, the plane
with the alters was a little harder, but my magic harp was very usefull
in making all the insects a barrier between me and the rest, and thats
it!
Not sure how or why, but I managed to get my god very angry, so I lost
12 points of protection that I paid through the roof to get, but still
ended with an ok AC.
