Despite being rather drunk, I've survived my first hunt in the Ruined Temple known as Nelemar.

Here are some momentary glimpses into the supernatural hunting skill of Keleborrn:

-Keleborrn.

Tripled in dodge, but in MBP. Switching to robes doesn't actually add much DS (but I outright dodge a lot). Rank 3 armored evasion.

Offensive stance is really where I've trying to scrounge up DS, and there's even less of a change from different armor there... I don't think I can get to where I want to be in offensive without DB items or something along those lines, short of begging for spells or maintaining a scroll collection (yuck).

Nope. I think I'll probably go towards TWC to get more DS eventually, but I just don't have the points for it yet.

I'm up to 411 and 107, going towards 414. Still trying to get back to doubled in picking/disarming, had to fixskills that away to find the points to 3x dodge.

Close (ha) though. Another million or two until I'm done with my current goals....
