Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup/dear god how do people still remember this LP.

Despite my loathing for necrowhatsit, I feel compelled to defend it. It is, as long as it's not your sole source of damage (I hear melee/mage hybrid is good for this), pretty amazing, but you'll need necro resist, especially early on.

Also I haven't really kept up with the game in some time, so there's that. But I think some of the encrusts in the Wizardlands expansion also make the necromantic damage backfire off these spells pretty laughable. Alchemy, was it?

Which reminds me, alchemy solves your mana issues nicely for the most part (Blood Mage is still amazing, though) with infini-alcohol.
