I wasn't sleepy so I went back on,and everything worked fine. Figures.

At 4:03 am, there was already a 72 sorceress. At this rate, it will take less than a full 24-hour day to get somebody at 99.

A poison dagger mancer... I suppose if you had lots of block, a freezing aura merc, and teleport, you could zip around and stab everybody. But that requires lots of equipment and set-up.

Edit: What about using Life-Tap in place of a Lower Resist? With enough IAS, you'd refill your life too much to be killed.
