    Challenge: Try to reach Lord Dredmor at the lowest character level you can manage while setting off as many Brax's as possible along the way.

    I've found you usually need at least Level 3 Burglary for Ninja Vanish. With just that one skill, teleporting and a lot of luck I have managed to get to dungeon level 5, helped by my character leveling up along the way and getting Move in Mysterious Way.

    My usual build is:
    <ul>
    <li>Burglary</li>
    <li>Mathemagic</li>
    <li>Psionics</li>
    <li>Artful Dodger</li>
    <li>Fungal Arts</li>
    <li>Thrown Weapons</li>
    <li>Tinkerer</li>
    </ul>

    Point system that I'm making up as I type this:
    <ul>
    <li>+4 points per dungeon level</li>
    <li>+4 points per Brax you attack/setoff while running (Thrown Weapons is useful here)</li>
    <li>+1 point per Statue of Dredmor you break</li>
    <li>+1 point per Anvil of Krong you use</li>
    </ul>

    You can play normally until you think you're ready and then you must trigger a Brax (either by shoplifting or attacking him) before hot footing it out of there.

    Been there, done that. I find it the easiest way to play now, actually.

    @Rikkard

    Did you set off Brax at all?

    Dodging Dread Collectors while desperately trying to find a staircase is half the fun.
