    First of all, no magic.

    Axes, dualing, zerk rage
    assassination, burglary, archaeology
    psionics.

    No synergy whatsoever intended. Axes to hit stuff with, zerk rage to do it harder. Burglary for lutefisk lockpicks, archaeology for busting useless items, assassination, because of the misc chances for a stun, so as to avoid counters and psionics, because nerve staple doesnt need magic power to stun bosses.

    Likely gona die to casters, as i have no way to fight djins and those mind flayer looking things

    This is on 1.0.6 version, where i distinctly remember being said that i would need to use at least 2 spells to finish the game, but im just gona staple the odd boss.

    Gone through the game just once on DM, but it was enough to get a feel of the mechanics.
    Thinking of maybe switching archaeology for vampirism, but the lack of spell power, wont make the vampirism that strong, besides i used it for the DM game.

    Soo, with that in consideration, place bets where will i drop dead. Im saying it will be a 3-rd floor swarm of djin fizz'es

    EDIT: might a well ask here - i read that difficulty increases the hit points of monsters per level. But is that per dungeon level, or per character level. Because if they scale with char level, that kinda negates the purpose of XP-boosting via archaeology.

    Uhh...no magic? And then you took Pisonics?

    That's D&D logic right there.

    Mind flayers abilities work in
    Dead-magic zone


    so technically...

    not spells

    But this isn't D&D :p And it relies on mana and magic power :p So it's magic in this universe. But that's no problem. You have chosen, all good. I am betting you'll make it to floor 8.
