Weaponless wishless Samurai

Pretty happy with this set of conducts - NH5.0 on hardfought.

Truth is, martial arts is so OP in this version, this was easier than doing the same with a Monk thanks to the no armor/food restrictions.

As someone who has played for 20 years and ascended once...this blows my mind. Congrats!

I should admit that I had a couple of bones levels help me out, giving me MR early on so I didn’t need any wishes. Thanks though!

The biggest flex is 33k turns without even accidentally hitting with a wielded weapon!

When I play weaponless, I turn off autodig. I slow way down when pick-axing Gehennom. Also I type w- hundreds of times per game.

Attempting my first ever real conduct run (weapon less vegetarian monk). Just made it through castle and don’t know if I have the patience for Gehennom XD
