As I have been nagging about the last 40 posts or so, I am playing a fighter/mage/thief going solo.
In this game I have found out that it is a lot easier and more effective to kill monsters with just one character. I killed everyone in the twisted rune fairly early in the game, and after that I killed Kangaxx and all of the Cowled wizards, and then I killed the Koshi-group (Koshi has the Celestial fury).
Now I don't have to worry about my companions getting killed all the time, or have to wait for the other persons in the group that isn't hasted. I don't have to reload much either, since if things are getting too hot, I just run away, or take an invisibility potion/spell, or a "protection from undead"-scroll. If I meet some really tough monsters, I just use some level 7-9 scrolls to help me.
One bad thing though is that you cannot be dominated, because that means death, so I have to be really careful with some monsters. I think it will be pretty tough when I meet my first mindflayer.
Of course I have to cheat a little (legal cheats), meaning I use the wand of cloudkill and the wand of monster summoning pretty often, otherwise I would have to rest a lot. I can survive for months without any healing potions or spells because of these wands. There are also a lot of scrolls out there, and I use them all the time.
What I mean by this, is that if you are interested in playing the game over again, but don't have that much time, I would suggest that you play a fighter/mage/thief solo. Chapter 3 took about 2 hours (real time) for me.
