Now that you've got the basics, experiment with simple variants. Dragon Shield is strictly better than DG in this case, because it stacks multiplicatively with the health and resistances from Glowing Guardian. Patches is like a DIY Thief Kit and has flat superiority to Black Market if you can stand the consequences (definitely convert the bear before going into the arena). HALPMEH is probably better than Fireball but is a bit harder to start with (I would start with Fireball and milk the burnt offering bonus, and switch to HALPMEH later). The classic CYDSTEP Rogue doesn't work as well here, because that strategy works by exploiting the Rogue's low health, and we are making a Rogue with more health than a Dwarven Priest.
From there, you should try Blovski's "Healthmonster" Dwarven Paladin strategy. It's also a monotheistic GG strategy that uses the Fireheart to leverage your health. It's a bit trickier to pull off, but it's cool to see a health build actually work in a VICIOUS setting.
