I was tempted to go for the +/-, but that's not too interesting with a Dwarf. What really killed it was the Bear Mace option... as you said, it's a solution to blinking (and helps with animated armours too).
I was kind of surprised with everyone taking the corrosion options over Quest items. Corrosion isn't so great here. I suppose you could use it for knocking large animated armours and such into the Cursed Shade. Other than that... animated armours don't care, the cursing monsters you don't want to get into prolonged fights with, and the bosses can never be beside each other. Quest items (and cheap today) normally gets you something really good.
The blue bead was taken for conversion fodder, because I didn't really want the other options The JJ prep was also largely ignored... I didn't really feel that Dracul was necessary with CA to make the Cursed Shade rather trivial (which is why I really didn't care about corrosion items). And with everything so nicely lined up to take out the Cursed Shade (mace even helped take off his over heal early as a way to spend red before a level up), I knew that I'd have all my resources for the Dragon. Plus CA leveled me to the point where it made more sense to buy Reflex for the Dragon than Whupaz.
And thanks for the congratulations... I'm going on vacation in early July and travelling will certainly break my streak then, but until then, one day at a time, moving my marker up.
