Barahir isn't exciting, but the restore life levels and hold life of Evenstar
have been very helpful for me. I swapped Barahir in in place of a RoInt because
my Int was already more than maxed.

I carry this as a swap and put it on when I run into disenchanters. At my
current depth, though, disenchantment is less of an issue than life draining.

My Int and Con are already maxed, so the RoInt, Carlammas and the Magi don't do
anything for me. Likewise, I don't really need more speed. The ring of damage
might be a good choice.

Good idea.

Not at the moment. I'm playing effectively as a semi-melee character with very
nice support spells. I rarely run out of mana during a fight, so better melee
ability is a big plus.
