Talk:Speed ascension

Could someone with moderate experience with speed runs please post some "typical" times of some milestones, in order to set myself goals? I am thinking of something like

• found mines by ... turns
• buying/stealing/price-id in mine town by ... turns
• stack of holy water by ... turns
• crowned / intrinsics
• luckstone by ... turns
• found quest by ... turns
• completed castle by 12k turns
• start quest by ... turns
• complete quest by ... turns
• pre-gehennom prepratations ...
• wake up wizard by 20k turns
• ascend by ...

After some moderate experience, a few rough targets:

• Got digging tool by turn 500.
• Do price ID and have a plan for Medusa's titan.
• Then dig down straight, collecting/stealing as many scrolls and eggs/tripe as possible.
• Got wand of wishing by turn 1500.
• Reverse genocide unicorns for Luck. Wish for polymorph control, a wand of polymorph, and bazillions of magic markers to write charging with. Write spellbooks of detect monsters, magic mapping, sleep, remove curse, confuse monster.
• Dig / phase through Gehennom, mapping each level, recharging power as needed. Get the amulet of life saving, the Candelabrum, Rodney's book, and the vibrating square.
• Level teleport to the quest. Teleport control is gained by reverse genociding wraith or by turning into a tengu.
• Ascend by turn 6000.
