ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

Inspired by the "what is the easiest" thread I'd like to ask what you think is the hardest class to win the game with?

Noob impressions:

Personally, I just tried a halfling doomed and gotta say that was pretty harsh. Although I did got screwed pretty hard in the Ruined Dungeon with a 1,1 K HP vampire lord unique who refused to stay in his room and forced an emergency teleport (those don't end up well in mostly uncleared RD), Doomed just felt really bad even when not taking that into account.

Non-cornac cursed is extremely bad in the very early game but rampage evens the score nicely and a roquelike 41 cursed dwarf (who is still alive BTW) is my best character yet.

Shadowblades...I rock until something stun resistant in Dreadfell pops up. Then my character dies.

And by "difficult" I mean a roquelike character that has a really good chance of dying before Dreadfell.

I'm playing versions 1.1.2 and 1.1.5

Well by looking at this Ghoul Solipsist because no one has yet to win with that! Or at least win with it connected to the internet! So I would say that is a pretty hard class!

Try Yeek archer. I thought skeleton archer starting dungeon was hard but yeek dungeons set the bar even higher. I tried it like a dozen times on nightmare and i had SERIOUS problems before level 20 and never reached level 30 ;D I told myself it will be easier after unlocking fungus tree but first you have to make it to fungus ...
