RIP Kallus the Dwarf Cursed

Fairly new to the game. I've been trying to run Cursed lately, and even though they start off rather gimped (especially non-Cormac), they're intensely fun once you get them rolling past about L15.
This was my most promising character yet: http://te4.org/characters/132431/tome/6 ... 64c8a8961f
I originally planned on going Mindstar, but eventually just started throwing points into Strength and gave it up. I find that once I hit about L12-13, pushing Will in order to get ready for Mindstars tends to gimp Cursed really, really badly. It seems to be extremely difficult to get the 600 gold for Mindstars together before you hit the 'suck threshold'.
Anyway, this guy was ridiculously fun. Check out the randart lantern he found - it was absolutely amazing. Some stats, resists, a +6 light radius, and best of all it made him undead and gave me L1 Retch, which was a huge help in a variety of circumstances. I also spent some time farming Zigur patrols for that nice voratun axe.
Sadly I died against an elite luminous horror and several of his cronies. They blasted me for too much damage for me to be able to do anything about it.
I'm going to try rolling another Dwarf Cursed and see how far I get. Tips, tricks, comments? My main problem right now is getting enough resists up and running to protect me from bombing.
