My first Insane (Roguelike) win, also my first bikini win!

Character Summary
Granted that it's a Shalore Adventurer, I still think it's a decent accomplishment. I've tried many Insane/RL runs with other builds, mostly melee, but my best run before this was level 29. The combination of long range and corner-sniping in this build really made things a lot easier. I think the playstyle of this build also forced me to scout constantly instead of autoexploring, so that probably helped as well. The fact that it was a bikini run likely had a similar effect; I knew I was very vulnerable, so I played more carefully. My one death was from an invisible bone giant boss in Ruined Halfling Complex, but fortunately I had Blood of Life.
I wrote a build guide for those interested in the gritty details.
