....that's ONE order. I've found this one very effective:

1. Head to Terinyo. Get the puppy quest.
2. Dive quickly to the bottom of the PC so that Kenny
    is generated alive.
3. Head for SMC. With luck, you're not above lvl3.
4. If possible, get the blanket; if not, just dive.
5. Work through the UD to HMV. By now, anyone but
   a troll is ca. lvl10.
6. If chaotic, talk to Gabby.
7. Dump stuff in the shop. Kill a mimic. Buy any
    must haves.
8. Return to Terinyo. If need healing, get it. If going
    for an ultimate ending, get the Druid quest for a
   useless artifact to feed the Ratling. Complete this
   quest.
9. At this point I finish the puppy quest, *unless* I'm
   going for ultimate.
10. Head for the CoC.

This seems to produce characters that can get through
most anything.

Oh: and if I get a wish anywhere along the way (I
*always* sip pools), I use it for a "oLS, which is
worth three or four wishes when you use it to save
the old guy, even if you're *not* going for an ultra
ending...

As a side note, one of my personal twitches is trying,
once I'm in the CoC, to limit my times coming out of
it to one or two. Thus I'll usually combine the pyramid,
High Kings, Dwarf graveyard, and possibly other things
into a single above-ground expedition.
