Just do not wait

I finished with my melee char (wizard slayer) in 39 days - not the quickest, but definitely not slowest. and I did not wait till I heal - just there was no point

, the closest I came to it was hunting shadows in Umar Hills with the sword of Chaos, but I personally considered it fun. I did use some tactics I considered "cheese" though - shield of Balduran, and Vhailor's helm to cast simulacrum come to mind.
