you can still go with tarts as well. even a lowly D1 with 2 boosters(staff/helmet/RoW/RoS/artifacts) gives you mound fiends. all 4 of these boosters on a mount fiend=D7=tarts, or use the D4 Demiliches instead with just 3 boosters. that's if you just can't live without tarts that is, either for SCing or for super diversification. oh yeah and Wish is also accessible, though it requires the Dimensional Rod and Forbidden Light artifacts. a "lowly" S3 Starlet/Master of Names with cap+coin+RoS+Robe+Rod+Light=S9, no empowerments or anything. than wish for that S5 R'lyeh hero or whatever else fancies your boat, or just wait for a tart with more astral for easier wish access.
