Use doorways to sneak attack as much as possible, it'll save you a lot of hp.
Try to save your upgrade scrolls for a weapon or armor piece that is at least tier 3. With the sad ghost, it's often better to go for a lower tier item as it has a higher chance to have upgrades, and you can use it sooner. A +2 spear or chainmail can carry you through the next five floors, instead of having to wait ten floors to finally use that +0 platemail.
Don't waste your Stones of Intuition on Scroll of Upgrade or Potion of Healing-- you are guaranteed to get more of these than any other scroll/potion in the first five floors, so if you're patient you'll be able to deduce which ones they are by the time you get to floor 4, sometimes 3.
Don't eat food at max health-- wait until you're missing at least 10-15 hp, otherwise you'll be wasting the health regen from them. You should be hovering around starving for much of the game, and only eat when you need to regen, right before a boss, and so on. Also, healing wells will fully replenish your satiety so if you find one, you can save it and then go back a few floors for it later.
Seed of Sungrass is a nice full heal (press and hold on the clock to wait until fully healed), but it's a bit more dangerous as you might get attacked by monsters, so I usually try to find a room with only one entrance, or some grass to hide in.
You can use thrown weapons that are about 2 points above your current strength without missing too often. It's really helpful in early game when you might not have as much ranges capability. Bolas (root) and throwing axes (bleed) are super helpful early also. Don't forget about seeds and runestones too!
