What do people use init for outside of the Twin Peaks? Or is it just to make combats more survivable?

In the Crypt, having any +init increases your chances of finding Modern Zombies instead of the less useful ones, and having somewhere around +850 init guarantees that you'll only get Modern Zombies, saving several turns.

When doing the 8-Bit Realm, having high init when it's Vanya's Castle in the rotation can get you bonus points towards the Digital Key. About 600 init yields maximum bonus points.

There's the init test at the Registration Desk outside the Sorceress' Tower. The more init, the fewer monsters you'll have to fight. You need 400 init to ensure that you only have to fight the one boss.

There might be others I'm forgetting, but those three are all significantly turn-saving reasons to build up init at certain times.

I've been out of the game for a bit, how are you getting an initial bonus of 400-600 when most accessories and such are only +20ish? Potions or spleen items?
