DF Adventure Mode Discussion / How do I have fun in Adventurer mode?

This is not a troll.
I've played a ton of Fortress mode and I want to play Adventurer mode. However, it seems like the main fun of this mode would be taking quests and killing monsters. However, whenever I do this the quest monsters kill me utterly. The Wiki advises me to do tedious things like swim in circles in a puddle or throw rocks for hours in order to become effective. But I know there's people playing this and having fun. What do I *do* in adventure mode?
So far the only fun I get out of it is exploring the world. One neat thing I discovered for example was after creation a bunch of fortresses in the world and not venturing outside of them, when I explored the world in Adventurer mode I found that all the Dark Fortresses had been taken over and cleaned out by elves. There actually wasn't a lot of room for adventure in that particular world.
