It's Cat Lord, not king. And he is on D:34 or D:35 I think. |

So you probably still have a long long time to kill many many cats before you meet him. If you're feeling happy, don't worry, it'll go away.

*shudder* He's really bad if you kill a lot of cats. He scratched my troll to death once... *sniff* First and last time I have gotten so far. It was three years ago, I think. "Faugh!" snorted Tahngarth. "Why would it make a meal out of something like you?" Squee looked relieved. "No," he continued, "you'd make a much better toothpick." |

And in the new versions he might resist death ray, at least some uniques have got that resistance in the new versions. If you're feeling happy, don't worry, it'll go away.

Why not? You get a few free levels for killing cat lord when he's really strong after those hundreds of cats you've killed. It's a choice. One thing less to worry about. If you're feeling happy, don't worry, it'll go away.

Yeah, sometimes even about 10 levels :). Exp or a kick-ass ring. The choice is yours. You can also be killed by the furry bastard if you're not careful ;). |

What does the ring from the Cat Lord do? And its name? --<>||<>-- |

J. Registered user You'll never get rid of me Last page view: 5667 days, 6 hours, 29 minutes and 7 seconds ago. |
Offhand I'd say its [0,+5] (Dx+16) (Sp+16) very good at scoring critical hits and something else. I've never got it as I've never got that far in the game. I'm now playing a troll barbarian and I'm hoping to encounter many many cat vaults and tension rooms and anything (like my last druid did). If you're feeling happy, don't worry, it'll go away.

He changes into the ring :P so it's not possible. A pessimist sees a dark tunnel. An optimist sees a light at the end of that tunnel. A realist sees a train. And the train driver sees three idiots on the tracks. |

What dungeon does the cat lord appear in? The DC where the dwarves are?? --<>||<>-- |

eL Registered user Long lost brother Last page view: 7187 days, 18 hours, 47 minutes and 45 seconds ago. |
i don't get it, Maelstrom. You mean that if i killed a cat, then there is no chance to get da ring?? It's very hard to be humble, when you are great. |

Ryan Klein Registered user Because I said so is why! Last page view: 1658 days, 1 hour, 23 minutes and 50 seconds ago. |
that's right. you can't kill a cat after you get it either. It's a bugger |

Maelstrom Registered user The Knight of the Black Rose Last page view: 3120 days, 7 hours, 3 minutes and 59 seconds ago. |
It's a really annoying thing- if you kill a cat, the cat Lord is hostile, so he won;t change into the ring. If you have the ring and kill a cat - it explodes (doing about 200-400 fire damage IIRC, maybe even more) A pessimist sees a dark tunnel. An optimist sees a light at the end of that tunnel. A realist sees a train. And the train driver sees three idiots on the tracks. |

Once you have the ring however,there is a work-around: If you kill a cat and you aren't wearing the ring(i.e. it's in your backpack),then it doesn't explode.Just remember to take it off before slaughtering a cat...'laughs insanely' Note: That was how it was in ADOM V.1 anyway.It might have been changed in a later version however.Haven't had the chance to experiment.

What is the cats quest anyway? what do you have to do to get the ring? |

J. Registered user You'll never get rid of me Last page view: 5667 days, 6 hours, 29 minutes and 7 seconds ago. |
You mustn't kill any cats. Wild cats, cave tigers and cave lions count as cats(all the monsters that look like f). Also when you've got the ring it explodes if you kill a cat. If you're feeling happy, don't worry, it'll go away.

Damn... I managed to get the ring with my dark elven elementalist (once again) and I was very happy. :) Then I met a cat and of course my fingers get evil and I send the cat to the deepest abyss and the ring decided to explode... I was so angsty after that... ;_; Nevertheless, the ring doesn't do 200-400 fire damage when it explodes as Maelstrom said. I think it does 50 or something like that. Or at least it did to me... Damn fingers!... "When watching anime, never worry about the consequences." |

You had fire resistance, right? It decreases the damage you take from the explosion. A pessimist sees a dark tunnel. An optimist sees a light at the end of that tunnel. A realist sees a train. And the train driver sees three idiots on the tracks. |

Tanthalas Pathfinder Registered user aka Tanthie Last page view: 7057 days, 9 hours, 37 minutes and 27 seconds ago. |
Oh, of course... Then characters should have fire resistance if they are wearing the ring or one evil finger can destroy him. Kinda dangerous that ring, isn't it. "When watching anime, never worry about the consequences." |
