Guys! I just found out something about the statues in the ancient complex.

When you kick them, they eventually break...

When you do, you will either be given a treasure or a message that suggests the bugs in the complex suffer in some way.

Here are notes on the treasures based on what I found inside the statues... This is great. @_@

-All of the treasures will be cursed.
-Any weapon, missile weapon, or armour will have BOTH a prefix and a suffix. Each will be GOOD.
-Any wand will have 25-100 charges.
-All scrolls will come in a nice bundle. I got six scrolls of chaos resistance.

I'm excited right now, so I'm probably leaving something out. *Shaky grin*

Oh, don't tell the newsgroup. Those guys are lame. *Big smile* Besides, I like having credit for finding something (even something this small), which I wouldn't get there!

Yeah! Those guys are faschist. Y'see the "credit" they give people on the Guidebook? It's in the intro section that nobody'll ever go to. Yet, what's on the bottom of each of the pages? Copyright, Andy Williams. What a jip.

Anyway, I wrote down all the stuff I got. Since I don't cheat, it'll be a while before I get another PC to go down that road again.

All of these are cursed.

12 crystals of health
6 scrolls of chaos resistance
24 scrolls of magic mapping
8 potions of ultra healing
wand of fireballs (100 charges)
wand of door creation (100 charges)
wand of teleportation (25 charges)
12 winged quarrels of slaying (-1, 2d6)
holy heavy club of devastation (+2, 5d10+8) [-1, +0]
holy two-handed sword of devastation (+3, 7d5+9) [-1, +0]
barbed trident of hunting (+5, 3d5+7)
viligant adamantium plate mail of travelling (-2, -4) [-2, +11]
padded elven chain mail of resiliance [+0, +5]

The other message was yielded twice.

I would just like to point out that the NG does not care if they get credit or not for their discoveries. They all personally know that they can take credit for discoveries, if they wanted to.

Btw, reading the intro page on whatever guide is quite a good thing to do. Don't y'all read intro-pages when you start reading a new guide?

Oh and one last thing: What's so good about credit? In this particular case anyway. Oh! So you want people to say: "Good work! Now we know!" and then it turns out that someone else actually knew before you did... *shrugs* Blah!

P.S. No offence intended of course. :) D.S.

meh...it's just the idea. I don't really care if someone knows I found something or submitted this or that idea...but when someone else tries to get credit for it...THEN you get angry. Cause if anyone should be getting credit it's you.

Goodness. It looks like these are the items you always get. :/ What's so good about a wand of door creation with 100 charges? :P Cripes, this is much less exciting now. :(

WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!! DO YOU REALIZE WHAT YOU JUST SAID? OH MY GOODNESS!!!

I read your post over and over Palagran...cause I knew something was in it that had caught my eye once. Then I realized. WHAT CAN U DO WITH A WAND OF DOOR CREATION WITH 100 CHARGES IN A CERTAIN LIBRARY WHILE MUTE?

What if TB coded in the Weird Tome readability?

100 chrages!!! HAH!!! I counted it presonally, it needed something like ~450 charges...

Palagran>was your char a wizard? I'm just now playing (cheated, testing) archer game, he is invisible and standing in front of the main hall, has 60 arrows of thunder (made them herself ;) but those darn bugs can see me when I shoot them... I must get teleport controll, and wand of teleportation (I found pool on CoC:1, so teleport controll isn't that hard, but for WoT:
either wish for it or go and get it from the dusty cave)...


but holy two-handed sword of devastation (+2, 7d5+8) [-1, +0] *is* good :))

Even if you could get the wierd tome using wands of door creation you cant read it.I guess we'll have to wait for the next version to see if its readble.According to NG all that a bard with 100 Lit nad 100 music managed to get this out of it
was that were a few musical notes in it.

Yes, I thought of that after I posted it. I didn't think it would come up.

My PC is a drakeling archer.

You can't teleport inside the complex.

Perhaps someone can play the notes in the book other than the PC. The Minstrel or Filk should be able to.

hm... I just got in, and yes, the items were the same... stupid, IMHO, to make non-random items in exactly the same statues...

<<Perhaps someone can play the notes in the book other than the PC. The Minstrel or Filk should be able to. >>
if you're right, there would be something in the exe... maybe I try to search it...

I think it's TB's personal HoF: where all his friends, his "beutiful girlfriend" etc are... nothing else... those names are anagrams... maybe somebody should find them out... :)

That's *alot* of work... The easiest way I found to get him out of the library is to use a monster as a lure. I trick the monster into attacking him (ventriloquism works well here) then teleport the librarian. I walk over to the stairs with the monster following. With a little luck the librarian will come around looking for the monster and will walk over to the stairs as well.

Also, I'm pretty sure you don't have to be mute. I got him to give me the Weird Tome by leading him to the rift and talking to him there. I *think* the trick is to not talk to him while in the library.
