So yeah as usual my char is on its way to get precrowned (never say no to a free artifact).
My problem is I'm N= and on UD4. So I don't have a clue what to do to quickly drop/raise my alignment. Any tips?

sac 20 gold to a nonaligned altar as for a while untill your alignment changes.

Just attack some non-hostile monsters then. They are easy enough to find

they are as easy as finding a potion of poison.
one of my winning characters had only one potion of poison (that i knew) generated.

The point is, sometimes they come around easily sometimes they don't.

I guess most of you didn't look at the acronym UD and the word quickly.
Anyway, I found 1 billion blink dogs and killed them :P

Am I the only one always getting something shitty like whirlwind (i hate slings), black tome, jet black glaive or ironfist (it works but still not).
Been precrowned like 10 times always gotten one of these. I've also had the whirlwind all of the 4 times I've had a surge of power.

I was just thinking that too, I often seem to get the same things when precrowned:

wyrmlance, twice
shining long spear soaker, twice
jet black glaive long sting, twice
rune covered sling whirlwind, three times
and a bunch others once, of course. I've also found whirlwind about five times in various places, including twice, uncannily, dropped by an ancient blue dragon in the BDC, and the glaive long sting twice in undead greater vaults.

that's weird considering the huge number of artifacts I've never seen.

I have precrowned my self only about five times, got so far: iron crown of havlor, vanquisher and some shit icluding whirlwind.
Surges of power - I think I've gotten WW two times. But I've also had Robes of resistance, executor, vanquisher... those are what I recall.

I use Togu's patch, which up untill recently i didn't know screwed up the Precrown list. I got vanquisher in one game with a Beastfighter and suicided in frustration.

Ive never gotten the black tome. In the few precrowns ive done i have gotten the hammer of the gods, Natures companion leather armour, scorched spear.

I don't have too much luck with altars, and i dont have the patience to farm for herbs to please the gods.

Crowning comes from a set list of artifacts, but precrowning can give you anything.

I usually have good luck with precrowning. I've never seen vanquisher, but I like using shields anyway.

Bah, I almost always get the Black Tome... Too bad you can't sack the crap right back.

I've got good luck too, Wyrmlance and Nature's Companion have come many times. On real crownings, Ring of Immunity and Sun's Messenger many times.

But I'm waiting to get the Black Tome as precrowning... I'm sure Adom has it coming soon.

If you are running the patch on your game, just use another .exe to generate a savefile, then move it to the patched one, and your artifact list will not be screwed up.

You need to be Extremely Close, not very close.
Absolutly close for crowning.

An optimist sees a light at the end of that tunnel.

SOMETIMES you can get precrowned at very close, but that usually happens on your second/third precrowning, and I've never done it.
If you're feeling happy, don't worry, it'll go away.
