Age: 40 (grown-up)

YOUR HISTORY:
Your mother is a mighty enchantress. She is unmarried. Your father
is living in the vicinity of your mother's tower. He is a humble shepherd.
As a child you lived through happy days. Your parents tried to ease
your life as much as possible and gave you a lot of comfort.
In your youth you became seriously ill and suffered for many years.
When your disease finally was cured you were left weakened, both
physically and spiritually, and bereft of the joys of youth.
Your young adulthood was characterized by hard and long work. You
had decided to study under a renowned master. To your great disappointment
you had to find out, that he was a hard, unjust and tyrannic man,
embittered by his old age. Your apprentice years were quite terrible.
You decided to become a Fighter.

Sorry for your loss :(

NEVER take Doppleganger Kings lightly, they can kill you, no matter what your level is and no matter how good DV/PV or weapons you have.

Especially female doppleganger kings, their gender confusion makes them even meaner.

774 battle bunnies killed? Good work.

Well, a tip from me would be to always bless the weapons you plan to use a lot. It slighty ups the dice rolls, which always is a good thing.

Your using the patch arent you? I've noticed that the status line about damage comes out messed up like yours when i use it "ÆRight hand: Î+57Æ bonus to hit, Î6d5+41Æ damage"

I also noticed your hurthling weighed only 1 pound? hehe.

Seriously though, for advice...How exactly did you try to take out the Doppleganger king? You know they match your DV/PV and Damage right? If you had some nice wands i would have recommended going Beserk so his DV dropps horribly, unwielding your weapon and zapping him to death.


You had some NASTY corruptions, guess you just got unlucky in that department

Why did you take Affinity with thrown rocks and clubs and Keen shot without taking Alert. Were you going for the Missile weapon master talent? You realize you cant get it without alert? I also find the gains % more experience to be worthless talents, and if your having problems with burdening theres much better ways than spending talents to lighten your load

At first I didn't really notice it'a a Dop - KING and kept tapping the key - it was a tension room :/
I couldn't use wands due to a corruption effect.
Luckily I've overcome suicidal thoughts by now and have a lesson learned.

I'm not really an expert on those Talents, I just choose what seems beneficial to me.

some strange things I noticed:

roughly around the Earthe Temple my corruption level started *rocketing* up - I got a new corruption every two penetrated levels. I'm afraid I was only a step from transforming into a Chaos being, even if I didn't get myself killed. is it normal to get 80% of the corruptions during a very short game time??

speed. Near the end of life this char had the speed score around 150. but still I had problems outrunning monsters, even if theire speed, when I *l*ooked at them was like 50 points lower.
One time I ate a quickiling lord corpse I got a message: 'Suddenly a strange thought crosses your mind. Live fast die young.' Strange. Is the speed responsible for such rapid advancement in corruption?

the scorched spear
the crown of leadership
the iron gauntlets "Ironfist"
the emerald dagger "Serpent's Bite"

How could I have omitted those artifacts??

Did you use the ancient scythe or 'u'se the orbs?
Did you spend lots of time on the lower levels of the CoC or the unreal cave system, the corruption speed is quite high there.
Also you passed the day 90 limit so the corruption speed increased.

"One time I ate a quickiling lord corpse I got a message: 'Suddenly a strange thought crosses your mind. Live fast die young.'"
That message is just a warning that quickling corpses shorten your lifespan

You were using a 2-handed weapon, so you probably had low DV and corrupting monsters kept hitting you a lot.
If you're feeling happy, don't worry, it'll go away.

Only Quickling king and queen corpses shorten lifespan. You were probably slow because of stiff muscles corruption (base movment energy 1500). That seems to make sense with the monsters with a speed of ~100 outrunning your ~150 PC.

ouch, unlucky about the DP king. nearly everyone learns about those the hard way. The rule is: wands, bolts, or RUN. never try melee (never EVER) and of course you can't use missiles.

couple of tips: always bless your weapon. 1.5x damage to all undead and demons is worth one potion of water in my book.
your weapon skill marks are divided up all over the place. I prefer to stick to one weapon type and try to get to grand mastery as soon as possible, it helps a lot in the late game.

nice equipment there (really nice artifacts! shame you didn't find the crown of leadership, it's great) why weren't you wearing ironfist? and why the earth orb rather than fire? strength rules all - hell, even my casters hold the fire orb for most of the game. oh, and if you were only carrying 4000-odd s of stuff, why the girdle of carrying not the mithril? it may be only 2 pv, but it adds up. oh, and yes it's normal for corruptions to come thick and fast on the low levels of the CoC. Don't hang around there and always wear 7LB if you've got them.
What do you wish for? wands of cat repellent_

>>>You were using a 2-handed weapon, so you probably had low DV and corrupting monsters kept hitting you a lot.

part of my strategy - I had PV about 50, so I was nearly indestructible

>>>You were probably slow because of stiff muscles corruption (base movment energy 1500).

that seems to be it. you must have the Alert talent:)

>>> why weren't you wearing ironfist?

I failed to find it; I guess it just looks like normal gauntlet when unindentified, so I ignored it.

Ironfist is unidentified as 'Iron gauntlets 10s'.
The rust monster touches your blessed Trident of the Red Rooster. Nothing happens. You laugh at the monster's pitiful attempt.

I actually attacked a dopplganger king by mistake, I was milking an arrow trap with my archer and held down Ctrl+t and didn't notice it before it was next to me, and I didn't realize it was a DP king until i got confused, so I put on coward tactics and moved aroun then put on my ring of mental stability and went berserk on it and killed it in two hits.

PV 50 isn't even close to be indestructible, and DV is better IMHO..

Me too, DV is teh shiznat. DV can't and won't be ignored, but occasionally the monsters hit you with criticals and/or punch through your armour.

And IMO it's cooler to play a swift and dodgy character who cannot be hit ^_^

More doppleganger king tactics: If you must kill in melee, darken the area and equip something penetrating.

I always fight with a one handed weapon and a shield, DV is important. I use very agressive tactics as soon as I get tactics skill, but once it's at 100 the DV loss is minimal.

And a hint for corruptions: Track the bug temple, and smashing the statues will yield you 6 cursed scrolls of chaos resistance among other things.
