---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rorq II, the trollish healer, was killed by a doppleganger king. He scored 28552 points and advanced to level 10. He survived for 0 years, 23 days, 23 hours, 45 minutes and 17 seconds (19977 turns). Rorq II visited 28 places. His learning score was modified by +1 during his career. His dexterity score was modified by +2 during his career. His toughness score was modified by +1 during his career. His appearance score was modified by +1 during his career. His perception score was modified by +3 during his career. He ended his adventuring life on the second level of some strange dwarven caves. 899 monsters perished under his attacks. The following two artifacts were generated during his adventure: the si the scythe of corruption "Moon Sickle" He possessed the following intrinsics: He was lucky. Fate smiled upon him. He had the following talents: Alert, Basher, Healthy, Potent Aura, Quick. He had a final speed score of 97 (final base speed: 102). He was religious. He did not ask for divine help. He was chaotically aligned. He was slightly tainted by Chaos. Come to think about it, I probably should have just restarted when I pulled a stupid and got that Moonsickle, blowing my chance for a fast Pre-crown. I had a really convenient altar, one floor above Dwarftown, where I would rampantly sacrifice rocks and SI spawns... Next time I think I'll focus a little more on range skills, so I can hit crap with arrows from time to time. Anyway - the dumb part: I actually escaped that doppleganger king *TWICE*, walked around upstairs to heal up *TWICE*, and went back for more abuse, thinking "oh, this time I"ll get it" ... yeah. Note to self: Overconfidence sucks. ...and with that, time to roll Rorq III... :) |

First - what is easy mode? Playing as a troll? Because that is not easy in the midgame as you just found out. Second - nice armor, just what a troll need - armor of hunger :). Well I guess you can just buy and carry more food Third - Doppleganger king at level 10??. Very brave. I just killed one with a level 22 Troll, it was still very dangerous. Fourth - "He did not ask for divine help". Well it must have been a one-hit wonder then... Overconfidence is really the father of all fuck-ups, and the mother is "assumption". So that is oh so true. If you add assumption: "I assume that is a weak monster" to overconfidence "I can take out anything on this dungeon level anyway" that a quick way to get R.I.P.-ed Happens to me a lot. Which is what I like about this game, you're never so good that you can't mess up and die horribly. |

Well, the easy mode thing was just me being silly - Troll Healer, Candle, Healthy talent... basically a mega-regen machine. ...and yeah, none of that matters if you get one-shotted. For food, I bought a *ton* of cooked lizards at the arena, so I was hooked up fairly well. I'm trying to figure out ways to make this regen battery even more effective... |

Ring or bracer of regeneration would buff it even more. BTW, why weren't you wearing your ring of damage? Trolls are easy at the beginning, but harder by midgame, I found. Food is hardly a problem though; with the Food preservation skill, my trolls just happen to eat whatever lies on the floor :-) Overconfidence is truly your greatest enemy in this game... All your base are belong to us. |

Trying yo go through the dwarven halls at level 10 is simply suicide. High level monsters like doppleganger kings are bound to spawn, and you will get your ass royally handed to you. You should have gone through the forest instead, or spent more time levelling up in other areas, hopefully gaining the teleportation spell.

This time around I'm taking it a bit easier along the way, unfortunately I don't have a convenient chaos altar right above the city now :( As for the ring of damage, well, it was never identified until it came out on my end game file... |

Trying to go through Dwarven halls is a calculated risk. But that means you go back if you see or suspect anything nasty waiting. Like that song, "Bravely bold sir Robin, bravely ran away..." Saying to yourself "I'm gonna go through Dwarven halls no matter what, so help me BOG" is begging to die... |

two scrolls of magic mapping, wand of monster detection and controlled on demand teleportation reduces risk to very low values. A root is a flower that disdains fame. Kahlil Gibran(1883-1931) |

Very low, but still there. I've had telporting balors get very close to me there, and great black wyrms in firing range when I teleport to the stairs. Magic map + invisibility + teleport is of great help (pretty much necessary at lower levels) but with a level 10 character I'd rather go with the more minimal risk of the forest.

I've had balors spawn (killed it with ALOT of magic missile), a tension room of greater balor (thank you eyes of mind! I could run away without seeing it). I go with any character that gets there, I'm just bored too easily of the animated forest. Homework is not meant for home! It's a sick verbal coincidence! -My brother |
