L26 Hurthling Bard Crushed by tons of luggage in a damp cave on level 5. (TotHK) This one upsets me because I had victory imo. - Pre-crowned with Protector. Had 80+ DV - Acid Ball +7 (Was looking forward to completing the mana temple for the first time) - Good Crossbow skills Basically what happened was, I went to the Rift after ToEF. Was unlucky and lost my climing set. Guess I should of brought two... Had no where near enough cash so I went to the damp caves where there is lots of monster generation to get cash. Put on autopickup for tools in case I got a climbing set. Picked up two statues along the way. Strength of Atlas wore off. *Dead* So close, but so far from beating this game. Thinking about throwing in the towel... |

Yes, keep playing. It took me a year to beat the game, and I got 2 wins in the same month:D Just pace yourself, and always take a time-out if you feel that you're getting cocky, tired, or feel perplexed by a problem, that's what the forums are for, unless you're some machismo guy:D "You try to give Fang, the large dog the bone. Fang, the large dog says,"Do you know who I am, mortal?!?!" My smartest dog ever:D |

i've been playing for about 2 and half years and not got a win but i never give up. i must admit if i played more sensibly i'd probably win. i usually play by the rule of " see a monster, kill it before it kills me" and quite often i get out of my depth instead of backing away to think about how avoid it if its too tough The stone giant runs away in fear.

Strength of atlas gives a very clear and unmissable warning when it's about to expire, so I've never had that death. I have broken my leg while kicking the wall and died (character was wearing ring of weakness, mabye that's why he had to die). That put me off ADOM...for about an hour. |

after more than a year of constant adoming, ive been playing on and off for a while before digging completely into the game again..its almost always like that, when i get a character i like to high levels(not SO high actually..around twenties) i use all my experience and make the best efforts to keep him alive, so it REALLY pisses me off when i die for REALLY stupid reasons and this keeps me away from the game for a while. Never too long anyway.. |

I haven't played for about a week and a half lately, hangin with friends lately playing Airsoft and Halo 2. I think I might play again some more, probably a trollish wizard again....

I always get the carrying talents and keep my inventory clean and practical, so even if I'm using strength of atlas and it runs out, I'll be overburdened instead of dead. Yes, Adom is fiendish. Every single turn, there are a hundred possible ways to die instantly. And when you're in danger, you have to correctly choose the one life-saving option out of a thousand choices. The following is a real Adom message: The homunculus hits you. You suddenly fall asleep! Do you want to continue to read the spellbook of Calm Monster? [y/N] |
