What's this about the Puppy Quest? Why is it so hard? I tried it, and I was attacked by an overwhelming amount of Blink Dogs. Is that it? |

There are a few things you want to know about the puppy cave: 1. It is more dangerous than the other dungeons around. 2. You are not likely to save the puppy 3. The PC is more likely to contain altars (I think special features in general) than other dungeons. 4. The ant hive on PC:2 is very dangerous 5. The wide open area on PC:5 is very dangerous 6. There is a lesser vault (one quarter of the screen has lots of monsters which get tougher as you progress toward the center of that quarter) on PC:6 It is supposed to be hard. If you read your obituaries, it says you were killed in a "dangerous cave". Blink dogs are very nasty and have no specific relation to the puppy cave. Blink dogs to not attack lawfuls.

The puppy quest is usually undertaken by characters that start off somewhat powerful. If your PC has low toughness, low PV, and not a spellcaster, it is very difficult. Try a tougher powerful race/class combo, or just do other quests. The reward for that quest is just a Lawful boost to your allignment. Put me in the 'fool filter', where I belong! |

The puppy quest was added in to the game as an extra challenge for experienced players. Even for a good char you've only got maybe a 50% survival rate. I usually avoid it unless I feel certain I can get through without problems. Waldenbrook, the dwarven shopkeeper, mumbles: "I'd offer 9 gold pieces for yer dwarven child corpse." |
