This is my next wizmode game to test the deeper levels. I took me awhile to get a game with a priest to dl20 without dying and I wanted to do that before turning it into a wizard mode game to at least have a respectable start.
This game I got to dl20 without dying, but I've died three times since. #1 to an ettin on dl31, #2 to a soldier ant on dl32, and #3 to a 5-headed hydra on dl33. If I could only be consistantly more careful and run away when I need to I could have gotten this far without dying.
I've been in the dl30s for awhile and only found one randart so far. It was the Metal Brigadine armor of Gimli and it was junk compared to the other armors I have.
I'm beginning to think that ego rings might be a little too common.
On my last trip down, I went back up to dl35 where it was safer, planning to stay till I found some better equipment, but I forgot to reset the recall level.
In DaJAngband, there are much less normal weapons which don't have a penalty for a priest (flails and morning stars are not considered priestly), but there are the magic staffs and the bone weapons like the salamander tooth I'm wielding now (which is inherently fire branded) which are okay for a priest to use.
I made the quarterstaff a double weapon with a bonus for priests partly so that a priest could have a weapon better than a whip that they could get multiple attacks with before finding a bunch of stat potions, but even with the bonus I could still only get one attack with a quarterstaff at the very beginning of the game. Maybe I should just put them back the way they used to be and get rid of double weapons, but then again it makes sense to get multiple attacks easier with a quarterstaff.
Haven't gotten to use the interesting new priest spells much yet. I just recently learned the silence summons spell (prevents targetted monster from summoning or healing itself), and I haven't found any dungeon books to test the other new spells.
