      Later that same game...

      I found this. Emotionally, I like this one better, but pragmatically, the first one is still better (damage/turn).

            the Long Bow of Rhuorim (x5) (+19, +31)
            Slays evil creatures


            That is crazy! 235 damage per shot with ordinary arrows. 435 with seeker arrows of wounding.

              I dont know what the chances for "slay evil" on a bow are. I have seen the occasional branding bow, maybe 2 or 3 in dozens of games. This is the first time I have encontered a slay evil bow. Thankfully it also has good values for multiplier and damage, so a post on the braggart thread was in order.

                I would have posted damage infos for various arrows in my quiver as part of my braggart post had I found said launcher. As such, my Hobbit ranger throws pebbles in your direction in jealousy. And the launcher has +4 stealth, +3 Wisdom, two important sustains, and confusion protection. To have so much useful utility and ridiculous damage; I mean that is seriously bonkers. Well, I guess it makes up for the ring of Leren you found earlier (though as I scroll further down the thread I see you also got the 14d8 uber mace, which should honestly have a power rating of 1000). At least my ho-hum heavy crossbow I recently acquired on DL34 has +8 speed and slays dragons. What's the power rating of your launcher?

                  The reason I didnt post damage numbers is that the bow was originally found by a rogue. However, I proceeded to play a ranger with the same randart set and here is the dump:



                  The highest damage vs evil I had was shy of 1200, you can see the damage of my last quiver in the dump, basically everything does 1k vs evil.

                  Edit: power is 289

                    a) the Lance 'Ularu' (7d8) (+9,+27) <+4>
                    Found lying on the floor at 1650 feet (level 33)

                    holy casters).

                    Combat info:
                    2.8 blows/round.
                    With +3 STR and +0 DEX you would get 3.1 blows
                    With +0 STR and +2 DEX you would get 3.3 blows
                    Average damage/round: 744.1 vs dragons and 295.2 vs. others.

                    And yes, I am a paladin. Love it when the game gets cliche.

                        Here is a bizarre item I found - it maps and lights an entire level - but I can't read any scrolls because of the -3 light :/

                        There are some other nice aspects to it, and some other not so nice aspects...

                        Code:
                        l) the Arkenstone of Gelwilda <+3, +5, +2, -3> (charging) {cursed}
                             Taken from a chest found at 2550 feet (level 51)
                             
                             It paralyses you every now and then.
                             It poisons you from time to time.
                             +3 wisdom.

                             -3 light.
                             Provides immunity to Fire.
                             Provides resistance to Nexus, Chaos.
                             Cannot be harmed by Fire.
                             Feather Falling.  Prevents teleportation.  
                             Intensity -3 light.
                             
                             When activated, it lights and maps the entire level, sensing
                             objects.
                             Takes 107 to 210 turns to recharge at your current speed.
                             Your chance of success is 94.7%

                          Interesting item - presumably you could use it if you somehow got >3 light from elsewhere ?

                            Yeah, I would definitely consider it.

                            The "Prevents teleportation" aspect is also a bit unnerving - I've never intentionally played that way. I like carrying a few !PD with me, they are disposable, but I could probably live without them at this stage.

                              That’s a swap item; you wear it to take the stairs, use it, then forget about it until you’re going down again. (With the option of swapping for fights against big fire breathers.)

                                Yet another item from the Touhou mod, this time more risky to use:

                                STR :     22   It allows you to levitate.                                                                              
                                INT :     15   It prevents teleportation.

                                Randart names can sometimes be weird in my translation, I'll be looking into that later; anyway, +4 CON/CHR/speed, an immunity, insanity resistance... and anti-teleportation. That was one of early game quest rewards, by the way.
