    Morgoth Nomorgoth

    Well, I killed Morgoth for the first time today, after about a month and a half of playing Angband pretty steadily. It was slightly anti-climactic, in that I came in totally loaded for bear, with a ton of consumables, lots of get-aways and banishments/destructions, lots of speed, etc. As a result, it took a long time, but I was never desperate (as I've been fighting some other uniques, whose appearance I could not predict). I think I did one destruction, a few teleport others (Morgoth twice and a few nasty non-uniques), and maybe 5-6 banishments or mass banishments. Luckily, some of the times he brought guys in he either didn't bring many nasty guys in or those that did were behind ones I could basically ignore, so I was able to get more shots on goal rather than spending more time getting rid of flunkies. He also never tried to slow me until way late in the combat, so I got a lot of extra attacks in that way, or used them to heal up.

    After I had tried a bunch of different character combinations, it was a plain old human warrior who ended up killing Morgoth.

    Alas, I can't say I never "retrieved" my character. I did that a few times in his life. When my characters died out of stupidity or bad luck, I let them die, but because of the circumstances in which I was playing the game, I couldn't help hitting a wrong key every once in a while, and I decided that on those rare occasions when that actually proved fatal, I would bring the character back. That ended up being about three times.

    Anyway, that was entertaining; Angband sucked up a lot of time and was fun. I think I will install it on the netbook I travel with, as it is a good game for a computer like that and it would be fun on plane rides, stuck in airports and hotel rooms, etc.

    I have a couple suggestions. You should never be below 30 speed if fighting morgoth, a doublemove by morgoth can kill almost every character from full health, yours included with a doublemanastorm, if there are monsters around, it's actually likely. If you find yourself below 30 speed temporarily, boost yourself with temporary speed, like potions.
    Your saving throw is a bit pathetic, which introduced the risk of slowing by morgoth, but there's not much you can do about it, although a higher WIS would be nice.

    Overall, though, congratulations on winning with one of the harder combinations. High-elf and Dunadan, for example, are both plain superior as warriors or anything else to humans. As such, the win is with a challenge race.

      Thanks to your title, I now mentally read "Morgoth" as "More Goth". Thanks. >.>

          I think he probably had 30 speed when he fought Morgoth -- maybe it was the crown and the hammer that burdened him in the end? I didn't look closely at the inventory, so maybe not.

              I don't think I was ever below 30 speed when fighting him. My 'native' speed was 28 or so, 38 when I wielded the crossbow (which I did), and 48 when I sped myself. So even after he slowed me, my speed was still around 38.

                I am sure the hammer burdened me. I might have also still been under Morgoth's "slow" when I retired the character. But as I think I mentioned in my original AAR I was definitely quite speedy. I was the one getting the double-moves, not Morgoth.

                    That was really nice, though I wish it had come earlier. I already had 10 speed boots, just with one less armor factor. I guess the Angband version of Amazon Prime is "find it yourself."

                      Humans are not that bad after you get something to compensate lack of infra/see_inv. They advance fast especially as warriors and have decent hit-die. Elves and half-elves are the real challenge races in angband, elves especially. Dwarf is probably the easiest as warrior though (very good infravision, high CON and STR and hit-die). Just don't play stealthy way.

                        Why are elves a challenge?

                          Lack of CON and hit dice.

                            In a nutshell. Also lack of STR and fighting skill are a factors when you play warrior. Even hobbit is better than elf, thanks to bonus to CON.
