    [FA] Stuck down in Amon Rudh

    Got careless and my last (ok, my only .. ..) ?oRecall burned by some red "K"iller beetle. Now, it seems, I'm stuck down in Amon Rudh without recall and ident, what really sucks ... And most scrolls that are generated seem to be of door/stair location, yet going down is always easier than finding some reachable stairs which go up - I wonder if the RNG is trying to tell me something .

    However, what would you do now?

    Code:

    Firstly, sorry Nick, but looks like the artifact 'found turn' bug has returned!

    A friend of mine might suggest taking advantage of the double stairs exploit before Nick closes it... ie keep going up and down the same staircase but taking the opportunity to go up two when it arises. With your stealth you should easily then be able to make it to Ephel Brandir and buy an adequate supply of ?WoR. I wouldn't advocate such a cheap trick of course

      Yes, I have a friend like that, too
      One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
      In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

        No need to worry I think, I started this char pre-0.3.3 .. or ?? ..the message history looks strange:
        First, with the Lamp, it works correctly, then, with Dethanc and Colannon, it doesn't, than with the randart(?) it does again .. or have I typed that manually? Don't think so, but my .. how was it called? .. isn't the best these days

        Now, it's a most evil friend you have there .. guess the RNG will not like that suggestion at all .. however I'll try that .. as a mage with Con 11 I think I'm allowed to cheat here and there a little bit .. (the RNG gave me that char when I wasn't able to decide what to play )
        No, I don't have a clue 'bout C, and I'm not starting my own variant.

          Jumping levels like that just began to get a little boring (btw. .. do those player mummies and skeletons go away if you re-visit a level later, or are they stuck there once placed? If yes, returning to AR might get interesting ..) .. what was I about to say .. oh, yes, boring, when I suddenly got the message:

          "Wait, this may take some time!"(or something like that)
          "Proud warlords struggle in this land; there are no neutrals"

          Dungeon mapping and monster detect revealed this - isn't such a forrested, open-skyed area unfit for being 6(?) levels underground in the hill of Amon Rudh?
          And "This level will never appear again - do you really want to leave?"
          .. yes, because everyone is awake and ready to get me, and I'm out of !speed etc.
          .. but ..
          .. no, no, this character is not going to die here !!!




          And the insanity continues .. at level 20, I hear:

          Goblin-drums sound in the deep Moria: Doom .. Doom ..




          Guess that's what I get for cheating my way up to the daylight ...
