Certainly HE Rogue is a classic combo. (So is Kobold.) Don't know what a rouge is, but a whole lot of people have played it over the years

Rogue. damnit

Died at a very low DL to some paralysis.

Started over as a hobbit (I prefer them to HE) and what do ya know, Phial at DL3.

And Elvagil at DL12. Don't think I have ever been happy to get this artifact gut the dex and stealth are really nice at this lvl.

I'm back. Had to take hiatus from the forums because of a lack of internet.

Finished a standard game last night with nothing really interesting happening. Hit DL90 fairly quickly (around 45k) with end game armor but I just couldn't find myself a weapon I felt comfortable taking Sauron and Morgoth on with so I trolled around forever trying to get it. Since there was no chance anymore of having an early win decided to kill all the uniques and find Ringil (seems fit to me to kill Morgoth with it).

On another note right after killing Morgoth I went to read a PD to get myself away from some of the summons to heal up and regroup. Diddnt realise I was actually out of PD and read *Destruction* instead. Goodbye Grond and Crown. I like picking up Grond after the fight and knocking around things for a bit before I "Q". Oh well.

Since I usually don't have this great of a start I feel like I need to coin a verbiage for it.... we'll call it a Grotug start since I constantly have to read about his consistently better than mine beginnings.

Sifting around a normal DL 5 and I find 2 DD. Read them both and find myself at DL15 with a 2-9 feeling. Usually that means a Book of some sort, so no high excitement. Turns out I find a ROS +8 and a mace of *slay evil* that has telepathy to go with it. Fantastic. Kill a couple of orcs and then lo and behold MLA of RES. Not too shabby for @lvl 10.

That is a very, very good start. Dive!

Oh we are.... Hopefully not to hard but I am hitting every stair that I can find.

[chknflyrice]

Damn. Made it to around DL45 VERY quickly. Unfortunately. Step into a room, You hear things appear, something breaths (off screen), dead. I am guessing it was a Q that summoned some dragons. 280hp just doesn't cut it at that level.

LMAO. Farmer Maggot just dropped me BOS +3 Before I even bought a weapon on the new @.

[Grotug]

BoC? Man, he never drops me anything but "good" items. Best thing he dropped in a looong time that I can remember was a long bow (+3, +2) recently.

I love seeing him that early because he usually will drop a low + weapon or some armor for me. That was defiantly a first.

[Grotug]

I've seen him 3 times since my last post in this thread and he still is dropping things I leave on the ground; even when I fight him before entering the dungeon for the first time.

Once, when I was a total n00b, I got a Shining Dragon Scale Mail from Farmer Maggot. I was so new to the game I never realized it could be activated I thought it was just a cool item that gave me a big AC bonus.

[chknflyrice]

Rithril is HUGE.

Just read a DD from town and I appear between two undead pits on DL 95. No real problem. TO the reavers when they tunnel up to me and just hack away at the rest. Kill the reavers when they show back up and now I have a ton of loot to sort through.

Nothing really interesting has happened but I have found some fantastic randarts this game for (almost) no real risks. MOD of Gondolin (+17+20) found lying on the floor, Balance DSM found lying on the floor, 3 rings of power in two different vaults, and I have to ability to have immunity to all base res. All resistances are covered (which seems a real problem with randarts) with no stat swaps and I have 20 speed wearing no ROS.

Farming up some consumables atm then going to pay Sauron a quick visit (and it should be quick).

[chknflyrice]

@Sideways

Lmao I know I did that for a long time when I was a kid playing this game. I really didn't have any clue what was going on and just used whatever sounded cool.

[Pete Mack]

Up until the final fights, Mod of Gondolin is hard to beat. Used one as a HE mage, as a way to get EXP fast. Even a Mage can take down Wyrms and giant uniques (as well as undead) with one.
