    Competition 189

    Competition 189 is up. It's a Vanilla elf with Deathwreaker... and a couple of other things.

        Idle comment. As someone who is not sure what vanilla angband version , test fork etc. I'm currently running, I've clicked about every tab on the forum including news without getting to a quick & easy link to the latest official version. I mean yeah, I'll find it in a minute, but it shouldn't actually be this hard.

            It's front and centre on rephial, but you have a point.

              Just bought boots of speed (+6) in the black market for GP 21,000 for the competition character. That is way undervalued. So far I've found 2 Dwarvenkind Green DSM, +2 CON. (Retired the one with only +1 STR.) I found balance DSM of stealth, which is a really silly modifier on high DSM. (Even Craftsmanship would be better, as high DSM is heavy.)

                Congrats to Ingwe for taking yet another Vanilla comp, and to Thraalbee and Pete Mack for their respective 2nd and 3rd place finishes. Now go play comp 190!!!

                  The Craft realm kind of sucks in the early game for Monks.

                    I don't know if it's just me, but this Compo character's decent stealth doesn't seem to help at all even in the dungeon.

                      I think you are talking about Comp 190, not comp 189.

Well, we can do you blood and love without the rhetoric, and we can do you blood and rhetoric without the love, and we can do you all three concurrent or consecutive. But we can't give you love and rhetoric without the blood. Blood is compulsory. They're all blood, you see.”

                        Whoops. Yes, I was specifically talking about Compo 190. My bad.

                          Another mention to yrriban, who was coming on strong at the very end, but ran out of time. And to Nivim for a rather epic death at CL 50, but still going with LOW HP in keeping with the character.

                            This was fun - my character was going OK, but my last two weeks have been chaos and I didn't get back to it.
