    Essentially you get to take a second shot before the monsters get another move.

    There's a longer answer involving Angband's energy system, which I've never really sat down and tried to understand. I think there's something on the thangorodrim site that explains it.

      Simply said, one shot takes only half a turn.
      If you can convincingly pretend you're crazy, you probably are.

          I think the confusion is that with multiple shots per turn, unlike multiple blows, you take your shots individually, i.e., you can aim at two different monsters within the same turn, expending two arrows. It seems like you're taking two turns, but you're using only half the energy it normally takes to shoot.

          So in the original question about magically multiplying arrows, the answer is no. You've only taken one half of your turn. Only after you've fired a second time have you completed a full turn.

          I *think* that's how it works. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

          Edit: I wonder what happens if you have multiple shots, shoot once, and then take a melee swing for four blows at a nearby monster (or perform some other action). Is that kosher? I suppose the monsters get a free hit on you eventually?

            It's kosher, and for simple cases will not give monsters free attacks compared to less intricate attack sequences.

              Roughly speaking, there is a 50% chance an equal speed monster will hit back after the first shot when you have 2/round. Whether that counts as a "free attack" is a matter of definition. If you shoot a monster 2 spaces away, it's "free attack" is usually to move adjacent to you, again a question of definition.

                Wow, I had no idea it was something this complicated... but I think I got it now. Thanks!


                Only two more n00b questions:

                What is the "x 3", "x 2", etc, missile launchers have next to their names?

                And, the only way to be safe from monsters with breath weapons is to teleport them far away? Because I make sure not to be in a direct line of them, but their breath weapons seem to hit me anyway. The blast of lightning/nether/whatever suddenly turns in midair and hits me.
                He hit me for HOW MUCH?????

                  Damage multiplier, ie. a longbow will deal 3x the damage it usually should.

                  [Projectile Damage + To-Dam (Projectile) + To-Dam (Launcher)] * Multiplier

                  Something like that.

                    The shooting speed thing is straightforward once you understand the energy system, but that takes a lot of words to explain. I said "roughly" because I ignored things to give a simpler response.

                    You can target, and be targeted by, monsters that are not in one of the 8 basic directions.

                    There is a rule about the path ranged attacks take. Search rgra for "hockeystick" for more about it. It is not symmetric, so it is possible that you cannot target a monster, but it can target you, if your path to it goes through a wall but the reverse path does not.

                        I'd say you're getting on famously, diving with the best of them. One thing to look out for is the basic four elemental resistances, which you're obviously aware of, else you wouldn't have made it as deep as you have. It shouldn't be too hard at this stage - I'd say it'd be worth swapping out the rings of damage to cover them - or else some rings of CON. Otherwise, you run the risk of getting breathed on stepping off the downstairs and meeting a quick end. Your detection apparatus looks good - I'd recommend a source of magic mapping to round out the kit to make extra sure that you're not within the LOS of anything you're vulnerable against. Other than that, good work - it looks like you know what you're about.

                        edit: since you have rConf and rBlind, you don't need the _telSelf, the scrolls are sufficient. -telOther would be nice as well.

                          OH NO! I totally forgot I had replaced my leather armor of resistances with that bronze dragon scale mail...

                          Oh well. Killed by a Lesser Balrog in dungeon level 87.

                          I stepped in a trap and summoned an entire screen of balrogs. But, wow, I can't believe my ring of speed (+7) couldn't even get me a turn to get out of there!

                          Note to self: drag along a rod of trap detection next time.

                            Well, a lesson learned (I'm thinking more of the armour swap than the detection).

                            Console yourself with the fact that you've got further in a short time than many of us have in several years (nine in my case - my deepest dive was only to about 3500').

                            Well done,

                              Okay. I am steadily recovering after my big fail. My next dwarven warrior wonders if he should keep the whip and Thengel for Rconf or Balli for the elemental resistances and the helm of telepathy?

                              Also, I've noticed that apparently, if there's an unique you should keep alive until very deep levels, it is Boldor the King of Yeeks. He appears with a whole *lot* of blue yeeks, which drop extremely good stuff in deeper levels... In the previous game, I had a blue yeek drop a ring of speed and other some artifact. They seem to drop more stuff even than orc or troll pits you find at these levels!
                              He hit me for HOW MUCH?????

                                Maybe it's just me, not to sound too harsh, but I find these full page character dumps (in the forum) annoying. Why not just post your character on the ladder and then post a link instead?
