Ranger in danger, need help from a stranger

If you detect monsters often you could go a bit deeper. The rpoison ring or any item is about to turn up. Well, sometimes the RNG sort of delays the deliverance. ^^
Try to get some potions of rpoison (if not found in the dungeon they show up in the black market every now and then).

Look out for Drolems!

The Drolem (Green 'g') === Num:472 Lev:44 Rar:3 Spd:+10 Hp:2500 Ac:130 Exp:12000 A constructed dragon, the drolem has massive strength. Powerful spells weaved during its creation make it a fearsome adversary. Its eyes show little intelligence, but it has been instructed to destroy all it meets. This dragon is normally found on dungeon level 44, and moves quickly. It may fire a missile. It may breathe poison, and is also magical, casting spells which blind, confuse or slow; 1 time in 5. It can open doors and bash down doors. It is cold blooded. It is not detected by telepathy. It resists lightning, fire, cold and poison. It cannot be frightened, confused or slept. It takes quite a while to see intruders, which it may notice from 250 feet. It can claw to attack with damage 3d10, claw to attack with damage 3d10, bite to poison with damage 5d10, and bite to poison with damage 5d10.

Greater Basilisk is another dangerous poison breather.

Thanks for your advice! I dived a bit deeper, avoiding everything that looked dangerous, until the Phoenix double moved me and did me in. I had detected him but foolishly thought I would make it around the corner before he caught up with me instead of teleporting. YASD, I guess. Ah well, this guy lacked a bit of everything, better luck next time.

Be sure to switch away from 3.1.0 before you start your next game. Either 3.0.9 or 3.1.1 is a better choice.
