What is your win/loss rato?

[gangbandit]

I am on my 11th attempt to win the game.
3 lossess at dl 98 cl 47. I got bored/reckless at the end of the game. Painful to lose, and I feel like failure.
So, what is your win/loss rato? Maybe If I compare with others, I'll feel better

I win 75 to 80% of the games I attempt. Most of my losses come within the first 5 levels or either side of DL20. Sometimes I die in the DL40s /50s if I’m really struggling to find good gear.

I play forced descent so I can’t grind the DL30s until I’m ready to go deeper.

i dont think this question has an answer.

if looking at lifetime - which you should - then it's abysmal. i played on/off for almost 4 years without understanding some very basic aspects of the game. then i got better, meaning i knew what was it that i was supposed to look out for, but would still forget stuff while playing. Then i remembered the stuff but would press too many buttons.
I had to learn to play,
then i had to learn to play,
and then i had to learn to play,
before i got good.

i would say i even got worse now, meaning i'm not so detail obsessed now and i have a higher failure rate now, than i did 1-2 years ago, because i've won enough times that i don't care much about perfection. But if you put money on the table and a PC in front of me, i would almost certainly win that one game.

I usually Borg. The borgs win/loss is currently about .... 0 out of thousands. Working on the borgs end game

I am currently stuck in a rut - cannot progress past DL 33.
Tedious boring battles with endless T.
Endless poisoning.
I can take out a few of T, then need to rest. Nowhere to rest though, as no stealth.
Every room in the dangeon monsters are after me.
I go through CLW like there is no tomorrow.
Nothing good drops out of monsters.
Nothing good appears in the black market.
Blackguard has pitiful healing.
I tried to dive deeper, but it just get worse.
I tried to un-dive, but even that is problematic - how do you reach the stairs through the pack of T?
I tried that +2 stealth armour, stealth is still Bad, battles even worse.
Any tips would be appreciated.
Dump attached.

The forum also does not work. I get 500 error, sometimes it posts, sometimes it does not.

Vanilla section of forums is screwed up - you constantly get errors when posting, responses don't get tracked in statistics, and attachment don't work. Other sections seem to work better.

Yes, I have trouble deleting stuff as moderator too.

Is it by design that "Leap into Battle" and "Wirlwind attack" do not add blows to the weapon, which already has 2 blows?
I am pretty sure my Katana with 2 blows/round at CL 30 still does 2 blows when I leap or whirlwind...

IIRC they have their own attack rate depending on your level, but I could be wrong about that.

If I took a lifetime average then it's going to be LOW. Five per cent or something awful.

I started playing nearly 30 years ago as a teenager. I was so bad back then - didn't even get close to meeting Morgy let alone wielding Grond. This was before forums were really popular, but I seem to remember being part of a community on AOL. I didn't really understand resistances so would get fried/frozen/melted by the first big breather I came across. In fact, I didn't even understand what free action meant so would regularly get stun-locked to death.

Now I'm older and wiser I reckon I can win about half the games I start. Unlike Grotug I rarely die in the early levels, most deaths come at clvl 40 and above when I get complacent (and perhaps a little bored). I have to say I enjoy the first 25 levels the most when every new bit of gear feels special and exciting.
