*drum roll*
...I've just found a lightweight Holy Avenger which takes me into three figure damage territory and gives me See Invisible (always my greatest worry) and pFear.
Time to take to the stairs.Leave a comment:

At DL 20 you aren't vulnerable to anything. You just need to use magic devices for until you find a better weaponLeave a comment:

I vaguely remember when liquid refreshments were available; was water always a 'clear potion'?
Strange game, this one: a cave orc dropped Boots of Speed +9 at DL17, so I'm now sprinting around DL20ish with over 300HP but doing next to no damage and having the princely sum of two resistances: the half-troll's inherent rDark, and pFear from a Ring of the Dog. No free action and no see invisible make me nervous.
I'm over a thousand Uruks from CL31, but I'm feeling very vulnerable. Whilst at the same time feeling very invulnerable.Leave a comment:

Good thing you didn't dump that clear potion, thinking "oh, it's just water"!Leave a comment:

And there was me being all grateful for having just found a lantern...

A startling speedgasm on DL69: BoS +6, BoS +9, and 4x RoS.
Only kept the BoS (ex Bile Demon) so I'm not sure what dropped the other stuff, although they were in the vicinity of my first two Great Wyrms of X (as opposed to Great X Wyrms).
Crisis over. Carry on.Leave a comment:

Speed is generally very easy to come by in 3.3.2, particularly with randarts. This simply appears to be one freak game: CL46/DL68 and so far just the two RoS and a single (and feeble) BoS.Leave a comment:

A bunch of artifacts got minor speed boosts for awhile (IIRC in an attempt to smooth out the speed-gain curve), and then we nerfed them back down after it was realized just how much of a difference that made to game balance. At least, I think that's how it went.Leave a comment:

Yes, yes it is.
Was quickly followed by another RoS+8, and I'm able to wear both of them.
Have also found two randart boots:
a) [2,+34] with +4 STR/INT/speed, frAct, Regen, a 200HP breath (mrs scud would say that some of my old shoes are similarly potent), and aggravation.
b) [7,+18] with, um, pretty much nothing. Shard, Chaos and sustain STR.
Neither made it onto my shoe rack and I'm still wearing the only pair of regular 'speeds' that I've found (+3).
Have cleaned out Huan and Ungo, had to run from Kronos for lack of healing, and am still dodging the big angels.Leave a comment:
