I received the invite. So I came. You know, try to better our relations and all. Why can't we all be friends?

But, err... the note may have been lost in translation. I think, I'm the dish.

I call that the Atlas and Huan vault. If one of those 2 is inside, I can wobble around the border till they trample all other monsters that wake up and move close, then open the vault and -to the 5 or so remaining uniques away, opening the sesame to a somewhat diminished (by monsters picking up and/or destroying), but still marvellous haul.

Alternatively, I may burn 2-3 mass banishment scrolls, but thats rarely worthwhile; if I get the vault very early, I probably dont have the health to survive mass banishment, and if late, I probably dont want to invest 2-3 of the scrolls.

A mage equipped with Kelek´s can easily plunder it, like everything else in the game.

If none of the above applies though, I politely decline and move on.

I had to decline, much to my chagrin. It was just too much. Other than the visible uniques on that shot, there was also Saruman further to the right.

I considered using the rods of teleport other to get rid of the nastiest uniques and banish an eye druj (been killed by them too many times). I could probably then pick the rest one by one.

But it was too risky. All uniques were awake by the time I got to the vault after cleaning up the rest of the level and following me from within. As soon as I dug that opening I would probably be either teleported inside or otherwise overhwelmed by the monster density that would just consume all my healing.

Hellpit is a seriously nasty vault with way too little of a reward -- there's only 10 "8" spots in the vault and a gigantic number of monsters. Too bad there's no way with the current vault syntax to specify "nice item with no monster on it".

Bahahaha! All of that... and Itangast is thrown in.

"Pretty great party we've got here."

"Yeah, its not too bad."

"Aw crap, who invited Itangast?"

"Heyguys! Heyguys! Ohmygod! I am soooooo stoked just to be here! You guys are like soooo famous! What are we gonna do? Can I help? Ohmygod!!!"

"Ugh... get out of here, Itangast."

"Yeah, go home, Moon Moon."
