Thanks for all the suggestions. I managed to find a longbow of power the night after I first posted, which made me realize just how crappy that Shortbow of Lothlorien was. Since then I’ve…
- Found a Longbow of Lothlorien
- Pushed my CON to 18/200 thanks to the switch to the Ring of Brian
- Upgraded my weapon to something that hits a bit harder.
- Gotten another stack of Slay Evil ammo
Here’s the dump:
I’m wondering about my CON, though… 18/220 is the max, right? Is there any benefit in that last 2 points of CON? I’ve recently found a cloak that would give me +6 CON, but I can’t swap it out because I’d drop below +20 speed.
How many consumables are recommended for the end game, and how many slay evil/holy might arrows should I bank on for Sauron and Morgoth?
Any other suggestions before this encounter? After this run, I’ll probably switch over to the new version of Angband (tried it a bit… man it feels different).
