First rogue past level 10 I think

[Petoften]

It's nice having telepathy and regeneration.

I'm getting them now from weapon and amulet, respectively.

I have an amulet of telepathy I could use, but lose regeneration, to use a higher damage weapon; or get even lower damage with a regen weapon.

Hm.

[Petoften]

Now my HP have gone down from 260 to 244. Who knows.

[Petoften]

Back in town - staff of speed worth buying/carrying? Only a few scrolls left.

[Petoften]

Getting to be too much (dlvl 53). Same level as above, Lorgan chief of the easterlings summoned me repeatedly, phase doored to a room of vrocks that each would take a long time to kill, phase door some more and an ethereal drake attacked, finally a teleported and landed next to Harowen the black hand...

[Petoften]

Avoid! Besides his summons, he will pummel you to death! And even more to avoid: Grand Master Mystic.

I left the level.

As soon as I did, Harowen the black hand... Nearby, Ji Indur Dawndeath

There's a vault next to him with almost anything - insects, umber hulks, worms, griffons, doombats...

Even with the new bow...

[Mondkalb]

[Petoften]

Yikes. Master Mystic, tried to sneak by, in 2 turns he summoned 12 monsters.

A little later 30 are showing on the screen at once.

[Petoften]

Also found scythe 'Avavir'. Better melee damage but no telepathy of course.

[Petoften]

Just found the short bow of Amras! From 82 arrow damage to 160.

Still think I need to stay away from things like ethereal dragon though.

[Petoften]

Any idea why my melee damage dropped a lot?

I just found the sword Aeglin, but not worth keeping.

[wobbly]

Are scrolls of Protection from evil worth keeping?

I like them, others don't bother. If you aren't going to keep them read them off the ground. They'll last for a long time.

[Petoften]

The con ring raises con from 17 to 18/40, and HP from 260 to 306. Nice, but I need the STR for encumbrance and stealth.

[Pete Mack]

You very likely will want to use the CON ring later as such a fragile character. Both hobbit and ranger have bad HP. Of course, if you get 18/200 CON from other sources, that is better.

[Mondkalb]

CON rings don't affect how many HPs your char will get on leveling up. Depending on how much CON you have, it can make a huge difference in your character's total HPs though.

Amulets of trickery are great, you will eventually find one in the dungeon.
