First rogue past level 10 I think

[Petoften]

I was about to kill a pretty nasty dark elven sorcerer that summoned when he summoned a dreadmaster.

It gives over 11k experience.

I assume that's a bad thing, one of these 'one shotters'.

[Petoften]

Never had a telepathy item before this game, now I have it on weapon and an amulet of ESP.

How do you recharge a wand when you have multiples - like '3 wands with 19 charges' as they get lower?

You're supposed to charge one only when it's low, right? Should you drop one at a time and look for a low one?

I'm not sure how the code works, but it wait till the stack is at zero and than recharge.

Dreadmaster can be dangerous.

Found a spellbook of resistances but the only one that looks a little useful is 50 armor.

But won't that leave two of the three without charges?

I didn't find out about dreadmaster - teleport other.

The resistance spells are all very useful, because they stack with resistances from equipment, reducing basic breath attacks to 1/9.

The charges are somehow shared between all devices. Just wait until they go to zero and recharge again. At least you don't loose any charges if the item is destroyed at zero.

Interesting - the game isn't clear what stacks.

[Pete Mack]

Resist fire e.g. reduces max fire breath damage from 1600HP to 533. Add a second resistance and it becomes 177. Poison and acid max damage are 1/2 that (for acid, this assumes you have non-zero armor in all slots.)

It is a huge deal. Monsters like Smaug become a pushover.

[Mondkalb]

In general: Resistance (basic 4 + poison) from equipment + resistance from spell or potion stacks and reduces related damage further.

[Petoften]

Does stacking work with armor also, and is the limit to stacking 2, or more?

[Mondkalb]

One (permanent) resistance from any equipment (armor, weapon, or jewelry) stacks with one (temporary) resistance from either potion, activation, or scroll.

[Pete Mack]

... or mushroom. Mushrooms of emergency can be pretty useful for a warrior with rChaos (or even without it.)

It's strange, I found a 'ring of slaying' and was comparing it with the ring of the mouse and a ring of damage.

When I replace the ring of the mouse, my weapon with dragon slaying goes up from 54 to 69, but against dragons goes down from 115 to 112.

Bow damage doesn't change. So I'm going to drop it but weirs the different affect on dragons.
