First dump from my unofficial patch to FA. Note the dragon armour in the dump for example.

Other updates so far inlude big enhancements to artifact sets and some changes to pseudo.

That is not something I have changed. All DSMs (except Power, MH and Balance) give bonuses in dragon-form. The lower elementals all give Immunity - bronze happens to give FA. Check xtra1.c, shape_change_main for details.

Oh yes, forgot about that.

Only speed item is still dragon scale mail and I think that is a positive change.

Base resistances are bordering on the ridiculous and that is without having rBase from my armour! This will no doubt change as better kit comes along (speed rings for example!).

One of the rare times I have found a decent randart amulet.

Would really like to try out some of the new artifact sets, so hoping I can stumble across them...

I'm wondering whether "Trickery are overpowered. I can't really see a reason why you'd wear any other amulet once you'd found a decent one. This might be a side effect of it being so hard to get speed items in FA (or indeed O).

I could give them a max pval of 3 or I could give the little speed boosts to standarts that are common in V - so that the speed boost is not quite so essential. Any comments?

Biggest bugbear for me is lack of -TA and to a lesser degree _BanishEvil. I don't want to have to scum for these, but without them I can't deal with the likes of Storms of Unmagic and Gothmog that start awake - and if they are in a vault I can't even destruct them (if I had a source of that...).

I've only found one -TA all game (and no rods) and two -StMs (though thankfully I've now found the Rod of Delving). I'm tempted to add TA and StM to the list of good objects in kind_is_good in object2.c to see if that helps - any reason not to, or why that wouldn't work?

I've now got a number of artifact set items, but no luck in completing any yet...

I'd say limit the + to 3 (or even 2...).

I might keep the +5 one I have found though for now :-)

Somewhat unbelievably I found a PDSM of Resistance (+4 to speed) in a Bubble vault at DL99 this morning (I haven't touched rarities of Dragon armour either before you ask). The extra resistance meant I got a huge boost to rNexus. However I did note that I didn't have any rConf or rDis. At first I thought I must have screwed something up with the resistance ego, but no, PDSM does not cover all resists in FA (or O). Another thing I'm going to have to address...

I also had something drop a -TA so I'm hoping that I've managed to fix that issue by making them good drops.

Completed two artifact sets. The first has aggravation through Gurthang, but the second is the Holy Fire set made up of Firestar (now 2d9) and Carlammas. Completing the set adds a few bonuses but most notably makes Firestar *slay evil* which suddenly makes it a potential endgame weapon.

Unfortunately not having another means to protect my stats, I had to ditch my PDSM for the final fight for my Robe of Permanance.

The final fight was *dull*. Morgoth only managed to break one RoP whilst I hacked away at him, doing around 142 dam/blow (according to 'I' - though I doubt this also includes bonuses for Mana Burn) when fully buffed.

I don't think a 2d9 *Slay Evil* weapon is unbalancing because you can potentially find 2d14 Battle Axes of *Slay Evil*, so I don't want to tone that down.

I was certainly lucky with Morgoth failing to break the RoPs (in the past I have quickly gone through these). Morgoth being slower in recent versions of FA will also have had an effect. It feels like there is also a preference for most monsters to melee when they are adjacent (though I can't see anything to that effect in the code so it probably isn't true) which also helped me as he spent more time trying to break runes when it would have been better for him to have summoned on me or mana stormed etc. I may again have just got lucky with the 1-in-3 rolls for ranged attacks.

I think I need to make it more likely still for Morgoth to break runes and maybe that will be enough. Thoughts anyone?

I have made a lot of changes to randart generation since I started this game, so I look forward to seeing how that plays out in future games. At some point it would also be nice if someone wanted to test some of my changes to see if they are worth implementing for real...
