Started playing Angband a week ago, trying out this character dump thingy...

Hm, so could someone confirm that I'm doing more damage with the morning star (2 blows / turn) than with the dagger (4 blows), at least against non-acid resistant monsters?

Eh, ok, I think that I correctly understand how brands work now. If I'm not wrong, I'm doing 4*(2.5 + 15) = 70 per turn with the dagger, and 2*(7 + 14) = 42 with the MS, so the dagger looks like a clear winner...

So, as far as I can tell I'm doing ok, with the basic resistances covered, FA and a SI swap ring. Now I'm supposed to stay around 1800 for a while to get my stats up, right? I really wouldn't mind getting some more int, so as to be able to use -to and _speed...

You are playing version 3.0.9b (instead of the most recent 3.1.2). Recent changes to Angband have discouraged the whole philosophy of 'hang around at 1600 - 1800 feet until I've maxed out my stats'. But in 3.0.9b, there was some merit to waiting for stat gain. Especially if you could boost your constitution. The drawback is that a player can start getting pretty bored. Your character will become far too powerful compared to the monsters at those levels, with the danger that once you start descending again, you won't be mentally alert for real opposition.

This is why many players advocate that you continue to descend. The idea is: the stuff you need is abundant... if only you go deep enough. To do this, you will need lots of detection (detect evil, detect objects, detect doors/stairs, magic mapping, and if you luck out, telepathy). You will also want escapes (destruction, teleport level, deep descent, teleport other, teleport, banishment). And never stray too far from the closest stairs.

My current character (a half-orc warrior) didn't find speed until about 3700'. He has still yet to find rBlind, and he's been hanging around 4900' for awhile now.

But back to your question: if you would feel more secure waiting to gain stats, then that's what I'd do. You'll probably die eventually (we all do), but in the process, you should learn more about the deeper monsters and how to handle them.

On 8.6.2010 00:25 TeKRunneR wrote:
Hey, thanks for the advice! I don't feel like 1800' is too easy at for now, still have to run away from a bunch of stuff (including pretty much all the uniques), and I really want to be able to use that -to (and maybe that _speed too), so I'm thinking I'll stay there for a little while.

Today was a really strange day, by the way. Things started ok, got some str, wis, int and chr gain. Then I found what I think was a small fault, which I managed to clear by _to'ing the ant queen away, but not before she summoned a large swarm of fire ants. I was slowly killing them when I suddenly noticed that they had burnt all but one of my WoR scrolls... and before I could drop that last one, it was burnt too...

So I guessed I had no choice but to go up by myself. Fortunately, I had 2 potions of enlightenment (one of which let me find and clear some sort of small pit with 2 dragons, a unique, a mindflayer and a couple of {excellent} on the floor). I also found a -door very fast, which is the only reason I didn't go crazy doing this.

However, I very stupidly read a non-ID'd scroll at around 1500', thinking it couldn't hurt me. And that's how I turned my whip of extra attacks (+7,+9) (+2) into a broken whip (-7,-6) {cursed}... I wasn't sure I'd make it back to the surface like this, but very fortunately at 1450' I found another un-ID'd scroll, which I read... and uncursed the whip! So I took it off, equipped a dagger with some decent plusses that I had found before running out of ID, and slowly made my way back up.

Then, at 350', I find a ?WoR. Heh. Anyway, I go to ID the loot I've been carrying from the vault and the small pit (_perception had run out), and first thing I get... a Whip of Gondolin (1d3) (+15,+15).

Man, I feel quite lucky to have made it out of the mess I put myself into, with an even better weapon to boot. Quite an interesting experience.

Oh, and I also brought back two rings, an STR+3, and a CON+3. Which one is best, harder hitting or more HP?

On 8.6.2010 05:47 fizzix wrote:
Strength is better if it gives you an extra blow (it won't with the whip) Otherwise, might as well stick on the Con ring. It won't give you much HP, but it'll give you some. =Dex is probably what you most want now, that might give you an extra blow.

Be on the lookout for =rpois, you'll want to wear that as soon as you find one, although I think it's not native until 2000'

Highlights of the day were:
- some stat potions here and there
- a few uniques killed
- finally found some decent ammo, so made myself a +9,+9 crossbow
- found Anduril, and at the very end of the day a DEX+4 ring, which seems to have upped my damage quite a bit
- also found a -detection, which I guess I'll use and abuse to start going deeper.

I have a question also: does the max selling price of a shop ever change? Almost all the {excellent} I got today were melee weapons (I could really have used a helmet btw), and that weaponsmith bastard only buys up to 5k, so I've been tried to keep in my home as many of the weapons hitting the cap as possible, but I'm running out of space...

Uh, RoS+4 for 700k in the BM? How am I supposed to afford that? D:

In 3.1.x the speed ring prices are about 1/20 of what you're seeing in your game.

Eh. Go down the stairs to 2950', use rod of illumination, the time hound breathes, the time hound breathes, [...], you die. Too bad, I felt I was starting to get the hang out of that being fairly deep thing. 2 rods of detection and 540 HP admittedly helped.

Oh well, time to enjoy the nifty features of 3.1.2?
