Trying the whole high-protection thing after being inspired by elliptic. Hope to turn this one into a lance specialist, as I've never been able to make it work.
High protection is interesting. The best thing it gives you, IMO, is flexibility. You can float huge XP pools and still survive. When I've tried to pool more than 1500xp-ish before 500' on other builds, I pretty much always died. With this build, I can bank huge XP in the hopes that I find a forge, and dump it all into other places if I'm in a bad situation. I've already done that once at 300' to get Heavy Armor Use when surrounded by trolls. Damned regeneration is a pain when you're not stabbing them in the kidneys :)

You might also want a few abilities that go well with Blocking, such as Focused Attack, Zone of Control, or (as you mentioned) Polearm Mastery. These allow you to take advantage of rounds spent passing.

@Patashu: Definitely :)
@half: Focused attack is definitely in the works.
I am (predictably) running into trouble around 500'. I was surrounded by 20+ orcs, trolls, and other baddies with 4.2k XP in the bank, which I finally dumped into hardiness. I still couldn't kill them fast enough though, so I caved and put a few points into song w/ Elbereth. That did the trick, although it still took forever. I'm burning turns like there's no tomorrow.
I was able to survive quite easily, though. It's almost ridiculous how much of a difference this playstyle makes re: survivability. I passed about 6 turns to quaffing consumables with 9 bad guys surrounding me, and I took 5 points of cumulative damage :)

Oh, and if I'd found a couple of 3+-use forges before 500', this game would have been MUCH different :(

Yes, there is a balance to be struck between defence and offence. Even if you theoretically do better in each combat with more defence (say, halving the amount of damage you take vs increasing your damage dealt by 10%), you still need to keep in mind that time is a resource.
Both Prot and Evasion have increasing marginal returns in many cases, but they each only cover a subset of things you need to deal with. (Also, while points of Prot have increasing returns, the items that grant it have decreasing returns -- e.g. long corslets are the least good tradeoff but offer the most prot).

If I were you, I'd put a whole lot of points into melee. I think you have enough evasion for the whole game, given your desire to try out protection.
On 6.7.2012 12:48 debo wrote:
Yup, I didn't plan on using more evasion. +9 is what you need for Heavy Armor Use.
I just stumbled down a bad set of stairs and was pretty much immediately surrounded by 6 wargs, Ulfang + cronies, and a Sulrauko. It's actually the latter that is giving me the biggest headache, as even with !True Sight I can't get rid of it, and it keeps blocking my escapes :)
If I die here (most likely out of boredom), I think I might try again, dashing up the Will tree instead of the Evasion tree. Hardiness is cheaper than heavy armor use, I haven't found blocking to be super effective on its own, and crit resistance does much more good than just raw protection. High will also helps blanket a lot of nasty effects that I'd otherwise want resists etc for.
I have 11 points in melee right now, and with a light weapon and charge, I'm still having an impossible time actually killing things. I'm used to being able to pick my fights with stealth+assassination. Then again, I'm also used to insta-dying if I wake up the wrong set of monsters, so this is a lot of fun :)

I'd forgotten about the requirement for Heavy Armour Use. Many people stop at Sprinting (7) so I was getting confused.

Ulfang and a crew of baddies challenged me to a slap fight. I couldn't hurt them, and they couldn't hurt me. Immensely frustrating, so much so that my darling Lise offed herself. Orcrist and two 3-forges on that floor :|
So I started over again, this time with more Dex. I almost reset when I found only a 3-forge at 100', but pressed on, and holy cow! I've never had a game throw so much good stuff at me! Thank you momma RNG, I'm taking this one to the bank.
I barked up the Will tree before Evasion this time. Now that I have it, it's time to decide whether to focus on Smithing (for artifice) or Evasion (for Heavy Armor use). First, though, I want 10pts in melee. One more to go.
Question -- does True Sight make Sulrauko 100% revealed? Or do I need high perception to see them?

Another question: Does the trumpet of terror hit with AOE, or is it a single-target effect?

Hmm, that happened a few times in development but we took some steps to reduce it. I'd like to think a bit more about what happened there -- you don't still have the character sheet, do you? Did you have a big two-handed weapon you could have tried switching to?
True Sight gives you +10 to your Perception roll to see Sulraukar and other "invisible" monsters.
Trumpet of Terror works as a ray, I believe: it will hit multiple targets, but only in a straight line.

No savefile left -- I overwrote it. Same with the dump :(
I had a greatsword but couldn't hit anything with it. Then an orc captain tore my weapon away and it landed on some other square I couldn't get to. I was stuck scrapping with my longsword.
It was my fault -- I didn't have high enough melee for that depth. I was surrounded by wargs, Easterling warriors, trolls, and a sulrauko, all of which are hard to hit (except for trolls, who are hard to kill b/c of regen.) If I hadn't been so focused on protection, I would have just died :)

This character is making me nervous! Just found Narsil and two 3-use forges on this floor, and it's only half-explored.
Between the great equipment and the higher emphasis on melee, killing things is much easier this time around. However, I don't know how well I would have survived with 34HP if I hadn't been lucky enough to find so much evasion boosting equipment (shield of deflection, defender longsword and now Narsil). My evasion was terribad once I was done forging all my protection equipment on 100'. I think Wargs and Trolls would have been much more difficult.

Chugging along. Been pumping melee, but wolves are still hard to hit. Bastards. Might take power soon, and poison resistance is looking good too.

Really guys, couldn't Narsil have at least been +1 to hit? :) Seems so sad for an artifact to have a vanilla +0...
On 11.7.2012 22:31 Scatha wrote:
Our general aim for artefacts is that they generally be about as good, or just a little bit better than, the best non-artefact items you can find, but in a direction that makes them feel more special. Narsil gives so much awesome non-attack-based stuff that it doesn't have room for a really strong attack too.
Actually we realised we'd exceeded this a bit, so a lot of the artefact swords will be toned back a little in 1.1. :)
You'll be glad to know that wolves generally, and Wargs in particular will be getting a bit easier to kill, though.

I was just joking around :) It's so rare for me to find artefact anythings that I was just getting excited haha
The few times I found Anglachel or Anduirel (or whatever they're called), I definitely thought they were overpowered. I wouldn't mind them being hit with the nerf-bat. Amrod and Dagmor were great finds for stealthy-stabbers, but not entirely game-changing. And that's pretty much my entire experience with Sil artefacts :D

YASD. Blargh. There wasn't even anything dangerous going on, I should have just quaffed a !Healing. Dumb dumb dumb. The Glaive of Gaurin and Nimphelos were sitting in vaults where all those monsters poured out of.
I could kick myself right now :)
