Charge was sort of a weird decision -- what prompted you to take it?
I'd get Disguise ASAP if you're using stealth to avoid dangerous situations (and with Assassination, you don't really want to be waking up monsters.)
On 26.9.2012 23:01 Thraalbeast wrote: Thanks. Was not sure about how effective disguise actually is.
More or less always use it but in this game i did new choices. Did not see a huge difference in stealth results, but I play more careful than normally too
I thought charge was low cost and would be good when already seen. I am fast so i should be able to back out and then charge. I thought.
Parry is expensive now, maybe later I thought.
On 26.9.2012 23:14 HugoTheGreat2011 wrote: In Sil v1.1, you need heavier weapons like a ~12lb Greatsword to take full advantage of Charge. Its damage is calculated as if you had +3 more STR AND DEX. If you have spare points, put 2 on Smithing, get Weaponmastery, and make the heaviest Greatsword possible.
I wouldn't underestimate Disguise. It makes you less noticed by monsters. And it is the prerequisite for Vanish, which does justice when your Stealth is >20.

Spent 1000 xp on smithing, planning to make a feanorian lamp if my skill is high enough. Replacement head gear is almost as good.
Now getting second thoughts, but that is a bit late. Although I may still keep the mithril helm of course.
Facing a Silent Watcher in the next room. I guess I should stay way clear of it. I assume arrows is not going to be enough to kill it, tried a bunch from far away with no visible results.
On 2.10.2012 22:15 Thraalbeast wrote: Hmm, I see I did forget that I never chose Parry. Wish I had, that was sound advice. Instead I've spent xp on lore and smithing which will not help me survive short term. Useful in the long run but maybe a bit premature. Fought two Sulraukos and although it went well, I see I need more Melee.
On 3.10.2012 00:06 HugoTheGreat2011 wrote: Steer clear from the Silent Watchers, *please*!! Fooling around with them is recipe for disaster. You'll need very high Will + a high dice weapon to take them out.

On 3.10.2012 18:49 Thraalbeast wrote: Now I know why the door was so hard to open and I'm facing the first and least of the Balrogs!
He disarmed me easily but I've managed to pick up Glamdring and flee to a downstair. Do I want to fight? I think not. Melee is rather low and with no good fire resist it seems like suicide.
Also wondering about inventory, it is getting full. ?Thunder and ?Blasting seems useful, how about ?Terror and _slumber?
On 3.10.2012 20:31 half wrote: Blasting is excellent. For starters, it means you can drop your shovel. It can also be aimed up and down (as it says on its description). Try them out and see what happens. These can be very useful.
On 3.10.2012 21:54 Thraalbeast wrote: Further down. Another Balrog on the loose here and now "The deathblade notices you"... cool!
Being forced to go deeper and deeper although I feel very inadquite for the task is ... great! I'd prefer to clear each level until I felt sure I'd cope with what is on the next, but here there is no such safe way. I'm being forced to sneak, hide, vanish (finally got it!) and stab in the dark. Love it! Although I don't expect to get much further. I've wasted much time as well as xp and have weak skills for the depth, but the kit is looking good although lacking very important fire resist
On 3.10.2012 22:54 debo wrote: You're not doing badly. This is the hardest stage of the game for me with stealthy characters, tbh. The only problem your character is suffering from is a bit of an identity crisis -- your points are all over the place -- but as you play a few more times, you'll learn what you can live without, and what is good to focus on!
It's pretty close to impossible to survive long the first few times you go past 600', since there are so many new things waiting to kill you :) Lore-master does help with this, though.
As half said -- definitely try the trumpet of blasting, especially in the '>' direction...
On 4.10.2012 02:46 HugoTheGreat2011 wrote: Vanish, Exchange Places, and Lore-Master are good choices. To make Vanish do its true magic, you'd need >20 Stealth.
At this point, I would increase both Melee and Evasion as high as possible. Monsters from here on (650' onwards) can get nasty, namely Cat warriors, Keremraukar, Ururaukar, Troll Guards, and Greater Werewolves.
It's a good thing you have Exchange Places because it can help you get out of dire situations.
On 4.10.2012 02:48 HugoTheGreat2011 wrote: Forgot to mention that Crowd Fighting and Keen Senses are good too. If you have trouble with Gwathraukar and other darkness monsters, consider getting Inner Light.

On 7.10.2012 16:27 Thraalbeast wrote: _Revelations, _Treasure and 2x _Charging made life easier. But I need to clear inventory. Had to drop 2 !oil to pickup the _Treasure. I also dropped the ?Terror to pickup a !Dex.
- How useful is "Regeneration?
- Do I need oil or is light common below here?
Also, I'd like Stealth > 20, but eventually more Melee and Evasion too. Cat warriors, Cave trolls and Ringrauko fall easily right now and I don't get much hurt. Balrogs are out of the question though. Would you work on improving stealth or melee/evasion?
On 7.10.2012 20:42 HugoTheGreat2011 wrote: Since your Stealth is already up there, I'd start boosting that Stealth to 11, and then get the DEX point. After that, your Stealth would 19 which is decent. After that, try to get Armorsmith, and make a light Soft Leather Armor, as a swappable, if possible. Using the light armor will also decrease the Stealth (and Melee & Evasion) penalties, helping the Stealth go high as 20-21 easily.
On 7.10.2012 20:45 HugoTheGreat2011 wrote: Note that Boots are lighter than Greaves. If you encounter any boots that have lower protection or have Free Action, put these on instead.
Remember: Lighter equipment = less Stealth penalty

Regarding oil, I'm not sure about the frequency of those.
On 7.10.2012 20:51 HugoTheGreat2011 wrote: Whoops, I looked at your stats wrong, your Stealth is still only 10. (I mis-read the Stealth as 15). At this time, I would focus on Melee and Evasion first, and increase the Stealth later. Just remember that lighter armor still means less stealth penalty.
On 9.10.2012 19:08 Thraalbeast wrote: Ideal development for me as a noob at this depth, I was lucky to find a lot of _ and have been able to survive level 750 four times. Lore mastery and _'s => each time with the level from start fully mapped, all treasure found and all monsters fully identified. Had to fight some bad guys, but could stay way clear of the really bad ones.
I realize saving stuff for later is good, but I need to learn so this is what I do. Great game!

Need a break.

The Mattock will help you dig your way when Morgoth causes Earthquakes in the Throne Room.
On 11.10.2012 19:27 Thraalbeast wrote: First time in the game I was not scared. Two minutes later - RIP. After easily killing the ruby serpent I decided to take a swing at a Spider of Gorgoroth. Triple bad decision, 1) it was sleeping, 2) didnt have to, 3) did not swap to rPoison armour and/or ring first.
So just like in angband, careless = dead. Figures.
+++ But I'm happy I made it so far. Learned loads and loads about the game. Also I really really enjoy playing it. Thanks for all help!
P.S. Lore Mastery is definitely to recommend if you don't know all monsters yet.
