Hydras needed some adjustment ... So far, I've given them extra starting AC and added amulets of resist fire/cold/lightning. Also, I moved the extra equipment slots up so that 5 headed hydras get 3 helms/amulets, 7 headed get 5 and 9 or 11 headed get all 5 slots.

Rampant town teleportation finally paid off with a levitation cloak (resist confusion, chaos shards). There goes my gold, but well worth it, IMO. Now I can access some of the other dungeons that would otherwise be inaccessible, such as the Lonely Mountain, the Mountain or the Giant's Hall.

Chris...are elemental resistances working properly? It seems that at 66% damage resist, a great storm wyrm shouldn't be doing ~300 damage/breath to me.

That sounds right ... Lightning breath is 1/3 of hp for a max of 900. 66% resistance means you take 300 ... but beware that resistance is a bit random and the numbers displayed are mean values. So you can take a bit more and should always be ready for that.

Elemental breathers (Great Wyrm of Many Colours, Tiamat, Norsa) deserve much more respect these days. It used to be you could shut down their breaths to about 180 with double resistance but now you can't really get much below 300.

I was descending for the Forest con boost, when I stumbled unto a fairly major vault: Call it a lesser checkerboard vault. Objects are guaranteed excellent, but its supposed to have the alternating wall, monster, wall, monster windy pattern. Except this is the forest, so all those walls were trees. Ick!

Detect monsters and it looks doable. I'm normally at L37 so I can handle some out of depth baddies at L25, except for that Greater Basilisk I somehow missed. Fortunately, my teleport other worked before it annihilated me with uber breaths. And one of the horsey uniques and a durahan. But otherwise, I cleared the rest and scored a Crown of Lordliness! Also, a few artifacts, but nothing I could use other than the Stone of Lore replacement. I'll take it, as my phial replacement was lamo to the extreme! And now, I have *three* double resist slots as a hydra!! Talk about power!

Armor rust is absolutely killing me, though. I can't really afford to keep up the shine, but don't want to ignore my rust as I am a melee class. For example, after taking down Ubbo, it cost 54k for me to re-enchant my gear. That money could be well spent somewhere else (like when the BM stocks a non-rusting crown of might, for example). I would give anything to be Hephaestus right now.

Get *four* helmet and amulet slots.

The funny thing is, I do proofread before posting, but proofreading does not seem to work if you do it immediately after writing! Sigh ...

A couple rand-art helms to get me started. Those Camelot Knights are very tough and I burned Speed and Healing a plenty for their excellent drops. The first knight I killed dropped "Hammerhand" with reflection, but the rest of the drops were lame. And the reflection, while probably saving my life, was not nearly enough to keep the knight beat down off me. Even with AC100, reflection and +17 speed, those guys are tough. I notice they are ranked as L28 and L29 monsters for some. More likely, they are L38. Definitely tougher than Kavlax as a reference point. Certainly, they are much more deadly. Kavlax is slower, and won't summon 5+ monsters just as deadly as he is. Kavlax won't blind you, nor inflict 100+hp draining gashes. He did breathe nexus which was annoying, but non-scrambling.

Later, I found "Holhenneth" from some nobody in The Lonely Mountain. That leaves "Thranduil", "Thengel" and "Sam" as early helm hopefuls. Getting excellent crowns is more like a DL45 or even DL50 task, so not to be counted on. I did a small amount of Dragon's Lair scumming, enough to read my acquirement and do a bit of tentative exploration. Enough to recognize my folly. And now, the lair remains a recall point for me to accidentally return to. Funny, it looks just like The Lonely Mountain so I didn't recognize my mistake right away. I even figured that Great Venom Wyrm was just a Tanuki, but the nearby Bile Wyrm alerted me to my folly.

I'm about to lose my poison resistance (at CL37). Hopefully, I can get an amulet of resistance or a rand-art in time. Otherwise, that will be a tough resistance to cover, and as necessary as fire resistance, I am afraid.

I underwent a freakish metamorphosis, courtesy of a weird fume, and despite my 7-headed poison resistance. This swapped my 11 Int with my 18/72 con, and my hp immediately plummeted from ~620 to about ~440. Fortunately, I could still fight, so I've been crawling my way back. Evolving a couple more heads really helped, as did 2 !Con and 1 !Augmentation, but I fear I have already completed all the dungeons that I can. Smaug? Maybe, but remember I only hit for 225 damage against him while he breathes for ... well, 2 breaths and I'm dead. So I fear that is too risky. Still, I've crawled back to 562hp so am optimistic.

Indeed! I just scored both resistance and telepathy amulets. At this depth, both are rather nice finds :)

OK, its clear I simply need to play without poison resistance. A bit of time in the Dragon's Lair and I finally exceed 700hp, so I can suck up a single breath now. I found "Sam" and "Thengel" from a blue dragon nest. Heck, I even killed the Storm Wyrm lord.

Now, I would do the Cloning Pits except that recently, Gachapin nearly killed me. That's one Gachapin, and yes, he has a 330hp poison breath. That mutating bastard ... So, I continue to wait. Perhaps eventually I'll score a lucky resistance amulet? I've found a bunch of resist poison on body armor, but that is of no use to me. Heck, I've even found Multi-hued Dragon Scale Mail!

The RNG taunts me ...

Bubble Vault in the Lair! Whoa ... and I cleared it. Except for Dworkin and Nidhogg, but I burned a ?MassGenocide I found along the way. I'm OK with that :)

Artifacts up to 43 and I'm starting to find those magic stones that replace rather nicely. No amulets yet, but its just a matter of time. And no poison resist? Still? C'mon!

I quickly scored the Amulet of Seeking with poison resistance at last. Finally!

And look, "Amber" too! Now, I really just need some disenchantment resistance and some decent amulets of damage and I will be good to go.

I think Hydras are OK now ... I won't push just yet since I have an idea for another monster race: The Leprechaun!

Picked this guy back up after a long hiatus. I was going to have to abandon him since he had 0 fame after 79 uniques, 13 quests and 5 dungeon masters. Normally, that would be nearly 60 fame. So rather than start over, I cheated and added 50 fame. Otherwise, it would have been too tedious! I'm tempted to start a new one anyway with stand-arts since one can count on Hammerhand, Boromir and the Hell-Harness for damage boosts. That's +25 (and perhaps Stone Mask?) which really means something when you get 11 attacks. And this guy is almost out of stand-art amulets and *none* of them gave combat bonuses :(

Anyway, the first reforge did give some combat bonuses on my amulet of telepathy (Yay!), but the next 2 did not (Boo!). And while my speed and resists are good enough for end game, my damage output is a bit low without the fire slay. So perhaps I'll wait for even more fame and try my luck with some magic device mastery. I really need some help to use staves of healing anyway.

I'm not sure I'll keep playing this guy though ... I really just wanted a quick start after my Khorne servant got blasted (saddness) and I feel as though hydras either need some lovin' or some serious play testin'!
