Aeluin isn't intended as smith, just with smithing to make arrows. But I have been very unlucky with both arrows and forges. The one forge I found was far too crowded to handle with the few arrows that I have left.

You have enough stealth to be comfortable at any depth, so I wouldn't worry too much, you can always go into an avoidance mode for a while (though you have a decent stock of arrows now).

Not sure if you have a plan for the throne room, but I'd consider getting Lorien. I'm not too eager to fight there on stealth based chars after the vanish nerf, but maybe you aren't as big of a coward as I am.

It is my first non-smithing character poised to go to the throne room (and I never got so deep before the vanish changes), so I am grateful for advice. I am confident I can manage with about 30 archery skill, sufficient poisoned arrows and a good bow, song of sharpness / slaying and enough stealth (I would love to find a few stealth bonus items), and for safety reasons a staff of warding to keep non uniques away. Not sure whether to take out Morgoth or to snipe his followers first, likely I will try the second approach this time. If I realize I can't kill Morgoth I will thin out his followers anyway to be more comfortable when retrieving a Silmaril. I felt Vanish works fine, although my stealth score was more like 30 when I made this observation. (http://angband.oook.cz/ladder-show.php?id=14336)

I always thought Lorien is more suitable for non-stealth builds or song specialists. I simply don't see me getting enough song to benefit from it without smithing song artifacts. (EnemyWill + 5 + StealthMalus = 20+ Song requirement?)

On 17.5.2013 12:36 clouded wrote:
20 is the number I go for, but remember that a potion of grace will give you +3 song, with 4 grace you'd need 13 song, which isn't *too* unreasonable, there is quite a bit of XP to be had as you explore the throne room too.

I think there is possibility for an archer-assassin playstyle with Lorien, setting monster's evasion to -5 is quite big, if you are lucky enough to find Dailir you could get some enormous damage.

On 17.5.2013 17:42 taptap wrote:
I never found Dailir when playing an archer, but I guess you are right that for the "sniper"-build Silence/Lorien looks like the obvious choice. And with high enough stealth, I can probably disregard the stealth-malus because the enemies won't recognize me even with it.

800 foot update. I got a new lamp, some more arrows a damage ring and the gloves of Rumil in the meantime.

Update: After clearing most of the cat fortress.

Too much on offer here... Curufin, Grace+1 or Will+3? Blessed Realms or Con+1? ... Luxury problems I never had. Last time a char entered the cat fortress it was killed very rapidly - w/ the help of warding it went well this time.

My picks:
Curufin is great, because of *Listen*
Will +3 is more preferable because this helps protect against stat draining Vampire lords
I'd take Con +1 anyday...I am never fond of low HP.

There was one wolf unique (Gorthaur?) in the throne room that recognized me in an inconvenient moment, barely escaped with closed door, song of silence. Had to run twice from Morgoth, too, while I was still sniping. Then I took on Morgoth singing sharpness. Phhh.
