Polearm-only char (well, after finding a spear at 100'). No particularly notable finds, but going well anyway.

Just stumbled across Draugluin in a vault at 800' and not sure exactly what my best course of action is... maybe I could kill him, but it would probably cost a lot of consumables... but also running away to stairs won't be particularly easy in this situation.

On 21.1.2014 22:43 elliptic wrote:
Draugluin was much easier than expected, mainly because of how good ZoC is against erratic movement. Nearly died several times clearing cat fortress on my first time to 950', and then the loot was awful... but I've rebuilt my consumable collection since then.

Still no decent polearms found... branded glaives seem extremely rare. I'm almost out of time before throne room, and I just ran out of _treasures charges. The current level has a 7.5lb vampiric glaive, but I'm not sure it is worth getting.

I'm not currently liking my Morgy-killing chances, but I imagine winning without killing Morgy shouldn't be that annoying if I save a decent number of _revelations charges and some xp for Exchange Places.

I found Saithnar and decided that it is secretly a polearm.

Morgoth fight took a while since he was being quite annoying with earthquakes and my damage output wasn't that amazing (not enough strength to use Saithnar optimally), but I entered the fight with 26 potions of healing, 25 potions of quickness, etc, so I just kept at it until he eventually fell.

On 22.1.2014 13:04 half wrote:
That is an insane number of potions. How did you achieve that after I'd reduced them so much in 1.2.0? The game is definitely not balanced if you can get that many. Even just you 7 herbs of healing should be enough for the endgame, but to also have 15 potions of miruvor and 19 of healing is crazy.

@half This may explain it:

28,419 950 ft Fell through a crumbling stair

I guess elliptic sees more floors than other players.

On 22.1.2014 18:41 elliptic wrote:
half: I wondered that too, but debo said that you just reduced the stat gain potion frequency, not miruvor/healing/quickness? I did get quite a few stat gain potions too, but I spent quite a while on 950' accumulating them with revelations and/or treasures this game (and without needing to use that many).

taptap: Huh? I fail to see anything unusual about that message.

On 22.1.2014 18:56 half wrote:
That could be right. I don't recall which ones I changed. That is far too much healing though!

I think taptap is suggesting that you visited a lot of floors using a staff of treasures in quick succession so you fell through a crumbling stair (our anti-stair-scumming measure).

On 22.1.2014 19:06 elliptic wrote:
If you didn't reduce miruvor/healing/quickness while reducing the others then it might actually have increased their frequency I guess? I don't know how these changes work in Sil.

Right, though visiting new floors quickly enough to trigger the crumbling stairs isn't actually an effective way of scumming potions (since you want to go and actually pick up the potions). Those were the only crumbling stairs I got in 10k turns after reaching 950', and they were actually caused by pressing < several times in a row with my last _treasures charges in a last vain hope to find an artifact polearm to use instead of Saithnar.

On 22.1.2014 23:06 taptap wrote:
I indeed wanted to suggest that elliptic and other efficient players repeat 900 950ft more often than other less efficient players.

I am always amazed how many chars elliptic brings home safely seemingly without breaking sweat very often. Personally I am losing most of my Edain attempts quite early in 1.2 (charging orc warriors, flanking easterlings ...), it is much harder.



On 22.1.2014 23:32 elliptic wrote:
I was actually pretty surprised myself at how well early game went on this char... plain spears are much better than I thought. There were definitely some pretty close moments with orcs and easterlings though, which could easily have killed me with a bit worse luck.

In general though I feel like Edain aren't that terrible if you are playing a melee/evasion character with no tricky business... their main drawback then is that you have 3 con rather than 5, which means that you have to run away earlier and have to avoid fights altogether with more monsters, but doesn't hurt you in fights where you aren't really taking damage. An Edain at full HP isn't really in worse shape than an injured Noldor at the same HP.
