I've been travelling for several weeks. During that time, legions of my would-be heroes have met their ends. As of posting, this mauler is still alive and quite fun! I'm not really sure where I should go next.

Your damage is atrocious :( I forgot how hard it is to find good weapons for maulers. I'm impressed you could kill Azog with this, although I guess having a billion HP and the ability to throw rocks helps.

I would probably go to Angband and do the DL6 and DL12 quests just in case something useful drops. Icky Cave could be a good next stop after that, you have rAcid now.

Cool, I'll give that a shot. I've been maxing Str and Con and largely ignoring Dex b/c my intuition is that maulers, with their capped and often singleton blows do not use the dexterity as much.

To fight Azog, I used the Critical Blow ability every round, Splatter to take out his escort, and Block to reduce some of his dps. It still cost me something like 15 !CCW and 10 !Phase.

I'm too busy working on my latest Possessor, Hugo$oul 1036.

Anyhow:
For Maulers, you'd want the heaviest weapons in sight. The heavier, the better.

Hah I spotted your ladder dump and read over it. I almost posted in H$1036 "oh there you are" but decided against it. Yes, this flail is the heaviest I've found yet.

It's kinda out-of-character, but I might honestly consider using ranged combat as your main until you find something truly maul-tastic. Not sure how often you're throwing rocks or shooting bolts, but your bolts already outdamage your swing!

Also if you can't find anything to buy, remember that you can use the fighter/barbarian shops to enchant-up your weapons and armor. I'm not sure how much +dam actually helps maulers, but extra AC helps everyone!

Good point. On previous characters I have enchanted shooter/arrows, but I hadn't thought to buff my doomed mauler's AC.

The lvl 6 Angand quest monster was Grishnack, and he dropped an amulet of the elements with all 4 base elements (not poison), which might free me up down the line, though I don't think that I can use it at the moment.

Just to crash your bubble about Dex.... You need that stuff if you want to max out blows... Your 9 dex is... suicidal. Don't expect 2 blows any time soon. With a mauler I start stat-rolling with 17str/17dex/14con.

Just check, with 17/17 str/dex as Cyclops Mauler (so you start with 18/100/13) you have 1.31 blows. I don't know if you needed a lot of work to get to clvl 26, but you really might want to consider starting over. Maybe keep this guy alive and make a new savefile, just to check the difference.

Low Dex is indeed an issue, but many of the early Mauler talents were designed before the game had fractional blows. At that time, it was rather normal to wait until CL25 for a second blow even with buffing Dex.

Stunning Blow, Critical Blow, Knockout Blow and (at CL30) Crushing Blow all restrict you to just a single blow. So I think this character will have much more incentive to use these talents. Crushing Blow in particular is quite good.

So don't despair, I think you can survive stat gain just fine with a bit of patience. Enchant your flail (you can do +10, +10 now, I think) or, better yet, by a lance (30 lbs). Keep an eye on the BM for a Heavy Lance. With an enchanted weapon and Critical Blow you will be doing damage just fine even with just 1 attack.

As for how Mauler attacks work, they get a reduced blows calculation. The formula currently is B = 1.00 + (B - 1.00) / 2 so to get 2 attacks you need to earn 3 and to get all 3 attacks you need to earn 5 (which requires Dex over 18/100, perhaps even higher).

AUGH I am slain! I was playing far too tiredly and late at night, and I fell in the Icky Caves (bleh) to some hydras and vortices.

As for my crappy dexterity, it was damaged when I made my dump, plus I hard-roll my characters, since I figure they're doomed either way, but a hard-rolled win will be extra satisfying.
