I've never played a Blackguard, so I don't know if I'm doing it right. I get the feeling I'm missing something (on the order of me missing that Fox Form gives extra blows) because so far the character seems to only have drawbacks, not advantages. But so far at least I've gotten off to respectable, if typically slow, start. I am kinda surprised at how many names are on the ladder already.

20288 DL23 CL26 : Plodding along. Got kinda stalled trying to find a FA item. I'm reasonably certain the gloves I just picked up are FA, but I haven't confirmed that yet. And Hithlomir is a nice upgrade. Next stop is DL30/stat-gain.

28153 CL29 DL31 Not much happening since the previous update, just gradually improving the equipment and looking for stat potions. I feel kinda weird wielding the Str rings, but I need the carrying capacity, and they give me two blows with the mace. I'd like to switch to the extra-blows Main-Gauche, but I need a better source of see invisible before I do that.

35979 DL30's CL31 Bouncing back and forth between levels in the low 30's. Equipment and stats slowly improving.

40553 DL35 CL34 The TO wands are a welcome addition, as are the Con ring and the Lantern of True Sight. Don't feel ready to crack the DL40 barrier yet, but will probably go down to the bottom of the DL30's.

56199 DL46 CL37 Starting to move deeper. I still feel like I have no idea how to play a Blackguard, but I've got speed 8, poison protection, 650 HP, and good stats, so it's time to descend whether I like it or not. Not sure how far I'm going to go down.

I've been experimenting with the spells in the 2nd book . Thirst for Blood is interesting and powerful, but totally antithetical to my personal play style - the side effects are too great and too unpredictable. Throw Monster is pretty good. Piercing Shot is ok I guess, but needs to be continually re-cast, and has a relatively high mana cost. Haven't gotten to Forceful Blow yet.

On 16.1.2020 21:38 bron wrote:
57716 DL53 CL37 I'm geared up for max speed, so the resist holes are troubling. But the high HP should let me survive at least one turn if I get surprised. This is about as deep as I'm currently willing to go until my kit improves.

On 18.1.2020 00:05 bron wrote:
66944 DL53 CL40 Still hanging out in the low DL50's. My current equipment sacrifices some speed in return for max Con and better damage output. But I really need to get the base speed to at least +10. And the TO situation is critical: at one point, I had 4 TO wands and life was good. But a few bad encounters with Storm Giants, and suddenly I'm down to one, with only 1 charge remaining. If it goes too, I'll have to retreat to shallower depths

On 18.1.2020 07:59 bron wrote:
71870 DL49 CL41 Lost my last TO wand and decided to move up to DL49. The RNG immediately smiled on this decision and I rapidly found 3 TO rods, and was able to buy a Lothlorien Bow from the Weaponsmith (did not even have to go through the Black Market). Mahad is a lot more comfortable at this depth. I'm currently planning on staying here until I get the base speed up to 10 or more. Hoping for some dynamite artifact like Ringil or Nenya, but realistically maybe a decent set of Boots.

On 19.1.2020 10:01 bron wrote:
Still haven't found any speed boots. However, I was able to *buy* a pair from the Black Market. They're only +4, but that's 4 more than I had before, and enough to boost Mahad up to the +10 barrier. With speed in hand, I've been descending rapidly, but I hope not too recklessly. Just picked up a Gondolin weapon with ESP, so the character is currently back in town trying to decide on the proper mix of equipment.

On 20.1.2020 02:44 bron wrote:
After a very long and often brutal grind, I'm starting to feel like maybe Mahad is finally getting ahead of the game. The +10 speed ring, and now the Glaive of Pain and Aglarang have turned Mahad from hunted into hunter. Still plenty of need to be careful; but things are starting to look a lot rosier.

On 20.1.2020 09:53 bron wrote:
91017 DL75 CL44 Mahad is starting to exterminate the mid-level uniques. With the find of Dal-i-thalion for nether protection, and with its extra Dex giving 5 blows with the Glaive, his kit is very strong. I'd like to find an Amulet of Trickery to get Nexus protection, but I'm pretty happy with things the way they are.

On 21.1.2020 03:19 bron wrote:
102714 DL82 CL47 Working through the uniques. I came *very* close to dying against both Ungoliant and against Carcharoth: somehow I didn't realize that one of the new possible side effects of a Dark attack is Amnesia. And Mahad's reliable "escapes" were scrolls, which I suddenly couldn't read. I can't really imagine how I haven't noticed this up to now. Clearly, I need to start carrying *Healing* in addition to everything else. Still haven't found a Trickery amulet, but I'm reasonably confident that I will eventually.

On 21.1.2020 07:21 bron wrote:
108202 DL87 CL48 Finally found the Amulet of Trickery I've been wanting, so that's one more resist hole plugged. I've decided that my previous problem with Dark attacks is that I must have been mistakenly wielding the Glaive instead of the Gondolin Lucerne Hammer, and so I had no resistance. This would also explain why I hadn't encountered this problem in my other games. I've also accidentally discovered the new pillar dancing: I stood waiting in a hallway behind some "passable rubble". When Ungoliant stepped onto the rubble, I hit her with Throw Monster, knocking her back. Rinse and repeat. This clearly feels like cheating, but I'm at something of a loss to explain why.

On 22.1.2020 09:03 bron wrote:
119600 DL94 CL50 A very successful hunt, with the targets helpfully summoning the missing high-end uniques. It was really useful that so many of them did not resist poison, e.g. Huan, Gothmog, Lungorthin, Tarrasque. Five blows with the poison-branded Glaive of Pain does a world of hurt. Ancalagon is the only remaining really threatening one, and with Razorback's lightning immunity (plus Thorin and a few Mushrooms of Emergency), I'm hopeful he won't put up too serious a struggle.

Thorin was a good upgrade over Elros. In addition to the immunity, the chaos protection let me rejigger the equipment to get a base speed over 30.

On 23.1.2020 03:14 bron wrote:
125415 DL100 CL50 Ancalagon is down. Sauron is down. Found a better Speed ring, and I'm debating if I want to go with Speed+34 and a resist hole, or full resist coverage and Speed+30. I'm kicking myself because I found a great Magi cloak - ESP, Int+2 ... but when I got back to town I discovered I hadn't ever actually picked it up.

On 23.1.2020 06:39 bron wrote:
126491 - Victory! A long hard fight, but eventually wore Morgoth down. Burned through a *lot* of healing potions, but at least this time I remembered to start out near to Hungry to avoid bloat. Thanks to the angband.live crowd for the encouragement, especially in the final fight, and special thanks to wobbly for letting me finish, so I can be on top for at least a few minutes, before he blows away my time with his own character.

On 23.1.2020 06:52 bron wrote:
This turncount was pretty slow, and legitimately should probably be even about 25K turns slower since I spent about 70K turns wearing Wormtongue boots. But still, I was happy to be able to bring this home at all, particularly since it was my first ever Blackguard.

Grats!

Oh, and did you melee Morgoth with only 117 AC? Glaive of Pain suggests you did.

On 23.1.2020 19:40 bron wrote:
Yes; 117AC. I debated using Razorback for the higher AC, but then I'd need to either use Dal-i-thalion for rNether (reducing speed), or go without. The Confusion hole was disturbing - Morgoth doesn't have a confusion attack, but he could easily summon something that does, and that could be a serious problem. But Morgoth *does* have a nether attack, so I didn't want to go without unless I had to (e.g. the previous comp). One can debate these tradeoffs endlessly in hindsight.
