Ridiculous I know to post a level 10 character but I just felt I had to so he wouldn't die stupidly. I can't bring myself to continue with my lvl 32 Ninja at the moment (don't know why - just don't feel like sneaking around) and my 5 Samurai's (Rockblade I-V) all died without showing heaps of promise so started a Chaos Warrior and his patron (slaanesh) has seen fit to augment and improve his stats so that at level 9 he already has 4 blows.

Anyway upwards and onwards with Surgol I say - Can anyone advise whether it's worthwhile to dual wield with a chaos warrior further down the track or does the skill cap of 7000 on it make it untenable?

On 23.3.2005 13:39 kingvictory2003@yahoo wrote:
A 7000 Dual Wield is worthwhile to pursue if you find that your damage output on big nasty monsters is not cutting it. To be absolutely honest though, any character that desires to dual wield to greatest effect should identify every single pair of gloves that comes your way, hoping for Genji Gloves. Such gloves allow your dual wielding to-hit to soar through the roof, and accordingly, are quite rare.

On other things, I'm noticing a horrific lack of escape modalities on your character, which is a quick recipe for death in every known Angband variant in existence today. I recommend having at least 10, if not 20 scrolls of phase door, and at least 10 scrolls of teleport on hand whenever possible. If you're really paranoid, a staff of teleport could be used for those times you're blinded or confused, but they usually burn up in a puff of smoke before I have the opportunity to use them.

Good luck,

Victor

Victor,

I sent you an email then realised I should probably just update here.

The reason I didn't have any phase door or teleport scrolls at this dump is because he didn't have any money and this was his initial quick dive to get to the Warg Quest. I figured it was worth the 10 minute risk to knock them off and If I died could just restart with minimal time wasted.

He now carts around a complement of 20 of each ( as well as CCW, Heroisim and other staple items).

Thanks for the info re the Gloves. I'll look out for them.

I love Hengband - the AI is great and the playbalance is good too.l

Will update dump for this character @lvl 40. I'm determined to do well with him now that I've posted him.

Aahh - Gachapin and Toxic waste.... I'll have to remember that for next time... What's the relevant resistance to have to try and reduce that damage - one breath took me all the way down from fully heroic health of 394 to -15. And to think I had my finger poised to read a scroll of teleport when he woke up but I decided, because I had chaos resistance, to stick around. Oh well - off to start Surgol II....

That figures - I knew about the hole - just haven't really dealt the Gachapin before. Though chaos res was enough . Surgol II is up and running ( as a lucky character - we'll see what happens).

If you're having money problems and playing a "Lucky" character, you should definitely hit the casinos in Telmora or Morivant and try to win.

You could end up losing your pants, but my ratio of winning big to losing big is always ridiculously high with Lucky characters. If you're something of a veteran of Angband, then the Monster Arena, you should definitely be able to win money on by skill, by knowing each monster's resistances/attacks. After you build up a decent chunk of money with that, head to the dice slots. AFAIK, the highest payoff ratio is 1000.

Good luck!

Thanks for the advice.

I've changed tack an little bit now (Surgol II and III both dead - II courtesy of his patron who froze hiim on level up duing the thieves quest and promplty summoned critters to take care of him and III I suicided @lvl 10 when his paron poplymorphed him into a Kutar.... I'm still playing a chaos warrior but it's a Balrog and he's using daemon magic. He's also lucky. Currently lvl 20 but I won't post him till he gets some better gear. Being a Balrog sure makes getting money interesting. We'll see what happens as his kit still stinks...

I forgot to mention that I've take precautions agains my lucky Balrog chaos warrior, ("Rapax the Red"), being polymorphed by his patron by looking up the different reward tables for the Patrons and I found that Chardros and Hionhurn can't do that so I rolled until I got one of those with decent starting hps (Chardros in this case).

aargh - Rapax the Balrog chaos Warrior (Daemon) died doing old man willow quest at chlvl 22. I enjoyed playing him but food was an issue ( I ended up eating a couple of uniques )... + it takes ages to level up. I really want to see a high level chaos warrior using Daemon magic so I'm thinking of either going with a lucky high elf or imp - I'm leaning towards an imp for the low xp requirement 15% and see invisible. Yep I've decided - imp it is - I'm going to keep the name as I like it alot ( Rapax the Red ). I don't think I'll bother posting Rapax the Balrog as he was only level 22. Looking at the chaos Patron reward table on the spoiler site I'm going to roll him up with Hionhurn as his patron as there's no chance of being polymorphed and theres good potential to gain stats (gain ability 2 in 19 and gain Aug 2 in 19).

Stay tuned for his high level posting (ROFL...)

I've started the imp as promised but I decided to change his name to "Bluehorn" - Hey I like it and that's all the matters. "Rapax the Red" sounded too Balroggy... LOL
