Pretty good run (for me at least) so far. I made the decision to semi-dive - I want to visit and conquer as many dungeons as possible. The current dLvl of 10-11 seems to be my limit, I only narrowly escaped death a couple of times.

As usual, my problem is gaining enough blow/round, never mind resistances...

It looks like a lack of money is your main problem. Consider dropping back a couple of levels, collecting wands and selling them...

Yes, lack of gold is another thing... Basically, two or three trips to dLvl 10 cost me more than what I gained, especially having to restore stats after that last one.

I dropped (shouldn't it be climbed?) back to 8, where I don't face death every corner. It surprised me how much going from 1 blow to 2 blows helps, somehow it doesn't feel right that I do more damage with a completely ordinary Main Gauche than I did with a +3,+5 warhammer...

Try dipping you Main Gauche in stuff for a little extra edge. Also, stay still one turn before attacking strong enemies for higher criticals (or charge when you wear a heavy weapon again). Also, there are some goodies in other shallow dungeons and towns if you are out of resources and bored of those around you.

Anyway, I don't believe your Main Gauche is better than the warhammer. Perhaps you learned to play better?

Caught a lucky break. I found quite a few decent items that I could sell for much needed gold and to top it off nice hatchet and crossbow to replace my weapons.

Hanging out at dLvl10 may not be impressive, but I need more practice fighting breathers before descending much further.

Un _is_ hard, though I'd guess you less often die of boredom. If you get bored, there are rumors of lucrative low-level towers in towns far away... Of course there is a catch. :)

Oh well... YAAD I guess. (Avoidable Death).

I even life-detected the bloody Flytrap before I moved ino striking distance. Just had no way to get into LOS otherwise, and the other direction was blocked by a gaggle of hill orcs - which probably would have been a much lesser threat.

But without a monster recall I thought 'full HP, full SP, what's the worst that can happen'. *press key*. *boggle at the tombstone*.

Back to the drawing board. At least I NOW have monster recall on that thing. And I learned a couple of good lessons as well.

Yeah, an unknown monster on this depth without Free Action is a danger... But with a higher WIS you would probably survived. Or if you quaffed !Speed before the fight. Or a potion of Free Action.

Good to see there's still the possibility of paralyzation lock in Unangband - even with the tweaks I've done to try to make this avoidable. This would have been a lesson learned a lot earlier in other variants due to low level floating eyes.

I wanted to save the !speed for a fight where I would 'really' need it... Guess resources are there to be used, not to be saved up for later. ;)

Oh, the eyes were there a lot earlier. I just avoided them or took them out from way beyond their range.
