It's been five years, but I've developed a hankering for Angband again. Gvee the Kobold Rouge overthrew Morgoth and claimed his rightful place as lord of all evil. Let's see if TuqTuk the Half-Orc Ranger can do the same.

Right now he's level 20 and is doing all right. His Defender comes in handy more for its resistances and the See Invisibility than it does for actually killing stuff. When he runs into anything tough he relies on his crossbow.

Since you're at clvl 20, you should switch to a longbow so you can take advantage of the extra shot. That xbow is only (+10, +6) anyway, which you can easily approach with a longbow by enchanting it up.

Thanks for the pointer on the bow. I'm not really up on the nuances of Rangers. I actually only just switched over, for awhile there I was getting better damage from my Sling of Power even with just the one attack.

I'm still moving right along. I cleared a couple of small vaults and was rewarded with a nice cloak and some gloves. However either Superb levels aren't what they used to be or I'm missing something. I've gone through two without finding anything more interesting than a Cloak of Stealth. I just got Dethanc off a Novice Warrior and wish I had see invis from somethign other than my trusty Defender Cutlass.

You currently do more damage with unenchanted arrows than you would with Dethanc when you include better skill with arrows. You should be joyous that you have a defender. Be sure to buy every single unenchanted arrow for sale every time you visit town, even if just to stock extras in your home.

You're right of course. I chose a Ranger on a whim and I guess I'm having trouble coming to terms with the fact that my role in life is to stick everything full of arrows. I've revamped my equipment somewhat to make better use of my bow. Finding an even nicer Defender is a bonus. Although when I really need to smack something down I switch to my new Shovel of Earthquakes. Because beating things to death with a shovel is good fun. +7 strength gives nice bonus to hnd with the bow as well.

TuqTuk has now wrested Sting from the clutches of Draebor the Imp and Thranduil from the clutches of... the dungeon floor. Things are looking good.

Things have grown distinctly harder the last few levels. Lots more running away. I ran into a Vampire Lord who nearly killed me a couple of times until I fled the level. So I'm slowing down a bit until I either get substantially tougher or find some better equipment or both.

I've toughened up significantly and will be proceeding downward now.

Ouch! A Dracolisk killed me with a single fire breath attack. I knew it was nasty but I had no idea it could incinerate me like that right through two levels of fire resistance. Live and learn. Well, learn anyway...

On 10.4.2009 07:36 Pete Mack wrote:
It can't. with double resistance, max Fire damage is 1600/9 = 177. For a Dracolisk, it is 3500/3/9 = 129. So either your temporary resistance had run out, or you didn't have double resist in the first place, or you were already way down on HP.

Note that:
1. Resistances are not cumulative. You get 1/3 elemental damage from any number of rFire or temporary resist from scarabtrices, or 1/9 from rFire and temporary rFire.

2. At a little over 300 HP, that dracolisk could have blown you away anyway, by breathing Nexus. With Nexus resist, he can do 328 damage in a single turn. Without it, he can do 400. One turn of melee with the 5-headed hydra would have been enough to make you vulnerable.


On 10.4.2009 14:20 John McCoy wrote:
Ah. I'd misunderstood the nature of multiple resistances. Apparently I had only a single resistance to fire going for me, so *poof*, I'm a cinder. Although as you essentially go on to point out, the real issue here is that the Dracolisk had me totally outclassed.
