My First Greater Checkerboard Vault cleared! This was an insane vault. I spent probably an hour and a half clearing it. The worst parts were teleporting out to follow an almost-dead unique, then landing right next to the Lord of Change, who decided it would be fun to follow me every time I teleported when I had 300 hp left. Gah. You can't see from the screenshots, but when I went in, I was at level 41. Uniques slain: Julian of Arden Forest The Lernean Hydra Ahtu, Avatar of Nyarlathotep Jisisl of Ice Meneldor the Swift Nyogtha, the Thing that Should not Be The Stormbringer Worst part that has me rather annoyed: Losing a pair of Metal Shod Boots of Speed (+10) early on because I didn't realize they wouldn't resist acid. Oh well. I'll see some again before long probably. Toughest fights I had to run from: a Lord of Change 2 Keepers of Secrets (almost got one) Kenshirou the Fist of the North Star (wow he hits hard) Lems the Cyborg whose earthquakes destroyed probably a lot of awesome loot. Dworkin Barimen who evaded me one last time. When next I see him, he will fall! I swear it! This is the LAST TIME! Posted on 28.11.2005 20:55 Comments?

I've decided he's my arch nemesis. On 6.12.2005 16:11 chriskousky@hotmail.com wrote: Late piece of advice: Things that follow you when you teleport do not themselves resist being teleported. So teleport them away :) Congrats on the vault! On 6.12.2005 20:42 NeoTiamatI@fuse.net wrote: Well, I had no means of teleporting anything. :P I now carry four rods of Teleport Other, which have served me VERY well in clearing checkerboards! Mostly because they get rid of Kenshirou the Fist of the North Star and summons that're all in a line like in these vaults. He's tough! Well, I beat Dworkin a few vaults later in a bubble vault. Hurray! :D I think I have all but two of the Amberites dead, too. Corwin and Gerard I believe. I also beat Scaellya or whatever in another vault, AND the Mouth of Sauron (same vault as Dworkin). So I'm moving up! But I'm running into uniques now that I'm a ways away from killing, and even at Clvl 50 now, I'm having trouble. x.x Need... better... equipment! Having to waste a ring on Shard Resistance stinks. Is swapping it out as I need for a Ring of Extra Attacks +1 worth the risk of losing one? I know it's worth losing the damage to keep my potions of curing, healing, speed, and resistance intact. :P Is there any list of equipment sets? I have a ton of artifacts and things, but I don't know any good combinations to hunt for. Seen 1647 times. |
