    I once calmed down a hostile NPC by letting him kill a companion. This is the only thing that could *maybe* work, afaik. But it probably won't work.

    Everburning torch is a cool item. My favourite way to waste a wish.

    ADOM being ADOM, I imagine it would go something like this.

    Yeah, duelists are crazy strong in the endgame, but have a somewhat bumpy early game. Not the best class to make use of the far slayer, did you end up using it at all?

    Rdsm is more shiny, but will help a lot less. Wishing for two potions of toughness gives you +8 toughness, that will massively increase your HP and also +2 PV.

    You already have a 7 PV armor, so a...

    An ordinary ring is not always RoDS. It belongs to a group of 4 rings that can swap descriptions in every game. IIRC: DS, damage, slaying and fire. Now you already identified other rings as damage...

    It depends on the kind of turn count you want to reach. Getting below 10k turns requires extreme skills, tactics and luck, below 40k much less so. I would advise to start with a few practice games,...

    A hurthling CK has no problem getting food, that's why I like them.

    If there is a distance between you and the gorgon, taking it out with bolt spells is your best bet (wand of acid is probably best). The stone breath has a very short range (2 or 3 squares, according...

    I don't remember exact numbers, but the most memorable experience I had was getting an absurd PV with a Chaos Knight, after crowing with the plate mail. I felt safe fighting steel golems by holding...

    That's a cool idea. In that case I guess that blessed boots should also give a bonus on kicking undead.

    Those quests are optional. If you get tired of them, why not skip them and play the game a little differently? You don't miss out on anything essential.

    Okay, here's an opinion.

    The nice thing about staves is the weapon skill; it offers lots of DV, in addition to good damage and to-hit.

    The problem is that you can (nearly always) get even...

    A gray elf dies of old age after 2020 to 2800 years. You'd have to wish for a whole lot of potions. A mist elf naturally reaches an age of over 40000 years.

    What playing style are you looking for?
    How do you value early game survival vs late game power?
    Do you like a fast game where you tackle problems heads-on, or do you want preptime like Batman?
