Get a pen and paper, make a note of the level number and layout (I do a quick sketch of where the stairs are), and join these to show which staircase leads to which level. I've only done it a couple...

As a mist elf he'd probably be able to cast it from very early on. I played a ME wiz recently who started with Death Ray and Teleportation, and read both with no problems for >400 spell knowledge at...

Bear in mind that it can be quite a while before you get it - I've been L37 or higher before. The messenger seems to enjoy waiting for an amusing time to pop up. Last time I got it I was stumbling...

Ye hast not been so ingenious...

Options I can see:
- Staying put in the hope of getting a casting of teleport from your babbling mouth (try to unburden yourself first as you've not got much...

In my first win was very paranoid about corruption on D:50 - to the point where I scummed for about 30 game days in the big room for a wish. At long last I got it, got 4 SoCRs and nervously...

Sorry about the lazy drawing.

Crystals of fire? Surround self with weak monsters before descending somehow - SoFS, figurines, wand/spell of monster creation?

Actually, don't think the latter would work as they wouldn't emerge...

400 versus 500 isn't going to make much difference. Especially since the amount of monsters on D:50 means you can't simply retreat & shoot all the time. Speed OTOH is always a benefit - even if...

You look like you're trying to play too "clean", having burned through most of Khelly's scrolls already. Most corruptions can be lived with or turned to your advantage - save removal for baddies like...

The bugs always penetrate armour so PV is no help. A single KB can do hundreds of damage on a character with decent DV so I'd be nervous (though I don't have much experience there). I doubt they will...

Serves you right for deserting your cause :)

Why did you sac on the chaotic altar? Trying to convert it?

Congrats, especially finishing with such a low experience level. My first three wins were all at level 50 fairly swiftly on tackling D50. Can't think of much better than Ironfist for this char,...

Ha, me too. Or rather a dozen of them, bred whilst I was healing and killing stuff on the rest of the level. Got around 6k points.

Hours later I remember 'm'...

By the time you've got Needle you're likely to be fairly high levelled anyway. I was curious about this with my assassin win but unfortunately I'd killed him long, long before. He didn't show me...

Dual-wielded spellbooks of dispel undead.

For the first couple of crossings of the forest, teleporting "blind" to the upstairs will work ~25% of the time. Even uncontrolled you have a good chance of getting reasonably near. I've lost a...

I will only do the forest if I have controlled teleport and invisibility now. A couple of frustrating deaths surrounded with hostile trees has ensured that. I'll usually cross DH from around level 16...

Set your system clock to midnight on 31st October for some fun!

Try playing around with different tactics to see what effect DV has on you. It’s one of those things where you’ll get a feeling for what’s best at a given point. Even fairly early on I find that...

Wait, what? There must be some dread corruption down there with the gate still open, no?

Also, how long does 1000 levels a day take? I just did the SIL for the first time and that was bloody...

It's all about the location...

Looks good, the new menus will take a bit of getting used to. Not sure about customising the game myself but that's just taste I guess. OTOH I do like the challenge of the week mode. I take it that...

Interesting. I tried at least ten times with no effect. Playing to random animals was pretty much guaranteed to calm on the first go, so I wonder if the blind rage state is different to just hostile?...

"Paddington, the cave bear, decides to fight to the death in a blind rage!"

Threw a couple of !oEH at him and played a lot of tunes, but no luck :( The worst part is that I'd spent the whole time...

1. Aquire hat, necklace and stick.
2. Hit Andy in the balls until he relents.
3. ???
4. Win!
