    They seem more like a concept weapon to me. You use them if they fit the type of character you want to play, but if you are going for optimal play and you are focusing on a melee setup, then they are...

    If you want a challenge avoid any type of spell casters and play a melee. Class selection is kind of a way to change the difficultly of the game. Wizards are by far the easiest to play, then other...

    I would not put much stock in such lists, it clearly is not representative of the actual ADOM player population. I didn't even know that site existed.

    I personally hope that melee classes are never "balanced" to caster classes. Casters are far too easy and melee keeps the game interesting. Casters just amass power and nuke everything, melee...

    I believe you can no longer wish for pairs of 7LBs, I think it is one pair per wish now. Not that that would have convinced me; I never considered it a very convincing aspect before.

    I just never favored wishing for items that have a significant chance of being destroyed. I know people like 7LBs, but personally I just don't think they are worth a wish. I just don't put as much...

    When I played wizards, farsight was one of my top three spells. Farsight, magic missile and teleport makes you just about unstoppable.

    However, I am not a big archer player either, see you seem...

    I personally think in most cases the amulet of life saving to save Khelavaster or an eternium tower shield are really the only two items worth wishing for. There might be special cases like if you...

    We can argue that any skill can be used, even woodcraft, but that still doesn't mean it is a worthwhile skill. The whole skill tree is antiquated and could use revision.

    I am not arguing they are useful, I am arguing like appraising they are not devoid of all use. Just because a skill can sometimes be used that doesn't mean it is not in need of improvement.
