Kudos on your win! You did it in amazing time; it took me a year and I considered myself lucky.

Oh, that speed overflow... That's one of the sickest ways to die...
You... didn't happen to start this character on Friday, did you?
Because your character might be cursed. Even if that isn't true, though, you've been doing a great job surviving! It seems you're...
Rolled Tree Gnome Beastfighter... Don't have a capture of it at the beginning, but it's at the Water Temple...
Going for Lithium.
I wouldn't consider levels to be as important as the farthest you've gotten within a dungeon, or which boss you've killed. Haven't you reached the Casino?
What? I've never heard of that. Really?
I like it.
Never mind, I'm dumb. I didn't know what IRC was offhand.
I like your style, Lasher. That's similar to what I did with Human Weaponsmiths until I won. However, I recommend you roll randomly every once in a while. ADOM doesn't lose its flavor quickly, but...
I thought eternium golems were immune to acid. They spit acid, don't they?
Ghuls do seem to paralyze you less at higher levels, but I suspect it's mostly because they're not doing any damage to you. They're not very tough. Necromancers have a class power that gives them...
Intellectually, I do realize that every race has its strengths, and I respect your differing opinion.
But yeah, for me, it's humans.
Ah, the High Elven Weaponsmith was at least a bit promising. I'm glad my recommendation wasn't totally worthless. I love Weaponsmiths! I was dead set on winning the game with a Weaponsmith first, so...
Reading this thread from top to bottom was certainly an interesting way to kill an evening. I think my favorite two are "My Hands Are Clean" and "The Adventures of drax."
"Sorry, but I need a rare...
Elementalists don't find spellbooks as often as the other spell-casting classes. They're also not as good at learning them, I believe.
You don't even need to tell us that 9 out of 10 characters die...
Humans. Humans are the best at everything. I will beat this game with every class, using humans only. Except the one Gnomish Fighter that was randomly rolled on Creator's Day.
Kinslayer's crowning-only for Assassins and Necromancers. Which is kind of a shame, because it's my favorite one-handed weapon in the game, even though it's not as good as Executor.
You could give weaponsmiths a try - A Candle or Book-born one would be best. Elven weaponsmiths start with that fabulous chain mail, and all weaponsmiths start with at least 16 strength, even...
1. It's unlikely that your undead will survive that quest. Don't get too attached to them this early in the game in any case; you won't be able to make them out of durable enough corpses, and the...
At least it was probably a blessed one, or he'd have lost all of his strength, too. Incidentally, I have never seen a Troll Assassin with a GE Assassin Toughness stat.
Woah, that's a lot of nice stuff. Congrats on the win; were there any really prominent challenges to mindcrafting? I was thinking of making one after I win with a farmer.
Bless at least one of these before walking in. Uncursed blankets have much less durability. If you can, you should also bless your higher-order healing potions. When you're fighting the boss, it's...
Oh, been there. Forget that at your peril. It's pretty sick that you could kill him, though.
Doppelganger kings mimic your PV/DV, speed, and to-hit bonus, with the added benefit that all of...
Be careful doing that for long - you'll slowly accumulate corruption past D:9. You'll want to keep that in mind as you grind.
Ah, I hate that bracers of toughness are so fragile. And that's a pretty bad lot to end up with in a pyramid.
