Reaching L+?

[Twinge]

Uh, "requirement"? Wat.

[JellySlayer]

Unless you're level 50, getting to L+ shouldn't generally be too much of a problem, to be honest. It takes a bit of extra time, but I've never found it to be hugely inconvenient.

That said, I'm not exactly sure what the problem with a dwarf priest is. You are free to change alignment with any class without real penalty (aside from possibly pissing off a deity). You can just as easily be crowned as a chaotic dwarf priest as a lawful one.

[Doorsfan]

Well, call me lazy or stupid, but if you are to get crowned you ought to put some effort into it, you ought to be arsed to find a level with some stomafillia to scum for about 10 mins (100 blessed) and the appropiate alignment level.

Now, dwarves, they start out with L. Wich means it's a requirement to rolling dwarf to start out with L, and unless you have some shrewd plan of how to properly go to N and all of that tedious work, however you would do it, for a crowning, then it's simply much more easy to NOT roll a race that starts out with L, as N= is quite the easiest one of alignments to reach. Unless you have a whip and the patience, and i did not have the whip nor the patience for a whip as i beat my self to death, knowingly, recklessly, on a artifact guardian*.

Going from L to N= takes about 30 seconds... at worst, just kill a beggar or two in Lawenithelol. If you're going for a neutral crowning, you've presumably found a neutral altar, in which case you can also just convert your alignment with gold (1 gold piece at a time for maybe 10 iterations should put you neutral).

[Doorsfan]

Acctualy, i found a chaotic altar of then wich i converted to a neutral altar, and it was in thougt of that i'd go for neutral crowning - thougt seeing how my pre-crown gift was thunderstroke and a couple of other factors, it was acctualy quite a flawed char (i had teleport but had to recieved TPC for 18 levels, even thougt i had a while where i went rampant raging on blink dogs). So im going to roll a new one, and this time ; not a dwarf.

If you have the means, healing your pet is a good solution. Only problem is that it needs to be actually injured.

This means, you need a ? of familiar summoning, cure light wounds and move the whole circus to the Tower.

An L altar on a cavernous will help, but is pure luck.

Rolled a new dwarven priest, im at about lev 18 at the moment, have robbed the tomb of the high kings (i got so paniced when i realized teleport don't work, but luckily no confusion got to me), ignored the pyramid (already got black torc for neck and the crowning i got is cold immunity, and also i have seen the mummy lord do quite insane damage, at other chars), done the dwarven graveyard, got through animated forest, yeah, i don't know what to do, proceed to water temple?

Robbed Darkforge, got 2 black dragon scale mails, only took 1 of em tho, was too much of weights to carry 2, got "The Purifier" as crowning gift, so now in total im running about with 30ish DV and 43 PV in normal stance ; hence i run about in berserk most of the time and just mow down anything that comes in my day. Now im pondering what to do thougt, cause i did manage to get my crowning, a post crowning wont happen due to absurd amount of artifacts spawned (Moon sickle, si, gladius, purifer, elemental gauntlets etc.).

Anywho, i started out as lawful, and after a small incident, where i sacrificed too much and the god got kinda pissed at me, i got all my gear turned to dust - thougt being crowned shortly after for neutral deity, meant i at least had purifier. So i ran about with purifier, completely NAKED otherwise, but hey, it turned out fine - i'm rolling on with my priest. I don't recall how but somehow i managed to get 29 To, huh..

I find the water dragon cave to be the most convenient place. Read a blessed SoFS in there and keep healing. Only problem is that many monsters will start panicking quickly, so it helps to have high speed in case they start running away.
