Ive been playing ADOM on and off several years now and this is the closest I have ever come to finishing the game.
I'm playing a grey elf ranger, crowned- completed all 4 temples, Keriax and Malakai, completed
GaabBay's quests and am right now in Sharad Waador's room. Havent talked to him yet.
I have some 7 corruptions now, with 1 RoDS and 1 WoW (1 charge), bracers of war, Sun's messenger
(neutral crowned) - High strength (60 - with GoGS) mid 20s dex, learning, willpower, mastery in
swords (eternium scimitar and eternium scimitar of swiftness), bows mastery (got fletchery from a
scroll of edu, I think) and skill with crossbows - found Far Slayer in a greater H vault, and
Preserver from grave robbery and Protector from a greater Red Dragon vault -
which also had something like 12 Greater Red Wyrms and took me from my mid 20s
(which I have never got beyond - to something like level 39).
Right now I'm level 47 and I want some perspectives - I badly want to complete the game, but an ultra
ending seems to be within reach.
There is one catch - I'm not sure what my first kill was - except I made it in the bandit village -
usually a beggar or a mugger - but could have been a cutpurse (40 something killed so far)
What are my odds of surviving? Oh I have two writing sets (4/5 uses) and was able to scribe two SoCR
out of 3 attempts.
WIll I become too corrupted - by trying to go for the ultra? Its already 240 odd days - should I
just play safe and go straight for a normal ending?
