    Default platinum girdle getters

    Just realized how rare this is. I have never, Grey said on
    IRC that he has never. I *think* soirana has, but can't
    remember for sure...

    I wanna show of hands, but only if you got it legitimately.

    Does a char who got to D:47 and then watched helplessly as a Unicorn killed itself on a fireball trap count?

    I just had another promising Platinum attempt fail because he couldn't get an amulet of Khelly. Ah well, time to start again...

    Who was the first one to discover the girdle anyway? (or was it just a code diven info?)
    When in darkness, you can always see the light (unless you're in ADOM)

    Most successful combos for me: Grey elf wizards, trollish healers, dark elf beast-fighters, Gnomey monks, and any race barbarians.

    Before degenerates like me it was bright period of wise player like Houeland, Malte and others.
    So far rolled 15 casters with RoDS and shamelessly killed them within 200 turns. For eternium glory!
    (after 15 I stopped counting...)

    So is the platinum girdle an artifact that you just find randomly, with some sort of criteria involved before it can be found?

    Random, no - you get it once you enter D:50. Criteria involved, very much, yes. Never perform a chaotic act (this is hard enough, but doable), and never allow a lawful creature to die. That includes Khelavaster, random blink dogs, white unicorns...
    ADOM Guides - whatever you wanted to know about playing a certain class, but have been afraid to ask!

    Check out my youtube channel to see my ADOM videos, including a completed playthrough of the game. I try to give instructions, so if you want to see some place you haven't been before and get some hints on how to deal with it, this might help! There's also some other games featured there that you might find interesting.

    And there might be other requirements which I do not remember.

    Do you have to do the Puppy Cave quest? Or does it count if you never talk to the Tiny Girl, thus never generating the Cute Dog?
    You hear the cries of the crowd: "Freebird!! Freebird!! Freebird!!"

    You play some tunes on your lute.
