> well gut ... thats the deal ... didn't find one of those either

don't paladins always start with a blessed one?

> and was using club and shield at that point

the RNG felt you were mocking it by refusing to wield the 'of devestation'
gift it had granted you earlier. you were asking for a 2-ghul gangbang.

Should have backed up into a choke point and fought one at a time.

[gut]

tsk tsk fazisi. You wouldn't get as many shield marks doing that.

Fazti ... kinda hard to find one of those while moving from one stair to another in Big Room

[gut]

best big room navigation is by walls. You will be spotted by
fewer enemies, and have 3 less adjascent squares. Not exactly
a choke point, but still.
