    Default Nep, The dwarvish beastfighter. Speed run

    This was nice game. I got the 7LB early so I decided to do my very first speedrun. I forgot to reeguip the boots few times so wasted a few days, but Im happy anyways.

    Early game was pretty standard, did puppy, smc, UC and then to COC farmed few herbs for food and TO/WI/DX training. No means to pacify big room so I didnot stay for long. First altar was found before DT. Precrowned with the Crown of leadership, nice. Got the elder q's and went to big room for imp. Didnt take long. After that back to DT and through DH where I almost died to stone giant lord, luckily i had WoT and control so I get away.
    Next was ogre cave and arena. After arena went to pyramid and GY, no problems there. I had picked up wand of cold so I did the Tomb and after that druid dungeon. Back to COC, got crowned with lightning immunity and fine leather armor....doh. Gods need some common sense I think. Finished elder q's and did the WT, dug up few graves, but nothing useful there. After that went to DF and cleared that for exp. Killed the smith there too. With one blessed firproof blanket I decided to try the tower. It was extremely easy. ring of invisibility and cursed potions of invis, did the job. I prob killed 5 mobs besides ACW.

    Dive to casino was boring, and no useful stuff in the shop. Robbed it anyway for giggles and some potions/scrolls/ammo.
    Air/earth temples was a breeze, after those i was lvl 30. No greater vaults. One surge of power with extremely experienced chaos spider and protector. Killed the spider with few criticals and sacced the shield. Mana temple was next. AMW and lvl32 beastfighter talent made it pretty easy. I got some nasty corruptions and few death ray hits but in the end Archmage died to my fists. No uselessness pots so no gift. D50 was cheesed....killed the mutants, WMoPC's and both lever rooms. Wand of DC/para/monster creation did the rest. Back up for unicorn guest and after that it was time to head back home.
    0 wishes, 0 greater vaults, only few artifacts. I enjoyed this anyway. Beastfighter is pretty solid for entire game if you are at the appropriate exp level. Altough I missed the excitment to identify new weapons and shields

    Heres some FLG:

    Congratulations on what is a very fast win in days (not sure if I did it faster than 39) but 45000 turns? That is not a speed run. Current record is something like a tenth of that!
    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.

    45k turns is fast for a non-spellcaster. Not close to the record speeds, but still very fast. The typical run takes about 80k turns. IIRC, only two or three YAVP ever posted on the forum are faster. My fastest run ever was 48204 turns. http://www.adom.de/forums/showthread...g-beastfighter

    Of course a wizard can very easily beat this due to teleportation.

    I did not use a single spell in the whole game. Just wands, few teleport zaps now and then. I know wizzys can do it lot faster. Maybe ill try that next...
    I could have snipped lots of turns several occasions, but i just wanted to do my own record, and not stress so much about turns. This is good reference for future attempts...

    Saw your thread and decided to stop wasting time with the beastie I was playing and stormed through the rest of the game - started with ~35k turns just after I got crowned and saved Khelly - it was before ToEF. I had Teleportation and should have probably spammed it all the way (started doing it near the end only).
    Beat you for 2k turns in the end Potions of invis also worked wonders on balors and Sharad, so nice score to boot.

    Speedrun record for melee is somewhere around 20k IIRC. Paladin or barbarian are the preferred classes--try to cheese a quick crowning for either Vanquisher or Justifier, get teleport control and use a corruption trap to get teleportitis. Reroll if any of the above doesn't work out well for you.

    FWIW, I don't have any melee characters at anywhere close to 45k. Most of my PCs tend to finish in the 80k range, although I do have a 35k necro and a 45k mindcrafter. Good job Saracen!
    Hoping to win with every class, doomed. Archer, Barbarian, Bard, Beastfighter, Druid, Elementalist, Farmer, Fighter, Monk, and ULE Priest down.
