    Default Any Advice?

    It's been a while since I've gone near the COC, any advice? Darkforge raided. A herb level generated in the puppy cave, stoma/pepper and moss/morgia stable. Healing 100 with the Heal+Calm Monster spells just in case I'm in need of !'s of healing. My score's going to suck because of all of the pets of mine that died but not really caring at this point, just want to win finally. Several alters, one in puppy cave, one in UD, and two in the village dungeon. One shop(potions). Tonnes of loot that neither my Deity nor I want, that I will end up selling to Waldy. Haven't touched the COC yet. Any advice?

    Touch the CoC already. Your character is obscenely strong. Where are your potions? You might be in ToEF shape right now. Most certainly if you do the water temple first and have the healing from the water orb and some more levels to get your HP above 200.

    But swap the dual rings of luck for the ring of speed and the ring of mental stability. Rings of luck don't do a lot to begin with, and on top of the ankh, it's basically nothing. By the way, if you're noticing that you use a lot more food than normal, unequip that cloak of invisibility. Also, you might want to swap the shields. I might be mistaken, but I think if both hands have shields in them, the game uses the left hand shield to calculate shield weapon skill training. It could also be that the game checks for the better shield in which case it doesn't matter, but I would wield the better one on the left hand anyway. Truth be told, I probably wouldn't be using two shields to begin with because I'd be using a melee weapon, but I am kinda terrible at this game in many respects. You can definitely do it this way for hard fights with your tons of spells and ammo.
    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.

    You are more than ready for the ToEF. I think you should go there first, to gain some more experience before you enter the CoC.
    You steal a scroll labelled HITME. The orc hits you.

    I agree with the above. You are probably ready for the Tower, but you should get the Water orb (and elemental gauntlets) first.
    Hoping to win with every class, doomed. Archer, Barbarian, Bard, Beastfighter, Druid, Elementalist, Farmer, Fighter, Monk, and ULE Priest down.

    I'd also have to suggest descending the CoC, and the dwarven graveyard, to get the water orb and elemental gauntlets and to gain a few extra levels just in case. I noticed that you said you usually don't get to the CoC, have you ever managed to take down the ToEF because it can be a cruel mistress. Either way I'd still say go with the CoC first

    Oh I've been there often enough, recently tho I just haven't gotten around to it. Taken out the tower with ~4 characters. Going to the COC now before I have to leave for work.

    Edit: Sorry, the log had to be cut down to the bare minimum, nothing to interesting in the ! department, some !'s of carrot juice, some !'s of invis balance and healing and some misc. boost !'s

    At GriffYard now. No less than three herb levels on my way to DT. Cleared upper part of GriffYard. Got 7LB(uncursed) as a random drop, wearing them thinking about blessing them with my last holy water. Few other thing of note. Going to work, will be back.

    Don't forget to dig up the sword. Extra willpower will be nice, with all those ball spells.

    Got Elemental Gauntlets, RotHK, sword of Nonnak, and 12 eyes corruption. Going down to do the water temple, then going to see if I'm ready for the fire temple.
