Challenge Games

[Soirana]

got an idea for another challenge

Elitist Jerk

Never use any item in any slots unless its an artifact...
bonus points for doing it with a character without spells or Natually boosted unarmed fighting (ie. Beastfighter & Monk)

Marks this as to do thing for 2011. Surely as assassin since if i do not make this my Adom geekishnes won't be complete

[Molach]

I'll start today. Got an idea of sorts which should be pretty easy to test out and see if works.

[JellySlayer]

Double Bonus if you never carry anything but Artifacts (dropping as soon as you make sure stuff aren't an artifact which should be done asap)

I like this idea.

What should be done about food? Only eat stuff you find on the ground?

[gut]

only livesac crownings would be practical, thus reducing the value of dt altar

edit: I see pictures of me rolling troll fighter/barbarian/assasin and looking for SMC altar

EDIT2: poor khelly

[Dudley]

No special ending.
Poor smith. (happy too, you're not gonna kill them... are you?)
Poor wizards. Poor archers.

[fazisi]

I won't try it.

[Albahan]

I won't try it.

Me neither, I hate elitists.

Trying this as a Dwarf ranger. Got to level 10, found a N altar in the DD. Tediously worked up to a livesac crowning... got the elven longbow

Guess I didn't have much chance of a useful gift as a ranger anyway... I'll see if sun's messenger is any good as a missile. I guess it still probably slays undead.

I vote for a special bonus for anyone who chooses a thief, gets crowned with Silver Key and uses only it in weapon slot.

Meh. Thieves have relatively easy access to a *good* artifact weapon.
