Sylvanas, the dark elven archer

[Lich]

This character is my third successful one in about three years of playing. I had really good luck in the beginning, my exploration of the ID yielded 4 PoGAs. I had to use a RoDS for some wands of door creation because I dug away some wall I shouldn't have on D49. The strangest thing is that if it wasn't for a writing set, this post probably would have ended up in YASD.

You spent a wish on wands of door creation?

I want details on why the hell THAT was necessary!

[Grey]

I imagine he got himself stuck in a spot where throwing an item moved him 2 spaces, but the corridor he wanted to get to was only 1 space away, so all his efforts kept bouncing him back and forth either side of the corridor. However, I can't personally see how you could get in such a situation where further digging wouldn't solve such a crisis.

[Lich]

I was standing in the south corridor of D49. I thought I could save some time so I zapped a wand of digging to the northwest. Of course, if I had zapped straight north, everything would have been fine, but this was the situation I created:

The wall to the west of the staricase has been dug away. Even if I took the long way around, there is nothing to block me from sliding past the stairs. The only option I could think of was to use a door to replace the wall. When I looked through my inventory, however, of the 20+ wands I carried, none of them was door creation! So I had to wish for one or never reach D50.

I still don't see the problem. You could have pushed yourself up the NW corridor and then pushed yourself back, landing on the down stairs. You could have dug a hole just above the stairs, pushed yourself into that space, and then kicked yourself down onto the stairs. Creating a door is a clever way of getting round the situation, but not when it means wasting a wish :P

But ah well, since you had a good victory it's clear you didn't need that wish anyway.

[warheart]

Didn't you have a pick axe? Quite easier to get to the stairs digging one by one, so you can't really miss the target.
