My first Human win :)
Damn. Beastfighters rock. Not that well suited to Ultras (holding ToTRR is bit
complicated, and too much speed early on = sloooow levels), but still.

No 7LBs until the Casino, by which time I was well past 90 days.
Kelly saved by Darkforge, PC screwed by Ghost librarian, managed to waste so much
time trying to get bloody weird tome he managed to miss Keriax at day 120. Oops.

All the temples were basically very easy - all but Mr Mana fell to Loo's iron-coated
fists, with Nuurag meeting his doom courtesy of some slaying ammo, which also came
in handy against the Emperor Moloch (too easy) and Andy (insanely tough, was beginning
to wonder if I had brought enough ammo with me...bare fists were not as effective
as I was hoping, although boosting strength would have helped, and as for the trident,
not sure Loo really knew which end to poke at the bad guy).

Unicorn dilema was solved with corruption removal - I ended up hanging around D50 for
ages and ages, but was definietly right move - not got so many SoCR left over by
time Andy fell (although I do have four spare wishes, so not too drastic).

Spent a huge amount of time scumming for XP in the blue dragon caves - last 20 or so
ancient blues before I hit level 45 were pretty hard core, but I got a couple of RoDS
for my pains, so I was pretty happy.

Everything on D50 fell to my fists, apart from Fisty (irony oppurtunity missed :( ) who
I took out with demon slayers just for hell of it really.

Was N- by time everything on D50 was dead, so had to spend hundreds of turns wearing my
fave S+M gear (rings of doom sexy baby) whipping myself, which wasn't very effective - I
was glad of not having thrown away all my scrolls of increase melee damage and accuracy,
because I had to pimp my whip for increased effectivity.

Apart from that, a pretty standard game I guess (my first UNE, yay). Some more comments
below....

His further life:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

After slaying Andor Drakon and dispersing his malevolent energies the scales
of Balance appear before you. All the forces of Balance seem to be united
behind them. You are lifted to the status of an Avatar of Balance and the
tales of your deeds are spread all over Ancardia.

Your deeds are recounted at camp fires and interpreted by philosophers and
priests alike. The common man looks up to you and you slowly start to be
revered as a minor power of Balance. After a few millennia have passed you
are raised to the position of a demi-god to guard Ancardia from the forces
of Chaos and Order forever.

Under your guidance Ancardia becomes a balanced and happy world, enjoying
its own freedom to be never again threatened by the unbalancing powers of
the universe.

For easier final battle you should have done the following: drop the medal and crown of chaos, they corrupt you, and wished for speed with at least 3 of your wishes.

Though your way it was probably more interesting battle.

> > whipping myself, which wasn't very effective

I recently discovered a handy trick to make that process
much more effective. Unfortunately, I forgot what it was.
I think it might have been to wield hats, gloves, or boots
while meleeing jellies. Then again, it might have been to
strip down a bit and just keep letting a ratling duelist
degrade some of your already worthless stuff. I'm pretty
sure it was the jellies thing though. Anyway, I think there
is a limit to just how many -PV points can be put on stuff
before they entirely disentigrate, but I can't remember
what it is. Still, that little trick can turn any whip into the
slaughtering kind.

> For easier final battle

What, no PoCC tossing?

> am pretty sure trying to get thru the gate at N- is death...

It's been so long since I tried a UNE I couldn't remember, but was
curious enough to peek at the GB:

" PC enters the Chaos Gate as a crowned N= Champion of Balance
wearing the Crown and Medal of Chaos and wielding the TotRR"

So you're probably right.

Only 3 prayers is good, and your score is very respectable, considering
how many turns you were forced to wasted in the library.

I didn't know if that was done already, the things I brought up I could see were not done.

I did indeed toss a PoCC... not entirely crazy.

not remembering to drop the chaos artifacts was a bit careless, agreed.

As for the speed issue - seems I got away with it :)

As it was, ok, it took a fair while, but PC was at no point even slightly at risk, so no huhu.

Oh. I assumed he didn't use the PoCC because he wrote:

> and Andy (insanely tough,

But I suppose he could have been reffering to high HP's.

Anyway, I just (mini) tested my theory about using jellies to add
-PV to equipment. It turns out that most of the time that one hits
a jelly with boots, it just degrades the to-hit modifier. Sometimes
though, it does add -PV. Against ochre jellies, the gear always
disentigrated before any -PV was added, but against gray oozes,
I was able to consistantly get something like (-9, 0) [0, -3]. That
isn't as great as I was hoping, but still an option for PC's that don't
find a whip of slaughtering.

Yeah just the HPs - I just couldn't believe how long it took to bring him down - my only other ultra (Delf ULE) was an Archer, so poor Andy never had a chance. This time round, I was like, happy to throw the PoCC, and had poisoned all my arrows, last time round, didn't need any of that crap. Archers being better at Ultras than Beastie Boys is a bit of a no brainer though.

As for the PV stuff - I normally find a fair amount of -PV crap anyway, just this time I was too careless with inventory management... in the end, two rings of doom, some [0,-3] clothes I found on D50, and devil rose sickness were enough with my pimped whip of slaughtering. If that hadn't worked, my next step was going to be writing some SoProtection and cursing them with my unholy waters... then there was WoMonster Creation, SoFS, and casting cure light wounds to consider (if I ran out of heal and cure serious that it... would have needed spellbook, could always have wished for one), so I had back up alignment plans - the joy of ADOM - even on an empty D50, there are still plenty of options available to a PC with alignment issues...
