I've won with a mindcrafter myself. I used mindcraft to confuse all the difficult monsters and then killed them in melee. This strategy was used against basically every monster in the game and I...

Without an altar, this challenge is perhaps possible, but really difficult. You need to find a corpse very quickly to stop the damage, and uou need to find a wand of digging, because you don't have...

Piety overflow would be difficult to pull off as a level 1 char, because the bolts of true matter will kill your PC. I don't see a way around this, because there are no undead in Terinyo.

Once I saw no less than 4 stone giant lords in HMV. There can be quite a few, if you're (un)lucky.

My last 3 victories have all had a greater giant vault - and every time I've found BoW from there.

Bracers of War and Preserver are definitely the two best artifacts in the game (3rd is probably TotRR or RoMC). Mummy wrapping is good, because it's also known as Nuurag-Vaarn slayer or the bane of...

It's not really a big loss. You will have to do a normal ending, but that's about all. I've won once with a fallen champion myself - I thought falling would be a big deal but it wasn't.

Food should not be a big issue. Level 1 characters don't eat a lot and with 2 prayers you get a lot of turns...

If you scum enough to start with water breathing and darkness spellbook, the only...

A lot of items are generated in the water cave, so I guess potions of poison are sometimes generated as well. Dip your weapon to poison, hit the dragon several times and watch it die...? Wands of...

Vaults also cut rivers strangely sometimes.

The quickling has some items which causes the game to crash (ingots that do not stack properly, perhaps). The only way around this bug is to ignore the quickling.

I had a similar problem with a...

Go straight to the water cave, kill Blup's mom and leave the chain. Is it possible?

Problems:
1. Drowning
2. Killing Blup's mom


Problem 1. If you have swimming skill to start with, you'll...

Besides, you don't need to go down to D28 to get the water orb...

Taking berserker emperors in melee is often a suicide unless your character is really beefy or level 30+. The might of berserker...

It's not very likely you'll hang around in the village dungeon after you have healing and bridge building though, so killing Jharod should not be a big deal. I hate stat drains and that's why I...

Those rooms are really funny. One of the funniest things I have seen was an ancient white dragon tension room in the tower of eternal flames. I'd really like to know what those dragons were...

If you find a ring of weakness, greater giant vaults are your best friends. With food preservation 100 and stomaceptia you'll probably gain about 30-40 strength from the vault.

But the flipside of...

Yes, the problem with the black tome are the big spells. You'll gain a lot of corruption for nothing useful.

I was doing an avatar of balance ending once and brought the tome to D50 to gain...

Whatever you do, DON'T build a bridge. Bridge building is the most tedious and unbalanced thing in Adom. I think it was a funny joke implemented by Thomas Biskup. Well, I guess you can build bridges...

A normal win usually takes 5-15 hours, depending how much I bother to scum. Ultra ending takes a bit more, but I've done that in one day, too.

I've heard rumors that drinking from a pool which has the same color as your eyes will have nice effects with high probability. I don't know if it's true or not, but the eye color wouldn't then be...

I think that invisiblity does the trick. I'm not sure about darkness. Personally the dragon turtles are definitely in my top-5 in "most dangerous monsters" and if you don't like gambling, use...

My wish-order is almost always

1-2. SLB and AoLS (Depends on situation. In early game, SLB. If the dwarftown is reached, probably AoLS.)
3. Girlde of Giant Strength
--- GAP ---
4. Spellbooks of...

Being able to cast identify doesn't really help a lot as you will find enough identify scrolls in the game. Being able to identify maybe saves you 1-3 potions of water during the game, which is nice....

If you're level 15, killing the mummy should not be a big deal. Personally I've never had problems with him (the other monsters such as steel horrors are often way more dangerous). If you already...

I sometimes take TH and sometimes I don't take it. I usually find it more enjoyable to play *with* TH simply because I'll end up finding much more useful potions such as water, rings (djinni...
