Huh? Of course it gives unfair advantage, the biggest unfair advantage possible... in practice it makes your character immortal. The only 100% fair way to play is:
- no cheats
- no save scumming...

I'm not even sure if there are greater vaults with ogres (relatively weak monsters after all). There are GV with giants, but ogres? Anyway, I had a similiar situation once, when I stepped on a...
If you have Wand of Trap Creation you can use it to create teleportation traps on both sides.
You need Alert and Miser to get Treasure Hunter. There is no point in upgrading listening, it trains itself and is not as valuable as healing or herbalism. If you like elves maybe try High Elf...
IMO with weak characters (mindcrafters etc) early in the game it's better not to open locked door if you don't have too (explosion traps). Also if there are ants/bees on the level and your character...
If merchants would have higher shop generation, it would be a nice class. Now I choose it only for challenge.
Don't choose class without healing skill if you don't like to die early. I think the best combination for you would be dwarven priest - healing skill, detect item status, herbalism, strong but good...
I meant watch out for unnatural aging if you are orc/troll because of their short lifespan. Domming/cursing is bad for every race of course....
Another idea would be monsters which can merge creating one moster, but 2x more powerful. Slime daemons perhaps?
Yet another idea - a monster, which when "killed" splits into 2 slightly weaker...
It would be cool if baby dragons have a small chance to summon mom :P
You hit the black baby dragon
Black baby dragon cries *mommy!*
You hear a thundering voice "Leave my son alone!" Suddenly a...
If you have pools availabale in Darkforge forget scumming ID, it may take eons. Drinking from pools in Darkforge for a wish is probably the easiest way to get AoLS. But be preapared for cursing,...
I'm not sure if people would like it, but I'm a fan of Quake, so I would welcome fantasy-style Quake monsters, especially Shambler (huge, furry monster casting lightning bolts) and Fiend (a fast...
jade-encrusted harp
-------------------------------- The Harp of Madness --------------------------------
Weight: 35s
When used in melee combat it grants a -5 bonus to hit and causes 1d2...
No, I think permacurse would make it to annoying even for monks/beastfigters. But I think you shouldn't be able to take off gauntlets if your weapon/shield is cursed (and Persu Uegl autocurses holded...
------ sticky eternium gauntlets "Persu Uegl" (-1, -5) [+4, +4] -----
Weight: 5s
When worn it modifies DV by +4 and PV by +4.

I wouldn't recommend trying to precrown on PC:5, unless the altar is very close to the stairs or you have invisibility and teleportation (which rarely is the case at this stage of the game). In...
In ADOM non-hostile monsters can leave a dungeon with you.
My roguelike playing time:
ADOM -- 95%
DoomRL -- 4%
Rogue, Angband, Zangband, TOME, Nethack, Crawl, Berserk!, Dwarf Fortress -- 1%
Nice bow..
Doomed intrinsic. Of course this is a bad thing and you should try to get rid of this as soon as possible.
Yeah, I play from time to time, and I do many breaks while playing. I'm not a very fast player, I don't play ADOM for 12 hours non-stop. I don't understand why some people consider less saving as...
This is my first win with non-spellcaster character (previous wins: dwarven priest, gnome wizard, gnome elementalist, gray elf wizard).
In the carpenter dungeon fast precrowning (Ironfists, yay!)...
Only wild animals can be tamed with music, so it wouldn't work.
I'm against "hard" restrictions, like wizards not allowed to wear an armor. However I think casting spells in things like full plate mail should be harder/slower (but not impossible). Casting spells...
A guy in high school told me about this game, it was 1998 or 1999 I think, but I can't remember exactly.
I managed to win 4 times during 10 years, not bad huh? ;)
