During the game, when pulling up my character information, I noticed that my base Willpower has dropped from its previous score of 26 to 23. I definitely didn't see any stat loss messages, and I...
I tried several variations, like 3333 at a time, 5555 at a time, 8888 at a time, 20k at a time, and 80k + 20k, in addition to the whole amount at once.
But I think I figured it out. I imagine it...
I converted the Dwarftown altar to Chaotic, used it for a bit, and now am trying to get it back to Neutral. I noticed it was behaving oddly, so I made a backup for experimenting purposes and started...
Hello,
I was wondering if I manually could re-order the list of skills. I'm aware you can quick-mark them, but I prefer to be able to be able to access skills I can't or won't quick-mark in two...
I wrote all this up, then I noticed that the feature was already implemented, but I didn't want this to be a complete waste :-/
Make Pick Pockets a selectable fighting style (perhaps in the same...
This is wonderful news! All I need now is an announcement of a homebrew ADOM DS in the works :-D
If you have been carrying around a huge rock for some reason, you can drop it on the anthole and the hole will stop generating monsters until the rock breaks, though huge rocks are quite rare during...
General tips:
There are some wilderness encounters that you should always try to evade in the early game, and should attempt to escape from immediately if ambushed. For me, these are the lone...
I've recently completed a Dark Elf Thief ultra (YAFVP forthcoming), and I believe that the following tips greatly facilitated my character's survival (I will try to keep spoilers to a minimum):

Archangel, you mentioned that you play NetHack. This patch may be of interest to you:

The patch is called "Death Explore", and as the name suggests, it supposedly...
Hmm, I just did some reading, and it seems that the Dwarven Graveyard level has the same DL as BUGWIL, but without the background corruption. Wouldn't that make the graveyard a much better place for...
Update: I just remembered that a mysterious force would prevent you from kicking an object if you are inside a shop, so I tried it, and the pile of two uncursed hats slid to the east. Presumably, if...
I've seen many references to this item, several saying that it supposedly simplifies the fight on D:50. What exactly does it do? In all the mentions of this item, I found not one explanation of how...
According to the guidebook, it is not possible to travel up from D:48 after unlocking D:49. Yet most of the YAVP normal victory screenshots I find show the player in the wilderness leaving the...
Hopefully, the topic title explains it all: I'm looking for the ideal surface location (or perhaps the DL - I have a few spare ?oPeace and ?oDanger lying around) to drag the Mad Minstrel to for the...
So I had the Unholy Aura corruption, and I told myself I would remove it after clearing out the Maze and the ToEF, but before making a quick stop at Dwarftown. Of course, I forgot, and Waldenbrook...
Aside from using various commands that have the ability to prevent the character from staggering about, such as First Aid, cleaning ears, and chatting, what can one do to deal with confusion and...
I just noticed this:
I saw that Moon Sickle wasn't on that list. Is being able to chaos dip really so good that Moon Sickle is worth holding onto for the entire game? I thought that the Chaos...
Aww, really? *embarrassed*
In all honesty, I haven't perfected the strategy, so it usually ends in an early death, especially for a race/class combination as frail as Dark Elf Thief. Candle...
Spells (all except Teleportation from /oWonder or !oWonder):
Darkness : 19, 7pp (Effectivity: +0)
Knock : 12, 22pp (Effectivity: +0)
Lightning Ball ...
Equipment:
Head : uncursed helm of water breathing [+0, +4] [30s]
Neck : uncursed amulet of speed (+3 spd) [3s]

This is a bit long, so you can just skip to the third paragraph starting with "Most recently" if you like.
Okay, so I started out with the usual routine: buy as many non-cursed large rations as I...
I recently had a very disappointing trip to Darkforge: no metal/hide armor of any kind (just clothes, robes, and leather), and no eternium weapons. This may have been because I was at a fairly low...
