The mere fact that you are complaining here instead of SACCING SOME MORE clearly demonstrates your lack of devotion to your god. Ora et labora, you've got to EARN that black tome.
Should be pointed out that the amount of randomness involved is great. Sometimes you get ~20 points, sometimes ~200 points with the same PC reading the same book. This makes it difficult to do any...
Gold is useless in the ID, so dragon doubling doesn't make any difference.
Good luck doing any kind of stat scumming in (A) 2000 turns, (B) in the ID.
Good learner: I think it can be considered...
The whole concept of some not-so-well-defined "chaotic tactics" being forbidden calls for some kind of "referees". Perhaps a board of "trusted" (haha) players, all from different leagues, who vote...
Cloaks burn no matter what you have. I believe they are handled differently by the game. The bracers were really bad luck, I guess. (Not that you'd be likely to miss a crappy pair of bracers of...
GTB makes summoners, as well as bosses that like to hang around summoners (like the chaos archmage), a nonissue. Never have I felt more accomplished (when it comes to playing ADOM, at least), than...
The darkness in ADOM is clearly some kind of special darkness. Ever since I first encountered it I've wondered how come you can't see out of the darkness. Usually, if you stand in a dark spot and...
So now practically no one got their first win with a wizard, is that it? Well, I did. Candle-born level 50 dark elven wizard called Rilian. I still have the flg and some notes, am too lazy to up it...
This sounds like a simple buffer overrun bug, which usually opens up endless opportunities for exploitation.
Surely the length of the name is not the only relevant factor. It may seem so if you...
Search for 'wizard'.
The shadows they summon don't see invisible, so make sure you are that.
Then, I would just anger the wyrms, force them to move a little, wait for the stairway to clear, and then quickly teleport...
Yeah, I realised a little too late that it has UNIX newlines, so it probably looks nasty in your notepads. Oh well.
Hex editors? Oh dear. If you use Linux (or any *nix), you can just "strings adom > adom_strings.txt", and there won't be any messiness. That leaves you with some "strings" that are not actual...
After having randomly rolled my stats for god knows how long, I decided to give questions a try.
Picked all the Le+ answers.
"Fool! You think you can trick the RNG with your code dived...
@Confucio: he cannot go for an ultra if the purpose is to stay doomed throughout the game. (Chaos gate entry requires that there is no intrinsic dooming.)
Save-scumming?!
That's an interesting interpretation. I wonder what you thought the "don't you ever wash the robe" line meant.
We need to keep this thread alive.

(Wasn't sure about the colour of the robe, might be something else than green.)

That's not so much Sage, but the Linux version of ADOM. AFAIK cannot be fixed.
Did anyone ever wish for sheep on the chaos plane?
Can you have companions in there? Scrolls of familiar summoning? Figurines? Friendly djinni? Wish for friends? What happens if they kill Andor?...
The last two times I've seriously been going for an ultra, I have absent-mindedly shot a fleeing assassin in the assassins' guild.
Hmm. I noticed a while ago that the ratling guardians will run away if you have the unholy aura corruption (and when they stop panicing they'll just stand guard wherever they ended up). Wonder if...
Asher, if you do decide to try playing again, please give the server (see http://www.adom.de/forums/showthread.php?t=493) a try. Would be interesting to see how you play.
Out of that list, I have definitely generated:
Havlor, Vanquisher, Wanderer (unIDed it's just a regular 40s quarterstaff, isn't it?), Black Thumb (just recently for the first time; druid crowning),...
