4th win - Human Healer!

[Guru]

Hi folks!

I'm back, after a year's break.. And I just got my 4th win

After a promising character (L20 Gnomish Priest) got lost due to a Floating Eye/Strength of Atlas combo (Got paralyzed and then crushed by my loot :P), I was eager to get my revenge on Adom!

And I got it in the unlikeliest of places, a random character Human Healer!

It's not too much to say about this game, other than that healer's still are incredibly weak, and Humans are very boring... Got Crowned Lawful with Robes of Resistance though, those are pretty neat.

I found a lot of wishes in this game though, as you'll see by my .FLG, I still got 4 wishes left, in addition to a PoCC and a SoCR. I robbed a ring shop for three rings of Djinni Summoning, that should explain it I used a wish on Dodge actually, but that's probably not worth it, didn't get to max it out...

Another thing, I tried my hands on Dragon Gold Doubling for the first time in this game. Found two lesser Dragon Vaults, one white and one red. I must say the White Dragon Vault was a LOT easier than the Red one, but the Great Red Wyrm dropped a Wand of Wishing with 3 wishes, a nice reward Doubling was very effective, but I had nothing to use the gold on, training for a couple of millions with Garth (or what's his name) didn't reap any effect.

I think I'm ready to perhaps attempt an Ultra Ending, just had to get back into ADOM first, it takes a massive amount of information and knowledge to actually get through this game!

PS: I only got about 9 mill. in score for this, does anyone know what may be the reason? Perhaps it was the 14 (I think) divine interventions? Or falling from grace from the Cat Lord?

PPS: He's called Confucius because first I completely forgot to visit the Pyramid :P And then I thought my first kill was an Orc, I had even written it down, but it was something else, I still don't know what (got the skill though, probably a Scorcher or something)

Here's my .FLG:

[Roarke]

Great job on this win! Anything at all give you much trouble?

[Guru]

Thanks Roarke!

This was my first run through ToEF without any Fire Blanket, so I lost a LOT of good items there, and all of my pickaxes/wands of digging.. But ACW went down pretty easily to Frost Bolts (I got from Guth-Alaak). I had pretty high willpower throughout the game too, that helped.

Nuurag-Vaarn was difficult as always, I had only one source of death ray resistance (Amulet), my bracers of resistance got dissolved by a Baby Dragon literally the level before Mana Temple. And because I hadn't got Ancient Mummy Wrapping, I didn't see him initially (Used some rings of the clear mind instead of Master Cat). After I realised it, he went down eventually to arrows of Slaying (I had found a bundle of 20).

Lastly, I met a lot of Emperor Liches in this game, but didn't fight any (I've killed a couple in earlier games, definitely NOT worth it). (6(?) in a Greater Undead Vault, and 3-4 besides. I ended up wearing the Amulet of Death Resistance all the time, to avoid sudden, unforeseen death.

Other than that, not too much trouble, to be honest, you get used to it after a while, it's getting easier and easier (luckily)

[Roarke]

Yeah, Greater Undead Vaults are not to be messed with. I think I've only ever killed one Emperor Lich, and he sure made me pay for it.
