Andrion the human bard, gate closer.

[blunk]

This game was almost done but I had to take a few weeks of break until I decided to finish up today.

So, before finishing up I kept thinking of some lyrics, "I wish I was a bit taller, I wish I was a baller ..." , not my kind of music but for this character .... yes.
I really appreciated that the game plays in game music according to instrument used, that was a really nice touch.

This human bard started out with crappy stats, I think random bard skills were: alertness, appraising, athletics, cooking, fletchery, metallurgy, survival.
I had enough Le for literacy at start, infact that was probably my best stat.
Starsign dragon means wisdom is extra crappy (-5).

I did however manage to get through smc/ud and found a short sword of devastation which was super in early-midgame.
Swapped to Big Punch and stuck to that for the rest of the game.
I screwed up quest to kill hotzen plots since pet got the kill (ant queen was pretty nice).

After some trixy stuff with beggars and what now I got L+ and crowned with whirlwind...
Was struggling some with damage output, managed to do tohk and went to ice queen.
In fgjc2 came the big drop, I found a wand of wishing with 4 charges!

I got:
aols (for khelavaster)
find weakness, archery, concentration
girdle of giant strength

This changed the rest of the game.

With crown of fire Toef wasn't hard.
I got a Ring of djinni summoning from potion of exchange in d8, used wish #6 for books of acid ball.
I think I got true aim in fgjc5 great red vault (with one red wyrm).
I got another Ring of djinni summoning from casino, used wish #7 on d50 for wand of destruction.
I used boar to some extent but left it after air temple, I wanted some exp dammit.

Found robes of resistance as random drop in mana temple!

Somewhere between casino and Coc I got hit by a ghost king and almost died, I had a decent stack of potion of youth but I didn't know that age lost me soo much temp stat, which is almost impossible to regain at those stat levels *grumble*.
Now I truly know to beware ghosts, fear of death by age is one thing but stat loss, NO WAY!
Despite this I got some really nice stats which were back to full (and maybe some past potential) with the lvl 50 +6 to all stat bonus.

D49: serpents bite.

Gear set below as I was geared on d50, until then I mostly used cloak of invis and ring of ice.

I skipped mino maze, rift or high danger R dungeons.

How did you get so much +str? I've found that past maybe the 30s or whatever giants don't give me shit, not even greater titan corpses, and i have only a slight chance from dark orc corpses.

How did you get so much +str? I've found that past maybe the 30s or whatever giants don't give me shit, not even greater titan corpses, and i have only a slight chance from dark orc corpses.

Potential str and saving up pogas/str potions are part of it.

After finishing this game I checked my FLG-files and this was a new record in regards to both raw str and str with eq.
Getting past 30 isnt too hard, getting to 35-40 isn't too hard (unless you play elf) 40+ requires some luck, this bard had 53 natural str, +12 from girdle and +5 from gauntlets which is extraordinary.

I had one log at lvl 19 saved where this character had 21 str (none from eq).

I do it something like this:
1. Get up to 18 beeing strained/very strained, this is generally done in ud and other early dungeons but with low str even later.
In this time I also try and push athletics a lot (if I have it).
2. potions of potential str, how many I find in early/midgame is pretty important and entirely luck based.
3. dig all "lich graves", generally for some extra stat potions, again luck based (with blessed undead slaying ammo this isn't too dangerous).
4. Banshee lvl, eat only str corpses if you have potentials, otherwise leave until after TOEF.
5. I try to be very careful in fire vaults not to allow mobs to destroy potions (or other items), relying on positioning, ranged combat, tagging and invis if available.
The extra amount not burned up in the 2 red vaults I did this game is quite a lot of stuff (again str pots still depends on luck to drop)
6. After casino I return to finish ice queen quest to get the 2 str where I may or may not have maxed str potential.
At this time I drink all poga's found and all other non-potential potions.
Normally I'm at 25-30 at Casino, ice queen is +2, pogas +5 (sometimes more), pure str potions (blessed) +2 each.

So basically I slowly build up until Casino and then boost all I can.

Also note as bard I got +6 to all stats at lvl 50 so without that I'd have 47, still very high.
Character also had food preservation and 100 athletics, I seem to recall that I found several potential str potions past casino and this helped.
