ADOM Ultra-Ultra Competition!

I was thinking it would probably be worth checking to see if Pick Pockets is affected by this mode. PP isn't as good as it used to be, but any extra items would probably be a big help.

PP is a great idea! I think it would really complement few treasures, allowing you to grind a bit for the resources you need. It also might actually make PP useful for a change.

PP seems to be unaffected by the change, though if you don't have the skill at 100, your odds of actually getting an item are pretty pitiful. I tried this with a thief, but it's hard to get anywhere because you can't get any PV. Suppose I should try one of the easier classes rather than thief and farmer

I think I'm going to try a mist elf weaponsmith or duelist, pv issues are covered from the initial equipment, and they both can be strong with very little rng love.

[Soirana]

I don't have time (until weekend at minimum), but if I had I would roll with mindcrafter (something shop fiendly) and try to open HMV, buy up one shop, sell stuff at other (+some gems to keep cash flow going).

Honestly that does not strike as anything interesting.

I think mist elf is a really good choice race wise due to the good starting gear (for melee anyway), at least if you can avoid all of the rock fall traps...

@Soirana Interesting that you would choose mindcrafter, any particular reason why? Also while grinding shops (buying from one and selling to another) seems like it'd be very effective at generating gold, if there's nothing to buy in the shops what's the point? Crowning? Stat training in DT? I'm just curious as to why you'd choose that particular route.

Cause mindcraft works without items?

Shop grind is gold negative, but doing with general stores allows to generate enough items to cover basics.

Speaking of mindcrafters, did the 0 turns mindcraft bug get fixed? I haven't played them in a long time due to that bug.

Fixed since r65.

Oh cool! One of my favorite classes

I noticed these games ended up in a separate "Custom hall of fame" not viewable from the main menu.
I wonder what highscore goes towards opening bug temple ... all highscores together or one highscore with 100 entries.
