    Default YAVP (Gnomish Assassin)

    My first win as both an assassin and a gnome. Starsign was dragon, which I figured was decent for the class, but the kicker was that I got "Your long lost brother showed up" along with it, which always make the game more interesting thanks to the extra dungeon features.

    Early game was relatively straightforward. Did Terinyo and bandit town (outlaw first kill) poked my head into SMC but couldn't see the stairs early and was levelling pretty fast so I got out. Killed the Jharod for healing skill, did part of PC but there was a river on PC4 that I didn't want to cross without swimming. Got pre-crowned with Crown of Leadership at a lawful altar on D2, and found a RoDS sitting on the ground in the ToHK, so I saved Khelly. Finished ratling + Gaab'Baay by level ~25 and was crowned with lightning and the (useless) ancient claymore.

    Corruption and food turned out to be a bit of a problem this game. I was playing very slow, doing a lot of experimenting with smithing, herb farming was very tedious without herbalism, and spent a long time searching for the boar skull, and didn't get my SLBs till day 87. So I crossed day 90 before hitting the ToEF. Didn't turn out to be too much of a problem, I had the SoCR from Khelly and the dwarf guy, and did the Rift midgame to pick up a few more. Food was a nuisance until almost the end of the game... I was wearing a lot of artifacts and using a ring of invisibility on occasion, which, combined with having a limited supply of stomafilla, meant I had to do a bit of harvesting as I went along.

    Hit two greater vaults in CoC. First was undead, which I avoided (one of the artifacts was the book... big deal, the other turned out to be hammer of the gods, I guess). The second was a giant vault on D45. Picked up about 5 corruptions, Preserver, Serpent's Bite, and probably 15 points of strength--pretty good trade I suppose. Once I had those artifacts, the rest of the game was pretty smooth sailing. Picked up BoW on D49, D50 was easy. Andy was a pushover after I hit him with a PoCR.

    It worked for Ankh-Morpork
    ADOM Guides - whatever you wanted to know about playing a certain class, but have been afraid to ask!

    Check out my youtube channel to see my ADOM videos, including a completed playthrough of the game. I try to give instructions, so if you want to see some place you haven't been before and get some hints on how to deal with it, this might help! There's also some other games featured there that you might find interesting.
