0.29 Tournament Character #3
0.29 Tournament Attempts: Part 3-1
I begin by setting a limit to 4 for Armor training, and emphasize Fighting, Dodging, Stealth, and Evocations training. Upon finding a short sword on D:1, I turn on Short Blades training. I find an armour shoppe on D:1, which contained the hat of the Alchemist and a randart +1 scale mail {Fly, Int+3, Dex+2}. Upon reaching D:4, I read-id scrolls of teleportation, identify, summoning, poison, blinking, noise, and butterflies and identify potions of ambrosia and heal wounds. I also find that the level was host to an ossuary, and get hit by a bolt of light from a wand, which nearly kills me and confuses me and forces me to quaff my potion of ambrosia to survive the ordeal. I get the wand of light, and find the ossuary. I identify a potion of attraction and clear the ossuary using the starting wand of flame and charming. I get some scrolls and potions, and exit the ossuary. I identify potions of curing, brilliance, and resistance, and read-id scrolls of vulnerability, torment, and fear. Exploring the rest of D:4 revealed the entrance to the Temple, and I enter it after using my wand of paralysis to deal with two ogres and a gnoll. I decide to worship Ashenzari and begin training Throwing with a skill limit of 4.
D:5 was host to a water moccasin upon entering, forcing me to use a wand of paralysis to deal with it. An encounter with a scorpion on that level compels me to use a wand of light to kill it. I read-id scrolls of amnesia and enchant weapon that I use on my short sword, and expend my wand of paralysis to kill an ogre. I also encounter Duvessa and Dowan, and use my wand of light to take them both out. One of them had a dagger of electrocution, which I enchant up to +4 using my scrolls of enchant weapon. I run into Blork the orc, which I charm to have him be killed by the gnoll and ogre. After charming the ogre to kill the rest of the horde, Grinder shows up in an attempt to ruin my day. I use a wand of light to blind her and finish her off with the dagger of electrocution. I then curse my helmet to get Companions and Evocations boosts. I set off an alarm trap on D:6, forcing me to retreat and reenter the level in another staircase. In the process, I curse my dagger of electroduction and get potions of flight and mutation identified. I run into Edmund again, and decide not to take any chances and use a wand of light on him and finish him with by stabbing him. I end up using a potion of heal wounds and a potion of curing to deal with two sky beasts. I end up using my wands of light and iceblast to deal with a group of electric eels, and decide to buy the randart scale mail to reduce the amount of damage that I take. I kill the troll with the wand of light, and run into problems with a swarm of yaks and an electric eel. I expend my wand of charming, and quaff 3 potions of curing and a potion of resistance to survive the assault. I curse my amulet of guardian spirit in order to gain the ability to see invisible. D:7 gives me Joseph to deal with, who I take out with a wand of light.
On D:8, I curse my cloak to give it Ranged Combat and Element bonuses. Maurice is on the level, who goes down to a wand of light and stabbings. I take his wand of paralysis, and use it to save myself from being killed by a bunch of slime creatures. I expend my wand of iceblast to take out two orc priests, curse my cloak to give it Ranged Combat and Beguiling bonuses. Grum the Hunter also happens to be on the level and goes down to a wand of light. I next curse my ring of dexterity to grant it Introspection and Evocation bonuses. D:9 had Erica, who gets killed by a wand of light and stabbing, and the entrance to the Lair. I finish D:10 and D:11 without incident.
The next goal for this character is to clear the Lair of Beasts and D:12. However, Lair is going to be difficult, as I have no poison resistance. I am particularly nervous about hydras. If one wakes up at the wrong time, it’s basically game over for the character, since I am playing it as a stabber.
Below is my current character’s status. As always, I am open to any tips or suggestions.
