YASD - DSVM of Kiku - Be very afraid of resistance penalties
Posted: Tuesday, 28th December 2010, 04:21
So I want to post the morgue file but I don't where they are kept. Can anyone help me?
I love demonspawn characters but they are so hard to survive with in the early levels. I tried a venom mage based on a suggestion I found on this board and I finally got one off the ground. Was doing Crypt-5 and I encountered an ancient lich. Three dispel undead spells later, he was gone. I tried to rest to fill my mana and this time a lich entered the room. Fine I said,I just dispelled an ancient lich to death without effort, I'll dispel this one too. I quaffed a magic potion and blasted a dispel. He summoned 5's and they blocked my range. I tried to manouver, he summoned 5's again. I retreated to corridor and faced an ice fiend
Now this time I tried to teleport and just to be sure I wanted to equip my control teleport ring. The problem was, I was wearing a dragon armor and to counter it's cold resistance penalty I was using a randart ring with Ice, the other ring being Ring of Robustness (+8 AC). I stupidly choosed to remove the randart. And the next turn the ice fiend took me from 110 HP to below zero. Ouch! indeed...
