YASD - lvl 14 HEFE vs. Rupert

[gofftc]

The plan was putting on my scale mail of rPoison or learn the spell and finally get into the Hive to solve my food shortage, however...

Rupert basicly guarding the Hive entrance and me being overconfident I thought I could take him.
Oh man did this go wrong.....

First of all, I did'nt wield the protection flail like I do for the +5AC, nor the staff of wizardry.
Second, my brainfart that high enough spellcasting and a scroll of fear might work. (what was I thinking)
Last but not least, me idiot quaffing a speed potion instead of blinking my last scroll away.
Rupert being in bad shape 1-2 more spells or wand zappings would saved my day.


Most of the game I did not loose more than ~ 1/4 health, maybe 1/2 roasting a stone giant.
My 2 rings gave me a total of AC+7, Dex+10, Str+4 and a SInv.
Having Spellcasting at 15 (on) and Conj/Fire at 14/13 (off). Was this a bad idea? I turned it off about lvl 5-6.
Being 4x better than my previous Highscore I dont find really bad decisions in the game (untill the last 2), and off course being XL:11 and

I was cautios and played it slow, someone might see the big holes in my strategy where, please tell me.
-sticky flame rocks (0.7.1)

[mageykun]

Those were some nice rings!

I don't see why you wouldn't want to train conj all the way up- unless you were trying to divert points to spellcasting for more slots. My only real question is why were you lugging around so many spell books? I would have stashed them in the lair or something.

[lucy_ferre]

You could've won if you went all-out when trying to kill Rupert. Haste yourself, confuse him (to keep him from casting), cast sticky flame, and spam your wands. Curare needles are great for crippling uniques, if you find them.

Edit: Fear scrolls don't work on berserk monsters.

[tormodpwns]

Plus fear scrolls are useless in the late game and versus uniques because it checks against MR. Even if you do manage to scare a monster, it will usually recover in just 1-2 turns.

True, never underestimate Rupert. I had a nice HEFE going in the Lair and then out he pops, immediately berserking and hitting me with a +4,+4 Triple Sword of Electrocution. Needless to say, it was a fatal encounter.
