I was doing so well. :( Decided to lean on that wand of disintegration for a life saver as I didn't have many other options. I hadn't used it before, was hoping they had a charge left lol. I should've never let my health get that low but, it was one of those situations where he was almost dead and I was at half health and my armor/battle axe pretty much screwed me over in the exchanging of blows.

Re: YASD: Wand fail

Condolences.

I notice, though, that you had an identified wand of haste. You should have used it when you realized you were in trouble. Hasting yourself (or drinking a speed potion) is one of the best things you can do when things start going wrong...

Re: YASD: Wand fail

Yeah. I should've. But it was a lone creature of something I faced 3 at once and won with less than 1/4th health loss. I got cocky.

Return to YASD! YAVP! and characters in progress too
