YASD: TrAr. Nemelex was fun

I start to love Nemelex. Foxfire with 7 Yellow wasps killed Minotaur easily (I was losing potions to Wand of Cold and did not have deck of destruction). Killing Hydra with Deal Four from plain deck of destruction was unusual experience. Tomb from Deal Four from Deck of Battle vs another Hydra was not that fun: I got Tomb, but fortunately there was an exit and I called some legendary summons to save me (Labyrinth was in LoS so I did not want to escape). I did not know how Swap works (which I had after Stack Five) - I expected to have a dialog for selecting a monster to swap positions, so ended in the middle of war dogs/crocodile crowd. Fortunately I had ?Blink. Soon I had another Hydra with only one space betwen us and no way to retreat so I decided the only way to kill it was Deal Four from deck of Battle (no destruction decks currently). I cast the Hydra into Abyss and recruited a Tengu, very lucky.
I am not sure what to train now and I don't know why I learned Blink/Repel Missiles before sacrificing the book. Mottle Dragon from Volcano did not leave a hide so I am very low on both AC and EV. Skeleton Warrior with reaching weapon in a corridor helped me to defeat a group of Sheeps/Yaks but next group will kill me.
Please advise.

Re: CiP: TrAr. Nemelex is fun

I think I will use darkness cloak. I have never used one and it should be fun.
I am spamming deck of dungeon when there are no monsters around, the deck contains almost useless cards but at least it can grant me piety. I don't want to disable sacrifices for the deck, I am not high on piety (Deal 4 and Stack 5 cost too much piety).
I somehow missed that deck is destroyed after Deal Four :( I will use it less often.

Re: CiP: TrAr. Nemelex is fun

Also be careful using Deal Four on decks you've already drawn from. If there aren't at least 4 cards left you'll get a card from the deck of punishment.

Re: CiP: TrAr. Nemelex is fun

Personally I'd start by turning off Fighting for now (needs a bit more UC and Evocation), then I'd spam the Dungeon decks in the hope of getting something useful in combat. Be careful though, if you do this without a wand of disintegration you might end up in trouble if a Statue is created.

Re: CiP: TrAr. Nemelex is fun

Pack of Death Yaks was scaring. I evoked ornate deck of summoning (got Yellow Wasps) and then evoked my rage amulet (survived with 30hp). Now I realize it was not wise.

My mercenary Tengu grows stronger from kills, now it is displayed as extremely dangerous to me :) I was really lucky to get it since it is the only mercenary who can fly so I can safely use Water card.

I will train traps up to about 7, then Dodging. I can equip large shield, I think I will use it in Dungeon despite it is at 0 now. Lair has open terrain so the shield will not help much.

Re: CiP: TrAr. Nemelex is fun

You should probably train shields skill at least a little before equipping a large shield. Also, waiting until D to use it is pretty pointless.

Re: CiP: TrAr. Nemelex is fun

I underestimated Acid Blob. Again I forgot about decks, it could be easily killed by summoning/destruction. When I was down to 12hp I took a "careful" look at my inventory and found no items could save me. I guess I have played too many games where decks were useless so it affected my way of thinking.
I was upset by death of my Tengu from reading Immolation spell (he became hostile) and by getting herbivore 1 from contamination, I didn't realize invisibility can make you instantly glowing if you had grey contamination before evoking it.
Though I really liked killing several Elephants while being invisible, that felt unusual for a melee character :)

Re: CiP: TrAr. Nemelex is fun

Acid blobs are endgame enemies. Fast, ranged, high damage, decent HP, corrodes your stuff and eats items. They are also especially dangerous to trolls and other species with highly restricted armor slots because acid does more damage if you're not wearing much. You should have immediately teleported and left the level. High end jellies are usually only behind doors in Lair, so you usually get a warning. In your case it spawned from the Slime stairs, so you didn't. :(

Yes, thank you, now I clearly see it was even worse play on my side than I thought before. I don't know why it happened, I almost died to a hydra on previous floor and had to use deal four of destruction deck against Black Mamba so I am sure I was not overconfident. Perhaps it is related to my mood, I often play recklessly when I am frustrated. I should learn to suspend playing in this case.

Re: YASD: TrAr. Nemelex was fun

For future reference, attacking jellies in melee is usually a bad idea when you have alternatives.

Re: YASD: TrAr. Nemelex was fun

My solution to Acid blobs is to spam decks of Summoning at them. They totally deserve it.

Re: YASD: TrAr. Nemelex was fun

I started another TrMo game and I like TrMo better now. It is stronger in the beginnning and I don't care about wonders deck any more (I got non-wonders despite sacrificing lots of food in previous game). It is very nice to have 4 stars of piety at D7.

Return to YASD! YAVP! and characters in progress too
