_Something appears before you!
_i - a bloodstained centaur barding
_Wear which item? (? for menu, Esc to quit)
_You finish putting on the -2 centaur barding of the Demon Prince {rElec rC+ rN+ MR- Slay-4}.

The cloak of everything. :lol:

Code:: the cursed -3 cloak "Frytrut" {+Fly rElec rPois+ rF- Regen+ Str-4 Int-4 Dex+4 Stlth+}

Okay, it does not have an opinion on rC and rN.

Code:: the -3 pair of gloves of Hiwaf {rF++ rC+ MR++ Dex-3 Curse}

The +11 spear "Sarcophage" {elec, rF++, Dex+2}
Found on D:5

The +9 dagger of Caabliph {elec, +Rage, rF++, rC+, MR++}

Best blowgun ever

... Oh yes, it's a blowgun

Code:: the +8 blowgun of Saltpetre {speed, +Blink rElec rPois rF+}.

Code:: The +3 giant club "Skullcrusher" {speed, Str +7}

is well known as a very good weapon, and even giant spiked clubs of speed have been seen and mentioned here before.

But look at this incredible weapon catsarecewl had in his recent game:

Code:: the +11 giant spiked club of Equilibrium (weapon) {speed, +Inv rPois+ rC+ MR++ Dex-4}

Did you ever see a weapon like this? Oh, and he was a proud owner of a +9 antimagic GSC as well.

My latest achievement:

Code:: y - the ring of Meggaib (right hand) {+/* Tele rF- MR- Int+3}

Oh, I'm sure I'll wear this ALL the time... :roll:

Edit, and counterpoint:

Code:: the +4 pair of gloves "Shyfa" {rF++ Regen+ MP+9}

...if only I wasn't playing a TROLL.

Okay, just one more:

Code:: You finish putting on the cursed -4 robe of the Vaults {Slay -6}

Put on which piece of jewellery? (? for menu, Esc to quit)
You feel stronger.
_l - the ring of Xom's Reproof (left hand) {rC+ Str+3 SInv Stlth+}

---

on level 9 of the dungeon, first ring of the game lol, playing a demonspawn with green slimy scales so its all useful

-- EDIT- followed minutes later by this on L:1.. not game breaking but dang good xD
You finish putting on the +7 chain mail of Eptaraga {rF+}.
-
edit2- and a +6 vampiric scimitar (weapon) Okawaru gifted it to you on level 10 of the Dungeon. lol, + (You can steal the life force of defeated enemies.
When hurt, damage is shared between your health and your magic reserves. mutations) rng is showing me mercy for 100 promising char splats - http://crawl.akrasiac.org/rawdata/Gakhan/Gakhan.txt
--
and the +8 hand crossbow of the Onslaught {penet, MR++}. Okawaru gifted it to you on level 5 of the Lair of Beasts.

Code:: Hand weapons D - the +11 trident of Odghisk (weapon) {flame, rElec rF+} (You acquired it on level 3 of the Lair of Beasts) It emits flame when wielded, causing extra injury to most foes and up to double damage against particularly susceptible opponents. It protects you from fire. It insulates you from electricity.

What the hell; my first acquire gave me something awesome for a change.

Hehe, I haven't had good luck with acquisition since my very first win where I got that +4/+7 Quickblade of Electrocution that carried me through the game back in 0.8. Maybe this character is onto something (though a Pain brand would have been even better- I'm a polearm necromancer).

Code:: the +10 plate armour of Plasticity {+Fly rElec rC+ rCorr Slay-5}

Found on lair 5. So close to being worth it on a HaFi.

Code:: the +13 ice dragon armour of Liberalism {rF- rC++ MR+}

I love Liberalism

found this in a shop on elf:2 for 550 gold-the amulet of the Four Winds {Clar rN+ MR+++}- definitely wearing this

--
also bought this axe on Orc:2 for like 350 gold - +2 battleaxe of Fragile Peace {drain, rC++ MR++}- lol on a GrFi, both are helping now for sure in elf

found the +6 greatsling of Twimp {speed, rN+ Stlth++}. on the same char, not training slings and the +6 arbalest "Hellfire" {hellfire, rF++ rC- MR+}. not using crossbows xD

Hellfire and Four Winds are Fixedarts, Four Winds is absolutely an awesome find. That Battleaxe is pretty nice though, quite fond of drain on cleave.

From my most recent (DDNe)

Code:: r - +1 pair of gloves of Narcissism {Str+3 Int+8 Dex-2}

Was ridiculously helpful in getting back into heavy armours after learning my full spell-set.

Ended up wearing

Code:: Q - +6 scale mail of Summer {Regen+ Str+4 Int+5}

which was pretty amazing even without Regen actually working for a DD

I think nowadays randarts can get MR+++ so does that mean Four Winds was moved to unrandarts?

+8 executioner's axe "Viraodyg" {speed, +Blink rElec rC+ Dex+1 Stlth--} -- You took it off an ironheart preserver on level 5 of the Vaults. -- and my Axe skill is at 26 so hell yeah

the +9 hammer of Conscience (weapon) {crush, +Inv MR+ Str+2}

Found outside Crazy Yiuf's hut. It's such a temptation for a Spriggan, to go around bashing heads in. But first, Evocations...

Code:: the -4 pair of boots "Zifeikua" {rF- Int+3 Dex+11}

Found it in a shop in Elf 2. I bought a pair of gloves not 5 minutes before finding this item which left me 100g short. A summoned bone dragon took me down to 1 HP before I finally came up with the money.

Code:: g - +20 gold dragon armour of Khufiun {rPois rF+ rC+ Str+5 Int+3}

I'm curious, has anyone ever found better armor than this?

By the way, here's a brief rundown of how it all went down. I was also cast into the abyss and barely escaped before finding that armor shop. Came up with the gold from an acquirement scroll. It's been one hell of an incredibly intense run so far!

Code:: 41204 | Elf:2 | Bought a +2 pair of gloves of dexterity for 279 gold pieces 41233 | Elf:2 | Found Kiad's Armour Boutique. 41243 | Elf:2 | Noticed Jorgrun 41256 | Elf:2 | Killed Jorgrun 41502 | Elf:2 | Found Poebatuk's General Store. 41502 | Elf:2 | Noticed Frances 41554 | Elf:2 | Noticed Frances 41554 | Elf:2 | Frances changed into Frances the ghost moth 41556 | Elf:2 | Noticed a bone dragon 41558 | Elf:2 | Killed Frances the ghost moth 41564 | Elf:2 | HP: 5/140 [bone dragon[the player character] (22)] 41564 | Elf:2 | HP: 1/140 [bone dragon[the player character] (4)] 42311 | Swamp:1 | Entered Level 1 of the Swamp 42311 | Swamp:1 | Noticed Aizul 42323 | Swamp:1 | Killed Aizul 42394 | Swamp:1 | Received a gift from Nemelex Xobeh 42612 | Swamp:1 | You fall through a shaft! 42882 | Swamp:2 | Gained mutation: You can breathe flames.

Code:: <MarvinPA> _p - the +20 gold dragon armour of Makhleb's Envy {rPois rF+ rC+ Acc+3 Dam+6} the +22 crystal plate armour "Wompoate" {rPois rF+ rN+ Stlth++} The +14 pearl dragon armour of Xom's Favour {rElec rF++ rN+ MR++ Dex+2 Acc+6}

Ha! I was thinking it was a big deal

Code:: the +21 crystal plate armour of Wasted Space (rElec rF+ rC+ Dex+3}

From one of sage's games.

ClawlessVictory wrote:Ha! I was thinking it was a big deal

It's absolutely in the top 1% of all artefact armors, so yeah, it's a big deal. There have been some others which are comparable and slightly better, but anything at that level is already pretty absurd so slightly better or worse doesn't mean much

I can go one higher than Wompoate: +23 crystal plate armour of the Dwarven Hall {rPois}. Only one ego though. From http://crawl.berotato.org/crawl/morgue/ ... 034935.txt

Code:: -2 leather armour "Ysig Ecw" {rF++ rC- rCorr} (curse)

Yes, I am using it. Found after clearing Lair 7 as Mu.

Code:: h - 1 gold the cursed -5 pair of gloves "Caeg" {+Fly rN+ MR++ Regen+ Int-2}

-5 hurts, but for this price, MR++/Regen makes it usable imho

I disagree with that shopkeeper too - 1 gold for -7 AC is too much, he should pay me to wear something like that.

Btw it's nice to enter with 10 AC in a Bailey on D:9, and exit from it with 35 AC. Even if you're a small halfing.

+13 crystal plate armour of Zyegg {+Blink MP+9 Str+2 SInv}

Best artefact, great timing.

Code:: the amulet of the Hare {rMut rF+ rN+ MR+ MP+9 Str-2} (You took it off a vault guard on level 5 of the Vaults)

Unfortunately it made

Code:: the ring of Suspected Treachery {rPois rF+ rN+ MP+9}

almost useless as I am Mu with rF+++ in that amulet.

Code:: The cursed +11 claymore of Califormia (Str+4, Dex+2, Int+6, freeze, curse)

Not as good as the ones showed before, but this was my first source of resist fire for my mummy.

Code:: 25926 | D:12 | Bought the +15 gold dragon armour of Iqesask {rElec rPois | rF+ rC+ Regen+} for 1997 gold pieces

I am spectating a player with this:

Code:: 4256 | D:8 | Identified the +14 large shield "Osmugec" {-Cast rPois rF+ Dex+4} (You found it on level 8 of the Dungeon)

Tired of crawl's shit throughout the day

Code:: s - ring of Pessimism {Wiz rElec Str+3 Slay+6}

I earn my opus of pessimism.

The best part is what kind of character this ring was found on. (VS with a short blade of speed. gg no re)

+2 gold dragon armour of Divine Compulsion {rElec rPois rF+ rC+ Regen+ MP+9 Str+2 Dex-5}

Not the best armour I've ever seen, but I didn't know where else to post it.. I wonder what Okawaru is trying to tell me.

Code:: P - +7 plate armour of Cunt {Slay+4}

His previous gift was pretty good, though

Code:: o - the +8 crystal plate armour of the Purple Skies {+Blink MR++}

Code:: _You finish putting on the +2 chain mail of the Heron {rCorr Str-3 Dex+7 Slay-6}. _Enter note: are you fucking serious

absolutely disgusting

doubleposting because this thing is just absolutely the worst

Code:: _D - the +9 scale mail of Hinasar {rN+ Str+4 Dex+3 Slay-5}

worst is not just "oh man look at how useless this is"

this thing is the worst because it's actually really good
and then you have slay-5 hahaha fuck you

Most unappropriate name ever ! Will my Mu use it ?

Code:: +4 gold dragon armour of Limitation {rPois rF+ rC+ rN+ Str+8}

the +10 whip of Ewniugapt {freeze, rC- Int+4 Dex+10}

Found on level 4 of the Dungeon. After that, i wield-identified a -3 cursed blowgun... and I don't even have a ?removecurse yet.

Crawl was taunting me with MR+ artefacts for a while (having only MR+ in Vaults is not fun especially when there is a Deep Elf Sorcerer in LoS right after entering it). I seriously considered using those as heavy AC pure UC character

Code:: +2 buckler of the Special Gods {rF+ rC+ MR+ Slay-5} (You found it in a labyrinth) cursed -4 chain mail of Blak {rPois rC+ MR+} (You found it in a labyrinth) cursed -4 pair of gloves of the Arcane {rF+ MR+ MP-9 Int-3 Dex+2} (1 gold)

but fortunately found

Code:: the +1 chain mail of Hadjma (worn) {rF+ MR+ Int+2 Dex+4} (You found it on level 5 of the Shoals)

and

Code:: the +1 helmet of Gujeut (worn) {-Cast rElec MR+ Stlth+} (You acquired it on level 1 of the Vaults)

The latter was acquired from a scroll which was in a trove.

Code:: 43863 | Vaults:1 | Found a portal to a secret trove of treasure. 43904 | Vaults:1 | You paid a toll of 18 potions of curing to enter a treasure trove 43905 | Trove | Entered a treasure trove 43917 | Trove | Got a bound lead ring 43921 | Trove | Got a translucent cloak 43970 | Vaults:1 | Identified the +0 cloak of Boom {Int+2} (You found it in a treasure trove) 43993 | Vaults:1 | Identified the ring of Doaptiung {Ice Str+4} (You found it in a treasure trove) 44005 | Vaults:1 | Got a spiked helmet 44016 | Vaults:1 | Identified the +1 helmet of Gujeut {-Cast rElec MR+ Stlth+} (You acquired it on level 1 of the Vaults)

That buckler really seems of the same set of Bloax's chainmal!

nago wrote:That buckler really seems of the same set of Bloax's chainmal!

I had Fighting 15 and UC 19 when I found the buckler so I used fsim to see how bad it really is. I tested with -5 ring of slaying and it resulted in 30+% damage loss and it should be even worse with buckler

love it when I find a good one-hander and its like "fuck yeah I can use a shield this run"

Code:: the +12 eveningstar of Currency {flame, rPois Int+2}

The cursed -5 robe of Misfortune (worn) {-Cast Contam *Tele EV-4 Str-2 INT-2 Dex-2 Stlth-- Curse}

Thomus wrote:

Ah yes, the good old robe of Misfortune. The item that makes every young Crawler realize that the devs hate them and everything they love in their lives.

my character is a DsSu, i find an artefact trident on D2 but i can't wield it because it's holy.

..ok crap, well, here's an early altar to TSO (more stuff i can't use) i'll just leave it here so maybe he'll like me or something.

later on this was found in crazy yiuf's cottage:

none of these is individually amazing, but woah, i even left on the ground a few shining hammers...

i don't even know which to use because 3/4 are actually very good options.

Illumination confirmed.

You can use one for max Int boost, another for max rF++ and third for rElec/MP. Pick them all

Once I found the

Code:: The cursed -6 helmet of Your Incompetence {curse, Str -6, Int +1, Dex -9, rF-, rC-, rP+, contam, -cTele, slay -7}

And I wear-ID'd it.

:cry:

Int +1

At least you learned from the experience.
