[Lyrick]

  Code:

+4 ring mail "Qilead" {rElec rF++ rC+}

Not too shabby

[Sandman25]

  Code:

the amulet of the Prince of Darkness {Clar Str-3 Dam-3}

Of course I am with Ashenzari

[tasonir]

You finish putting on the cursed -4 plate armour of Wrong Decisions {rC+ Stlth--}.

The name is just perfect. Sure, it's got a resist, but that's pretty bad.

[duvessa]

thanks for finding the thread for me, sorry about creating the new one. Anyways, there were some critics, but I honestly think this is good.

-3 ring mail {rF+ rC+ rN+ MR str+1}

Sure it would need a better base type/enchantment to be the best, but I have a hard time saying 4 resists is not a notable randart

[tasonir]

It had 5 positive egos, this one has 1 and a negtive one. Granted I didn't say it's amazing, and I don't think I even wore it, but having 4 good resists is notable. Interesting is probably a better word than good...it makes you wish it had just gotten a decent ac roll

[Alarkh]

The ring "Ratwiw" {rF+ rC+ Int+2 SInv}, on level 4 of the dungeon.
Let's not die stupidly with this beauty :p.

[mopl]

  Code:

ring of Chal {rF+ rC+ rN+ Dam+4}

[Hirsch I]

is this thread is now "all artifacts you find"?

[Sandman25]

+5 pair of gloves "Ralez" (worn) {Dex+2 Int+3}
(You found it on level 5 of the Dungeon)

[Sprucery]

I would drool over +5 gloves even if I found them on D:27...

[eeviac]

J - the +11,+9 claymore "Boodgh" (weapon) {chaos, rC+ rN+ MR+}

Xom is a total bro

[Sandman25]

J - the +11,+9 claymore "Boodgh" (weapon) {chaos, rC+ rN+ MR+}

Xom is a total bro

Are you going to use it?

[eeviac]

Are you going to use it?

yeah, I'm a longblade using VSCK

[Turukano]

  Code:

the -11 chain mail "Xibboxud" {Dex-1 Int-2}

[Patashu]

  Code:

_N - the +9 crystal plate armour of Deysiotz {rElec MR+}


this would be sweet if I wasn't so tied to using my spells!

[Osgoodbad]

From the slime pits:

The cursed -7 leather armour of Yredelemnul’s Esteem {Str-2 Dex-5 Acc-4}

I guess I shouldn't have abandoned Yred in favor of Lugonu earlier in the game. Lugonu helped me break into the slime pit treasure chamber, though.

Also from the slime pits:

The +8+3 crossbow of virtue {penet, rF+, rC+, rN+, MR+, Dex+3}

You win some, you lose some.

[Lyrick]

  Code:

a - [Temple] the -10 pearl dragon armour of Terror {rN+ Stlth++}

Stealth++ makes it totes worth tho,

[Turukano]

  Code:

the ring "Blicebow" {Wiz rF+ Acc+5 Dam+6}

[tasonir]

+8 orange crystal plate armour {Archmagi, Int+3 Clar SustAb}

Yes, this is an unrand. But it's new in .15 and I got it on a gargoyle, so you can imagine the AC I had. (Hint: 82) Really love the archmagi bonus on heavy heavy armor - I was casting regeneration an aura of abjuration mostly, although I had been trying to get a few more spells online before I made the terrible decision to get out and win with only 4 runes Also used it to dispel undead a couple of ancient liches near the end. They go poof.

Nice to know it's possible to cast OCPA. The major concern in OCPA's design was the EV penalty was so large nobody would actually use it for spells.

I'd gladly try that armor on my next MiFI 15 rune attempt. It'd make my life much easier trying to get my support spells running.

[TeshiAlair]

  Code:

R - the +2,+4 flail "Qefettug" (weapon) {crush, -Tele +Inv rElec rF+ MR++
SInv}.

Pity about the base type, but still. Def going to keep as a swap weapong for the sInv alone.

Wait, why was this a concern? I'd think that characters wearing regular CPA cast spells more often than not (excluding Trog).

[Hirsch I]

most people do not know this is possible, Duv.
you should not assume people have acess to your vast knowlege.

[tasonir]

If you're curious about how the morgue looked, I wrote up a YAVP here: viewtopic.php?f=12&t=12314

If I had gone for more runes I'd have mostly spent the exp on getting more spells online as well as getting the upper levels of fighting/armor/dodging/unarmed.

[twelwe]

[Patashu]

holy shit that armour
(dat EV tho)

[duvessa]

ogre reasons: you want to have 34 AC while wearing body armour that gives 28 AC before armour skill

[Sandman25]

  Code:

 l - the -6 pair of gloves "Riff" {Str+4}
   (You acquired it on level 1 of the Snake Pit)   

Edit. The same game.

  Code:

 S - the -2 pair of gloves of Greed {+Fly MR+}
   (You acquired it on level 1 of the Elven Halls)

Nice name. Is crawl trying to say me that I should acquire jewelry? (already have a great weapon and don't need wands).

Edit2. The same game. I didn't know it's possible to have +6 over max enchantment.

  Code:

the cursed +14 chain mail of Thodung (worn) {Str+2 Dam-1 Stlth+}
   (You found it on level 3 of the Elven Halls)   

Yes, I use it. Dam-1 is not a big deal when you use +18 weapon

[Bloax]

Alright folks, you can go home now.

  Code:

I - the ring of Ephemeral Luck (left hand) {Dex-2 Int-2}

ephemeral - adjective
1. lasting a very short time; short-lived; transitory: the ephemeral joys of childhood.

[TeshiAlair]

  Code:

1691 gold   the +17 plate armour "Moisouq" {+Blink rF++ rC+}

I'm playing an VS Assasin

[Arkhan]

  Code:

s - the +2 robe of Gluttony (worn) {Stlth+)

This just in, fat people are stealthy.

[Bloax]

  Code:

1691 gold   the +17 plate armour "Moisouq" {+Blink rF++ rC+}

I'm playing an VS Assasin

Just switch to Chei and pump a bit of str.

seriously this thing is better than maxwell's coffin

[Sandman25]

I would probably switch to Jiyva, she does not force you to change play style so much and eventually can give you Str 30+ (that's for CPA, for plate it will be less).

[Lasty]

  Code:

1691 gold   the +17 plate armour "Moisouq" {+Blink rF++ rC+}

I'm playing an VS Assasin

So you bought it and wore it and you accidentally typed the wrong emoticon, right? Holy crap, that's amazing.

[Hirsch I]

  Code:

1691 gold   the +17 plate armour "Moisouq" {+Blink rF++ rC+}

damn, I got a boner reading that. it is as sexy as a lajatang of speed.

[TeshiAlair]

Splatted. *cries* viewtopic.php?f=12&t=12542

n - +2 shield of Egusat {rElec rF++ rC++ MR+ Stlth+}

http://crawl.akrasiac.org/rawdata/zzxc/ ... 120438.txt

[NessOnett]

I just got the Elemental Staff on a mage. Best artifact I've ever found...even if it is unrand.
For those who don't know what it does and too lazy to click the link:
+3, +3 staff
Inflicts bonus damage as though it were a randomly selected elemental staff with each hit (chance and power determined by Evocations)
+5 AC
rF++
rC++
rElec
+80 magic resistance

edit: and as per usual, that character splatted immediately after posting this. These forums are bad luck.

[tasonir]

n - +2 shield of Egusat {rElec rF++ rC++ MR+ Stlth+}

http://crawl.akrasiac.org/rawdata/zzxc/ ... 120438.txt

Are you tired of the plain old shield of resistance? Only the best shield in the game? Here, we've duct-taped two of them together into one for you, so now it's twice as good! Ah, the wonders of duct tape.

2996 | D:4 | Identified the +11 plate armour "Prigedyu" {rElec} (You found it on level 4 of the Dungeon)

[Bloax]

  Code:

O - the ring "Feqe" {rElec rF++ rC+ rN+}

bmfx just hit the ring jackpot

[TeshiAlair]

  Code:

R - the +4,+4 flail of the Coward {pain, Noisy +Blink +Inv rElec rPois rF+ Int+2

Sadly, I'm an Enchanter, and it is a flail. Still, that is just overflowing with stuff.
