If it doesn't fit anywhere else, it belongs here. Also, come here if you just need to get hammered.

Hilarious God Gifts

Okay, Okawaru just gifted me his first artifact weapon of the game, a falchion of orc slaying.

When did he give it to me? Immediately upon killing the last orc as I was leaving the orcish mines after clearing it.

The icing on the cake is that it's enchantment is -2, -6. Weee! Somehow I don't think I'll be hanging onto it, even for its other properties (rC+ SInv).

Thanks Okawaru. I'm removing my amulet of faith...

Re: Hilarious God Gifts

Oka is just like that.
The last game I worshipped him, I received a +0 pair of boots {god gift}. Too bad I already had +2 boots of running on my feet ...

Trog gave me a long sword of orc slaying once, pretty much after I had cleared almost the entire Mines as well. I think those two might be in cahoots with each other.

Re: Hilarious God Gifts

I've got a KoCK of Xom going right now- hilarious god gifts are pretty much the point. My favorite so far- "Xom's Papyrus of @player_death@ {god gift}". If that's not meant to be a threat, I don't know what is.

Runner up- the humble choko and bread ration god gifts... that are inedible.

Re: Hilarious God Gifts

Tangentially, "KoCK" has got to be one of the worst race/class abbreviations in the game.

In learndb's "bad ideas" entry, someone proposed to remove the "KoCK of Lugonu" combo, as Lugonu is considered female ...

Re: Hilarious God Gifts

Okawaru apparently noticed that my horns mutation prevented me from wearing proper helmets so he thoughtfully gifted me a ... -1 cap. Everybody's a comedian. On the other hand, he also gave me the +2, +9 ankus "Orb Guardian's Doom" {pierce, rElec, Str +1}

Re: Hilarious God Gifts

Okawarau gifted me a sabre called "Killer Bee's Regret" after slaying the Queen Bee in the Hive once. Unfortunately it didn't have Bee Slaying, but I suppose Vorpal is close enough. Keeping with the theme, I later found another sabre called "Killer Klown's Regret" in Zot on the same character.
The best strategy most frequently overlooked by new players for surviving: not starting a fight to begin with.
