Tips for surviving with a KoHu?

At most around level 8 something always appears that trumps me. I'm going with crossbows and I can't even get to decent god powers or anything, I've splatted like 8 characters today.

Any advice?

Any dump? ;)

Edit. Or just see viewtopic.php?f=12&t=8078&p=109603 for example of KoHu who died in Zot.

Re: Tips for surviving with a KoHu?

Even the first dump of Sandman's KoHu is a lot later than XL 8, so might not be much help. I think good early-game KoHu advice would be:

Train crossbows and dodging, turn off all other skills.
Use a melee weapon to kill popcorn, but always explore with your crossbow wielded.
Do not use a shield or buckler.
Worship Fedhas and mushroom a lot. Alternatively, worship Okawaru and heroism a lot.

Re: Tips for surviving with a KoHu?

That looks about right, but I do have some petty disagreements: dodging started later than I would've done, as with invocations (with okawaru I pick up 1-2 levels of invo as soon as I reach *). Also I pretty much never train a melee weapon skill on a *Hu of okawaru, to me it doesn't feel like any help at all when there's ammo rain.

Re: Tips for surviving with a KoHu?

That game happened almost a year ago, yes, I would train Dodging earlier now, not much earlier though. For some reason I didn't need Heroism, maybe I felt the character was strong enough, I don't remember now.

  Code:
Invok: Heroism           |       |       |     1 |    12 |    11 ||    24


I always train melee on my Hu, being afraid of running out of ammo even with Oka.

Re: Tips for surviving with a KoHu?

Trust me for a second - Try KoBe and pick up crossbows once you find actual ammo for them. Granted this isn't the only way, but whenever I play KoHu, you don't have enough bolts to really use bolts for dangerous fights. I'd rather start as a berserker and pick up the crossbow mid game. Example morgue of me doing that:

That final yak captain was totally aimbot hacking, I was low on options and trying to regen around a corner, used agility, had 41 ev with 20 ac, and he still lands his first shot on coming back into sight of me. *cry* I'm thinking I should go for 2 runes before going to vaults in general, but in this game I was lacking a good way to get MR and rC, so I delayed shoals.

Uhm, you choose vaults isntead of Shoals because you lacked good MR? This sounds strange to me.

Even cold resistance is more important in Vaults than in Shoals I think.

41 EV has about a 30% chance of dodging a ranged attack from yaktaur captain with a +0 crossbow, if that old EV graph is still close to accurate.

Re: Tips for surviving with a KoHu?

Crossbows are just insanely accurate... stupidly accurate I would say. But of course, RMSL and DMSL are things, so maybe they have to be.

Re: Tips for surviving with a KoHu?

It's because of the captain's HD, not the crossbow.

Re: Tips for surviving with a KoHu?

How about Trog?
No need for silly invocations wasting your XP.
He can make your weak melee game buff up with berserk/BIA
Anddd he gifts bolts, which you'll never find until late game yaktaurs.
And pretty quick piety gaining, whereas Okawaru takes forever.

Re: Tips for surviving with a KoHu?

Monster ranged attacks are affected absurdly by HD. For example, see what happens when an orc warlord picks up a stack of darts. Unless you want that character to live.

I suppose I'll try to trust EV slightly less. My overall odds increase slightly if you consider he could have rolled low damage, or I could have gotten lucky and absorbed the full 20 from ac, but even then, it seems like more of a coinflip that I'd live, when if you had asked me before, I'd have said I had about 80-90% chance to live (one attack), and fairly good chances to win the encounter, although I did of course recognize it was a rather bad position.
