Yet another i'm really frustrated post (an a cry for advise)
I always play a Berseker Mountain Dwarf. Last game I was lvl 18, ~30 AC, had 20 on the shield skill, was extremely resistant to magic (had about 3 items granting MR, plus Hand of Trog) but yet died (yet again) in the Elven Halls 7... I even had 3 good mutations (I usually shy away from mutations)
What am I doing wrong? I was cautious, had already cleaned the level, except for the main room. Almost all elves died in under 5 strikes, I even went up and replenished my piety to be able to summon allies, I used corridors as I should, and yet it was not enough... Am I trying Elven Halls 7 too early? Do I NEED a scroll of silence? Shield of reflection? What am I missing? thought high AC and MR will suffice! :S
All elves were easy except Annihilators and Demonologist. This time, a single Demonologist killed me (spamming a bunch of demons, including Hellions and a Executioner). I lured them into a corridor and tried everything, but couldn't even escape to the stairs and couldn't kill them :S
Advise???
BTW, damn RNG... I found a treasure trove early on, but it's price was 5 scrolls of magic mapping... I only saw 3 of them in the whole game (one of which I lost use-identifying...)
This was him (attachment), btw...
