 65642 | Depths:2 | Escaped the Abyss

 72146 | Depths:5 | Cast into the Abyss (black draconian)
 73335 | Depths:5 | Escaped the Abyss


Never had so many issues with being abyssed. But this game has been low on MR, and quick to cast banish.

First one was a close shave. I burned several ?tele and !hw, and charges of the same wands (I was quite lucky to be equipped for that). All the subsequent banishments were tedious, but not terribly dangerous.

Re: I don't love it when...

1. I encounter shrikes
2. I find one of the nifty new randarts with a million attributes and 1-2 really bad ones that make most worthless (without encouraging vigilant item swapping). Waste of my time and stupid.
3. I go to Snake Pit: rmsl, rP, rF, rElec, portal project, swarm, constrict and any other devious something to compensate for slow moving nagas
4. I play a mummy
5. Shadow traps

When you get 8 orbs of fire on Z:5, and 6 consecutive teleports do no more than pop you over to the other side of the lung you're in.

When you then end up with berserk 3, clumsy 1, deterioration 1, frail 2, low mp 1, forlorn, and no cure mutation spawned in your game even after clearing Elf, Crypt and 7 floors of a Zig.

Re: I don't love it when...

If you're playing trunk, caustic shrikes have higher HD than shadow dragons (18, as opposed to 17). My guess is that the higher accuracy is because for each "attack" the shadow dragon makes, it tries to hit you three times, and the shrike only tries once.

That's misleading if that's the way fsim works (and it is how it works). Accuracy and damage should be per individual attack.

Re: I don't love it when...

Yes, it explains the difference. If we assume that Shadow Dragons and Caustik Shrikes have the same basic accuracy (close enough if they have 1 HD diff) and probability to miss is 0.59, then we get accuracy (1-0.59)=0.41 for shrike and accuracy (1-0.59*0.59*0.59)=0.79 for dragon.

Re: I don't love it when...

The game starts on turn 0, and anything that happens during your first action or monsters' first action counts as such. The turn counter is only incremented after you take your first move and then everything else is updated. So this person took one step, and fell down a shaft. Similarly, you can die on turn 0 by shooting yourself, god wrath back when that had an instant effect, starting the game on lava (an abyss bug), or being killed by a monster immediately (monsters can't start next to you, but honeycomb mimics can).

IIRC in Nethack it was (is?) possible to start the game, have an intelligent artifact of opposite alignment generated on the same tile, have autopickup pick it up, and die from the blast immediately without taking any actions.

I get abyssed. Anywhere. But especially by a popcorn orc in Orc:4. Again.

Seriously getting tired of this situation, it is soooo damn tedius to watch and react for anything wielding a glowing weapon in there. On that count, the game would be better off it just banished the player to Zot:1 instead. God I hate the abyss.

Re: I don't love it when...

I have just asked to make Recall work inter-level with Fedhas and crawl instantly punished me for that by shafting to Swamp 2 with no way to run from hasted Frances, I barely survived all those Hydras and Sun Demons by using basically all kind of evokables I had: haste/might/agility/blinking/invisibility/curing/potion of flight/potions of HW/zaps of HW/scroll of magic mapping. I ran about 40 tiles and didn't even have time to quaff resistance for poisonous clouds. Crazy game :(

Seriously getting tired of this situation, it is soooo damn tedius to watch and react for anything wielding a glowing weapon in there. On that count, the game would be better off it just banished the player to Zot:1 instead. God I hate the abyss.

What's a glowing weapon?

Re: I don't love it when...

When Xom teleports me around, I tend to be happy that I have seen monsters, items, and the dungeon layout in multiple parts of the current floor. It makes it easier to retreat and easier to find things, just like reading magic mapping does.

Sure, I'm in a different part of the dungeon and I may have left a corpse or a half-dead enemy behind, and I may be in view of a new enemy, but multi-teleport is more advantageous than a single teleport.

Or am I missing something important about teleport trips?

I don't love it when I find the Mask of the Dragon sitting unguarded on the ground and realize that despite being a mask rather than a hat, it still won't go on my Demonspawn with Horns 3.
