I'd taken a long blades DeBe, and then Yiuf offered me his staff and I started killing the dudes with that. But then: Orc dropped an elec demon blade.

I'd planned to kill things with whatever lajatangs Trog gives me and shooting arrows into dudes, but damn, an elec dblade on Orc:2 is pretty excellent too.

So... should I switch?

Re: CIP: DeBe, Staves or Elec Dblades?

I guess it depends whether you'd like your attack to (a) add a bunch of elec damage, or (b) berserk your enemies.

Re: CIP: DeBe, Staves or Elec Dblades?

To be fair, there is a third option:
  Code:
U - a +1 vampiric lajatang {!w}
   (Trog gifted it to you on level 1 of the Orcish Mines)

Re: CIP: DeBe, Staves or Elec Dblades?

With Staves at 14 already, I would definitely go with the vamp laja.

Yeah, I know vamp is great but I don't feel like dealing with the food conduct.

If you're not swapping your weapon (and why would you?) then it's the same thing as playing the game normally but you eat one more bread ration.

Oh, the minotaur answered my question for me:

  Code:
_i - a +2 lajatang of electrocution (weapon)


Guess I don't need to go back to Orc.

I like ranged attacks, have 12 bows and no throwing, and will probably get me a rod at some point.

Re: CIP: DeBe, Staves or Elec Dblades?

On a hunter^trog recently I had 20 bows and 14 staves, got a vamp lajatang, figured, "Well, I will try to use it for a while and see how often I switch," but then I just held tab and won the game without having to hit ' ever again. Twenty damn levels in bows, a couple of rods, and my character was significantly stronger just using the vamp lajatang and never wielding anything else. (To be fair it was a +11 artefact vamp lajatang with no other important properties, positive or negative, but I found it late in Vaults, and that's only a bit better than a +9 vamp lajatang.)

If you don't want that power, cool, but you don't need to worry about the food conduct, because you do not need to wield anything else.

Huh. I'd always thought vamp was good, but not that overpoweringly good. I'm pretty happy with my elec one but I'll try the vamp.

Re: CIP: DeBe, Staves or Elec Dblades?

yeah vamp melee makes the game a joke. It's always a breeze. back in the day, i'd carry vamp hand axe all the through lair, slowly killing death yaks, and never really dying with all the healing...
