Books
i - a manual of Stabbing
Having my best Spriggan Assassin run yet. I'm wondering though:
Skills:
- Which skills should I focus on most? I've got:
* Level 12.4 Fighting
- Level 7.2 Short Blades
- Level 13.0 Throwing
+ Level 16.7 Dodging
- Level 9.0 Stealth
- Level 13.8 Stabbing
- Level 12.2 Evocations
- Related to that, I just found a manual of stabbing, but stabbings already almost at 14, that's enough to one-shot anything anyway, isn't it?
- Do higher levels of stabbing give a chance of stabbing in normal melee?
Missile weapons
Poison needles are starting to lose their effectiveness and I don't yet have paralysis / sleeping needles. What's better for softening things up at range, hand axe of returning (I got two +3,+2 ones in a bailey), or steel darts?
Equipment
Not really needing advice as much as wanting to brag.:
- Trog's very first gift to me was a +6,+8 quick blade!
- Then on Lair 8 I find the +1,+6 quick blade of Fykoqis {elec, str +3 dex-3}. I did NOT know you could have a QB of electrocution, that is massive.
- I use-ID'd a scroll of acquirement, chose armour and got the +0 Robe of Midsummer (rF++ rC+ MR Str-1)
- and a +2,+5 ring of slaying is helping out too.
- Weirdly, I still have not found any other blowguns other than the one I started with. A blowgun of velocity or evasion would be pretty sweet.
This is probably a character that any decent player could trivially win with. I'm sure I'll get overconfident somewhere and get myself killed.
