Interface option easy_open.
You can override this with the "jump" command, to set off a trap intentionally (usually trap door or teleport trap--both are cheap escapes.)

I would agree with the OP under the original spell list, when almost everyone has double cold resist. Now that potions are the only option for most chars, cold is a bigger risk. (And yes, do carry...

*Slay Evil* at one point had a random ability guaranteed. When it was ESP, it made for a really excellent weapon. I don't understand why that was removed.

Losing 20k to a vampire bat is karma. They are easy to detect and have almost no HP. Just a single shot from a half-decent bow, or a wand of fire bolts will destroy it. No need to let it get close.

1/8 of the poison counter and 1/4 of the cut counter, maybe? That means poison tops out at 100 per normal turn for a single attack.

This doesn't mean that recharge shouldn't sometimes fail catastrophically. For what you describe, archery is the right answer, possibly with a poison brand spell to juice it a little in the...

Agreed. I much prefer the model that wands should be reserved for when you jeed them, and rods should be used for the simple cases. With this observation, perhaps some rods should be deleted? I...

Gg
Shovel of quakes can't actually cause earthquakes. It takes at least a pick, and it generally requires a *GREAT* hit in melee.

If this really is your last try, why not use a non-random character? 1233 is pretty much blah across the board, though possibly sybtlety? But 1332 would be easier for that, as it cuts your melee and...

Random char generation will be brutal in Sil. Yeah, you will lose a lot of chars until you get one that is roughly optimal. Might as well play with a char of your choice
