I hate ghouls
HT warrior was developing nicely, except he had not found a single object of free action. Somewhere below dlevel 25, a single ghoul manages to surprise and paralyze him. Then it's time for a lot of more prompts until the final "You die" message. One was not a problem, but in the end there were 7 of them taking turns in paralyzing the poor sod.
Being turn based really rubs it in your face how utterly stupid your last action was when you clear -more- prompt after another and watch your hit points slowly crawl down from 300+ to 0-. Lesson learned, I hate ghouls. ![]() |

Maybe I'm just unlucky, but I often don't have Free Act until around DL30, and tend to take about 1.5 to 2x as long as you to win... Then again, I tend to spend about half of my turns scumming 97 and 98.

Once I remember doing an equipment shuffle to take on the last uniques, won and then posted the dump on the ladder. Looking at it afterwards, that character didn't have FA. Oh well, that's what Saving Throw is for, right?
