Very early Thranduil find is making this character go quite quickly. Nothing too bad so far.

Disaster! I forgot to get a source of Stone to Mud before doing the Killing Fields! So I had to leave with killing only 140 Warriors of the Dawn, rather than 400ish.

Doh!

You get 400? The 2 times I've done it I only got 280 or so ... :(

It varies. I think Hellbug got 400... he leveled up to 32 with it.

BTW! You also need to make sure that Teleport is not considered an attack spell for Ticked Off purposes. Hunting down Alberich is... extremely annoying.. when he teleports after every Eldritch Blast.

Wait ... was he very wounded? I did notice some bad "attack spells" like Darkness and Create Traps. But wounded monsters get their "panic spells" back. If I don't do this, then you will have an easier time finishing guys off ... Just tick 'em off and they will never heal! Probably, I need to play with the spell selection odds though ... I had a harder than usual time finishing Nami off (And she only got ticked off because of summon traps, which is just wrong, IMO).

On 16.11.2010 00:57 dzhang@its.caltech.edu wrote:
"Very wounded" is objective, I guess, but he kept teleporting at like 6-7 stars. I even burned 2 !oSpeed, but nope. It was just not possible with my current/damage. Had to abandon.

OK, that's a huge bug. I'll add it to Issue 42, which is my catch-all at the moment for small tweaks. Sorry about that ...

He shouldn't teleport/heal until down to 1/3 of max hp if he is ticked off. If he is not ticked off, that is another matter.

Hrm. I'm stuck. I've failed GHMWQ (same teleport/heal deal), and tried the next one... Scylla. With Spell Revenge and breath Fire and Poison,

Can you wait for 0.0.10? I'm kind of half way thru the Archaelogist at the moment, and stuff isn't ready for a safe push. I'd definitely want to test this out a bit.

I'm bumping retaliation down from 70% to 50% in 0.0.10 as well.

BTW, my guy killed the GHMMWQ ... Maybe you are too weak :D Just kidding! I don't think I could have done Skylla.

Well, that got me unstuck quite nicely. Magma Vein in a corridor. Yay! About 4 months later, I emerge semi-victorious from the Pits of Angband 4 million gold pieces richer.

(Chris... if you don't want Quartz Vein and Magma Intrusions to be the default way of getting out of the clvl 30 rut, you probably should make them stop dropping gold!)

Now, to test out the \e8R9999\rUa\sUa\s2 macro.

I'll leave it in there for now ... How did you manage to get so much in the dungeon? Every time I try, too many other monsters spawn, or eventually something I can't handle breaks thru walls and kills me. I rarely get more than 200k in the dungeon :-P

=oSpellPower is still a bit to common, at least in the BM. Saw something like 10 of them, including 3 -3's. They are also too cheap at the moment (< 10k).

On the other hand, no =oSpeed for Drone, unfortunately.

Farming Magma Intrusions with Warlock is easy, because I don't have to move. I just set up a macro to keep Satisfying Hunger, Eldritch Spear down the corridor 8 times, and then Rest 9999. Occasionally I'll go and pick up some of the gold (I think the "item compression" sometimes removes gold >_<).

Since the monsters never spawn in your LoS, there's not much trouble as long as you don't move much.

As of about 7 am this morning, Drone became my first Cheng character to clear the Cloning Pits. After taking down Ariel, Zoth-Ommog, and Fafner in Angband (each with 1-2 !oHealing), I decided I'll do my classic Cloning Pits Overkill (tm) mode, and went in with 40 !oSpeed, 30 !oHealing, 30 !oResistance, 2 _oSpeed, 30 ?oPhaseDoor, 50 ?oTeleport, and a =oLevitation.

My Heroic Stealth was enough to ensure that no monsters woke prematurely, and my 12d23=144 Eldritch Blast was actually about 3 times as effective because the Burst always catches all three monsters. Still, the Father Dagons required the use of 4-5 !oHealing! I shudder at the thought of doing the Cloning Pits with a Demon Warlock.

Coming out, I was super-excited upon seeing a Pair of Soft Leather Boots [4], and not a random unIDed ring. It was only after I zapped my -oPerception that I realized the Cloning Pits reward has been changed..

Old Castle isn't possible at this point (Dracolich! Iron Lich! Greater Mummies!), so I went back into Angband. Brand for my lvl 50 quest. I decided Brand is almost always worth the Amberite curse risk, and killed him (3 !oHealing, including 1 that topped off my HP at the end).

With my random teleportation item, Brand's spell revenge acted against him. I kept seeing things like:

Brand grunts in pain.
Brand is ticked off.
Brand teleport away.
Do you follow? Y
Brand is no longer ticked off.

After killing him, I saw a Light Crossbow (x4), but chastised myself not to get my hopes up. It could be William Tell. But nope, it was actually Brand! (BTW, anyone ever wonder why Brand is so slow at +10 speed, even with his crossbow? That's like +0 base speed, compared to all the other Amberites at +20...)

Stunning Blast, even with the gimped stunning, is still the best option for mid-30's warlocks against single foes. Brand was stunned only about 1 in 3, but that equated to about a 1/6 reduction of damage for me.

Time to abuse my high speed and kill some dragons!

Upgrade to 0.0.10 and Brand will retaliate with Darkness Storms, Psycho Spears, and Logrus! Until he starts to panic, at least ...

For The Cloning Pits, you had a shot at Shiva's Boots, so they are not totally removed as a possible quest reward. I hadn't thought of the Demon pact wrt The Cloning Pits ... Ouch! These pacts are tough!

I know; that's why I waited to upgrade.. ^^ I figure, the Teleport retaliation screwed me over earlier on, I might as well get some benefit out of it to balance things out.

(Brand did do one of each of those big three on me. Fortunately, Undead CON + Extra Resiliency means a whopping 700+ HP).
