A new Beholder, still want to win with them.

I had an insane start with the White Crocodile dropped a speedring!! But that was also the last nice item I found. So I'm having a hard time surviving with not much more than res base from several rings combined. No luck finding a ring of resistance, I want/need one. Or a nice High resistance.

Leveling is tough as I can just manage Ancient Dragons. I took a risk with some Mana hounds, but I was able to kill 3 packs of them worth over 100k exp. At clvl 35 I will get some new battle power/esp/resistance so I hope I get some more Mana hounds as I cant handle any other hound pack, maybe Plasma is also doable.

But beholders are tough with only rings to count on.

Btw I notice that +1 light radius don't work on art lamps. My replacement Phial has +1 radius, but still just a 3 radius and not 4. It sucks a bit as he only picked up res acid and +1 radius. Not that I hate it as res acid is pretty nice with my lack of resistances.

So, back to the eye. I (again) had a hard time getting to clvl 35. You need pretty good stats to get multiple blows with a 25 lbs 'weapon' and the elemental bolts are resisted a lot by deeper monsters. But I pulled through thanks to a young green dragon pit who contained 100+ dragons. Right after leveling up I went to the Arena for the ?oAcq and rushed over to Mount Olympus as my last eye got a speedring from it. Didn't got a speedring this time, got a unid ring. A =oWeaponmaster? Nope, Nenya! ... So now I have Immu cold and the stats boosted my bpr from 2 -> 3! So my melee was suddenly useful with 150 damage vs 80? from the manabolt. Getting good gear is just as hard as with the last, you really need luck to get randart rings with much needed high resses or the actual high res rings.

I think the manabolt costs a *lot* for it's damage. The elemental bolts were like 13d8 ~52 damage for 4-7 sp. The manabolt is 37 +1d127 ~100 damage for 15 sp. That about 8 damage per 1 sp elemental bolts vs 6 damage per 1 sp with manabolt. Ofcourse it is like unresistable but still, I can cast 20 manabolts before I run out. thats 2000 damage, Every wyrm has way more than 2000 hp. So I need to regen mana in the middle of the fight or use melee. Melee is dangerous with only 50 AC. Nappa did hit me once for 400 damage in one go.

And then you have groups of monsters I can only hit with 1 square big ranged attacks, you run out of mana *fast* fighting them.

So to make my point, I think the undead beholder needs something to support the manabolt, I was thinking about mana capacity as they are more a caster race than melee. Now I'm meleeing more than I like (the AC issue).

But they can stay like this too, it's not a bad thing to have challenging monsterraces.

And as last, it just feels wrong to clear the CP and actually get the boots of shiva! :( Or find Crisdurian with Jack from a single Wyrm, just so you can sell them in town for 6 more go's at the gambleshop. ;) Because my Liferate sucks with extreemly low str/int/dex 90/80/90 and average con 100. Liferating is 101/100 with is better than it was (83/100). Need more !oNewLife, time for a 4th one.

Clvl 40

Killing wyrms really helps getting xp. A second ring of Speed made it possible to melee them with the slow spell (might use that spell in more fights than manabolt). Didnt found much worthwhile, but thats the fate of a beholder who can only use a lot of rings. ;)

You have drain mana on your melee attack and also as a ranged spell.

So in the right situation you can keep fighting forever.

It's a "drain mana from monsters" turning it in hp. So, a vamperic kind of attack.

Clvl 43

I could really use a better hat as a Nightwalker, Gandalf, Saruman ruined Hammerhand... Only [6+14] (+1) left.

I don't get it how Chris can always get his characters up so easily. :p Haven't found anything useful in a long time, no new equipment since my last post. I'm doing something wrong.

Swapped Hammerhand with my magi crown and my resistance ring with Tulkas, so, nexus is a problem now, but the rest improved. :p

Finding good rings is rather difficult ... I'm having a hard go of it on DL92 in Olympus, running from many a (dark resistant) foe!

Checked what you have and I don't. Noticed the high res rings. I need to find myself some of those. :) I'm scrumming the bottem op the DC for something nice now. The Arena doesn't really drop rings altogether (not deep enough?)

Clvl 45,

Finally Ultimate Beholder form. Also found some nice stuff like my hat. 'Found' it with 5 ?oAcq I gambled (1.8m). Was hoping for ?oArtCreation ofcourse.

Also found some nice rings and my first High resistance rings (one with res fear and one with res nexus...) But I'm not complaining, the increased power of artifact rings is nice.

Really looking for a mana reduction ring for my stored scroll. 50 mana for a darkness storm is too much. ;)

Clvl 50!

Killed a few nice uniques including, after a dangerous fight, Gothmog. Not many improvements except a ring of high res with fear nether dis, which replaced my ring of dis res. :) Ow and some speedrings. Still looking for a ring of mana.

Clvl 50 with an interesting crown

It really ruins my melee power and eats away a lot of speed (+12 ring) and 250 HP. But... SPELLPOWER! Triples the damages of a lot. So now I need to find more +con +speed with-some-resses-if-possible-stuff... Easy.

Just killed Morgoth with it! :) And Santa with 3 storms :p. I'm loving it!

Nice :)

Can you confirm that you are only paying 37sp for a Darkness Storm and not 50sp? I think the code that builds the character dump is not applying the economical mana from Beruthiel.

Shot a townie with full sp. ;)

Oh, and be on the lookout for rings of might. They get as high as +5 and you could really use quite a bit more strength!

I noticed that I get encrumbled pretty easily. But I think I've seen like 2 =oMight total, one being cursed.

Also looking for my last two Uniques: Charybdis and Klingsor... I haven't seen both of them yet. Not sure what I want to create with the scroll.

Ow and how high is the chane that Madness actually creates the Artifact? Read 4 of them and they all blew up or cursed my items.

On 10.3.2013 16:53 chris wrote:
Madness is currently (spoilers):
10% destruction
5% summon cyberdemons
10% call chaos
40% blast chosen item
25% weapon branding (or nothing if not a weapon)
10% create artifact

ow, I did get the Cyberdemons once. My luck. But you actually need 10 scrolls... Not worth it. :p

@Chris
Should Beholders not have RBlind as an intrinsic? It seems ridiculous to think that with eight eyestalks they can be blinded as easily as anything else.

On 11.3.2013 10:26 Arjen wrote:
Winner!

Because I do tend to kill myself in this stage of the game I just went for it. (Almost died fighting my first Olympian as Beholder, I bailed.) With my 1200 damage darkness storms I should be able to kill the Serpent. And so I did, I was glad I brought ?o*Destruction*. They were te only scrolls I needed for this fight. Phase door was just useless as the destruction of the Serpent made the level too open (which I noticed reading the first one). So teleport-only after that. Destructed like 5-6 times, removing the likes of the Cyberdemon uni, Sauron (reflect and dark res...), Yig and many unnamed Uniques.

Finally my Beholder win, it was a hard but fun ride, especially with beruthiel on my eyeball.

Very funny note: The Serpent made me sickening fat giving met 20 more HP! :p Didn't know I had the teleporting mutation, never kicked in...

Congrats! Your HP are low enough that stuff could easily kill you, so going for the fast win was probably best. Another Beholder triumphs :D

On 11.3.2013 13:42 chris wrote:
Regarding blindness resistance, I could easily see giving this to the beholder, but I'd rather it remain their one, true vulnerability. For if the beholder becomes blinded, they lose all their melee attacks and lose all their spells as well, rendering them completely helpless!

On 11.3.2013 13:48 Arjen wrote:
Hp was really an issue as a lot of stuff did like 600 damage a shot, so I *needed* 100% hp all time, a little less was just asking someone random to finish you. Blind was my biggest problem too as *destruction* renders you Blind. I always needed to check that I could drink a !oCuring right after reading it. (Used my last Curing at my last *destruction*.)

Already busy with my new challenge, but I'll post him later (need to get a bigger headstart so I can finish before Chris does!).
