Picture a cross between several construction vehicles and a dragon. Rrrrumble. A little anachronistic but I couldn't think of any better alliterations. (Feel free to suggest some.) Anyhow, some history on this one: Picked a difficult quest immediately; it was for 10 fives of hearts on depth 50! Lucky I had roguelike stealth so I could pick them off one by one, instead of the pairs they spawned in. Next was M-A Production Unit V only a few levels below; I took him out in two blows, then ran away madly from the automata he produced. On the same level I found an awesome mace; so early in the game yet it can sell for 11k! I think I'll keep it, though. It's in my home, check it out. Also of interest is that I've found four rings of resist fire but no others, and my current quest looks like a doozy...

Update! Kinda. I still haven't fallen the Marquis but at least my equipment is better. The first time I went onto his level he was in a room away from any doorways and I was unable to make him move by waiting around the room entrance, and when I stepped in I was promptly shotgun'd twice. Ow.

On 17.7.2006 10:49 Patashu@hotmail.com wrote:
Okay, he just fired his shotgun at me, from off the screen, three times in a row. Dropping the quest, this is unneccesarily dangerous.

Just general improvement here. Ditched the overly-hard Marquis quest for something that should be much easier to finish.

Quite nice so far; good line-up of skills and abilities. Should be interesting to see where the run goes. The Marquis can be quite a punisher, huh? I like your inscriptions, as a side note.

On 18.7.2006 10:52 Patashu@hotmail.com wrote:
Slowly improving. Got see invisible now, which is nice, and systems cypher is high enough for the resistances. (And I still have that awesome mace which I found only a few levels in.)

General Zaroff fell on level 38 for a quest. He shot his rifle at me from across a room, and by luck my mechanism of phase door plunked me right next to him; he beat away at me but I beat back harder and won out. The reward seemed abnormally low but oh well. I now have aerobatics maxed so I can blink at demand (cool), I have see invisible from equipment so that frees a ring slot (also cool), I snagged a Portal Generator of Returning from the black market (very cool) and my new quest is 'special'. Ooh, now I can't wait.

On 18.7.2006 13:10 Patashu@hotmail.com wrote:
Ooh, ooh! Greater vault 'Roundabout Three' sighted on level 36! Big update this time. Many levels were gain, many uniques slain, many turns spent agonizing over how much of the loot was cursed crud that I had to identify so. In the end, though, I came out with 12 books, including the best (afaik) in the whole dungeon which overall netted 20 yummy skill points, an light source that never runs out that I've welded to the inside of my mouth, a nice artifact amulet (welded that to the bottom of my neck for now), got pretty much an entirely new set of body parts (including these snazzy vectorized exhaust hindlegs), a nice starry coat of paint, a pneumatic shovel to attach over my foreclaw and an engine muffler (ring of stealth). With system cypher activated none of the mundane elements except ice can really harm me (I have a staggering 198% air res). Pretty much the only downsides to this whole expedition is that I still lack regeneration and an Avarice time bolted me and sapped 94 (!) agility points. Dang. I'm not stopping now, though!

Heh, when I drop a gold ray gun outside my home it looks like a wind-up key for a clockwork toy. Okay, back to dungeon-diving.

On 18.7.2006 14:21 Patashu@hotmail.com wrote:
Updated because I finished a quest. Not very spectacular, though; only 3 skill points. I've got a more impressive-looking gun to call my own, another +2 stealth on my equipment and that's pretty much it.

On 19.7.2006 08:03 advocateofsilence@yahoo.com wrote:
An impressive steam construct, indeed! You're an exemplar of the New Age of Progress! Good job beating on Zaroff, he has a nasty tendancy to out-snipe poor, defenseless gentlemen...

It sounds like your quests haven't been as rewarding as they should be, but that's most likely due to the annoying tendancy of the librarians to assume that you aren't as smart as they are, and give you less then premium training.

Awesome resistances, keep an eye out and see if you can find something that gives you a bonus to ether. It isn't vital, but those Ether Stalkers can be atrocious at later levels. Good luck!

On 19.7.2006 09:07 Patashu@hotmail.com wrote:
Heh, yes, I'm aware of the dangers of Ether Stalkers, one of my ancestors having been smacked in the face by one of them. My exceptional abilities in the field of blinking up to something silently and clobbering it over the head should keep me safe, but I'll look out nevertheless.

On 19.7.2006 09:28 Patashu@hotmail.com wrote:
Quest and a level up. 5 skill points from the level, 5 from the quest. Nothing else to report.

On 22.7.2006 03:59 Patashu@hotmail.com wrote:
Did a quest, leveled up some, unlocked The Gentle Way, got a cool gun. Cool.

On 22.7.2006 14:37 Patashu@hotmail.com wrote:
Update! While diving I found lotsa books (at least 9!) and sold them for quite a promising gain; I also found a horde of Jikinki (I love these; they're so easy yet drop tons of stuff to sift through); one dropped a new artifact light, which I welded in in place of my previous one; it shines several more feet away, which always feels nice. In addition, I've installed a new torso; I feel stronger already! Regeneration, at last!

On 22.7.2006 15:24 Patashu@hotmail.com wrote:
Went through two vaults and a quest; got Fleetness just in time to have it maxed before level 50. I found some nice overclocked arms, and a torso. A torso with ROCKETS on it. Cool!

On 24.7.2006 11:00 Patashu@hotmail.com wrote:
Found the Physiological Rejuvenator! Yes! Also got an artifact to apply as my paint coat (the bull's tail) and several more points of speed. I'm also altering my monster.raw file; so far all I've added is Mother Hen, a beefed up version of Rooster Cogs with S_KIN. Can't wait to meet her in battle. :) Wondering what else I should put, perhaps a Steam-Powered Rex?

Well, I realized I haven't updated the dump in a while...here I am! Nearly finished now! Hp broke 1000, with Systems Cypher speed is maxed out at +89, resistances are over 100% for every element except time, sound, light and dark, HP's broken 1000, got every skill I'll need...all I need to do now is dive!

On 30.7.2006 03:54 Patashu@hotmail.com wrote:
I think I'm ready now...Systems Cypher and the Nautilus activated, only elemental weaknesses are sound, light and dark, free act/rConf/rFear, speed's still at a high +86, HP's over 1100, I only have one thing to do now... *rumble, chuff* Think I can make it? ...I wonder what people on the surface are like...

Good luck. As far as surface dwellers go... it's best to bring presents. Ale, fine wine, mushrooms of confusion and hallucination work best.

On 30.7.2006 04:43 Patashu@hotmail.com wrote:
Did it! The two bosses were surprisingly weak; they gave me no trouble at all (while phase automata, on the other hand, give me trouble all the time; eww, 1000 hp death missiles). Amusingly, I somehow made it to level 1 before identifying a mechanism of Object Detection...anyhow, speaking of challenges, there's an automata/construct pit on the level, wish me luck...

On 30.7.2006 08:03 Patashu@hotmail.com wrote:
Exploring this lab I found above the surface, only the phase automata seem to be any problem; you'd think the missile sentries and tanks would be too, but they never seem to wake up...oh, I finally identified steam ray guns (however that works). My equipment seems to be stable, but I'm hoping for an improvement to stumble across sooner as opposed to later...

On 31.7.2006 11:56 Patashu@hotmail.com wrote:
Useable loot is hard to find once you're this powerful; I got a slightly better paint coat (cloak) and mining implement but that's it so far. (Wasn't even pneumatic...) Also finally ID'd ring of resist poison and potion of boldness. In addition, I've been keeping track of horridly cursed items; some highlights so far are a 1-45 vulnerability cloak (aggravates), -9 speed boots, -10 speed ring, -28 ring of damage. I feel like adding adding more top-end monsters to my game to make things more interesting; I added Bridget's Rhinocerous and Bengal Tiger, and I'm thinking of making an Ancient Steam-Powered Dragon.

Here lies the battered hull of Diesel Dragon on Lab Level 9, who took one too many risks with a construct pit full of Nazi Panther Tanks and Ancient Steam-Mecha Dragons (which are, unfortunately, diggers) and had bad luck with the etheric travel mechanism. Construct pits are nasty things.
