DCSS thread

I fuarrrking hate this game, and for some reason it's the only one I've playing for the past few month beside victoria 2. I've just been blasted to death on the last level of the Elf Hall branch, with a Minautor of Okawaru level 18. I got 2/15 runes: decaying, gossamer. You visited 7 branches of the dungeon, and saw 41 of its levels. You also visited: Labyrinth, Ossuary, Bailey and Volcano. 251695 Urist Mc55 the Slayer (level 18, -2/181 (184) HPs) Began as a Minotaur Fighter on Oct 23, 2015. Was the Champion of Okawaru. Slain by Wiglaf ... wielding a +3 broad axe of pain (8 damage) ... on level 3 of the Elven Halls on Oct 24, 2015. The game lasted 03:16:03 (48194 turns).

Y - amulet "Skofet" {rMut +Inv Stlth+} Stlth .......... J - +6 ring of strength L - +6 ring of dexterity I guess I shouldn't have kept my rings of strength and dexterity. And switched them with, I don't know, a ring of positive energy? Maybe even replace my amulet of (rMut, +Inv, Stlth+), seriously, I don't even know why I was wearing that when I had an amulet of air (Inacc +Fly rElec EV+5 RMsl), it's not the greatest amulet, but the rElec, EV+5, and permanent RMsl (combined with the +8 large shield of reflection), that pretty good. One thing is sure is that I should have switch my +8 broad axe (elec, rPois) with my +1 broad axe (venom, rF+, rM++), for some extra magic resistance. I'm so fuarrrking done with this shitty game.

I should have switch with an other god, I don't know which one. I'd had pretty much all the weapons, and gears I wanted from Okawaru, and I don't find his god abilities especially useful in deeper level. I barely ever use heroism and finess. It's maybe one of the reason I suck so much at this game.

yeah more MR and rNeg would have helped a lot. you just have to keep luring mobs back and sticking to corridors otherwise you will get destroyed. Okawaru isn't a bad choice at all. should have cleared the Lair first with that setup too imo.

>>3130 Yeah, I didn't thought abuot changing my rings, and my weapon. On this run I had finished all the level of the regular dungeon, the lair, the swamp, the spider nest, and the orcish mine (as you would expect). So I don't think I was to low level. I was a bit surprised by the difficulty spike on the last level of the elf hall, and also there were something preventing me from control teleport and blinking, so when I tried to flee, I ended up in the middle of a room full of nasty spell casters. A necklace of clarity would have been nice to.

finally played it again after so long, Jesus! I can't even get anywhere with a minotaur beserker
