I was trying this out in wizard mode, but what's supposed to happen when I'm wearing SDSM and I step on a polymorph trap when Silver Dragons are genocided? It printed out: "You feel rather silver dragon-ish." Is that a result of being in wizard mode or is this one thing that won't just outright kill you?

YAAP: http://alt.org/nethack/userdata/Jawn/dumplog/1240644908.nh343.txt I had been trying cavemen, accidentally hit random role and wound up ascending the barbarian that popped up. Only genocided L, had a written a couple of scrolls to spare but held back. Next time I'm definitely bringing enough gold detection/booze to locate all of the portals without having to play hot/cold with the Amulet, Plane of Fire was stupidly annoying with conflict on.

So I just started playing; after losing about 20 characters I finally got a Samurai through the entirety of the Gnomish Mines and had made my way to delphi. I had -10AC, +2 gray dragon scale mail, Excalibur, and was level 10. Having played for a little over an hour, I decided to call it quits and typed #quit, thinking it ended the game and saved it for me. Am I sure I want to quit? Well, yes, that's why I typed it. Do you want your possesions identified? What!? gently caress! #save. #save cost me the best game I've had so far.

YAFAP: http://alt.org/nethack/userdata/johnswamps/dumplog/1240953212.nh343.txt I used a throwaway name on NAO because I sucked and didn't want bobwhoops' game statistics to be filled with crappy low level deaths (yeah, I know it's dumb). I had never even gotten to the castle before, so this completely surprised me. It's also strange considering this is one of the worst games I've had. After getting to the castle, completing my quest and the fort, I accidentally explode my BoH, including my WoW with three unused wishes. Never found another source of wishing in the game, I was stuck with -14 AC for the endgame, was only able to genocide L, no magic marker, etc. I did find two huge potion shops and and three wands of death though. Regardless, everything from the VOTD down was a joke. I only came close to dying once, and that was to the high priestess of moloch who paralyzed me and then beat me to half hp, so I just zapped her with a wand of death. Everything else I just mowed down without thinking (including Death). Nerf valkyries. So ... do I get to put this on my resume? bobwhoops fucked around with this message at 07:27 on May 2, 2009 |

I just ascended my first Monk. I'm not sure if my mistakes got me through or not. Like every other monk I play I feel compelled to keep weaponless and vegan conducts. Broke weaponless on minesend when a Gnome Lord happened to be trapped in the tiny room you've got to dig into. Shortly after broke vegetarian/vegan when I accidentally ate my emergeny lizard corpse. (Which was incredibly frustrating after already surviving a stoning with a potion of acid). My first sacrifice yielded Stormbringer, and I thought. I've already broke weaponless, might as well use it. I had to polymorph for a bag of holding, despite running into no less than 5 bones files. I was afraid of Master Kaen having lost too many Monks to him in the past so I did made a boulder fort and threw fireballs at him until he croaked. I found a wand of wishing a floor or two before Medusa, after using the engrave wish for some charging scrolls I didn't touch it again until I hit the Vibrating Square. Izchack only had 6 candles so I had to wish for one. Also wished up a ring of conflict while I was at it, just because I the sanctum without is a such a pain. I made so many stupid mistakes that game. The blooper reel includes such blunders as: - Blowing up my +5 speed boots trying to enchant something else further. - Wasting an amulet of life saving because I forgot to switch back from water walking to speed boots after crossing Jubilex's swamp. Something read a cursed scroll of create monster and I got reamed, due to the speed and AC difference. - Letting Pestilence sneak up on me while burdened with only 1 charge remaining in my wand of death. Conflict and some quick thinking got me out of that one.

I can't believe what I just did. 6 loving conducts. http://alt.org/nethack/userdata/EvilDrReef/dumplog/1241329078.nh343.txt code:It was such a pain to worry about micromanaging hunger once I got the amulet, since it drains hunger at the same rate as a worn ring just for being in your inventory. I was really nervous once I got hungry at about dlvl37 or so, and weak a little ways up after that. Luckily the fruit juice I had was enough to get me back up out of Gehennom, as well as enough to get up to an altar to pray for a full stomach rather than without one. Despite the difficulty, though, this was more fun than most of my other games. Not sure how that works.

I was crowned on turn 13200, so more than half the game was spent without resistances. Waaaay longer than I remembered. Probably the biggest mistake of my game was, after getting to level 14 in the Valley, I decided I'd kill the gremlins that had spawned. The peaceful gremlins. I didn't know that you got an alignment penalty for killing peaceful monsters as a chaotic. By the time I was up to the quest I must have had around -100 alignment. Whoops. Thankfully, I knew create monster so I spent about 500~1000 or so turns casting that next to an altar to get it back up above 20 so I could actually do the quest. God drat what a hassle that was.

Don't you lose protection if your alignment goes negative, or am I making that up? Ed: No, I guess that's only if you pray with neg. alignment.

I have a knight in the early game and he is going kind of slow. Down to level 10 still no poison resistance. I also just lost my warhorse because I let it fight a mimic in a shop after it had almost killed itself trying to kill the shopkeeper. This makes me sad. How important is the horse to a knight? How important is it that I find a new horse?

It isn't important unless you're role playing. My advice is get a Ki-rin. Much more fun thinking of a Knight on an Angelic Angel horse thing.

I figure the only real reason to keep it around is because jousting is just so amazing, but I feel like I probably do more damage with Excalibur anyway, and I can still pound with the lance.

Just make sure you put the saddle somewhere safe so you can come get it again if you want it. They're not exactly common items!

This (actually, the linked article about the creature it's based on) on makes me want to play a knight or valkyrie and try some major role playing. Normally I wouldn't blow a wish on a saddle, but suddenly it seems worthwhile.

I can't find the stairs to sokoban (!), I still don't have poison resistance, cross-aligned Minetown altar, no freebie magic lamps. I seem to have lucked into a pair of speed boots but that is just about the best thing going on this game. EDIT: Oh and to top it off, not one single Identify scroll. I have no idea how.

Also, the stairs to Sokoban will always always always be on the dungeon level below the oracle. Since you've explored to level 10, you have been on the level with the second up stairs. There may be a hidden door that you have missed, or maybe the stairs are under something? Check for statues, I tend to not notice them as much as other objects.

Souvenir. I tin all the named monsters I can, personally, so that I can ascend with their remains in my backpack. Ditto dead pets.

YASD. Apparently the high priest of moloch is pretty tough. I was going for my second ascension (vegan weaponless monk, though I ended up breaking both by accident). I go in hoping to /oD the high priest, but he's got MR. I also can't get out because there's a golem blocking the way. He starts beating the crap out of me, so I take out my /oW to wish for a cockatrice corpse but it's out of charges. I had an "oLS but it would have taken too long to put it on and I only had one potion of full healing. I'm an idiot.

I downloaded this game to try a rogue-like for the first time, and I was immediately placed in a room with no doors or discernible exits. Every game I start, I end up hitting dead ends. Is there a way to reach other floors or something? Maybe someone can just link me to a decent guide or something...

Search for secret doors - they're fairly common in rooms, and "ends" of corridors, and very rarely somewhere along a corridor. Generally levels fill the map, so if there's a big space somewhere, try searching the walls of rooms facing that area. You get a feel for likely locations of secret doors after playing for a while.
