Ran into a pretty wild bones file: Black and gray dragons on level 12(!). Looks like this has been a honey trap for a while, as there appeared to be three different piles in there, all with LOADED BoH and no tombstones. Fortunely my sokobon was the reflect one and once I found a cancel my ascension kit came together way faster than usual.

If it's any consolation to J5A you should know I took your Mjolnir with me to the Astral Planes. Forgot to name it though.

McNerd posted:Sounds like to me like you might be descending too quickly. Depending what qualifies as "useful equipment," I'd think you should have some by that point. Are you exploring each level thoroughly? They don't spawn anywhere; they were added as a sort of joke by the devteam, and the only way you'll ever see one is by reverse-genociding, or zany polymorph.

Contra Duck posted:I've done that except I polyed into a vampire lord just after the castle and used an amulet of unchanging to prevent what would have been a rather nasty change back to human. Playing out the endgame as a V was pretty cool actually, you get free regeneration, 10 free points of AC and you can fly which means you don't have to worry about primitive technologies like rings of levitation. I considered trying that actually, are there any downsides beside silver damage and possible nymph instakills?

I didn't realize I was burdened thanks to satiation. Yes being full IS more important than being slow, thank you nethack interface

McNerd posted:At this point, if you care enough about your score to bother, you make smart guesses based on the number of each type you found. If you have one pile of 30 red stones, and one pile of 6 red stones, and one pile of 2 red stones (which you can tell are valuable through engrave-testing), it's pretty easy to guess which ones are glass. You can also weed out a lot of garbage by naming all your unknowns "glass", putting them in a chest and kicking the crap out of it. Everything that survives isn't glass!
