I've got Mjo, Vorpal, Angelslayer, Firebrand, Werebane, and a +6 mithril dwarvish spear. What's a good weapon combo to shoot for for Cen Val? I can keep camping for the other brand, for the offhand is the Vorpal a good choice? 11:17 Angelslayer 11:17 vorpal makes you immune to beheading which is sweet 11:17 mojo/angelslayer has great damage since few things resist them 11:17 but angelslayer is the best all-around damage weapon there is skills are comparable 11:17 vorpal is great for demon lords because of the instakill 11:18 i assume for the beheading resistance you gotta wield it rather than carrying it? 11:18 yes 11:19 An artifact trident that warns of Angels, confers automatic searching and half-spell damage, and does extra fire damage to targets that are susceptible. 11:19 (literally everything is susceptible) 11:19 I think all targets are susceptible 11:19 ^ I don't have trident skills tho. Can try to bump it up. Although the base damage is only 3d4 vs. large, plus a 1d10 bonus? 11:22 that's the same base damage as a standard katana 11:22 hmm, so i guess i can try mojo/angelslayer for normal monsters, then switch to mojo/vorpal for bosses? 11:22 3d4 vs large is better than 1d12 :-) 11:22 1d12+1 for steel katanas 11:23 (angelslayer is the best one-handed weapon in the game at same-skill imo) 11:23 leaves you the loot after you kill something :-) 11:24 i think k2 is gonna nerf the infernal fire from damaging infernal monsters tho :-) 11:24 he is 11:24 :'( how dare you introduce logic and balance! 11:24 ah trident is capped at Basic for me, so 1 point only 11:24 * K2 gasps 11:25 slashem would never make such a faux pas 11:25 because its already balanced and perfect 11:25 just like bhaak 11:25 :P 11:25 guys, i thought in vanilla gehennom monsters are fire-resistant?? 11:25 the trident's fire isn't fire, it is infernal fire 11:25 wat 11:26 speaking of, should infernal fire be dampened by water? 'cause currently angelslayer doesn't work against submerged targets 11:26 yeah 11:27 hmm 11:27 ... hhmmmm 11:27 plenty of things burn under water 11:27 sodium does not exist in *hack 11:28 A trident should be more effective underwater :) 11:28 it has to-hit bonuses vs. swimmers 11:28 yup 11:28 well, not more effective than in ear -- less less effective than other weapons :-) 11:28 did i say ear 11:29 what is wrong with me 11:29 you know, the ear that we breathe 11:29 i'd think a trident in the ear would be pretty darn effective 11:31 'Your ear wax deflects the trident!' 11:31 eww 11:32 e - 81 eucalyptus leaves. giants kicking trees are awesome 11:33 heh 11:39 what's this talk about swimming and submerged targets... 11:39 never swimmed 11:44 -!- mobileuser has quit [Ping timeout: 246 seconds] 11:44 recently it was made so fire (and acid?) damage was greatly lessened/nullified for targets in the water, like eels or sharks or whatever. on a separate note, tridents have a to-hit bonus against monsters with the swimmer flag, which basically means anything you normally find in the water. 11:49 Do giants have a bonus when kicking trees?

20:19 yeah but the SoA can instakill 20:19 so can vorpal blade for that matter 20:19 and mjo doesn't do as well against shock resistant enemies 20:19 given what you currently have in stock, i'd go with soa + vorpal 20:19 [hdf-us] [evil] bouquet (Rog Dro Fem Cha) killed the Goblin King, on T:1373 (0:10:34) 20:20 switch to angelslayer for spellcaster targets? 20:21 i'd swap out vorpal for angelslayer once in purgatory/astral plane 20:21 kk 20:22 i guess soa + vorpal gives you the highest instakill prob possible 20:22 yup 20:23 purgatory/astral = lots of spellcasters? 20:24 angels 20:24 yeah barrage blasts 20:25 krm26: oh thx too, how many gehennoms baddies are shock resis 20:25 angelslayer has 10% instakill chance vs. angels, so it's better than vorpal on astral 20:25 doesn't using angelslayer on astral mean your guardian angel will be hostile? 20:25 ^ 20:25 angels are also shock resistant 20:25 you get a guardian horse in evilhack 20:26 yeah no guardian angel 20:26 it's cooler than it sounds 20:26 and high priests are shock resistant 20:27 thx guys! 20:27 is it vs A or vs angels specifically? 20:27 A 20:27 (i think) 20:27 sounds like i should just enchant up SoA, Vorpal, Angelslayer and head down to Gehennom? 20:27 so yeah ki-rin 20:27 oh, you haven't even started gehennom yet? 20:27 [hdf-us] [evil] k2 (Pri Dro Fem Cha) had Demonbane bestowed upon her by Lolth, on T:3726 (1:07:38) 20:27 krm26: nope, cleaned up VotD (up to the priest) 20:28 i was thinking you were about to go to the planes, my bad 20:28 is it vs A or vs angels specifically? <--- anything flagged as MH_ANGEL. which currently is anything that appears as A 20:28 junk in gehennom shouldn't bother you, use vorpal against vorpal jabberwocks, soa against antimatter vortexes and black dragons -- careful with the demon lords and princes 20:29 i'd probably do soa/mjollnir while descending unless i was taking a lot of spell damage from something 20:29 yeah having vorpal blade wielded is a huge relief weapon 20:29 purple J? pfft 20:30 What's antimatter vortex? not in wiki page 20:30 brb 20:30 green v, be very cautious 20:30 don't touch it except with the soa (i.e. no dual wield), it will disintegrate stuff 20:30 just like a black dragon 20:30 touching it with the amulet or invocation items is safe too 20:30 so if you dont have soa, it is spells or disposable weapons 20:30 if you had no better weapon 20:31 well, you can touch it yourself if you have eaten your dr-recommended 2 black dragons 20:31 it will destroy gloves/boots if you attack it barehanded/kick it 20:31 but antimatter vortexes, unlike black dragons, CAN destroy dragonbane 20:31 hand of vecna should be good tho 20:32 or wielding a unique item (amulet of yendor or invocation item) 20:32 SCARY 20:32 if this is your first evilhack gehennom eggandhull, i recommend descending blindfolded to each level to spot the demon lords and princes and then immediately /? them to know what you are dealing with 20:33 but unless you get an immediate purple & your first fun will be with the vecna branch 20:33 -- it isn't mandatory but being drain resistant for that makes it more relaxing 20:34 ...SCARY 20:35 (as an example of what some of the purples are like, today i boulder-forted orcus with 300 max hp, and he had a wand of polymorph and statued my boulders and preceded to lay into me with his rod. i killed him with 150 max hp. 20:35 "purple" = demon princes? 20:35 demon lords and princes 20:36 each one has its own unique unpleasant flavor 20:36 ok, so have drain resistance (which I have) ready, and scrolls of earth + potions of paralysis 20:36 what's this talk of 'death magic resistance'? i already have refl and MR 20:36 yeah i'm a big believer in the power of the oh shit blessed scroll of earth. paralysis less so -- you can't whiff with a scroll 20:37 death magic resistance saves you from a cursed wand of death in your face 20:37 oh, i think someone recommended forging some silver elven daggers for gehennom 20:37 that was moi 20:37 cursed wand of death to my face with refl + MR only = instakill? 20:37 you can always retreat and do that if necessary -- like if you get graz'zt and are risk-averse 20:37 yeah never zap a cursed wand of death 20:38 ooo 20:38 so you may get the first demon lord on the first level below the valley, but probably not; but the first level WILL have the vecna stairs either way 20:39 vecna is big loot pinata > 4 arch-liches and kas > alhoon, liches, and vecna 20:39 is it recommended to do the vecna branch immediately ? after finishing vecna, get its hand/eye and geno L 20:40 i always do vecna as soon as i am able but you don't have to 20:40 sometimes the arch-liches and alhoons arent a bother and you don't want the vecna loot -- but infrequently 20:41 i usually take 1 uncursed genocide (alhoons), 1 blessed (hoping for both arch and master liches), and a backup if my blessed scroll blows it. i just really don't like teleporters tho 20:42 kk 20:42 i may do some alchemy or dancing to bump up my hp to 300 first 20:42 take some full healing for vecna to get rid of his withering if it gets too bad 20:43 caveat to everything i just said: i'm the guy who blew up his hesperides today, and it is probably the 20th time i've done that 20:45 kk 20:47 [hdf-us] [evil] krm26 (Wiz Dro Fem Cha) changed form for the first time, becoming a xorn, on T:125751 (1 day, 21:48:11) 20:48 sincce SoA is 'indestructible' i wonder if i can keep reading enchant weapon... :D 20:49 no 20:49 you can do that with the hand of vecna 20:57 " 20:57 Many types of potions will have their effects diminished if diluted." 20:58 does this apply to potions? 20:58 *healing potions 20:58 i've alchemized 6 diluted extra healing, got another stack of 8 normal extra healing. wondering if it's worthwhile to dilute the latter to combine into 1 stack 21:00 pretty much everything is halved (amount healed, maxhp gained). probably best to alchemize the diluted ones to full healing and leave the undiluted ones 21:00 kk 21:01 [hdf-us] [evil] krm26 (Wiz Dro Fem Cha) killed the Wizard of Yendor, on T:126140 (1 day, 22:02:15) 21:01 [hdf-us] [evil] krm26 (Wiz Dro Fem Cha) acquired the Book of the Dead, on T:126145 (1 day, 22:02:27) 21:03 [hdf-us] [evil] krm26 (Wiz Dro Fem Cha) performed the invocation, on T:126281 (1 day, 22:04:17) 21:05 is getting a bunch of tame dragons a common / necessary thing for late games?

21:44 cool 21:44 krm26 yes 21:45 cool 21:45 cuz demons 21:45 and non-demon-form infidels? 21:45 it would still affect them 21:45 if you're not an actual demon, hellfire hurts 21:49 btw, i think you should triple shadow dragon mr 21:49 to make them harder to charm 21:49 you see the sleaze i'm pulling?

after i assume? 22:18 i'm inclined to wonder if your pet somehow got displaced out of the closet 22:18 i'd think after, so you don't need to kill the quest leader for entrance 22:19 you mean vlad displaced him by teleporting into the closet?
