And nearly half of those drops are only +1 as opposed to anything you would actually want at that point.  :P

Or even if they're better, they're still worthless because all of your equipment is Got Tiger equipment.

Equipment is overrated, the only thing you need is books and bat form.

That doesn't mean I didn't cherish that +2 +2 Dagger of Freezing and +2 elven robe of magic resistance.

My second best akrasiac character so far is still going strong. Started out as a High Elf Conjurer (HECJ? HECO?), but got a bunch of fancy enchanted equipment early on -- including a ring that just randomly berserks me when I melee, which is occasionally. I've got Mephitic going strong, and Magic Dart and Frost bolt down to no hunger at all. 9 AC and 14 EV, which is good for so early in the game on a mage.

Hmm...I've never been a big fan of CCGs - I mean, I did and still do collect Pokemon cards, but I never got heavily into the battling and trading thing.

By definition that makes you a fan since you still buy them.

Would they work against an ice beast? Their resistance is over 9000.

Throw icicle also does non-elemental damage. Ice beasts are... shardly immune to them. 8)
It does? Huh. I could have saved that character! NOOOOOOOOOOO!

The game tells you this in the spell description!

Throw Icicle in 0.8 is only 25% resistible by rC. In 0.9, they nerfed it a bit, so I think only 60% or 40% of the damage is irresistible.

including a ring that just randomly berserks me when I melee, which is occasionally.
Drop it on the floor. Now.

Yeah, that'll kill you in short enough order unless you make sure never to melee unless you know you'll be able to finish the job.

Well, it probably would have ended up killing me, but it didn't -- and Oklob plant destroyed me, 14 AC and all, in three hits. Carelessness. siiiigh

You stayed in range of an oklob plant for three turns? It sounds to me that you don't respect oklobs enough. I suggest you try a few games of Zot Defense for a change.

I thought that I could kill it. Poor, idiotic me.

In other news here's the save. I forgot it wasn't a ring that zerked me; it was a mutation. Had I gotten much further I probably would have realized that zerking cutting off my spell access is NOT A GOOD THING.

Much more than three turns. An oklob plant won't spit every turn. He probably tried to get in melee range.

Quote from: Oklob's only attack
Spells: acid splash (3d7+7d5)

That's a max of 56 acid damage, if I'm getting it right. Don't screw with oklobs. Seriously.

Seemed an awful lot like three consecutive spits per turn. But anyway, I just fired off three consecutive spells and I went from full HP to none. That's how I'm measuring it.

EDIT: No wait, I spent the last turn going to other direction. Still 3 turns, though.

It plus slime plus it being 2 attacks per attack from me...

I tried to berserk, so I could run away, but.. It failed.
