Dwarf is "Steve Enchantmentbreaker, Nerevarine."

Spoiler: Skills & Equipment (click to show/hide)

Sword level 2 (300), Armor level 2 (300), novice shield (200?)

Equipment:  All copper except for the sword
-helm (30)
-chain mail (120)
-chain leggings (30)
-shield (30)
-high boots 2x (60)
-gauntlet, left & right (60)
-Bronze sword (150)

So that leaves me with $230 (I think).

All done.  To explain the name, I beat Morrowind recently with a character of the name "Steve" with whom I broke the game with enchantments.

If you want my advice, lowering the starting money and attributes won't make things better. In fact I believe it would make things worse. The problem, as I discovered is that weapons in relation to armour of the same quality are far too overpowered. Lower the damage amount weapons do in the raws.

Maybe, I dunno.  The main problem I was noticing is that the winnings weren't really enough to buy anything.  I guess I could increase winnings by a bit.  I was also planning on decreasing weapon damage, but not announcing it.

Okay, made my decision.  Lowering weapon damage is the easiest way to fix everything.  Sorry Legolord, you're going to have to add another $700 to your character.

Was it with the "Soulbind" exploit?  Using that, I managed to get enough strength to kill Dagoth Ur.

Sorry Legolord, you're going to have to add another $700 to your character.

He doesn't HAVE to. Personally, I'd like to see him fight just as he is.

Speaking of which, no upgrades for me. I'm saving my money.

[crash2455]

True that.  It would be advisable, as he'd be $700 lower than anybody else.  Also, your abstaining means that DF Newb is the only one we're waiting on.  He did give permission to automate his advancements, so I'll do that as a last resort.

[LegoLord]

Nah, I'm going with the upgrade.  Sword level 2 (200) and Armor level 2 (200).  Then a bronze sword (150) instead of a copper sword (+60)

So I should have 230 left.  Unless I mistyped or my calculator's broken.

_{(Since you asked, the enchant breaking I did was just making a lot of fortify enchant 10 sec stuff.  Also abused the fact that ranged constant effect [say 0-47 in a skill] allowed for higher potential.  47 constant effect sanctuary is a bit overpowered, especially with the ancestor guardian power.  The range made it more like 40 sanctuary though, normally.  Don't have the patience for the full effect.)}

[crash2455]

Alright, just append it to your current character sheet so I don't miss it later.

[LegoLord]

Done.

Could have said that the totals add up...

Ok, new character skills:

Armor (lvl 1) 100pts
Shield (lvl 1) 200pts
Axe (lvl 2) 300pts

leaving 100pts spare which I then use to purchase 2 copper gauntlets, gotta protect those hands!

So the new character should look like this:

Name: Joe Fearless
Gender: Male
Profession: Murderous surgeon

Skills:
Armor (lvl 1) 100pts
Shield (lvl 1) 200pts
Axe (lvl 2) 400pts

Equipment:
Copper Plate Mail (200pts)
Bronze Greaves (150pts)
Bronze Shield (75pts)
Bronze Helm (75pts)
Copper gauntlet x 2 (60pts)
Iron Battle Axe (300pts)

Total: 1460 points

I would like to to get level 1 swordsdwarf and level 1 wrestler and I am back

[crash2455]

You already have 1 level of swordsdwarf.  Getting level 2 would cost $200.

Also, I'm nearly finished with the next fight, but I need to get to bed.  Expect the report sometime tomorrow.

Cheesebrains, an lightly armored warrior who felled her previous opponent in three easy steps:

Who is deadliest?

This round brings the question of strength versus speed to the table: One warrior totally unencumbered and agile, the other lightly encumbered but very strong.  Thanks to our simulator, masterfully crafted by Bay12Games and now outfitted for 5 matches, we will be able to examine the full fighting force of these two fearsome combatants:

Aftermath:

I'm mildly surprised this fight went the way it did.  Cheesebrains actually had a pretty good chance to win, but she blew it by hitting Org in the finger.  I guess it eventually comes back to luck if both fighters are equal.

Congrats Org, you made Rank 2.  Take your $400 and spend it wisely.

Also, I've started taking a few more dramatic liberties with the fights.  I'll cover the key moments of the fight I posted, but I'll add something in here or there to make things make sense.

Ranks 2 and 3 in Wrestling.

Yey! Another win!
