Playing Rogue Day 2
I burned through quite a few characters this time. First up was save2600:
Things were going fairly well until i hit level 4. I entered a room with a slime and started attacking it.
But i kept missing and it kept splitting. Needless to say i was overwhelmed with slimes and succumbed
to them.
Next up was ianoid:
I made it all the way to level 8 but through out my adventure ran into quite a few rattlesnakes. Just so
you know rattlesnakes poison you which lowers your strength by one. I had fought so many my
strength had lowered to 2 out of 16. I barely could kill anything and i had no magical items to remove
the effect so a lowly slime put an end to my adventure.
Next up was AtariBrian:
Things were going well for me until level 8. I stumbled into a teleportation trap which teleported me
to another portion of the map and confused me for a bit. There also was a mad centaur in the room
that decided it didn't like me so he finished me off in quick fashion.
Next up was nitrosport:
I was doing well until level 7 where for some reason i couldn't hit anything including the zombie
that ate my brains.
And last up was FibroFreak78:
I've saved the best for last. I got pretty far with this character even though they had a timely death
as well. Things didn't start off so well though. I found a set of banded mail amor. I knew it was much
better than what i was wearing but didn't have a scroll of identify on me. I took a chance and put it on
and what do you know it was cursed (-4 banded mail). The problem with cursed items like many
games, once you put it on it can't be removed without some type of magical item. While wandering
around i ended up in this room.
Through sheer luck i survived this encounter and here is where my luck turned to the good. From all
the treasure i picked up i was able to remove the curse on the armor and replace it with something
better and also collected multiple enchant weapon scrolls. When it was all said and done i had a
+5/+3 mace. I now was able to kill things in one shot that used to take 3-4 shots. Unfortunately my
luck ran out on level 13 when i fell into a pit and ended up at the feet of a nasty troll who killed me.
This is as far as i've made it so far. I finally got out of level 7-8 but now i must start anew.
And now the high score table:
I'm not sure i will be posting any more updates until next week. Me and the wife are going out of town for the weekend down to Miami for a Sci-fi convention. But you never know.
