ADOM : brightest career ever

jfbbis · 03-01-2004, 01:34 PM

Some of my favourites races don't know how to swim , which is annoying, so I decided to make them "learn" the skill. If skills improve by practice, I reasoned, maybe they can be built from scratch too. As soon as my brand new dark elven archer was in the hamlet, I had him drop all his things (so they don't rust or be drenched) and dive in one of the small ponds. Followed a cycle of drown, first aid, drown when suddenly a goodwife (one of those pesky yellow T) walks to the place where I dropped my things (on the OTHER side of the pond) and begins to pick the gold coins, the crossbow, nearly everything of value. Then she walks away to a group of other goodwives. My archer scrambles frantically to the group, still half drowning, and promptly kills the first goodwife he mets with his bare hands. Not the good one ! He goes to another but this one HITS HIM, he bleeds and as he was already low on PV, he DIES. There it is :
The Dark Elven archer was slayed by a goodwife in a small hamlet. While totally naked :o
Presently his successor is stuck with a cursed 400 (count 'em) stones axe in level 6 of the Druid Dungeon. Repeat after me : characters without the Detect Item status will not try unknown weapons "just to see if they are better than the one they have".

Or don't do it unless you have some holy water!

I would have tried the axe, too.

Hahaha this game is so great. I feel like starting a dynasty of all of my failed attempts.

I knew that it was not a good idea to eat this black druid corpse ! Now I exhale sulphur ! And, If I needed the corpse to prove that I've killed him, I'll feel very very dumb!

what game?

jfbbis · 03-01-2004, 03:55 PM

Adom : www.adom.de

Quickly figured such out and have began to play! Now I am into the game and know no commands, and on the website it doesn't have a list of buttons. Anyone know where I could find such a thing?

Hit Shift-? for help. Also, there should a text manual included in the game, and you can view it online, also.
