    Offense is the best defense?

    In a recent Coglin run, these were my best weapons at one point.

    The game really doesn't want me in that volcano

    Came into Orc:1 and got the message that there is a volcano entrance soon closing up. Decided to read a Scroll of Revelation and of course, it's in a cut-off part of the level where you have to move through Orc:2 to get to it. I don't have a wand of digging to get to it either, but luckily, a staircase down is right next to me.

    Even more luckily, once I'm down there, the other two staircases back up to Orc:1 are directly in sight. So, I fight my path to the first of them and get lucky again, as it leads to the cut-off part of Orc:1.

    Unfortunately, that's my luck running out, as I get greeted by Fannar the Cold-Hearted apparently warming his heart outside the volcano. And then a teleport trap right in the only path to the volcano entrance.
    Which, of course, teleports me back to the other part of Orc:1 and into a group of orcs. So, I quickly fight them off and head back to the volcano entrance and I did make it in time to get into the volcano. 🎉

    I would like to thank my character

    New PB for quickest death

    Came out the door of the starting room. Try to freeze a sleeping kobold. It wakes up and hits me once. Lethally poisoned. No resources to heal, cause I literally just started.

    Quite the hit percentage

    Not sure how this is calculated but it threw me off for a second :)

    10 years of not playing

    After having not played for about 10 years, I went and did a few runs of my old reliable, gargoyle fighter, with a couple runs going to 5 runes before my discipline failed them. What are some fun new combos to try out? I used to enjoy high elves sword&sorcery but I see that this race is gone, anything that would fill that kind of fantasy?

    Gold Dragon Scales on D:1

    Of course, I'm playing a race that can't wear them. 🙂

    Favorite race?

    Recently gave Hill Orcs more of a chance and realized, they're quite cool. Any others I should be looking at?

    Call Imp spell got changed

    Probably since 0.30, the imp summoned by "Call Imp" now has a spear to poke enemies from behind you. The imp also doesn't blink around anymore.
