I'm trying FeMo of Jyiva.

Why the fuck it's so hard. By the time I reach lair everything hurts my ass so hard it's not even fun. In my best run I had to worship Ely to be able to deal with hydras and have a shitty heal that's actually not so bad when you have 50 hp.

Then I reached slimes entrance and there was no altar. So I dived into pits, logical solution. I got killed once on pit:6 because my stealth failed just when I was sneaking past TRJ, and died again after converting because and acidic blob was too retarded to see I was worshipping his god and blasted me with acid.

Long story short: Lair:7 is too hard for a Fe at xl10, so I died after 10 steps outside pits. Send help.

> Keeping the demonic rune in a Hell-Pan roulette means an uneven rune count, though. There's a neglected monster set which can be put to work for this- the Holy monsters, currently mostly regulated to one vault in Pan and a lot of cameo / summon appearances. With constant reductions over the versions and years since the first big push to implement them contained many finnicky mechanics, Holypan has the two reliably functional and oldest angels alongside many straggler monsters not yet cut- this seems wasteful.

I support this part though.

Holy rune of Zot!

>>144609052
Yeah I'd be down for a celestial branch.
I did like the subtle flavour of the Holy realm being just another realm of Pan though.

A)Maybe those people are playing spoilerless or have little experience with similar games
B)Maybe those people are really bad at video games

I got to gehennom twice unspoiled. I quit both times though. Once I dropped the Bell somewhere without knowing I needed it. The other time I did not hhave enough candles to light the candelabrum having used tons before. I didn't know how to teleport level either so going backto minetown would be a chore.

After spoiling myself I won the first time I played a samurai. (Though I did escape in celestial disgrace once before that since I didn't realize that the altar was non-lawful)

The arena is easily one of the worst places, but also one of the easiest to cheese with the right combo since you are allowed to heal yourself if it's one of your spells.
You should be using a needle in every fight by the way.
>>
also arena is like
one of the most useless places to be

you literally only get to grab the dosh when you can beat a great wyrm of power 1vs 1 without any staves/rods/wands/potions/scrolls.
By the time you can do that, you usually sell junk found in the dungeon for 30 K a pop more efficiently.

I think most people just use arena early on for the free self-knowledge and maybe the detect traps/monsters rods.

This sounds like it's only true if your melee damage is shitty.

A warrior-type can easily kill most arena enemies in less time than it would take to get a successful needle instakill.

It's a boring genre that I dropped after a couple ascensions.

If you make a genre with simplistic combat, then why the fuck make it about combat after combat after combat.

The catch is that you're only healing while killing, and it works best with lots of things to kill.
When you go up against single targets like the Hell/Pan bosses, you have to be much more careful.

Well before it used to just turn off in hell/pan because there werent any enemies that dropped corpses.

>>144648342
the vampire tooth's base item is a dagger so if you don't have a way to confuse or paralyse things (use wands or needles!) its damage will be shit

although it's an unrand and it's vampirism is better than average in some way that I don't remember.

That just means the hallway is really wide and the size of the ascii characters doesn't reflect the size of the environment.
For example when I'm having sex it's like throwing a wiener down a hallway and when my wife's son is having sex it's like a Great Wyrm of Power barely fitting in the hallway.
