A Nice Find and some questions.(long)
Timo Pietilä
This is a best warrior char that I have made this far and it might win.
If anybody have any comments/suggestions I would appreciate it.
Short history of this char.
I tried about 10 Half-Troll warriors before choosing Dunadan.
Difficult uniques that nearly killed me:
Gorbag Just too much OoD when I encountered him first time.
Azog I tought that it is just another orc shaman
Tiamat lacking double resist *really* hurts. 4 separate
fights before success
Tarrasque 5 separate fights. I finally chose to carry some
potions of rheat and rcold just in case and it helped.
I did also suffered one knock out situation and one case with 0 HP.
Gravity hounds were problem with first case. Off screen breath
teleported me into middle of room full of them and while K'O teleported
me into corridor behind some rubble <phew>. Second was stupidity that
nearly killed me: killing some light hounds ignoring damage done without
noticing that there are something *else* breathing me too. Inertia
hounds. Zero HP. No death. Yet.
Here is that Nice Find. ( I snipped some irrelevant information off)

-------------Then a suggestion part-----------
I have killed every unique except Carcharoth, Sauron and Morgoth.
What should I fear? Any suggestions for final battle? I won't use "sea
of runes"-tactic or abuse LOS. How many potions of healing and *healing*
I need?

It can be activated for...
dispel evil (x5)
h) Balance Dragon Scale Mail (-2) [30,+23] {GChaosWyrm 3850'}
I might change PDSM to this if I find Cubragol. Lacking Nexus and Nether
isn't bad with 1000+ HP and +30 speed.
i) The Augmented Chain Mail of Caspanion (-2) [16,+20] (+3)
I don't need this (PDSM has everything this gives me)
j) The Metal Brigandine Armour of the Rohirrim [19,+15] (+2) {GV 1800'}
k) The Full Plate Armour of Isildur [25,+25] (+1)
l) The Mithril Plate Mail of Celeborn (-3) [35,+25] (+4) {Floor 3600'}
It can be activated for...
genocide
This activation is something I would like to have.
m) a Cloak of Aman [1,+23] (+3 to stealth) {Demon Pit 4500'}
It provides resistance to nexus.
*ONLY* useful cloak besides Colannon this far.
n) The Large Leather Shield of Celegorm [4,+20] {GV 1600'}
o) a Shield of Deflection of Resistance [10,+32] {GCV 3700'}
Better AC than Celegorm. I weared this until I found Thorin.
p) The Hard Leather Cap of Thranduil [2,+10] (+2) {GCV 3700'}
q) The Set of Leather Gloves 'Cambeleg' (+8,+8) [1,+15] (+2) {LTitan
3100'}

t) The Broad Sword 'Arunruth' (3d5) (+20,+12) (+4) {GV 1800'}
u) The Scimitar 'Haradekket' (2d5) (+9,+11) (+2 attacks) {GV 2850'}
This and Glaive go very near for damage done /round if I can use RoDam.
w) The Great Axe of Durin (4d4) (+10,+20) [+15] (+3) {GCV 2000'}
This was my weapon of choice very long time.
x) The Mace 'Taratol' (3d4) (+12,+12) {GCV 2000'}
It can be activated for...
haste self (20+d20 turns)
Again activation is worth considering. Damage done/round is a lot less
than with Glaive.

I've never found a Power Dragon suit (in any balanced or semi-balanced
variant), and haven't looked them up in forever, but don't they provide
resist confusion, either directly or via chaos? If so, check to make certain
you are using your best melee weapon...you are going to need some big
offense for the last couple monsters.
Good luck!

Yep. I did that dump right after finding it and i was using GreenDSM
before it. That is why my weapon of choice had Rconf. As soon as I
recalled back to town I changed to better weapon (Anduril IIRC).
