HI HI HI so i decided to give LIVAN and i got reeeeeaallly far



This is the first time I got really lucky. Black diamond roxxxx



the second time I got really lucky, I wished for a dragon cuirass and received one made out of octiron instead of dragon hide



receiving my prize for completing the mondedr quest



showing off my stuff, not shown is the shield of the phoenix i stole from the vault in kharaz arad



reached elpuri cave



before fighting elpuri i wanted to prep up first thing i do is kill the owner of the vault and gain octiron platemail +4



strange glitch i encountered. i had max hp (as i recalled) and i decided to gulp some ommel snot. went to 80 hp from there o.O



Description of fight with Elpuri:

Apparently Elpuri found me so I decided to lure him/her to the mommo slime (Thank god for that thing it made the fight a little easier) then I proceeded to zap myself with a wand of teleport to get some distance and unloaded all of my wand of fireballs, striking, acid rain, hell even lightning (however I managed to bounce it back to me >_>)

... the result



... I die

Apparently when Elpuri attacks you it also attacks your items... Elpuri broke one of my wands which caused a chain reaction of rape.

I did deal a half a ton of damage to Elpuri though... I managed to get it from 1900 hp to 900

Here are the results of interest:












BYE I LOVE YOU GUYS

What was that small object branching off your character? A wing? Or a spike?

Some screenshots of my game currently in progress. They contain spoilers.




An assassin I encountered. Look at his weapons! All -5.


I killed Lobh-se with the help of my mithril golem


Next up Enner... the first time I melee'd him.


The Wise Farmer?


The giant mushroom (Fusanga or something) was easier than I though..
I did encounter some strong monsters down there...


Here's my current equipment.
I got the chest armour by polypiling

I have about 6 acid rain wands, 2 teleport wand and one striking.
All the others were destroyed in a explosion (damn dwarfs!)

Lets see how far I'm gonna get.

The journey continues, this time more chaotic. (Lots of SPOILERS!)




I went to GC9, but apparently it's full of mages, so I needed some electricity resistance. I searched every floor, but couldn't find any. Then I decided to go to a shop to buy one. Kharaz Arad was the closest, so I went there. (I almost got mauled in the necromancer level GC6, and I lost a leg. Loricatus was nice enough to give me a new one made of lead.)

Some time later, I accidently broke a wand of acid rain close to the entrance to Kharaz. The guards didn't like that too much and attacked...

...resulting to their death. When I got down to Kharaz, the shop keeper and his guards attacked me. I killed them pretty quickly, and stole everything valuable in the shop. No Electricity resistance!


Surprisingly the guards at the main building(?) weren't angry at all. I chatted with the Vault keeper and he just told me to keep my hands off the artifacts. There were two artifacts. The first artifact was a shield of some sort. No use for that. The other one...

...was crushed a bit earlier when I prayed to Silva. Damnit!


Later I decided to attack the guards there, to see if I could kill them.
( I had a wand of teleport at hand if I would be in danger.)
The guards went down, and the vault keeper appeared.

I quickly overpowered him. He had just the thing I was looking for: a great cloak of electricity resistance!

Then came Enquiox, the master guard. He was way more difficult, but I managed to kill him.



If you're wondering, what's up with all that sulphuric acid, that was an accident...

...there were some suicide dwarves in there, so I decided to get rid of them first. I blew them up with a wand of fireballs... But I didn't remember the gunpowder on the floor explodes too! The following explosions destroyed some of my wands ( all three acid rain wands). Good thing I had the most important ones in a chest.

Pretty soon I prayed to Loricatus, who changed my lead leg to kevlar! I thought it was wizard mode only.

When I got back to Gloomy Caves, I found out Merka wasn't very impressed with my slaughtering. He attacked me with his guards. I had to kill them, too.


Now I'm wondering, is Attnam going to be angry at me for killing Merka?


To be continued!

I could be wrong, but I believe that you can dig out caved-in areas and retrieve the items under them.

Yeah I noticed that in LIVAN all underground shopkeepers / shop guards are on the same team. So if you fight the dwarf shop guards, Merka will also get pissed at you and vice versa, but killing the dwarf shop guards will not have the rest of the dwarves angry at you. And attnam will not be angry at you either.

Last pictures of my quest to kill Elpuri.


Mellis gave a new leg! my leg strength got pretty good


Spider silk golem dead. And yes, I named my pet mammoth Kenny


I found a mondedr pass on GC9! I really wanted to see that place, so Elpuri had to wait.


Mondedr, was pretty cool, but the dungeon was full of suicide dwarves, so I gave up on it.


When I got back to GC 10, I found some trouble. Ur-Khan and Goldor? Luckily I had a wand of teleport.


Unfortunately, I had more trouble coming. Sherarax! I managed to escape her too, thanks to my teleport wand.


Soon after that I found the stairs to Elpuri's lair.
I managed to kill the mystic dark frog by teleporting right next to it, kill it in one hit, and teleport out before Elpuri got me.
I killed most of the dark frogs before facing Elpuri. I mirrored myself to get some backup.
After a long fight, Elpuri bit my wand of fireballs that I forgot to take out of my pocket...

...Resulting in Elpuri's death.


I got all my potions spilled over me. I couldn't put them all into cans.


The first time I beat Elpuri!

Notable thing:
-I killed
*Lobh-se
*Fusanga
*The population of Kharaz Arad
*Merka
-I Liberated New Attnam
-I Used only one weapon (wands don't count!)
-I only prayed to the neutral gods
-I got a leg made of kevlar and another made of flawless diamond.

Damn. I may have to try LIVAN some time. Maybe when I have a bit of free time.

Man, I hate webs. Lobh-se is hard enough with her crazy health regeneration rates. Eh, I look forward to playing it in any case
