YAVP: FoFi of Gozag (15 runes, finally!)

Major takeaways:

  1. Chaos is awesome if you have the means to compensate for occasional adverse effects. The combination of the Mace of Variability with a longbow of Chaos made Pandemonium and Hell significantly easier and fun. For instance it was fun to see Lom Lobon - one of my dreaded past adversaries - wandering around confused while I bashed him :smile:
  2. The new talisman based shapeshifting means that a fighter can be in lichform and wield deadly melee weapons. This wouldn’t have been possible before.

Has has always been one of those things that is really fun, until I’m suddenly fighting something that kills me when it shouldn’t have been a threat. I find it is really good on ranged weapons, but I tend to avoid it like the plague on melee weapons.

Congrats on the win!

I hadn’t realized until now that longbows of chaos were a thing. Making me want to start a new game and check it out. Love the idea of being able to unleash really impactful effects on any foe with the power of chaos and then frantically resetting the fight when luck turns bad instead. Thanks for for AAR! :slight_smile:

Edit: Just now realizing that you are a Formicid, with no means to just zip out of things go wrong! What did you do when fights started tilting the wrong way? Butterflies, summons and other?

In no particular order:

  1. Staying close to the walls, and digging a small crooked passage where possible. Found through trial and error (mostly error :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: ) that facing one enemy at a time improved my chances significantly.
  2. Summoning, and butterflies (the latter were very hard to come by though)
  3. General prep - I’d pay Gozag for might + resistance + invisibility + heal wounds before a fight started
  4. Investing in stealth - this really helped, in spite of the armour

Always super interesting to see what faery dragon scales turn out to in a given game :)
