[evilhack] Wishing suggestions?

[Janis Papanagnou]

My EvilHack tortle Monk has two wands of wishing (from a bones heap
and from the Castle) and some yet untested thrones. I am reluctant
to try the thrones, though, for I have no idea what to wish for.
My armor is restricted (for tortles) and the three pieces that are
allowed are already quite good. My weapon is also a good artifact.
Magic markers cannot be wished for (IIUC). - So what to wish for?
One thing I'd like is flying (from amulet), but my amulet slot is
already covered by an amulet of magic resistance. From the wikipage
the "Ring of P'hul" (free action, magic resistance when worn and
disease resistance) looks very interesting; it would also free the
amulet slot for flying. (Its disease resistance may not be that
interesting any more now since I genocided locusts.) - I suppose
I can safely wish for artifacts if I never wished for any? (IIUC,
number of existing artifacts doesn't matter for the wishing odds?)

Magic markers can actually be wished for. Magic lamps too if you need permalight.
What is your alignment? I think you need to be chaotic to wish for Ring of P'hul.
Maybe this recent tortle monk ascension can give you some more ideas?

Notice that Gauntlets of Purity and Ashmar can't be wished for, they need to be forged.
Dragonbane are gloves that grant reflection and acid resistance, it's a popular wish.

[G. Raznop]

Re. the above ascension, in hindsight I wouldn't have made the Gauntlets of Purity - sticking with Dragonbane would have given me more flexibility elsewhere.
Your first wish for an artifact will be successful - the Wiki has more details: https://nethackwiki.com/wiki/EvilHack#Wishing_for_artifacts
If you are neutral, possibly The Eye of the Aethiopica?
The Eyes of the Overworld will allow you to free up the amulet slot for flying (have a backup plan for MR when the wizard is awake).
To partly answer your Master Kaen questions in the other thread, the above character had 195 HP and an AC of -20 when completing the quest. Master Kaen was defeated from within a boulder fort on the upstairs, throwing shuriken - but being helped by a tame Balrog on the outside - I suspect the Balrog did most of the damage.

The Eyes are out of my reach, unfortunately, due to the permanent
alignment abuse record. (I wouldn't want that huge permanent luck
recovery penalty when killing the quest leader.)

If you have "gravely abused your alignment", then yes, you'd need to kill your quest leader to win the game. If you have only "severely abused your alignment" then you have a good chance of being allowed to keep the quest artifact.
You can leave the quest branch with the Eyes without talking to the quest leader and worry about them later (the Bell won't work for the invocation until they've been dealt with) - flying makes exploring Gehonnom much more fun!
Even the permanent luck penalty isn't so bad - just maximise luck before starting the ascension run. I've never noticed an issue.

I think that's it, meanwhile - I ate two giants, at least, in
addition to the already reported (three) deeds...

Another poster poster gave a hint that even with a low (lower)
value the odds are not guaranteeing it (are not that good), so
I abstained from following a conduct that quickly spoiled the
whole game to a severe degree from the beginning after having
violated it by accident.

Post by G. Raznop

You mean to use it during Gehennom exploration and give it back
to the quest leader just before the invocation rite? - Well,
that could be an option; to have it at least part time of the
game...

...but would it be worth the risk of doing that deadly quest?
(I fear the possibility of Kaen zapping the boulder fort open.)

And in Nethack or Slashem I rarely needed to rely on it. It's
fine to explore Gehennom faster, but (at least in those other
variants) I had MR mostly from dragon scales, and a magic lamp,
scrolls of magic mapping, and a pick-axe, were good enough for
fast exploration.

Post by G. Raznop
- flying makes exploring Gehonnom much more fun!

Yeah, flying is my preferred way of late game traveling because
of the pool-casting spell-casters. The instant death-experience
is otherwise not fun (which I learned in Slashem). And all that
lava in the recent variants' Gehennom dungeon layouts makes it
yet more precious.

I have no experience how it works out. Practically I travel and
handle the more difficult games (literally) at the bleeding edge,
so any bias in luck may be fatal. With additional restrictions,
like the armor (thus AC) restriction that tortles have I am very
reluctant to challenge my luck here.

Ah, okay. I'd need to find some other means. - Maybe conflict
would turn the E and X against the quest nemesis? (Don't know.)

Now I first focus on the Ice Queen level. I downloaded from a
current Hardfought game today a ttyrec to see what to expect
there in practice; I've seen the player used a lot of attack
magic. And I must understand what it means when the Wiki entry
speaks about "defeating" but not killing these dogs that guard
the Ice Queen.[*]

That player turned out to be a good spell-caster and was able
to cast fireballs that did _a lot_ of damage with every cast
to the targeted square and around; a very supporting spell for
the Ice quest's inhabitants. (But I'm no Wizard and haven't
the Eye of Aethiopica for fast PW restoration.) But probably
feasible. (I still have some concerns about the dragons there
and the 'Z' special monsters and some others.) The player did
that quest, but in the attempt to free Pegasus, he seems to
have hit him with acid. (The player tried to get access to
Pegasus' room by destroying the iron bars with acid potions.
Would that work? - That was also my idea to try [in Slashem]
but failed in that variant. - How else can Pegasus be freed?
I've seen in another game that striking would destroy such
iron bars, if I'm not mistaken?) Anyway; Pegasus got angry,
the pacified Ice queen got angry, and (IIRC) also her dogs.
So he left the place through a portal opened with the Eye. -
What would the (announced) prize for freeing Pegasus be?

This was the fireball spell, cast at a 'skilled' level - unfortunately monks can't get 'skilled' in attack magic. But there is another way to get a similar effect.

Wielding a potion of acid and then fighting ('F') in the direction of the bars will dissolve the bars. Pegasus can be tamed like a normal horse.

Mind to spoil me, please?

What comes to my mind is just the ordinary zap pf a wand of fire,
a fire horn, and a burning potion of oil cocktail. But these are
rare resources. Scrolls of fire are also [in other variants] not
that effective. And grenades [Slashem] seem to not be existing?

Wielding a potion of acid and then fighting ('F') in the direction of
the bars will dissolve the bars. Pegasus can be tamed like a normal

Thanks!

Ah, of course; that was the whole point of doing that quest. :-)

Now I first focus on the Ice Queen level. [...]

Entered the Ice Queen quest...
First surprise was ...
I threw my +6 spears at a monster and noticed that some of the spears
were missing; I walked across that "unlit" area to pick them up, but
I couldn't find them.
...the chasm. I'm glad that before entering the quest a wish went for
the amulet of flying that I immediately put on to replace my amulet of
magic resistance. So only _by accident_ I survived the first level of
that quest. I mistook the chasm for the typical well known dark areas.
(It seems that I found another instance of instant-death surprise for
the unaware. Or would the game have prevented stepping on that area
without flying/levitation? - Certainly I'm not inclined to try that.)
The second surprise was that my special artifact weapon insta-killed
that Abominable Snowman - yes I weakened it before with spears but
he still had a lot of HPs -, and also (one of) the woolly mammoth(s).
Since these foes were marked with difficulty level 5 I didn't expect
that short work.
Meanwhile reached the third quest level... - very populated - enough
room for deaths...

Entered the Ice Queen quest... First surprise was ... [...]

Finished that quest. - Got the Bag, got the tame Pegasus.
Next surprise - still at Ice Queen quest level 3 - was that monsters
use wands of polymorph against player. A zap at my Monk, he changes
form and his armor dropped to the floor. Another zap at him polymorphed
his three pieces of highly enchanted magical armor to something mundane
(that, as a turtle, my Monk cannot even wear). - Not really fun to
restart the game, all the preparation effort, anew ("Do not pass Go").
(Or was it just a hint from the RNG-god; an excellent moment to #quit?)
Next step; continuing almost naked back to the Monk's level 1 stash.

It is utterly and completely vicious. MR protects against polymorph attack.

can't be wished for; I probably confused that with polypile outcomes.)

I actually have these gauntlets, though stashed in my bag. Because of

pair of +5 gauntlets of dexterity that I got from sacrifices (IIRC).

I've read that the Gauntlets of Purity cannot be worn with abused
alignment, so they are out of reach. The Ashmar looks quite fine,
but as a tortle I've already hungerless regeneration, so not all
advantages actually improve my tortle. I'd probably also need the
shield slot for reflection (but don't recall my gear at the moment
and don't recall whether I have the artifacts necessary to forge).

You need to be piously aligned to wear the Gaunlets of Purity - but this is your normal alignment record (as shown by a stethoscope to self), not the permanent one. Further down in the dumplog you'll see "You have gravely abused your alignment" - this isn't a problem.

Ashmar also provides acid resistance and half physical damage. I was wearing it at the time of ascension for the Plane of Air, and never bothered to take it off afterwards.
By the way, congratulations on defeating the Ice Queen. Also being polymorphed and then having your equipment polymorphed is one of the worst things the game can throw at you - well done for pushing on!

Yeah, I see its advantages. It's only the fewer slots I have that
makes me hesitate where I then should get reflection from.

Another thing is that I lost my helm of speed; tortles are slow,
and they cannot wear boots. - I do have a strong bias for speed
and ponder where to best get that from now.

And magic resistance; swapping the amulet of MR (I think I even
wished for that) with flying (or reflection, if I'd get it) is
also an ambiguous decision.

That would have to be very well tuned since the few armor options
turtles have will have impact on spell casting (ability), thus my
"daily-use" spell power demands are not that high. The strength
factor I also consider not a primary factor since as a turtle I
already have higher strength and the Ice Queen's artifact bag
greatly extends carrying capacity. Only the option of picking up
and carrying boulders would be a distinct feature, but one I not
(not yet, to be honest) value that high.

Helms of speed are an exception to the usual objects material rules - they can be made out of leather, cloth or dragonhide, which don't interfere with spellcasting.
"Giant strength" gives you a strength of 25, but (unfortunately) does not allow you to pick up boulders - only actual giants can do that.
Gauntlets of Purity are also made of silver for extra silver damage. They don't interfere with spellcasting.

Okay, I had the two artifacts necessary for the Ashmar in my stash,
and so I forged it. Two surprises; it was of enchantment -1, and it
blasted me when I put it on. (The NH-Wiki says it's a 'non-aligned'
artifact, that's why I'm a bit surprised - or is it once again the
alignment record that makes it blast me?)

Two blessed enchantment scrolls made the Ashmar +2 now, and it seems
I can stash my two shields (a blessed +4 steel shield of light, and
an uncursed +0 gold shield of reflection named Perseus'); especially
the golden shield is very heavy (66), and the shield of light is as
heavy as the Ashmar (37). (I'm carrying too much, as usual.)

I see in the commit that it's aligned to dwarves, that very likely explains the blast (same happens with Dramborleg).
The -1 enchantment sounds like a bug to me... normally the result of forging takes the enchantment of the second item.

Quite some questions arise, but one I'd like to ask; why are there

you won't ever get one by wishing, but you'll get only the scales.)

I've seen a wish-tracker at the EU Hardfought server. It contains
the text as typed by the player, it seems. I edited, structured,
sorted, and summarized the entries; you can find it below...
Quite some questions arise, but one I'd like to ask; why are there
so many wishes for "dragon scale mail"? (I thought I've read that
you won't ever get one by wishing, but you'll get only the scales.)

Nice overview! The wishes for dragon scale mail are probably from older versions when they still existed.
Not sure if it gets logged if a new player who doesn't know the new rules wishes for them.

An atlatl is the base item for the new archaeologist quest artifact, Xiuhcoatl. It's basically just a stronger spear. You can't obtain it in any way other than wishing or bones, similar to vanilla's stormbringer, so I guess someone just wished for one for the hell of it.
The Sword of Bheleu was an artifact that was planned to be placed into a side branch, but was repurposed into the Sword of Kas. It was technically in the game, so maybe you could wish for it? I'm not sure, I started playing evilhack long after its original version was repurposed.
