Speedy massacre (A tutorial how-to for quickly killing things...quickly.)

(1/6) > >>

MuseOD:
Want to know how to easily and quickly kill foes? Always dying? Never fear! Help is here!
I've noticed that the following method kills anything living in around five hits.I am excellent at 1v1 combat, but not at group combat.
1)Sneak up on foe, strangle
2)Strangle till foe passes out
3)Stab foe in the throat
4)BITE OUT THE EYES!!
5)Feel satisfied.

ITT: We share methods from 1v1 combat to 1v150 combat.

MoonLightBird:
For groups I use aimed attacks at the legs and feet. If you get a good hit in they won't be able to stand. Then you can out run them to go do the same thing to the rest. Then just pick them off as you will. The only problem with this is that bow/crossbow users can still kill you at range, so it is a good idea to break their arms too.

hector13:
Blunt attacks, even using the flat side or pommel of a bladed weapon, tend to break bones. This causes pain, which generally cause things which feel pain and are not undead (including you) to pass out within a few turns. I made a warlord (albeit, not a very good one) pass out on the same turn I shattered his hand.

Free hit on any part of the body while they're down! If you're in a hurry, take off/smash in that head. Otherwise, feel free to break every joint with wrestling! Then see how many body parts you can pinch off before they bleed to death.

Friendstrange:
Step 1: Sneak.
Step 2: Hit things until they die.
Step 3: Find a mummy.
Step 4: Hit things until they die again.

Repeat as needed for maximum satisfaction.

MuseOD:
so: the best thing to start with in this game, is hammer/mace/axe, crossbow, knapper and wrestler?
