Gotta survive
« on: April 03, 2008, 07:41:00 am »

Gotta survive is a adventurer challenge. I will repeatedly bring an adventurer into mortal danger, and it will be up to you to lead him out of it. Once he manages to travel away from the scene, you can vote on the next szenario.


The current situation:

My adventurer is ultra migthy and very tough, has an exceptional iron halberd and exceptional iron plate mail. Most of his skills are under-developed, I powerleveled him via swim-sleeping.

And he is in the middle of a goblin fortress, right next to the entrance of the western tower. North east to him is a second tower. He was spotted by a goblin drunk, who is now headless. North east to him is a goblin archer. Inside of the western tower are also 3 archers. There are not enough trees to take cover.

Now it is up to you to find a way out.


Will he:

[]Enter the tower, fight against 3 archers and several other goblins untill he can hide again

[] Charge the bowman in the north east

[]Throw coins at the bowman in the north east(distance is 6 tiles, nivice thrower)

[]RUN like there is a GCS behind him

[]other

first to get 3 votes will be done

First comes the Survivor's Guilt thread, and now this...  Are you lot trying to tell me something about my updating habits?  Or am I just pretending that everything has to do with me?


Anyways, what's his shield skill?  Unless it's really high (you mentioned underdeveloped...), I'd suggest avoiding the archers and getting into hiding as soon as possible.

I think that he gon' die purty soon though...  He's got exactly the wrong stats and skills for his position.

other : throw the halberd at the goblin in the north tower, get another shield out of his backpack and rush to the 3 archers and bash them with his shields.

I doubt you'd make it out alive, in any case. Bowmen are very nasty.

I vote that you charge the Archer.

SHARK WRESTLIIIIING!

Get your stats high enough to make the carp run away from you. Then progress down a narrow river, herding all the carp and other fishes you meet away from you. Try to take a screenshot with as many carp in it as you can manage.

I vote for a wrestler. Everything into wrestling except one point to swimming and shield using. Then go to a goblin fort, find a random goblin. Beat him into the ground, take his stuff, run away and buy the best weapon you can find.
This is how most of my adventurers go. If you can get a goblin who is alone then you're set. Otherwise you're dead.

I thought the drunk was headless?

Anyhow, I vote for hardcore sheild user, with novice swimmer and a little power leveling via sleepswimming. From there, wrest a weapon from the first thing you meet and you'll be set. Or, that's how I'd do things. And it never turns out well... Or boring...

I vote Wrestler.

Also: Told you that situation was TOO dire. Enemy bowmen = death 99.9999999999999% of the time.

And those statistics are stretching your survival rating, honestly.

Now you see, you gave me the idea to sleep in a brook, and a hippo bit my head off.

I blame you for the time I spent sleeping.
