Für das vaterland.

I used to reach deeper with any character in any games

I mean, I could manage to reach lair with FeMo without a god just because I wanted to play jyiva, now I splat MiFi at D:5, just for an example.

Why am I getting so shit at these games? Did I just burn out? What should I play to rekindle my passion for roguelikes?

Fedhas is a pretty fun god to worship.

You're not paying attention to your defenses and offense so you're playing D:5 like you're at d:14 and can just tab all the monsters you're fighting now

Sil, dynahack, Infra Arcana, Brogue

Oh man, I've never had so many choices before. I kind of wish I hadn't burned all my enchant armor scrolls on the fire dragon armor, but I'd probably have died already without the extra defense it gave me until I found all this shit.

Where does one go to get their third rune normally? If I don't die by then I guess I'll decide whether to go straight for my first win or man up and go for more runes.

Things are starting to look up for the little snot. Starting to get some good quality gear and accumulating damage/aoe/hex wand drops including the ever vital wand of heal monster. Mined enough sheckles for a pokeball. Hopefully this'll get me some good ac and I can get a horse/unruly horse without dying in the process.

Mining for jelly pokeballs and maybe a novice priest on the horizon to get the adventurer band together for the warg quest. May just scoop around stronghold:4 and go down with 8 novice rangers and my jellies.

Vaults is usually the fifth rune, although the Abyss is also a choice. The slime pits could be done too but you better be ready to kill the royal jelly at the end.

Hu feels so frail and helpless

This character died to an orc warrior (with his exact same gear) from full health, not even managing to take half his health before being shitstomped, when I got bored and decided to let tab guide me

The dry spell on comsumables didn't help either

They have a base AC almost as high as your base weapon damage man and you don't have exceptional stats, defenses, or weapons. Did you engage or flee and reengage at max range to chuck a couple javs in him?
