I tried improving it on an anvil as well, but it ended up getting a negative bonus, so it’s a bit worse than it was when I bought it. I also have the Cloak of Sagan, which I bought at a shop and spent most of my money to get. This is your average higher quality item. I kept upgrading this hat on the Anvil of Krong, so it’s gotten stronger over time, but again, it’s nothing special. I have the Hat of Bergstrom, which I picked up off the floor of level 2 when I accidentally went downstairs before even starting to explore level one. I simply replaced my gear with better pieces as I went along. There’s far too many stats in Dungeons of Dredmor that I couldn’t even list, let alone understand, so I didn’t have any plane in the gear department. Finally, I went with Vampirism for the heck of hit, primarily because I wanted to try it out, and because I wanted to name the character Hungry. Burglary and Perception were decided on for the exact same reason, and Assassination was additionally picked for bonus damage. I went for the combination of Unarmed Art so I don’t need weapons and added Master of Arms and Skillful Dodger on top of that for survivability. I have very little experience with Dungeons of Dredmor, so for my first character since forever, I wanted to avoid the very complex crafting system and be as little dependent on gear as possible. Oh, and he is also a former Assassin turned Vampire. He is also trained in the skills of Artful Dodging, is a Master of Arms and quite a proficient Burglar. His Perception could certainly use some improvement, but he is above average in that area as well. Hungry has mastered the skill of Unarmed Art and no monster can survive his roundhouse kicks. Since it’s difficult to write about roguelikes in session report style, I have for you here a report on just a single character.

Dungeons of Dredmor is a roguelike I’ve had for a very long time and even played obsessionally.
