Moria Part 7 – Magic Items & Progress

There are quite a few magic items that you can find in this rogue-like dungeon crawler.

A few of these magic items that I discovered on the lower levels have really made an impact on game play. The Magic Canteen is invaluable. It supplies you with never ending water so that you never have to worry about dying from thirst again nor needing to seek out water holes. The Map of Stairs is another invaluable aid. When you enter a new 6×6 grid area in the dungeon (the program considers each 6×6 area a “room”) it will notify you if stairs are present. This is extremely valuable when you have dungeons containing 60 levels and you are constantly searching for a set of stairs leading down. The Power Ring has been another huge boon. It is basically much like a Ring of Regeneration. During combat you’ll find that you regain vitality back much quicker than you normally would. This is important because in the deeper levels the combat can become quite intense as the number of your enemies increase. The Gold Bar is great early on as it ensures that you receive maximum amounts of treasure after each encounter. I have reached a point in the game however where I have achieved the highest status that I can in my guild and there are no magic items that I require so at this point money is now meaningless.

I currently find myself now on level 56 of the Forest Dungeon. If the Ring is to be found in the Forest Dungeon it will be found on this particular level. I have about 75% of the level mapped out and still no luck. If the Ring is not located in this dungeon I have 3 more dungeons that I still have to search. I am hoping that I still find it here in this particular dungeon but my odds of doing so are only at 25%. Wish me luck.
