Talk:Ruins of Moria

Here is, as best as I can tell, the up-to-date code for the Ruins of Moria dungeon branch for UnNetHack (and also standalone patch?)

From what I can tell, it should be not too hard to get a decent-looking article from this file.

If someone could do that, that would be great!

This is my observation of Moria after two runs through it. I'm making a third run for purposes of this entry.

The first level you arrive in a big room. Outside the room has a good deal of lava and scattered gems. This level has no real special charecticis. This level stayed the same through out both trips. Here is a screen shot.

The second level is also static. It appears to be a homage to Gandolf fighting the Balrog in LOTR. The level consists of one narrow bridge surrounded by lava. The bridge has two hole in it. The one confirmed monster is a unique demon called Durin's Bane. He is guranteed to be generated with a +7 fireproof bullwhip. He flies and is fairly strong in melee. He will fly out onto the lava at times so while I'd advised a player to take him out with wands/spells targeting while on lava makes you lose the bullwhip so I'd attack him solely while he is on the bridge.

This is a image of level two.
