Azzkikr has been a NetHack 3.4.3 player since September 29, 2006. He can frequently be seen on games on nethack.alt.org, and channel #nethack on Freenode, mostly on times after 19:00, GMT+2.

Games

Azzkikr started NetHack playing as Valkyrie only (with a few changes to Monk). After some time and numerous deaths and annoyances, Wizard was his next choice, until he came to the conclusion it was too hard. Therefore, he went back to playing Valkyrie only. His aim is to ascend first, before playing other classes. 74 games as Valkyrie have been played at the time of writing.

Often, he applies different strategies for his Valkyrie games. They range from sane strategies, to total whacked strategies. For instance, sometimes he is quaffing every potion and reading every scroll at early levels in the hope of identifying them quickly for usage. Other times, major precautions are taken (as in price-ID'ing, checking BUC status etc.). Sometimes, quaffing and reading every scroll tends to be very helpful. Although after identifying a few scrolls he stops applying this strategy and starts playing normally.
