| − | === Use a [[bag]] ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | Start using a [[bag]] as soon as you can. A bag protects items from damage and theft.
| |
| − | | |
| − | First use your [[pet]] or an altar to curse-test the bag. If the bag is cursed, then you have to price-id it. A bag that sells for $1 is a [[sack]] and you can safely use it even if it is cursed. A unidentified bag that sells for more than $1 is not safe to use if it is cursed.
| |
| − | | |
| − | If you find a noncursed bag, put it on the ground and loot it. If the bag is a [[bag of tricks]], it will bite you for 1d10 damage. You cannot use a [[bag of tricks]] to keep your items in, although you can use it for other things later.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Set up a [[stash]] ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | Set up a [[stash]] as soon as you find a [[large box]] or a [[chest]] that you can open. Bring your unidentified items to your stash. You can protect your stash by rolling a [[boulder]] on it when you are not using it.
| |
| − | | |
| − | You can have more than one stash. Later on, after you have a noncursed [[bag of holding]], you can consolidate stashes.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Dig behind [[iron bars]] ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | If you see iron bars, and you have a digging tool, then dig around the bars. You will find a scroll behind the bars. There may be other items along with the scroll. The scroll (or one of the scrolls) is a [[scroll of teleportation]], a very handy [[escape item]].
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Pray strategically ===
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Your [[prayer timeout]] is usually about 800 to 1000 turns. (As with many NetHack features, the exact formula is complicated.) Whenever you pray, use the [[name]] command to name one of your individual objects, such as a key, with the turn number that you prayed on. I use the notation [pray:1234] to mark the turn number. Later on, when you get in a jam, you can check the turn counter to decided whether to pray or whether to try another tactic.
