Linked "speed ascension"; any comments on it?

Hi. I linked "speedrun" to "speed ascension"; it's mostly on by-turn speedrunning - any comments on differences? Thanks! -Actual-nh (talk) 01:12, 11 February 2021 (UTC)

That page focuses on using Wizard and polyself strategies to achieve a low turncount. The advice there differs from a Wizard realtime speedrun, which will waste more turns on movement and can use more time consuming strategies, and has no advice to offer for Valkyries. --Luxidream (talk) 09:55, 11 February 2021 (UTC)

Castle - huh?

I don't understand what you mean by "Thus, the best way to complete the quest now would be to get the wand of wishing at the Castle first." This doesn't complete the quest now. -Actual-nh (talk) 04:04, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

Thanks, fixed. It now reads "Thus, the best course of action would be to get the wand of wishing at the Castle, which will give us the means to enter the quest." --Luxidream (talk) 04:56, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

Sokoban 1st level

"walking through the pits"? -Actual-nh (talk) 00:33, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

You aren't prevented from moving through the pits on the first level, allowing you to skip it. --Luxidream (talk) 00:37, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

Random rings/wands from Sokoban

"random rings and wands can be essential to your final ascension kit" - via polypiling, or on their own? I'm thinking the first. -Actual-nh (talk) 21:44, 20 February 2021 (UTC)

Either, you can find a random ring of conflict, for instance.--Luxidream (talk) 22:44, 22 February 2021 (UTC)

Fireproofing armor as not useful

I'm guessing this is talking about body armor, not about boots of levitation? -Actual-nh (talk) 15:53, 27 May 2021 (UTC)

You might fireproof water walking boots if you didn't have levitation for the Plane of Fire. It isn't really useful otherwise, except maybe a cloak of protection. --Luxidream (talk) 04:49, 28 May 2021 (UTC)

Whoops, meant water walking boots. Thanks! -Actual-nh (talk) 14:45, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
