[QUOTE="Neo, post: 1881855, member: 4139"] Yup Crom is my main character on CHAINMAIL.. gone from 2nd to 17th with him..though I was about 15th when I passed you on the first level of the Underpass Caverns. Troubling thing with CHAINMAIL is you tend to spawn things sooner or later regardless... stand near a door and level transition point and inevitably things start appearing.. stand still too long and things start appearing, even standing outside in town and inevitably things start appearing... this sadly means the higher level a character gets the less safe he is to be ANYWHERE near for lower levels. This said however even low levels can get high levels spawns... I saw a second Adamantine Golem the other day spawn on a bunch of level 4-6.. not sure they saw it but I quickly sent it off to limbo as it would have massacred them horribly. The only safety there is in CHAINMAIL really is in a group of similarly levelled people.. solo'ing unless your higher level is about as plausible as eating a landmine with a side order of fries.. and even for higher levels you can still die easily and regularly and frequently do. Lack of even +1 weapons being available starts to hurt real quick as you tend to spawn monsters you cant hurt long before you ever start spawning magic items in loot (first itme i found was around 8th..with nothing but gems, potions and mundane gear until that point).
