Line 46:
** Emperor liches cast various nasty spells, including [[Death Ray]] and confusion, summon loads of monsters as meat shields, are immune to most mindcraft powers due to being undead, see invisible and have a paralyzing touch.
** Great Wyrms are ancient really powerful dragons. They can cast spells unlike lesser dragons, and are immune to their respective element (ice, acid, lighting or cold). Special mention goes to Great Karmic Wyrms, which are immune to ''all four'' elements, making most magic useless against them. Plus, they are karmic beings, meaning that hitting them in melee makes the player unluckier with each hit.
** [[Parodied]] in [https://web.archive.org/web/20130905221139/http://poro.tontut.fi/~adom/mkoddd/masterk.html this page], which describes a [[Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot]] monster with an [[Overly Long Name]] and all of the [[That One Attack|most notorious abilities]] of various monsters.
** Doppleganger kings have identical speed and defense power to your character, making them hard to hit and run away from, and do about ten times as much damage as you.
* [[Breakable Weapons]]: One reason artifacts are so useful is their [[Unbreakable Weapons|immunity to damage]].
Line 127:
*** Still not enough? One of the [[Cursed with Awesome|corruptions]] grants another layer of [[Healing Factor]]. Don't forget to actually kill your enemies though.
* [[Heavily Armored Mook]]: Some of the monsters have so high armor that they can be barely scratched with normal attacks.
* [[Hobbits]]: The Hurthlings
* [[Hoist by His Own Petard]]: Shooting a [[Magic Missile]] in a narrow corridor? [[Too Dumb to Live|Bad idea]]. Chances are, a typo makes you cast it straight at the wall, so it constantly rebounds at you and hits you again and again and again until you're dead.
** There is a spell called Death Ray. [[Captain Obvious|It also bounces off walls]].
Line 177 ⟶ 178:
* [[The Minion Master]]: This is the [[Planet of Hats|hat]] of necromancers; bards can be played like this too, although having too many followers at once may result in them jealously attacking one another.
* [[Monster Compendium]]: And with colorful descriptions to boot. Just hit &.
** [https://web.archive.org/web/20140206000117/http://l.j-factor.com/misc/adom.html Here] is a list of all monster descriptions in the game.
* [[Multiple Endings]]: There are many ways to win: some have a better outcome than others.
** Even the regular ending has quite a few variations depending on your alignment and amount of corruptions.
