You should update this guide, since they added a couple classes in blessed edition.

Wow thanks a lot dude. :steamhappy: Excellent guide with some great info. I like to play the jester a lot but that was back when the minotaur couldn't walk over pits which I think he can now.
I'd use the ring of levitation and pelt him with rocks or spells while floating. The stone the jester carries that you mentioned (-20 wgt) I believe is a luckstone. In the earliest days of rogue gaming before they had graphics even! was the game nethack which started it all. In nethack at the lowest levels of the gnomish mines there were two stones you could find, a loadstone and a luckstone. The loadstone was cursed like everything else in that foul place! but the luckstone would give it's owner +2 luck and I believe might reduce their weight but not sure. Anyway thanks for the great guide. See you in the dungeon! :steamhappy:

Also, one more thing: The Joker's Flawless Rock has "-20" weight (whereas the rough rocks have positive 20 weight each). That's a useful rock! Effectively cancels the weight of the spellbook you're carrying at the start.
PrinceRenais 6 Nov, 2015 @ 4:13pm 
Oh; I just realized some of the stats mentioned below are affected by, for example, the Joker's Hat which gives +1 Charisma. That's of moderately important note.

I don't see Josh's guide anywhere, so I'm going through to make a list of the female stats. Hopefully it gets added; if not, then at least it's accesible. They're in order as per the game's norm: Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, Perception, and Charisma.

Barbarian: 1, 0, 1, -1, 0, 0
Warrior: 1, 2, -3, -1, -1, 1
Healer: -1, 0, 2, 1, 0, 0
Rogue: -1, 3, 0, -1, 2, -1
Wanderer: 0, 1, 1, -1, 0, -1
Cleric: 0, 0, 1, 0, 2, -1
Merchant: 0, 0, 0, -1, 2, 1
Wizard: 0, 0, 0, 2, 1, -1
Arcanist: -1, 1, 0, 1, -1, 1
Joker: -1, 1, -1, 1, 0, 2

hey bro, you missed something. Stats are different for females. go read my guide "what we all missed..."
Lady Petricour 12 Jul, 2015 @ 3:36pm 
Is it just me or should Arcanists NOT be labeled 'normal' difficulty. Like for reals, they start with some pretty terrible stats.
Darkerson 28 Jun, 2015 @ 6:52pm 
Very nice to have the info compiled in one place, thanks!
