Well not "one" zoo - more like 3 on the same floor. Kinda sucks that you only get 1 reward for killing 3 zoos but oh well. Such is life in the Dungeon. Any other horror zoo stories?
Oh and the worst part is that I just beat the zoo after spending a ton of time juking with doors, magic walls and emptying my entire stash of booze and arrows (except for 3 or so) and the reward was a plastic ring with +1 hyperborean resistance
Every Zoo I clear as Dual-Wield Melee Dude nets me a Shield. Every Zoo I clear as a Glass Cannon Mage-y Type nets me some heavy armor loaded with negative and . Krong is not the only one who is fickle.
I had a 400 monster double-double zoo yesterday on DL2. Yes, you read that right. 400. Two separate double-zoos. It was a modded game, obviously. And I fireballed them to death with time and doors for help. The reward was worthless, like they usually are. I left it in the zoo.
I once got a Knight's Helm on the DL2 Zoo that I kept the whole game. But often, Zoo rewards are crap, yes. ;_;
I've had a 200+ monster double zoo on floor 2, and I don't believe in closing doors. How do you even do that anyway? Whenever I open a zoo door monsters immediately block said door. My zoo rewards are hit and miss. My most memorable zoo rewards so far were a pair of pyromancer's gloves AFTER killing the last 25 octos in the zoo with baseballs and a scarf of the timelord (10 ) AFTER clearing the zoo on the 7th floor.
You can only close doors by clicking the tiles of the sides of the door. If you have your mouse over the right spot, it will say "Close Door". The doors are three tiles wide, but you cannot close it from the middle tile. You have to be physically standing on one side or the other. And nothing can be blocking the door. Items do not block doors, but any monster that steps in will until they move or die.
Yeah, I have a bad habit of opening doors from the middle. So that explains why I can never close them when it's important.
Whenever I open a door, I use Ninja Vanish. That way, even if there are the four horsemen of the apocalypse behind the door I can just run like heck
Okay now I feel a tad more unlucky .. Just found a dungeon with 415-ish monsters. This screen was taken after I killed a few of them and moved to a more secure area. Dammit. Will post reward afterwards if (when!!!!) I survive Edit: Did I mention this was a no-magic-no-crafting-skills-build? So no dungeon clearing spells for me and no gas grenades either. The closest thing I have to AOE is the 2 cuncussion grenades I picked up and the Staff Ki Cascade Strike which is 2×6 area with 14 cooldown and apparantly only minor damage to anyone but the main target. Dammit.
Nope, just faxpax, Interior Dredmorating and Rougish Inovation Heh i only seem to get them when I am not packing heavy AOE Yep. Using faxpax and got the diggle god of booze
ah hehe. nevermind then Also, for some reason the last monster never spawned or it spawned inside a wall or something - I never got the price, after beating over 400 monsters with a stick And on top of that, after beating the dungeon level I found an uberchest with an insane ring inside with goodies like +2 hp and mana regen, +15hp, +6 damage of varying kinds and a few other things I think - and just as I picked it up, the game crashed. At least I have my lirpa, godjevins light staff (sp?), boiler plate and matching helmet so its going decently over all
