Just beat The Pit. reddit / bbs ---------------------------------------------------------------------- transizzle · 2022-05-13 17:17 Do others have any fondness for this game? I don't even know why I like it, but I go back to it every few years and grind my way through text based arena combat. There's not that much to it but I just have a weird soft spot for it. Here's a [screenshot](https://i.imgur.com/SON7mNj.png) of my late game equipment rollout. The end of this game is a huge grind, even moreso than the regular game, and my wrists are very happy that I'm done! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- nevarro · 2022-05-13 19:21 Well done! Love the game, but never beat it myself. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- resmungomandinga · 2022-05-13 23:16 Been a minute but this might motivate me to at least play it again. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- mranthr0pic · 2022-05-13 23:20 I remember it fondly. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- notp · 2022-05-14 00:37 I might have to get back into that game. I finished Land of Devastation. Then I tried breaking the game by acquiring so much money that my bank account goes into the negative. It took about 2 billion to get there.. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- transizzle · 2022-05-14 01:18 Hell yeah I love BBS doors for those kinds of things. Every year or so I jump back in for a few weeks. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- NeonSomething · 2022-05-14 01:30 I used to love The Pit! Best with a bunch of active players, but I've also had fun played through it solo on my own computer. Only thing I was never super fond of is, IIRC, your ranged weapon was a lot more critical than your melee weapon. Would've been cool if there was more balance to the two types aside from having to purchase ammo. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- transizzle · 2022-05-14 02:33 My biggest gripe is probably how arrows scale. By the time you fight Norse Gods, you need like 200 arrows to beat an enemy and you can only hold 999. You spend so much time going back and forth buying arrows! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Practical_Cartoonist · 2022-05-14 04:45 Level 498 Jesus Christ Congratulations! I'm envious. And 12 year-old me is *really* envious. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- transizzle · 2022-05-14 04:58 TIL that if you hit level 500 exactly, you get to fight two Norse Gods at once. it felt like the final boss. I beat one with like 50 HP left and got the winning screen. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Mminem2k · 2022-07-04 11:53 Love this game!! I forget, who do you get the Sword and Bow of the Ancients from? Is it a Hero or a Norse God that gives them? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- transizzle · 2022-07-04 13:31 Looks like they are in Random Encounters.
