Here is another question to bug us for the next time period!!
Q: How Rogue (5.2 or ?.?) assigns hit points as you go on
with the game? Sometimes I am 12 at level 1, and after
killing something i go to 13 at level 2, then 17 at level
3 etc. On other occasions I have gone to 22 from 12, and
then 31, etc. How the increment according to level is
made ?? I have been at level 5 with 27 points and it is
obvious that at the 8th or 9th game level down the maze
it does not help much..
I suspect that there is some fixed increment that is added to the
existing points when you get the increment, i.e. level 1 = 12 +
(say) 10 = 20 at level 2, but if i am not in a good shape, say
3 at level 1 + 10 (same increment) = 13....qed.
Any Answers???????????

A: For every level you get an additional 1-8 (maybe 12) hp.

on 5.3 it is 1-10 per experience level. Herb Chong... I'm user-friendly -- I don't byte, I nybble....

Here is a table of the required values (from E_levels -- I used adb to get these) Level Experience Level Experience Level Experience ----- ---------- ----- ---------- ----- ---------- 1 0 8 640 15 100000 2 10 9 1300 16 200000 3 20 10 2600 17 400000 4 40 11 5200 18 800000 5 80 12 13000 19 2000000 6 160 13 26000 20 4000000 7 320 14 50000 21 8000000 If you go over level 20, however, weird things can happen. Probably has something to do with the fact that the next entry in E_levels (corresponding to level 22) is zero. Hit points are generated by random number generation between 1-12 points. These scores are completely independent from 1 level to the next. -- ihnp4 \ akgva \ decva > sdcsvax!sdcc3!guy dcdwest / ucbvax / All good things must come to an en....

When you go up a level, you get 1d10 additional hit points. ("1d10" means you get the sum of rolling 1 10-sided die. This is standard Dungeons & Dragons notation, on which Rogue is heavily dependent. A good guess for many questions can be obtained by referring to the Advanced D&D Manuals.) Paul Hightower University of Kentucky
