I need a potion of gain level to complete the quest that requires me to be xp level 14, since that's 40k xp and there is no way I'm grinding that.

I've tried polymorphing a bunch of potions, but no luck so far, and no more polymorph either. So at this point I guess I'm gonna keep going downward without completing the quest, even though I think I need to do it before I can finish the bottom levels. I did not expect a #Nethack run to start going so long that it gets dull... I have four amulets of reflection and two bags of holding, I am ready to move on now :p

the #nethack 5.0.0 is looking very sharp and responsive

the ui and menu interactions are better, first thing I noticed

game gives out tutorial snippets now too (it' easy now /j)

had to compile it from source since this version is not in the Arch official repo yet
