I was very upset about George Bluth's situation, so rather than face what appeared to be inevitable death, I left the game and played a MiGl for a relatively easy 15-runer. I thought coming off a victory would make George's death more bearable. So, I came back to George today, made a move away from ...

Quite an easy build. There are so many MiGl, MiFi posts that I realize another one might not be helpful. However, I just want to recommend going bows with Portal Projectile for extended. There's nothing like being able to smite target blessed arrows into mummies and Pan lords from behind TSO summons...

I was really excited about this TeAE. I found an early potion of experience. Casting lightning bolt and poisonous cloud pre-Lair. I have both ball lighting and OoD down to 4% failure but don't have the levels to learn them yet. And then I bump into this door mimic. I was instantly constricted. I stu...

You could see Gropt, Haowk, Lopybaly, Mouty, Proh, Stapo, Stuo, Threir... Several pan levels in this zig, and finally one that was too much for summon dragon.

My MuSus always die to lazyness, i just cannot have fun AND the needed number of summons around me at all times :( Yeah, it really is quite a tedious build. In the extended game I was doing a lot of careful exploring with frequent recalling. It's an easy way to win, but it is also an easy way to ge...

Just a few comments. 1. This char was XL 25 because rN+ was scarce. I've been told several times that rN is not very important, and now I know that is true. Having rN+ was plenty to kill shadow dragons, although I killed several without any rN. I eventually got rN++ which trivialized shadow dragons....

The silence in the prison will wear off. I don't believe it comes from spectres. It won't, and you believe wrong. Sorry for the misinformation! I had this vault about two months ago. All of a sudden silence was gone and I was getting summon spammed. I must have killed the spectre(s) without ever se...

The silence in the prison will wear off. I don't believe it comes from spectres. There are liches and other summoners in there, so be careful.

It was distortion. Short sword or dagger I believe.

This is a game of many firsts for me. First monk to get off the ground, first troll to get off the ground, first Nemelexite to get off the ground, and first melee character in Snake Pit since constriction. I don't have a clue how to play Nemelex, but she seemed like a fun choice. I have sacrificed t...

It is finished. This was my first 15 rune game and first victory in trunk (second overall). I love this build. I used an artefact spear with electric brand in the early game, and I got very lucky with javelins of returning on D:1 or D:2. They were huge through the Lair. Despite the fact that I encha...

Got the runes from slime, abyss, gloorx vloq, and mnoleg. The named pan lords were easy once I summoned two angels and hasted them and myself. I am worried about lom lobon and cerebov though. Cerebov because he is cerebov. Lom because I don't have a good source of rElec. Insulation is becoming casta...

It turns out that this combination is fantastic. With okawaru's armor and weapon gifts and five or six acquirements burned on armor, this character is shaping up nicely. Lair, Orc, Dungeon, Vaults, Elf, Swamp, and Shoals are all clear. I saved Crypt in case I decided to do post endgame stuff. I have...

I got a Stealth++ helmet that I will switch to. The leather armor is rPois, MR, SInv, and Stlth++, but it is also Damage -2. I have SInv and rPois rings, but no real MR (Kirke turned me into a pig on Orc 4). As soon as I get enough gold I am going to get randart +3 fire dragon armour {+blink MR Acc ...

I am trying out my first EV, light armor melee character. I don't really know what I am doing, but on my third or fourth attempt I found some javelins of returning on D:1. They helped me get going (and are now mulched, despite me burning 3 scrolls of enchant weapon on them). Swamp was no problem wit...

Got a cool Snake 5 vault with tons of lava. Very suited for EE because it was impossible for nagas to get away from walls around the lava (but salamanders required iron shot in melee range). Elf... was... a... joke. Corridors reduce the greater elves to butterfly-level danger. I was worried about ma...

This character is moving along nicely. I got the simulacrum ending to swamp, which was a complete joke with LRD, a wand of fire, and iron shot. I didn't really even need the rC++ from a ring and leather armor. Three ice dragons back to back to back frightened me a bit, but one LRD and an iron shot e...

So, after getting my first win with MDFi^Trog a few days ago I decided to try a caster that would have more post endgame viability. After reading njvack's DDEE 15 rune YAVP ( https://crawl.develz.org/tavern/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=3292 ), I decided to try that build. However, I have no idea how to ...

Congrats!

Looks like okie pulled through with some good gifts.

After having crawl anxiety dreams for two nights I decided to try my hand at zot.When I first spotted the orb I had to save-quit and pace around for about 15 minutes. I was terrified because I had the heals slowly mutation and no means of hasting or blinking. Had a tele ring but did not use it. Enco...

I got over my fixation on rN and stopped training axes. I've been able to enchant the demon whip up a little more. I have plate mail of Pandemonium and a randart plate mail that gives me a bit of a damage bonus but a few less AC. I maxed out armor, shields, and fighting and decided to train dodging ...

Thanks for the advice. I started using the demon whip as recommended and have enchanted it up to a decent level. I cleared the first half of the Vaults and some of Crypt. I started elf, but after clearing down through Elf 3 I had actually lost quite a large amount of XP. So I left and finished off C...

I started this game yesterday exactly one month after my MiCK died in the Abyss with 4 runes (Xom's capriciousness, lol). I somewhat arbitrarily want to get my first win before the new year, and I somewhat arbitrarily would like to do it with the MDFi^Trog build. I found a great eveningstar artifact...

I thought I was doing fairly well. I had cleared the Vaults, found GDA and enchanted it up to +10, and started working my way down the dungeon. Xom, being Xom, Abyssed me for laughs. At first I thought this was going to turn out to be a good thing because I found several cure mutation potions and wa...

Hey, just wondering if this guy is still truckin along kickin butts and takin names? Haha. Yeah, he is. I have cleared Crypt and Elf. Vaults are next, but I have the armor fits poorly and covers ground slowly mutations. Is it reasonable to just run around cleared dungeon levels hoping Xom will take...

Thanks for the advice Serne. I stuck with Xom and have gotten pretty lucky. I cleared down to D19 or so and then got started on Vaults. I killed an orc knight on V4 and picked up his runed broad axe, which just happened to be distortion brand. I got abyssed and thought that would surely be the end. ...

I have never ascended, but I have come what seems like agonizingly close with MDFi worshiping Trog (died with three runes on Zot 5, died with three runes on d24 [orange crystal statue plus deep water=drowned dwarf]). For an amusing, low-anxiety game I sometimes play MiCK. After a combination of good...
