This was a long overdue breakthrough for me. In 9 years of playing crawl, my best win was 6 runes, and I only ever managed to retrieved one Hell rune once - and that was after a lucky teleport dropped me next to it. The Hells just seemed impossibly hard. The big insight for me was the (in hindsight,...

Hi

I created an account on CXC yesterday and I have already managed to lose the password. I did set a recovery email address, but I don't think I can request a password reset from the UI. Can anyone help me?

Thanks

Rob

I picked Qaz just to see what would happen in V5

... boom. Warden bbq.

4 runes. Think I'll drop in on Geryon next. Fingers crossed, internet.

Ah ok, thank you. I see it. For anyone else who has this problem in future, here's what I did to merge the two scores files. Edit saves/scores and paste in the 100 lines from my old scores file. This gives 200 lines but incorrectly sorted, and crawl will ignore the last 100. So we need to sort based...

Hi I'm a long time player of crawl, and I always play offline. Tiles, on a Mac. I was looking at my morgue files recently via the 'High Scores' button in the Tiles app. I realised I was missing a bunch of wins from back in the day, so I dug out an old hard drive backup of my last laptop, located the...

Crawl made me laugh today. :lol:

Edit: and another one :lol:

This is probably not very helpful for the current character, but you really should've put points in Dex, not Str. You also should've had more UC and Fighting and less of everything else that is not Dodging. Is that robe really your best option? Appreciate the advice - why dex? For more evasion? I t...

I'm doing my damnedest to win with a Troll, and I've got 2 runes but now I'm stuck. - I've cleared the dungeon, depths, orc, lair, elf, spider, swamp, and V1-4. - I've been relying on Yred's minions to supplement Troll lack of armour issues, and that's worked well so far. - I think V5 is out of the ...

First win with a caster, and it's been a long time coming. It all went reasonably smoothly, and some decent HP + regen stuff helped with resilience. After 2 runes I had rCorr but no rMut, and no cure mutation potions either. I chickened out of Slime and went for V5 instead, figuring that invis + pha...

http://pastebin.com/bTiWavrs First win in a looong time, and it was a blast. The plan was to be 100% slinger so went with Trog for the ammo. An early randart sling was a lucky launchpad, and when I found a cloak of invis, I got busy with the stabbing. All was going well until I got slung into the A...

- Why do you have 14 levels of earth with leda's as your only spell? I started training earth when I found the staff. leda's was the lowest level earth spell I could find, and it was on 100% fail. I learned it just so I could switch on earth training (for the staff). You need at least one earth spel...

Hi I've got a GrGl going well with some decent AC and I'm wondering what weapon to use. My main up until now has been a +6+6 lajatang of pain, but I was hoping for a staff of earth - which I've now got. I've trained nothing but Earth magic for a while, and it's now up to 14. I'm not planning on cast...

Second win, woot. Although I have to say that in trunk at least this dude was completely imba - I don't know if it was the amulet, but Yred gifted me perma-allies much quicker than I could kill them off. I could have wandered through the dungeon in my underpants holding an orcish club without a care...

Thanks. For a laugh I thought I'd celebrate my victory by rolling an OpGl. Met a kobold with a whip of distortion on D:2, got cast into the Abyss. Arrived next to an altar of Lugonu, joined up quick, and departed. Arrived back on D:2 where the Kobold one-shotted me with the same whip. I love Crawl :)

Well I've finally done it, after four years of playing. I've killed plenty of XL27 characters in my time, even once while ascending (duh) - I think part of me gets reckless coz I don't want to finish the game. Anyway, MiBe with only a few minor scares along the way. Decent weapon, but crappy heavy a...

Dear Tavern I've been playing Crawl for a while now, and my current CIP is a SpEn 22. I've never got this far before so all is new, and I'm not sure where to go next. Slinky.txt Current dump attached. I've cleared Lair, Orc, Hive, Swamp, Snake 1-4, Elven Halls 1-4, Vault 1-6. I have cleared most of ...
