TBH I've been pretty busy with work, I think I'll sit this one out since I probably won't have much time to play & am out of practice. Best of luck to the rest of you, I might join up next time around.

A surrealist image of a chainsaw, perhaps?
Ceci n'est pas une tronçonneuse!

I've had a KoIn going for a bit on the US webtiles server that runs trunk. Just yesterday when I went to start playing him again, the entire floor of the level he was on loads as black space. The minimap still shows things properly, and I can see items/walls/monsters, theres just no tile for the flo...

OgHu was my ogre win as well, it's just a matter of using your starting large rocks carefully & finding a good mace/club early. I chose to go with Okawaru, and ended up changing to TSO in the endgame. Once you get your fighting skills up it's not too hard to pick up some good buff spells, even i...

I used to play a ton of KoL, but it got to the point where I was just starting it up to burn my turns for the day via Greasemonkey. That and the fact that I cant resist buying the Item of the Month each month. Almost tempted to see how much meat (yes, the currency in-game is meat) I could get for al...

Orshelack = Slack Hero

I'd probably go translocations & charms, and learn swiftness & regen at the least. The OgHu I won wasn't casting until very late in the game, but he was in GDA for most of the time, so it took a good while longer to get casting viable. I maxed Spellcasting before doing much with the other ca...

I'll join if you want, been playing since 0.6 and have a couple wins. I play on Webtiles for the most part, same name as here.

The DDNe guide on the wiki happens to be slightly less terrible than the other guides because the first bit was written by casmith789, a genuinely competent player, but it doesn't take long to degenerate into utter nonsense that happens to be outdated nonsense as well. If you do read it you should ...

I had a recent win with OgHu, started with Okawaru when I found temple, then switched to TSO later to try for more runes. The trick to Okawaru is to not take your throwing skill over 8, so he focuses on armour & weapon gifts instead of the dart flood he enjoys oh so much.

Is it theoretically possible to get ALL resists at the same time? I think that it's impossible to do so unless there was a race that could wear more than one amulet. rMut and rCorr take up the same spot. I think it would be pretty easy to fill all the elemental resistances, though, if you Necromuta...

Not sure I'll get demonic guardian, but I'll give it a try while I wait for webtiles to come back up.

What should I train after armour? The consensus seems to be go 2h, so shields won't be needed. Should I go for spellcasting or some dodging for more def? What are my chances of casting something decent with my int in GDA? Evocations is also an option, so I can use TSO's powers better.

If you go Nemelex could you wall off the orb with tomb cards?

Looking for some advice on my current run, basically as topic states I'm wondering if I should just go for the orb, or if I should try a 15 rune run with this character. I've only won once before, but this guy seems like he could do well, especially after switching to TSO, which I would do in a 15 r...

Actually, both Holy Word and Fear scrolls will ID against an undead, Fear just won't have an effect. I try to read-ID my scrolls while there's a weak skeleton/zombie nearby, since they tend to show up fairly early & are less of a threat than the monster themselves. I do agree it is annoying when...

It did that to me once too, and I couldn't figure out how to fix it short of a reinstall, so you may want to try that if you aren't in the middle of a game or attached to your ghosts.

From my current game, a very nice gift from Oka:

the +8 gold dragon armour "Etergh" {god gift, +Lev rPois rF+ rC+ MR SInv}

Not sure if I should go finish the game or hunt for gear & level skills more, maybe wait for ice storm before going to the orb. With turn undead I was thinking of raiding crypt, not sure if I'd go further for another rune. Any advice is welcome. Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup version 0.8.0-a0-4388-g31...

I believe it takes 6 spellcasting & 10 conjurations to read that book. The fastest way to get that would be to just turn off all your other skills & keep casting spells while you have exp in your pool to level your spellcasting. If you happen to worship Vehumet you can read it without the sk...

The spells can be recast to be extended, the only real risk would be miscasting long enough for it to wear off. Levitate evoked from items is permanent until turned off iirc.

Assuming the entry on the knowledge bot is correct: # The base chance of breakage is 1/X. X is: 1 for flame or frost brands. 3 for curare, darts. 4 for stones, arrows, bolts. 6 for non-curare needles. 10 for javelins. 25 for large rocks. Throwing nets only take damage when struggled against and are ...
