Hey guys! I generally don't post a lot around here, but I'm really proud of this guy, my fourth win and my second 15 rune, first melee, though! Since it's holiday season and I'm lasy I'm gonna copy my post from another forum. Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup version 0.12-a0-1236-g9b240be (tiles) character f...

I feel kind of silly posting twice in a row in my own thread, but since noone else will : New version of Tome 4 : http://te4.org/blogs/darkgod/2012/02/news/tales-majeyal-beta38-aka-new-beginning Runs significantly faster, some classes were nerfed for no reason at all (Paradox mage T_T) others weren'...

Paradox Mage trip report : So much Crowd Control :shock: And it's a good thing I have it, too. Because I'm still not convinced by my build's way of dealing with single enemies, or any enemies at all, really. It's just that there has to be a more cost-efficient way of killing two skeletons than dropp...

More Tome 4 talk : I have finally ventured into the East and unlocked Doomed. As expected, I haven't the slightest idea how they're supposed to play and the one I made to quickly test the class (because I just spent 7 or more hours unlocking it and by god I will enjoy them) died an ignoble death to ...

It's ... weird. I've heard it described as "zelda-esque", and since I haven't played zelda I can't say for sure. It's made in flash, though, so it runs like balls on my laptop, not to mention the abortion/toiled humour grated on my nerves quite hard, so I stopped playing it after half an h...

I've done it too, in fact this time I died after I gibbed the boss without suffering any damage. This furthers the fact that some of the mechanics in certain zones are interesting yet not very good. Also has anyone played a Doomed before and are they really powerful, because I'll sort of feel really...

Well I haven't really played Dredmor, but from what I've seen it goes for the "haha so random monkey cheese" style of humour which I hate with a burning passion. If this is not so I apologise, but it seems this way from a brief glimpse. Kind of like Binding of Isaac's over-reliance on disg...

Thanks, but I think b37 has changed a lot of things, since I believe defence is compared to enemy accuracy to determine if you take any damage at all, saves let you shrug off status effects if... something? And armour decreases damage you take in some fashion. I base this on my Temporal Wardens who ...

Tbh the only isometric mode I've tried was HawkEye or whatever for Nethack? It was pretty bad :( Granted, it was my first ever roguelike and I had no idea what I was doing, but the thing kept obscuring items and enemies and generally getting in the way. I really love how Crawl's vision radius on til...

I like Tome 4 especially because of its cooldown-based combat - it lets me always have something fun to do while bashing heads :) Though there is resource management with all the classes, and there are like 7 or so different types of resource, not to mention you can get access to resources and skill...

Don't ask me, mate, that Berzerker I posted about above is my highest character yet. Though I can't help but feel this Temporal Warden is mental. I just killed the Minotaur without him ever hitting me. And I have so much mobility options, and I love that - I can blink myself, blink all surrounding e...

I've heard brief mentions of random Android roguelikes but by unanimous decision they're (or were? I'm a bit behind the times) all horrible. I don't know how helpful it is, but a brief googling lead me to this link : https://market.android.com/search?q=roguelike&so=1&c=apps which apparently ...

Those are some interesting links, Grimm, did you have to post them when I have so much to do :\ Also trawling through my roguelikes folder I found another game I really loved though I was never good at : Prospector . Wherein you are a prospector, in space. Explore planets, collect minerals and ores,...

I finally managed to get a Dwarf Cursed to level 16 in Tome 4, and since I've been playing for the awestriking period of two whole days, lost him to the Minotaur in the Maze. Sigh. I'll never get to the tier 3 dungeons :( I really like the Cursed from a lore perspective, too - you hate everything so...

No career IVAN players? What a shame :) That game's materials system is something else entirely. Really makes me wish it would be adopted by an actual game. If someone doesn't know what I'm talking about, it's a notoriously harsh roguelike which I think can not be won without cheating (at least some...

Hey guys :) I was curious, we're all Crawl players here, obviously, but there have to be other roguelikes we play, right? Well, this is a thread to discuss which roguelikes we enjoy, and most importantly - why we enjoy them. What mechanics, visuals or other thingies in those games make us go back to...

Haha, dude, I swear there has to be an epidemic of that, because I just read about another such death in an unrelated forum. But then again, I've gotten myself down to 1 or 2 health several times with a merfolk using an electrocution weapon so I probably should remain silent.

I'm gonna be a moron and beg for help in this thread :) I did start a good few DrTm, they're great fun but I keep running into a problem - which skills do I keep, and which do I turn off. For example - do I keep both fighting and unarmed, transmutations and spellcasting, do I keep dodge on... I inev...

Yeah, the teleport trap one sucks mightily and irrevocably. There's no arguing there :) I did run into a somewhat mind-boggling variant yesterday - a translucent (or transparent, whatever) rock and stone one. To make up for, you know, being able to see everything it was far more twisted and distorte...

Well, I'm not really sure distortion is good for a melee character in Zot. I mean, I'm pretty certain the last thing I want in the world is to blink an ancient lich, or an orb of fire away from me :) But yeah, what you said does make sense and I might consider it for use then. Fake edit : oh damn, I...

So I'm in an... interesting situation. Good old Troggie just gifted me a +0,+7 Executor's Axe of Distortion. Thankfully I ID'd it with a scroll, but I'm currently wielding a +2, +5 Vampiric War Axe with a tick of cold resistance. I am using a shield, but the thing is, I'm really, really uncertain of...

Hey, tcjsavannah, congratulations on your win! That's pretty impressive - going for a second win with an Ogre, I'm quite certain I'd never be able to pull it off, so you have something to be proud of :P As for your next character, if you want the easy way out you can always try a Merfolk Crusader if...

My first win was a MDBe - awesome creatures, those mountain dwarf berserkers, in fact, I'm playing one (my first ever since 0.5.2) to check out the armour buffs! Funnily enough it was not one of the four times I found a crystal plate or gold dragon armour on the first seven floors. I guess those inf...

There was a bug which made all skill training very cheap if you started and then cancelled a reskill; it was fixed in this recent commit. Perhaps the XP boost doesn't even need to be completely removed and it was just that bug causing people to get absurd skill levels. Yeah, I noticed the bug too, ...

Ok I'm getting confused... is this the newer forum, because I saw some pretty recent posts in the other one :( I'll post my thread here, too, because I'm so god damned happy. Hey, I just got my second win ever! And my first ever caster win! ... and it's a 15-rune HeFe of Ashenzari which only came cl...
