Hi I'm quite an experimented player (26 wins with 23 different species, 10 with 15 runes), but I need advice to try different things 1) I always play shields, but this time I wanted to try a two-handed weapon, so I went for Executioner axe. It's fun, but is it viable for 15 runes run? And for Ziggur...

Code:: +4 cloak of the Imp {+Inv rF+ Regen+} ring "Ysem" {MR+ AC+5 Dex+2}

Add to this the Dragon king armour, Maxwell thermal engine and a +8 great shield of protection with a +6 amulet of reflection, and the game gets much easier

Hi I've been playing Stone Soup since 2010 and I've just got the best weapon ever: +9 Quick blade {chaos, Str+6, Dex+2, Sinv} A Spriggan chaos knight received it from Xom just before switching to Gozag. I killed almost every enemy by stabbing them after making them confused or asleep, before they ev...

Hi Here's a new specie idea: Cigotuvi has been collecting flesh and DNA from all the cadavers of the heroes who tried to get the Orb. Using the corpse of all the different species, he created an ultimate creature which benefits of all the features of these species: the Chimera Here's some of the fea...

Hi

I think it's a shame that dancing weapons are turned into gold when worshipping gozag

That's all I had to say

Bye

Hi. Just wanted to show off with my list of species won, and maybe ask for advice for the others, I'm quite stuck now... I'd like to try a stealthy build but can't figure how to survive after lair Gargoyle (15runes) Deep Elf (15) Hill Orc (15) Human (15) Centaur (15) Vine Stalker (15) Formicid Mummy...

Hey I usually raise spellcasting to limit spellhunger (but for felid it's useless) and to have more MP. I love to have lots of MP. I didn't think about RMsl ans DMsl, they are very powerful? anyway: I'm very proud to have been so far with a felid, and juggernauts are so strong! (72 damages!) Dungeon...

Hi I've never been so far with a felid! But I die often... I'm in Depth, is it worth trying to learn firestorm and necromutation? Which third rune do you advise me?

First 15 runes with a spellcaster! I really didn't think I could do it! But how comes that with 27 spellcasting, 27 conjuration and 27 Eath magic, the spellepower of Iron Shot and LCS isn't maxed?

Hey

I'd like the game to stop when my necromutation is almost over

I saw on the wiki a line to add to the init file

I tried to do it, I had to run notepad ad an administrator to save it, but it doesn't work

How to do it, where is the init file to modify?

Hi For the first time I will try extended with a caster I cast firestorm and iron shot or lcs. I'm training necromutation, but I don't really know how it can help. I gave Tomba try but have to few strengh... Any advice about which branches to do and how to manage my skills? Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup ...

I HATE these games when there is no rMut at all.

Damn, it's ruining my game

Edit: I drank a potion of mutation because I was desperate (being teleported in Elf:3 Vault is kind of scary).

I had
You use your magical essence to improve wands
You feel stable

Teleportitis is gone! Yeeha!

Hi I'm playing a DEFE. After a trip to abyss, I was malmutate. I had two RED mutations ans some Purple mutations: You take long time to read scrolls You are sometimes teleported next to foes Some temporary mutation Another temporary mutation A third temporary mutation I drank a potion of cure mutati...

I Had the stat shuffling, which put point in Int, even if I didn't know any spell

I quit Jiyva fr Oka (the wrath was easy, as I could'nt malmute). But when entering the Spider Nest, the stair was totally encircled with eight various spiders which confused, poisoned and killed me in a few turns

I love vinestalker, merfolk, Deep Elves

I hate ogres,

Hi I'm trying a ghoul, and started as a Monk I waited for Jyiva altar, to try it as I thought it's good for Monks. But I didn't know that as a Ghoul I could'nt get the mutations, and jellys are eating everything, it's a catastrophy. I get the slimy rune but I think I will quickly switch to Oka or so...

Ok thanks.

I raise Spellcasting to lower Spell hunger and spam blade hands as much as I want. It's not a good idea?

Hi. I just tried Merfolk transmuter. It's kind of fun, but can you please give me advice abour what armour to wear, fighting strategies and endgame strategy?

I wield-IDed a distortion dagger gifted by Trog... SI I'm playing with it now, it's quite powerful but not very funny... Thanks for the Crossbow advice but I prefer to stick with melee. I'm starting the branches, and maybe later I wield quit ShortBlades to LongBlades if you think it's a good choice ...

Hey!

I'm entering Orcs with a stealthy KoBe.

I'm using a chaos dagger, which is fun, and just found a distortion dagger.

Which one is better?

Distortion is less fun but it seems that all the effects are positive.

At some point with a MiFi you have lots of XP to spend, so maybe for a 3-runes you should stay with a regular shield with a good ego (protection is my favourite) but if you go extended, big shield is affordable and necessary

Now with some background comes the questions: Do MiFi have viability late game? Hell yeah, you can even go for extended easily Is okawaru the right choice? Yep, best way to get good equipement. After that he is boring but you can't leave him at least after clearin V:5, because his wrath is extremely...

I almost won a Spriggan assassin yesterday, it's aesome @Mainiac_Joe: I played Halfling once, sling is awesome but becomes a bit weak when entering Depth. What to do then? @ turukano: the mummy was melee. I understand DD is the top, I won it in three tries! (for the other species: hundreds and hundr...

Hi, I'm trying to finish the game with all the species. Here are the one I did already: Gargoyle (15) Hill Orc (15) Deep Elf High Elf Demigod Demonspawn Formicid Minotaur (15) Merfolk (15) Deep Dwarf Mummy Centaur (15) Vinestalker (15) Naga (15) And the others, most of which I don't know how to play...

Use the evening star, a CPA, a big shield, and go Makhleb

I must correct what I said

I just fell into a hole which put me right in the hall of blade. I teleported. In the hall of blades. I teleported again. In the hall of blade

I died

HoB is pretty fun, even if the weapons there are mostly useless (still a good place to find an exec axe)

Its difficulty depends on WHEN you go there. I do it after clearing Lair, Orcs, and Dungeon. The only threat are weapon of distortion

Does it work on OoF?

The exec axe I found was antimagic

I branded it when i decided not to do extended

Aniway it would'ny have been a big difference

Hey. In fact, DD is so op... Ascension on third try. THanks to an executioner axe (found in hall of blades) and a GDA (found in Bailey, with a CPA and a big shield of protection) I wonder if it is reliable in Extended Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup version 0.17.1 (tiles) character file. 1883057 Fili the A...

I tried and I agree that 2H is great!

Until Sonja abyssed me...

Hi I'm playing my first Deep Dwarf, and it's a Fighter of Makhleb. I often play melee, and when I do, I always use a shield, because I love it. But are'nt one-handed axes very bad? Also, should I rather use a light or heavy armour? THX Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup version 0.17.1 (tiles) character file. ...

What if amulet of resist mutation also have "Contam". It would limit swapping a lot!

Or maybe making it very unlikely to give "haste" on boots.

Like "chaos" brand which occur only 2% of the time

Hi Here a proposal for a new scroll (I don't know if it's the right place to talk about it) "Scroll of ego armour" It's a scroll of brand weapon for armour. To make your helmet a helmet of see invisible, your ring mail a ring mail of poison resistance, yout big shield, a big shield of prot...

If this can help. I start with oka, for amo. Switched to melee for extended; when I was protected enough Rely on Shields, as I do for all my characters. A +8 great shield with as much Shield skill as you want (I'm surprised I had only 19 for this character) And for armor, enchanted FDA (or whichever...

I'm going to switch for FDA and Eudemon blade...

Hi

What if one use a scroll of brand weapon on a blessed?

I hesitated to do so on a Eudemon blade, what would have happened?

I found a manual of Unarmed Combat and learned "Blade Hands"

Could it be a good alternative for late game?

Hi there! I'm playing a Halfling Hunter, and I'm punking everything to death quite easily. I am doing the Lair's branches right now. But I'm not sure this will be so easy when I reach Vaults and Depths... Any advice about it? I know no magic at all, should I? Is it worthy training Shields skill to s...

Perfect! Thanks

I paste my morgue files into the "morgue" folder in th egame directry, nothing happens

Hi
