Maybe I'm crazy but the game refuses to stop informing me that im even the slightest bit hungry .... That and bright yellow/read capital letters against black are pretty darn noticeable. Maybe if you're color blind, I don't see how you could ever "accidentally" starve to death.

if the purpose of mut, degen, lig potions are for the idgame... can we not look at a bigger problem here. The idGame is not an idgame but really more of a delay to when you get your potions once you've played the game a few times and figure out what potions are there. would this be a better solution...

My only advice at this point is assume everything in Zot:5 is a cheating glitch and will kill you in one hit.... never ever charge into a fight there. The closest to a win I've came to in 3 years now, is opening the door to the Zot vault with a mifi of Oka. and then spending the rest of the turns ru...

I may be dumb and missing something here, But I always use the in game list of recognizable items to pick up or not to pick up with autopickup. It would be awesome if I could choose what arrows, bolts, evokables, javelins... etc get picked up. The option is already there for potions and wands and bo...

Orc mines was WAY TOO EASY, took a few steps into floor 4 and walked right into the entrance of the main vault, 2 Brothers (the blue trolls) and sat back to watch them tear apart what seemed like an endless stream of orcs.... and no Rosaka. I cant recall a single time I haven't seen Rosaka in the mi...

equipment has been rather scarce for me this game, or atleast useful equipment. Theres quite a few short bows lying around, only other crossbow is an arbalest. And a good 100- 150 arrows throughout the dungeon so far. mostly basic, though theres several stacks of frost arrows, ~40. The triple crossb...

Another pain staking attempt at what one year will be my first win ;) and like a rotten potato theres crap growing out of me everywhere. It's been a while since I've played a demonspawn that made it to lair and I don't remember this many mutations popping up. I've got one almost every level up. Not ...

can the god be called "Haxor - The Game Genie", like the god I used to slide into my SNES

type '&' then 'yes' and this god will be activated for you?

I've always thought the name was weird too... but game logic is game logic for a reason. Would it not be possible to add a few new whips to the game and seperate the weapons... Maces (flails are technically maces) and a Whips category. Whips inherently have fast attack and evoke ranged abilities. Ma...

OK, definitely put on the amulet of faith. Also the ring of protection from magic should be on, then you would probably be immune to hexes. Throwing is good and you should use it, but you want to pick up a lamp, fan, phial, sacks of spiders, phantom mirrors and boxes of beasts and train Evocations ...

OK portal was no where near what I thought it'd be, it was a breeze. Wucad Mu 's lab. With a manual to dodging... could be better. The only beneficial rings I've got (theres only about 10 all game, and maybe 4 amulets all game) ; ring of Protection from magic ring of poison ressit ring of +5 int rin...

Back to playing crawl, been a little bit, think last time I played was when the depths was first introduced in trunk... still not a fan ;) Playing a MiFi of Okawaru, its just what I'm used to and I like the abilities more than Trog's, and is the only build Ive ever seen the orb of zot with (not touc...

Oddly Elf:3 and Vault:5 were pretty much a breeze.... vault:5 seemed like something else had cleared it before I got there.... other than the welcoming committy there must have only been 20 or so more monsters in there and all mostly dragons that can't even touch me hahaha.... but then ofcourse ther...

Use those wands of draining on the boggarts, the bolts will shoot through the summons. think my evo is too low to make that awesome... but it worked a little :) made it easier then just stair dancing. I cleaered Depths 6, got 2 runes; snake and shoals but now I'm wondering were the hell to get the ...

How to deal with summoners and hellfire now.... Got my eveningstar back :) but would the lower min speed of the demon whip make it better if it were enchanted to +8 aswell? Really wish I could find some useful MR+ other than the robe. Is rPois getting useless at this point in the game? should I be u...

I would up your fighting skill before dodging. My minotaurs typically tank anything to the point high ev doesn't seem noticeable to me without reading every single line of output. either they miss or I take no damage. You can still get decent EV in a CPA, just got to get dodging up high. My general ...

I just got thrown into the abyss against my own will.... again. I've only once ever gotten out and that was cause the exit spawned before I aggroed anything. I usually just run hoping the exit will pop up... but I was thinking of standing my ground a bit to not get swarmed... but I only got one piec...

Edit. Either quaff the potion of beneficial mutation or drop it.

did even realise it was there, this has been my third one, got evolution.

Couple questions 1: Which Amulet You think I should use, I'm using warding because the way I understand it, its like extra ac against summoned creatures. at this point in the game that is the scariest thing for me. Being flooded by hundreds of little demons and ghosts and crap that lichs, bogarts an...

I know, I always neglect my wands way too much. Rarely ever do I find wands of haste/healing :( unless I get lucky to find scrolls of acquirement. I always figure the wands like disintegration/fireball/drain stay relatively useful through out the game? The other wands I always carry if I got space, ...

Derp, ofcourse I play with the Knowledge bot open, don't know why I didn't just search it. Thank you for clarifying what I expected. Probably just stash the brilliance pots then.

Been a few months since I've played, Still haven't got a win yet :(, but my last MiFi died a few tiles away from the orb of zot :) Haven't downloaded the latest build, fired up the last 0.13 trunk build and I had a lvl 14 MiFi that must've just beat lair and cleared down to D:12. Kinda went into him...

Fedha it is.... I'll have to read up on him first before I revive george

First time ever getting to Zot:5 let alone a rune ;) was a good game till I let game of thrones distract me and an ancient lich started summoning nasty all around me.... took out a good handfull of them before I was defeated. For my next MiFi whats a decent god other than Oka and Trog? I want to try...

That is a too-good-to-exist CPA you have there (because it's +16, I didn't even read what shiny stuff it has besides that) and you now have good rF and rC. Provided you're intending to do a 3-rune win, you shouldn't be facing the threat of persistent Int drain (i.e. meeting many neqoxecs and such)....

The best great mace I've come across so far is a +2/+0 great mace of draining, I've keep this dire flail cause is started as a +6/+4.... is the 5 points of base damage worth the switch. or carrying it around to enchant everytime I find more enchant scrolls? That isn't very good, no. The dire flail ...

There is no way that Mennas would kill this character if you use Heroism, Finesse and the potion of might. There isn't any real benefit to killing him though, so for the sake of saving the potion I'd just leave him alone anway. By the way, drop the enchant weapon scroll (it could get burned) and tr...

About to finish crypts and found this beautiful gem :D ring "Stuifeh" {rElec rPois rF++ rC+ MR} Mennas is on crypt floor 4... is there any chance of me beating him... I'm proud of myself for immediately reading a tele scroll when I saw him. unlike the last time he whooped my ass. I ditched...

This is usually were I get in the game and die... I'm not 100% sure where to go with my skills right now. My current plan is something like -get dodgeing to 20 - fighting to 20 - work on evocations or a secondary long range skill (bows/crossbows) - max maces/fighting/armour in that order but at same...

@freetheworld: if you starve as MiBe you probably play something wrong, probably you berserk too much against foes don't require it - or you train skill in wrong order, so you're are actually weaker than you should. I probably just way too used to Oka and spamming heroism whenever I feel like it ;)...

Were you trying to out run him? The potion of speed might have helped. I spotted him he cast confuse on me and I was left for dead after that. He just ran up to as I moved around like a retard un able to do anything but take a beating. E - 8 potions of curing That would have helped too. Well it wen...

Were you trying to out run him? The potion of speed might have helped. no for some reason I used my instincts and cast heroism at the first sign of threat, I knew from looking him up on the bots that I was whole heartedly going to avoid him...

I've id'd almost everything except a curse scroll, acquirement the raise one and torment.. but yeah I plan on just reading them and crossing my fingers.

Pretty sure I have ~1.1K gold at the moment. Should I try jewelry instead?

Finally got another decent start going, found an oka altar just checking one of the stairs on D:1. Yeah started my oka worship before even clearing D:1, then what do I find on D:9 but a my first amulet this game... a faith amulet with +4 strength boost aswell. So Oka has been gifting me like crazy a...

Do not ever underestimate slime creatures. I generally use more fragile characters than yours, but any time slime creatures start melding together just back up a floor and wait a while. If you let them get up to titanic size you're just asking to die. Yeah I got cocky didn't think he would be able ...

Titantic slimes seemed easy the first couple times I pounded them into the ground... go figure I started to get way too cocky and let one slap me hard without thinking Farthest I've been so far, I probably shouldve took a stab at vaults before continuing in D:20 I almost did... grrrrrrr! Dungeon Cra...

Centaurs are the bane of my existence in early levels for most characters. MiFi are not one of those characters. I deal with them all in the exact same way, drawing them around corners. I rarely take serious damage in doing so, and they like to stack up once you get the first one to come around the...

MR helps against most sources of banishment, nothing directly helps against distortion melee or miscast effects/zot traps. always thought 8.6 in traps would spot any trap in a square next to you... am I wrong on that info too?

NOOOOOOOOO!

then does warding? I feel I'm now on the way to a dumb death

Gotta stop making an ass of you and me

using stasis permanently is a very poor choice. Okawaru's Finesse is blocked by it, as are many escape options and Haste. generally speaking, it's safe to use unIDed rings but not amulets, as long as you have remove curse scrolls. the ice cave entrance will collapse if you leave. MR won't help vs i...

I entered the ice caves stupidly before looking it up... still not sure if it's time but I'm assuming the entrance will collapse if I leave it. If not I do have a ring of ice stashed a couple floors up... will the entrance collapse if I leave? Almost at the beginning of the caves I ran into an ice s...

Ok bad wording.... it's not always opening a door but just walking into and entrance to a room of them. My luck always puts me in a situation where I can't really duck behind a wall without just being in another open room. Go figure this guy died to a single centaur with distortion arrows :( no too ...

Ok this trend has been going far too long for me.... Do awesome... accidentally open the door to a room with 3-5+ centaurs and the red centaurs. Ofcourse centaurs cheat and always have awesome arrows or an awesome bow on them too. They then proceed to laugh manically while they tear me apart and no ...

No plate in orc.... trust me I would've worn it.... I know doesnt make any sense.

Took a short break and started back up with one of the newest trunk builds... Got the worst luck ever. I should've realized what weapon I was using.
