Antisummoning: Temporarily dismiss target creature from your reality.
It might come back... wrong.

Troll Berserkers are harder to die with.
For a while.

As an aside: If you know cure poison, you should be allowed to eat poisonous chunks.

I want to play as a sloth.
I want to rip Mennas apart... slowly.

Apportation should affect monsters.

Noise: Everything in LOS starts to scream uncontrollably.

They could remove lots of stuff and I wouldn't complain about it.

Starting with all the monsters.

If navigating the labyrinth bores you, then you get bored very easily. It takes a few minutes, tops. I love labyrinths. And if you hate it that much, then just don't enter! I would object to making them regular floors, but as a portal vault they are fine. Significantly less annoying than ice caves o...

I would like it as an irresistible field of effect, like Silence. Stasis in a spell, essentially. But even as a single-target MR-checking hex, it would be great.

Uh, that's not even remotely true. Nemelex's powers use Evocations, while Kikubaaqudgha's use Necro. Trog, Xom, and Vehumet use no skills at all.

I don't know what I was thinking when I wrote that.

This could be cool. 1. God powers work with Invo. No exceptions! 2. I don't like the water aura; especially if it's a permanent effect. (You could have an aura that suppresses fire magic/extinguishes flames, though). An invocable ability to create water/deep water, maybe with a few friendly fish and...

Unless swapping for cons/clarity/rCorr/rMut, I go Gourmand. I have a hard time choosing between rings of sustenance and regeneration. This, whether I'm playing a MiFi or a OpWz. The reason is that the slow, progressive march of hunger is scarier to me than the relatively quick, unexpected death by c...

New monster: Beetling boar

I would say that as an OpWz, with no armor, traps is actually very important.
I don;t know whether that makes me object or not, though.

I pretty much imagine Okawaru and Trog as being always piss drunk, and Vehumet is definitely on cocaine, and chei is that teenage stoner who doesnt realize how useless he is, while sif muna is slowly sipping a fine wine and i'm drinking wine too and she's wearing that beautiful blue dress and i slo...

Code:: the +0 shield of Marbles {rElec rPois rC+ SInv}

It's okay, I guess. I'd rather have a ring of ice.

With +23 evasion from rings, I am invincible!
I am the dodgiest octopode ever!

Blinking should not place you in harmful fire/ice/poison/chaos/mut. clouds, if it's smart enough to not dumb you over deep water/lava.
I know the reason clouds are okay is because they're not instant death like lava, but it would be more consistent if dangerous clouds were excluded too.

I get one of the entry vaults full of moderately tough monsters behind a door (jackals, oozes, a jelly, etc). It's free XP, if I come back in a few levels. I'm pretty sure they're not supposed to be able to open the door, though. Because I stepped into view of the door (with translucent walls), a go...

The good news is that Vaults:5 shows off how hard it is at the stairs; it's meant to scare off players who aren't ready to handle it.
And in Crawl, the ability to figure out when you've moved out of your depth is the most important one.

I'm pretty sure that just corresponds to three people tongue-wrestling, though.
Maybe.

I frequently find artifact hammers, maces, and whips with good intrinsics... that I don't want to use because a dagger of speed is so much better at stabbing things.
I will usually make the switch for a nice long blade, though.

I found a bug: Venom Mages are completely helpless against everything.

So, I spotted this in a Saint's Row IV trailer.

Tell me your favorite challenge modes. Mine (not that I ever win with them) are: Rehab Mode: No potions, ever. Ghandi mode: No attacking unless it hits you first. Party Mode: Lead all Uniques into the Temple. Throw them a dance party when you get the Orb. (That excludes the Royal jelly and Roxanne. ...

Is there someone taking me serious? I, I know wearing a helmet with a robe looks some sort of stupid but is there realy someone who takes me serious? You have to be in the secret forum to get taken seriously. Prune equipment slot so you can only equip one prune at a time. The Glaive of Prune finall...

When I drop Mennas, Saint Roka, and Frederick all at once. If you have a Vaults level with nothing but green crystal walls, there's no reason not to spam LRD at metal-shattering power. It was kind of awkward between me and Mennas when Roka and Fred walked in, but a few controlled blinks had them all...

I also thought of making Zot:5 heavier instead of the orb run. Like giving the Orb Guardians powerfull smite, increasing the number of guardians, giving Tiamat a incredible powerfull weapon and some nasty Spells and placing her on the Orb, giving Orbs of Fire Firestorm :twisted: ,placing some Pan L...

Let me count the deaths: Nikola Azrael Aizul Urug Harold x2 Joseph Gastronok Pikel Ijyb ( ... with a wand of lightning) Blork the Orc (I am ashamed of this) So I apparently almost never die to the same unique twice. Cool. I actually really love Duvessa. Sometimes I like to trap her in the temple for...

Favorite Unique?
Nah, I never really liked either of them.

Thank you. Those were all useful suggestions.
I have added the 'force_more_message" line and I am trying to practice only pressing the 'o' key once. I also changed settings so that travel doesn't stop for normal gear, only artefacts and jewellery.

So I'm just exploring my merry way with a very promising OpWz, when suddenly: Deactivating autopickup; reactivate with Ctrl-A. It hits you. It hits you! It hits you. It hits you.

If you kill Sigmund, you get the Amulet of Yendor {Life Saving, rC+++}
rC means resist Centaur.
That's how we've all been surviving this long.

You call to action!
You hear a roar! x6
You hear buzzing! x21
You here a shout! x7
Grimm comes into view.

When my Centaur Fighter gets banished at XL 11... and escapes. And Erolcha is still there! Nothing is more satisfying than escaping the Abyss and immediately suckerpunching to death the sorry asshole that had just banished you. And the longer you were in the Abyss trying to escape, the better. Iron...

CHOKOS OF CHOK-- Oh, snap. Branded food! You eat the choko. It was a choko of choking! You die... The sultana explodes! Ouch! That really hurt! It was a banana of slipping. Sigmund cuts himself! It was a royal jelly of degeneration... Also Minotaurs should be berserked whenever they see a red ugly ...

A real mixed bag today: The excellent ring of Uzohinuni {rElec rC++ EV+3 Acc+4} along with the amulet of Crutt {+Rage Str+4 Int+4} Which were all excellent in carrying my MiFi of TSO to my first win. Yay! But then (on a DEWz) I find the cursed -5 cloak of Gamo {MR} Whoever this Gamo guy is, he's an ...

The bad thing is that would actually improve his flavour.

When my Centaur Fighter gets banished at XL 11... and escapes.
And Erolcha is still there!
So the second time around, I end up dying to a lemure (2 damage). By far the wimpiest death in my list.

Still waiting for the much-requested Surface branch.

New Unique: Karny the Killer Klown
He;s twice as chaotic as those other Klowns.

A nice triple set this time. j - the flail of Vyfuruj {crush, +Blink rC+ MR Dex+2 Int+2} (You found it on level 1 of the Spider Nest) q - the +4,+6 mace of Tudduim (weapon) {elec, +Inv rPois} (You found it on level 4 of the Orcish Mines) u - the +3,+5 mace of Quutylo {freeze, Str+3} (You found it on...

Umm, it's good, I guess? y - the cursed mace "Shrauthrole" (weapon) {distort, +Inv rF++ rN+ Str+1 Int+2} (You found it on level 4 of the Dungeon) It warps and distorts space around it. Unwielding it can cause banishment or high damage. It affects your strength (+1). It affects your intelli...
