Re: Show piety cost for invocations

Maybe have it differentiate between large and small piety costs? A general large - medium - small categorization should be enough of an indication.

EDIT: apparently it's already in the detailed description of god abilities. Maybe also show it in the 'a' screen?

Re: Personally, I found Hell to be very anticlimactic

Looking through the vaults for the hells, there seem to be very few vaults which include stairs. Since the stairs are probably the most important parts of the Hell:1-6 levels, could a number of vaults that include stairs be interesting? This also makes it more likely the player actually encounters a...

Re: Abyss and the gods

We could have the power and frequency of the 'god effects' scale with XL so it becomes a bit more interesting for strong characters.

Re: Translations

I'd like to help with the Dutch translation, and I've already sent a request to join the team. However, it seems Ziggy (the coordinator) hasn't been active for ~3 months. Could someone else put me in that team?

Re: Crawl Physics

Since this still takes at most 1 aut, the maximum height of the ceiling can be calculated as h = .5g(.5t)^2 = .5*.033*(.05)^2 = .00004125. Everything in Crawl would thus appear smooshed and pancake-like to us, although they are probably too used to it to notice, and don't think of "up" or...

Re: New God Idea: Balor, the Dreamer

We should probably just make the monsters scale with XL. They should be challenging, but rare, and not deadly challenging.

I like it! However, I think he actually has too much stuff going on now; the dream world is such a special and game-impacting ability, the stuff like silence and reality check might be a bit too much. I think we can definitely drop reality check, as it's really really freakin' hard to balance anyway...

Re: New God Idea: Balor, the Dreamer

The damage could just go away after a set number of turns Hm... I'm not sure how I feel about that. It would be useful, especially since it would be irresistible, but when the flayed damage is going away, it might feel like the monster just got regeneration when you thought it was almost dead.

It's also pretty darn difficult for anyone who is *not* a stabber to avoid making noise, both large melee weapons and high level spells are VERY noisy, so as-is this would be a god anyone other than a stabber would have a LOT of trouble gaining piety with.

Re: New God Idea: Balor, the Dreamer

Maybe we could make it only affect certain things, like movement or HP. That'd make it a lot more balanced, although I agree should be a lot higher. Maybe it could be a 'final ability', like TSO/Kiku/Lugonu? Have it heavily damage and/or disable you when you wake from the metadream? Have it drain yo...
