... That's racist !

I also think that the drop rates are too high. More specifically, I think we could devide the drop rates by 5 by double the frequency of ammos stacks. Right now, you can be lucky and find a 200 stack of javelins in D3 (like I did), and you're golden until lair (obviously, it's random, but it happens...

Healing from kills is a great mechanic, I wonder if slow regeneration could be replace by no regeneration instead, as you provide separate healing through lignification. I'm afraid this would lead to some grinding by going back to earlier levels while the OOD timr is not out to kill some low level ...

There is a "crawl nostalgia" somewhere : a version based on 0.15 or 0.14 but including the removed races/classes, and some of the mechanics.
I think it was playable on webtiles somewhere, but can't find it anymore :/

One use of a lamp of fire with ~15 evo means you get 3-5 elementals, and a quarter of your screen get filled with clouds of flame, which stay here for a while. It's really efficient when there are multiple enemies, as they will get clouded and damaged while you take care of the others. It's easy to ...

Little thing I saw on my local version :
When you redirect an enemy's attack, you can see its name, even if he is invisible. I had "you redirect the unseen horror's attack", without seeing invisible

Except if there is any stunner (that's why I wrote about Rupert up here) or confuser, or sleeper, you can get killed in a single unlucky streak.

Then it would mean a "caster" attacking in melee a monster would not get the warning and die because he double-tapped the monster's direction.

Rupert comes into view. Quit ? (y/y)

... that was part of the joke ...

"cast shatter, it wont shout" ... understand ?

proposal : rename Cestus => "Spiked Gloves".

Hirsch I wrote:every single person that commented on my games was helpful and funny and nice.

Same here (love you, ted).

I've also seen guest spectators coming in, not saying anything, and leaving after 2-3 minutes, not responding when I say "hello" :/

Except it would only need 1.5 new letters, and I think we have a problem with the half letter.

Scroll of noise ?
Loud spells/wands (lightning and fireball are some of the loudest and could also be useful if you attract soem monsters first) ?

TRoglodyte => staff acquirement => 100% chance get rod => train evoc => win ?

The new "eye" splashscreen is creepy as hell. I love it. Thanks to the one who made it !

Same here :
Bought Magicite only to find out that it was a spelunky with a terraria-generated content, without any environment interaction (no bomb/rope a la spelunky, no digging a la terraria,...).

Nope.
but you are more likely to get something you didn't have/see before.
so if Trog/Oka gifts a morningstar at first, he is more likely to give a Great mace afterwards.

As I can't try it right now : How does it affect anti-training ?

From what I understand, right now, you roll your accuracy, and if you "hit", the enemy rolls its EV to make you miss anyway. What if a high enough accuracy would put a malus (for this swing) to the enemy's EV ? It would make some of the EV based monsters less luck-based, and could even mak...

There is a nostalgia branch on CSZO.

Well, you could brand a demon trident to attack while behind your summons when you're not at full HP...

By the way, do octopode keep their rings in dragonform ?

Through my many attempts at forced Transmutation themed races, gods, mutations etc.

It feels like you're trying to make D&D.
There are : a werewolve race, a werewolve feat, a werewolve background, a werewolve theme.

Siegurt wrote:for example "(artifact|ego) && cloak" will find all artifact or ego cloaks.

You mean that artifacts are usually notfound by the "ego" search ?
Should we get a single term for both of them ?

Why is the dungeon layout a kirby ?

I tried the Nemelex sprint branch on CSZO, and got to the end of its Orc lane with no piety from Nemelex but got a deck of war from killing bears (so I don't think they dropped it). Is the piety multiplier missing ?

This thread lacks a "Good is not Nice" trope link ...

I generally always take every unexplored staircase down, every floor, every time. The benefits far outweigh the disadvantages in my opinion. Timed portals. I stopped checking downstairs after walking into vaults in the earliest levels (when a Dungeon floor cleared means a real increase in power), a...

I don't recall exactly when ... but I think it was because of the "how did you last die" thread on the Bay12 (Dwarf Fortress) forums.
DCSS was quite recurring there, and had some original deaths.

I think that the Hell one is really nice, as the creatures are easily uderstandable, we can see an effect on the player's weapon, as well as a special dungeon layout. It would be good to have in a gallery, showing there are multiple parts in the dungeon

And there is a special banner in the crawl tournament for this type of thing :

Lorekeeper III: Win without raising any skill to 13.

By the way, why a bat of Makh ? I mean, don't thay have the less HP of all forms ? Wouldn't a bat of Nemelex be as random/versatile in term of damage type, yet more able to stay above 10 HP ? Am I the only one who is baffled by this comment? I'm not, I understand his thought process but it just doe...

And bat's attacks not being short sword, they're worse at stabbing, too ?

IIRC, it still hurt the enemies that are attacked by your angels, incurring penance.

RE: Archmagi status (Which in my head is Xerath Mode) This feels like a "get out of jail free card" unless it has some form of exhaust like berserk does. Also, this becomes hilarious with Blink/Controlled Blink Well, you would still have a limited MP pool, and no moving except with blink ...

By the way, don't shafts always put you at the same place, provided they don't close ?

An Ogre- & Troll-only sling that throw large rocks <3

I am on the fence about Earth Shard, sure, that ability could be dropped, but I added it mainly to increase survivability early on for folks who worship this god. The fact that you need to be adjacent to at least one diggable wall to use it, and the fact it randomly destroys one adjacent wall upon ...

So I am the only one loving Raijus ?
They feel like pokemons, and not in a bad way !

Meh, it's not an orb of fire, it's an orb of zot. It casts Zot-trap effects on you. Enjoy ! <3

In reality, if temples did not exist in the first place, no one would care and maybe even enjoy finding altars even more. I like how you know things. I've played crawl for about 3 years, and had my first win less than a year ago (and first rune not more than a month before that). Temple always was ...

It was one of my more enjoyable Swamp: 5 experiences. That said, I'm not a fan of its convoked minions sticking around even after its death -- especially since they stay mighty. Is it possible to have the convoked monsters "snap back" to their original positions once you kill the druid, o...

Having Igni enhance fire-branded weapons the same way Beogh enhance orcish weapons doesn't seem a bad idea, by the way. The immolation-scroll ability seems to fit and would even be expected, but as said before, it being the "hyper power" of the god seems awkward. A comparison with Holy Wor...

Oh, by the way : your hooves 2 mutation negates 1 skill level of stealth :p

This is the experiment :

Skills:
- Level 2.6 Fighting
- Level 3.6 Dodging
+ Level 24.2 Stealth
- Level 3.2 Unarmed Combat

How far can stealth, improved by Dith, can bring you.
How "OP" can it be.
Could you get runes without training anything else ?

About the "problem" of "enemy comes into LoS and directly paralize", why not give (wand of) Paralize a range ?

Also, the higher MR means shorter paralize is a good Idea, I think, preventing the hardcap that may exist.

** : Perfection (active, cost: 1MP, noise, breath, instant): The follower shouts a short prayer to Goshiro, enpowering the next attack (with a weapon or a spell). This enpowered attack always hits the target (or all targets for example in the case of axes, lightning bolts etc.) You may want to twea...

So I guessed I was the only one who liked this Okawaru Vault ?
I mean, it made sense, and I found it funny when I met it the first time...
It was like Okawaru telling you "you need to train to becoem a hero".
