It's extra. The minotaur and the loot are there.

he's probably thinking about miniskirts. must be at that age!

loving the past tense here.

Just add -ctele to pan lord floors It's starting to get silly though. Why have controlled blink if you have to add -ctele every time you want something to actually be a challenge for blinkers? Without cblink you can actually have blink scrolls be more than a mid game emergency button because you do...

does it come with a power drill?

i'd like to say that that's not "background music", but i'm not big on eno and i've never really bothered with airports. which i probably should. someday.
so i'll just say that this is coming from someone who finds "time machines" as meaningful as music gets.

it's been a while but i think i mostly took offense at the use of "consumer". are we talking about radio jingles or what? anyway, don't mind me. i think "background music" is a terrible concept and you should never aim for it. =( i've been meditating very hard on this matter and ...

I am a bit worried that good players like MarvinPA will go for a mutation free game anyway. The goal is not to make mutations the solution to everything but to have a wider range than "shun mutations at all costs; if you have sufficient !cMut, perhaps try !Mut before the Zot battle". A po...

because the drawbacks may outweigh the benefits. are we seriously arguing about this?
as i see it it's mostly an interface issue (what happens if you want to quaff one and you forget the amulet's on).

that's why i do

i picture mikee as a 'nam vet.

It doesn't resist gain stat potions, though. the halfling intrinsic does, though, for whatever reason. i guess gain foo bypasses the amulet because it can just be unequipped, and is spoilery the same way you'd read-id scrolls one at a time with the rest some squares away in case you drew immolation...

unlike weapon speed, and other things ( like shields , which are closer to what we're talking about), there's no clear cut-off point for armour. check the bots rather than the wiki for this stuff: https://crawl.develz.org/info/index.php?q=aevp for mottled the penalty is almost irrelevant. i train it...

guys, it's fine as is, and unique, it just does a lot of damage.

channel then.
hyperbolic's ddpr zot strategy was summoning like 40 earth elementals, buff up, teleport, recall.
at a cost of 4 mp it would even work with pots of magic or ambrosia.

ninja'd.

but my question was more along the lines of whether this could work as a dense, hard, single level instead of a branch, a la elf:5 smack in the middle of the dungeon. (i believe so.)

quick remark! there are already many branches placed in the first half of the dungeon. leaving extended aside, the two branches found in the second half of the dungeon are the vaults, which has a very D-like monster set (and layout, to an extent) and should be shortened in any case, and crypt, for w...

i don't care for game music at all, but i wanted to point out that soundcloud exists for a reason (.ru seriously). crawlstep CRAWLSTEP this sounds like the best thing edit: the song was better than i expected. it doesn't sound very videogamey to me. and lol did elynae actually say "consumer int...

i guess you're right. i also had the impression that they're somewhat more common than on D, though. maybe it's because of that one ossuary.
it's hard to tell, since ossuaries come so early you usually don't have many pots identified.

i think both patashu and the original poster were just referring to the relative abundance of bad pots (degen, decay and others) among the loot. the description was probably giving it a bit of flavour by suggesting the potions "decay" long before you enter the portal. it shouldn't be in th...

it doesn't work that way, it's more of a soft cap.

lies. hot pink is where it's at.

you can actually evoke invisibility to deal with that drake. when it fails it has no cost but a turn, and you can do it upstairs in this case. just keep trying. then go downstairs and try to get out of sight. i'd rather do that than go to orc (priests) or down the dungeon (a cyclops can one-shoot yo...

is there a single mube game in which you have *not* been gifted punk?
seriously, aside from this one and the splat from a few days ago, i recall at least another one from last year.

you can usually do most of those things by just dropping items. this includes corpse rot, book grenades, food and harpies (if you're in a corridor, which if i understand how harpies work correctly is the only circumstance when this applies). there's also chucking items into water or lava, which is e...

halfling zig floor!

ok that's actually a good one

magic.

magic.

stick with trog. you shouldn't ditch gods for stuff like that, trog least of all because his wrath is very tough. the brand on the demon whip is useless to you, but it's a high-grade weapon with a good enchantment, so stick with it until you find/are gifted something better. or get some short blades...

aside from the other general goodness, you don't need a million different piles for differently enchanted arrows anymore. which means you'll actually pick up some of those gifts when you play a hunter-type. which is good.

it's probably due to restricted slots. bots: "Acid damage increases for each unequipped armour slot (50% chance if wearing a cloak)."
and ops can only wear hats, so...

some defenses wouldn't hurt either.

the problem with most of the wiki guides is that the people who write them played that way once, it sort of worked for them, and used it to give misguided advice. that guide is truly bad, no two ways about it. Talked to death by two guys that pop in and give 0 advice to the OP. telling the OP to not...

iirc dracs don't get the wizardry bonus to dragon form anymore. they do get more AC, and it's tm instead of tm/fire, so it's still good.
crawlee: dragon form is not *that* hard to find, and while it's nice to have the option you don't really need any tm spell other than what's in the starting book.

the instructions on the front site are pretty self-explanatory:

you can also just open a terminal and type "sudo apt-get install crawl" (or crawl-tiles), but you'll probably get an older build (0.8 on my system).

you can also just not do elf.
you often do it for the loot, but the loot is on the last floor, which is a death trap.

that's just the success rate: (60+intelligence+invocations skill)/100.

they predate them by quite a bit. unless i'm misreading you.
i should be very much into them, but they never really clicked with me.

i stick with boris :)

well, i misread galehar's post then.
i'll stop spamming this thread now.

you mean you can't train shields with the spell memorized? if so, you probably should. Yes, it is now in book of Power. well, i was about to suggest that. i don't recall it being there last time i checked, but maybe i overlooked it. Venom Bolt doesn't actually do any irresistible damage (rPois+++ mo...

it's adequate in terms of a summon cap because it already has one. on the other hand, it favors getting out of LOS like no other summoning spell (unless it's changed, i haven't used it in a while). bolt of magma does irresistible damage (and is penetrating). it's rarely used because it not in a star...

it was nerfed around that time, iirc.
i played a game with it recently and yeah, it's not too bad for an early find but that's about it. it hardly ever triggers.

sometimes it comes up, out of the blue, verbatim.
xuaxua: *anyone* can abuse a rod of ice or poison.

the "nigh unstoppable spriggan with a rod of destruction" bit puzzled me for over a year. it's literally burned somewhere in my brain.

Pteriforever wrote:You shouldn't put anything into weapon skills before XL10

that's the opposite of what i do

if you get damage on unwield, you'll survive it with more HP. if you're abyssed there isn't much of a difference, yeah.
i don't mind early distortion that much, but i'd like to see it removed from god gifts (since it actually draws you away from the god, if you're abyssed and convert to lugonu).

I'm afraid I don't know how to kite with a naga without controlled or semi-controlled blink, neither of which I will have on D:1, will you please explain? naga are slower than gnolls, but that doesn't mean you can't *move in the opposite direction* (which is what "kite" was short for, bec...

unless he's very close i'd poison spit and kite, the breath timer is pretty short and you might be able to get two hits in and let the poison do some work.
still, yeah. i once found a d:1 hound on a streak and i was not pleased. it's rare, though.

the first time i found the vaults entrance i had the vault (one of the vaults? i think there are several now, but they seem very rare) with a few guards and it was pretty damn nice. so yeah, i think stuff like that is what vaults should be about. i recall there were interesting ideas in the dev wiki...
