the reasonable tavern poster

why do you discuss utterly fucking horrible ideas
just call them what they are

it'd be nice if the formulas were more like those though
since they are not insane

yeah but who cares

1) don't

uhm
have we forgotten about crusaders already

me too
but i'll wait until they add controller support and then complain because the game wasn't designed for it

i know. but the point is that neither of those has much to do with tactics or bad play sure, you can actively try to avoid some of these things but that borders on paranoia zot trap badforms were really awful so the best advice here is to stop playing this particular version (i have no idea if this ...

blaming someone for bad tactics after zot trap tree form is a bit, i don't know, patronising? :p
there's a reason it was removed

Ditched Trog by accident training Spellcasting. you mean you got penance by accident and abandoned him? you can mollify trog with a few kills... if your plan was to train magic while under trog, well... i never comment on those things Train your skills in this order for this character: 1) Max axes....

felids are not a challenge race, and they're pretty broken
i don't know what "fun flavour" is so i can't debunk that

you were stat-drained by something:

you can quaff !restore abilities or drop some stuff and wait it out, you have a ton of str

if you're stabbing you want to stab with a dagger (and the brand doesn't matter much because most things just die) if you have a dtrident you should be using it instead of that trident (and yeah both are min delay at 14) if you don't have it... maybe you shouldn't count on it? and well basically, a ...

you want 14 for scimitars, not 12
always great character names though

how about just removing both player and monster summoning (god abilities are probably fine)
it's less "unthinkable" than you might expect

well yeah chain-zerking is just bad tactics :p

well the main point is that evoking something at 50% fail (or training a skill you don't need at the only point in the game where you might worry about food) is bizarre for such a marginal "gain" I'm worried about 'being able to berserk again soon'. It's suddenly becoming very hungry/near ...

people keep saying that but i must've stair-danced v:5 a hundred times :p
stair sealing is something else though

you have to set equip_unequip to false (or remove the option) and remove the bindkeys on T and R

it does help if you manage to pick up +Rage, for berserking without a food cost oh boy this has to come from the wiki it's utterly bizarre, don't do this and also stop worrying about food for god's sake Try DsFi, they are easier IMHO. I have played Ds just once and it got 15 runes so I stopped play...

mostly miles but fuck yeah

it's always been dead

good lord
you missed felids

i played a game of "crate extended" http://rl.heh.fi/morgue/orangebox/morgue-orangebox-20130725-184140.txt there's still a ton of xp (and probably takes a bit too long for my taste, but i'm slow so who knows) Also, do people really have a different experience each time they go through D1-5...

It's basically the opposite of normal sane Crawl play. Instead of avoiding dangerous situations you have to rush in whenever you possibly can.

what the
no don't do this

by late game you do the same as the early game if by that you mean "extended", you worry when you get there, but you should have a ton of permafood by then and there are some corpse drops. it's not the least annoying 15-runer but it's not so bad And makhleb is a great choice, but pretty mu...

train uc, eat the dudes you kill to regain hp, don't rest fanatically because you have slow healing it *is* true that they generally make lousy spellcasters, so maybe you should at least try to focus on melee unless you know what you're doing makhleb helps a lot forces you to go Kiku i don't even wh...

well, also

there should be a bit more variability so that every game with a certain class doesn't have the exact same early game

this doesn't make any sense, unless you like play defe^veh every game or something

so you're actually fighting dudes with a dagger? nice

iirc most brands are applied after the hit, which if you're stabbing just kills the dude, so not really?
chaos brand self-poly is one of the dumbest things in the game, but i think you can cancel it on the abilities menu now? that's my recollection from the last time it happened to me.

you can also use different versions (e.g. 0.12 and trunk) simultaneously but who'd do that

including Trolls, Spriggans, Mummies well maybe you shouldn't be playing mucks? i don't think xom's so bad now (unless you're playing a muck). i find heavy armour, decent-hp builds more reliable, so you may want to try a mick or a hock, or even ceck or something like that. ackack's mostly solid adv...

uhm i just meant that many people don't like extended much.

<Sequell> 99 games for absolutego (won): 67x 3, 12x 4, 10x 15, 5x 6, 2x 5, 2x 10, 9

also it was just an off-hand comment, i know i started it but let's keep things on-topic (pls)

there are many players with dozens of wins (or even a hundred) who keep coming back: http://crawl.akrasiac.org/scoring/best-players-total-score.html so yes for what's worth i'm with crate on pretty much everything, with an emphasis on crypt/forest and late D taking longer and being more annoying tha...

forest:
"Oh another elemental wellspring. ^qyes"

break the fourth wall in style

good thing i got my dungeon master win

why would you want ponderinghat with maxwell's
also the cloak of the thief is just super good, unless you're like a d:1 dagger dude?

1. big, bad vaults you cannot avoid
2. slow enemies you have to kite (jellies, spiny worms)
3. item destruction minigame

mind you we're talking boredom, there are things i dislike much more strongly than these

1. this doesn't address consumables with no tactical use. 2. less item destruction means non-zero item destruction so stashing is still optimal. and if this happens you may have to generate less consumables, which may make them more valuable, which means back to square 1? 3. EV characters would stil...

well i rarely drop things on the spot. i do that with blinking sometimes but that's it.
usually i kite things to a door i can close (works for dragons, ice beasts, simulacra) or a < and drop the stuff.

well there are two in this thread (bh branch, or remove altogether)

At the very least it replaces the current 4-5 clicks for dropping each type of scroll with one click for switching jewellery/weapons.

this is funny in so many ways

anyway try d?, d!
embrace the keyboard you tilespeople

i'm with crate, just disable this.
there's no way to have it make sense unless you make gr noticeably worse or statue form gr too good (because of slow).

oh, i admit i didn't go through the whole post. i don't read big posts on design because they're nearly always bad. (preemptive answer: i just worry about this thread because it has the potential to ruin crawl for me.) i thought you wanted resistances to factor into the chance the item is destroyed ...

that favours swaps to read/quaff safely which is awful

augmentation is not dumb anymore, so it works the other way: you get the bonuses *unless* you're hurt. wild magic is usually bad because it lowers spell success quite a bit, so it's pretty easy to decide if you can live with it or not, just look at the numbers. it looks tolerable so far but i don't ...

perfectly? hahaha

i hope that's not a commanderc burn, because that'd be an awful thing. i think this is getting too convoluted. the whole point of this was to try to get some means to tell at a glance whether that dude is probably giving you good (not necessarily infallible) advice, because the majority of those who...

10 shields and 0 charms on a defe.
quite impressive.

extra kudos for the XP complaint!
