You guys arguing against adding new axes, do you actually ever use them? I just ask because I never do, even if I'm playing a berserker.

Haha, yeah, slimes killed my last level 27 (after I killed the Royal Jelly). Got Paralyzed. I actually got the the clarity mutation and did Blades and a few Pan levels (even killed one of the major Pan lords!), but then the game crashed and when I restarted the last back up was way way before that :...

Thanks for the tips! I did as you suggested and now I'm level 27. I have Blink up to Very Good, and I learned a few other spells. My last mutation was 60% torment resistance... for some reason I thought I would be completely immune... I'm assuming Hell is probably still too dangerous until I get mor...

I don't think it's necessary to include a cost, just don't include boring moves like "Power Attack". I don't think any move should replace your normal melee attack as the highest damage dealer.

I've got a Demonspawn Berserker I don't know what to do with. I've got terrible resistances, so I'm wary about going into Hell or going to Zot (plus I'm only level 23), but I don't have many other options. Should I scum the Abyss for piety and XP? (I switched to Okawaru in hopes of getting some bett...

I pretty much only play melee characters, so this topic is important to me. As much as I would like to see more variation in tactics, however, 'special' attacks always seem hokey. Like... after 15 skill levels, your character suddenly learns to swing really, really, hard? It just rings false. If the...

I always thought it was weird that you learn nothing while fighting an Ancient Lich, but then immediately afterward skill up your fighting by bashing rats. Shouldn't you only learn while you're fighting the tough enemies? What if you spent your XP as you fought the enemy? You only get the XP if you ...

Hmm... interesting... This is really neat. though I'm having a problem--maybe I'm entering the info wrong? I have these weapons: the -3,+4 broad axe of Trog's Displeasure (weapon) {god gift, speed, Str+2} a +5,+7 dwarven battleaxe of chopping {god gift} Surprisingly the average damages + brand / del...

One of my favorite things about DCSS is the random artifacts... it's like a drug (I usually go with Okawaru or Trog despite the fact their gifts are rarely useful). Are there any other roguelikes you guys know of that have random item generation somewhat like DCSS? I can't think of any off the top o...

Just died like this last night: Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup version 0.7.1-1-g7ce9b19 character file. 579905 Seth the Merfolkian Porcupine (level 27, -3/287 HPs) Began as a Merfolk Berserker on Jan 17, 2011.
