Xom is entertained by reflecting enemy spells back at them.

What do the 'attacking' and 'defending' headers mean? Not too familiar with fsim.

Code:: 12634 | Lab | Identified the Handbook of Monotheism (You found it in a labyrinth)

Found the "Handbook of Monotheism" (i.e. the bible) and promptly burned it.

I was just playing a HuBe with vampiric battleaxe, ~170 HP and 36MP, 33AC and 20EV. I found the brooch of shielding (Ward, rN+, +4 AC, +4EV), while wearing an amulet of guardian spirit. I switched to the brooch, but was wondering whether people think it's worth giving up essentially 36 extra HP in e...

Now it's fixed; my +41 dex ring morphed into merely +6 dex ring.

hehe +41 ring of dexterity is the first ring I tried on. I'll wait to continue this character until the bug gets fixed. Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup version 0.16-a0-1815-gfde0ed1 (webtiles) character file. Xen the Ruffian (Ghoul Warper) Turns: 415, Time: 00:02:25 HP: 21/22 (24) AC: 4 Str: 14 XL: 2 Next:...

Great idea! Thankfully getting high scores in most sprint maps reward speedrunning rather than xomscumming

wtf...

relatice?

Even if you're a flying hasted Tengu, the laernaen hydra can still kill you in the above situation when you move down left.

Nothing is stopping you from changing your mind later.

I died at XL 6 to a ghost with confuse and mystic blast. Ironically the last potion quaffed before death was a mutation potion which gave me clarity

If you want to have fun, play a DsCK! If you want to win, try a Vs or Gr.

duvessa wrote:Wand/spell/evokable invis gives extra contamination when it starts, potion invis does not.

I tested this out in sprint trunk and noted that both invis and haste potions give contamination as soon as you quaff them. So extra contamination as in, eg, +2 from wands at start and +1 from potions?

Is there an abyss portal ending to lair?

Orb of Gold. Followers of Gozag can summon one at high piety.

It still takes the same number of turns as a staircase to go through the hell portal and back, I just confirmed by watching my last game.

I was hoping for a mod where we actually play as cerebov (sword, firestorm, summon demons, 600hp, etc.)

I guess this applies to other portals as well... You can enter and leave the atrium of hell using either of the < or > keys. While it kind of makes sense from the perspective that hell is neither up not down, it can get you killed if you press < twice by accident. This can be avoided by using > as t...

YES! Been looking forward to this.

I saw a really hilarious death last night. A formicid of qazlal was on slime:6 and tried to set up a killhole in the slime walls - trying to use his mandibles, then opting to go with a wand of disintegration. Even with rCorr, 7 slime:6 slime walls surrounding you and the trj filling the remaining t...

Code:: K - the +7 hammer "Clailin" (weapon) {antimagic, rF+}

Try reducing all your stats to zero in wizmode. You'll see how much the penalties stack!

Watch out, you can focus yourself to death!

Edit: Thankfully not literally anymore.

Cell phone jammer is an interesting and helpful device when we don’t want to be bothered by the cell phone noise. I just bought myself a 4G Signal Jammer the other day, it is working great and BTW, it’s legal here in my country. c - a jammer. Evoke it for silence. Interesting and helpful device whe...

v - the ring of Faev (right hand) {+Rage rF++ rC+ MR+}

This ring is my faev.

Monsters can become friendly if you just talk to them...so any time you see a monster press 't' twice to talk to it. Keep on trying to talk as it approaches you! This is especially important for dangerous monsters you aren't sure you can beat...you want to try to talk to these even if they start hit...

Code:: H - the cursed +13 ice dragon armour of Ghio (worn) {rElec rF- rC++} (You found it in a bailey)

Found it in a D9 bailey with a DsCK, felt invulnerable briefly thereafter, then died in the abyss to a hellephant at XL 11.

There are also places (Pan, Abyss) where you might become eligible for TSO's blessing but not have easy access to an altar. Kiku could maybe bless you wherever, but probably TSO and Lucy are better requiring an altar. I actually think this is an even better argument for allowing TSO/Lucy to bless y...

Currently you need to backtrack all the way to an altar of your god if you want to take advantage of their weapon brands. This often involves a trip all the way back to the temple from wherever it is you were when you achieved the requisite piety. This seems really unnecessary to me; why not just le...

What do you want to acquire?
g - misc.
You have acquired herpes!

At least the axe of distortion was interesting.

True, true. It's just a really boring acquirement.

I got an unbranded, unenchanted animal skin.

Did you try rmut? Maybe that would help.

Hirsch I wrote:whats that stilish thing that looks like a coat?

I guess you're talking about the new robe tile?

Here's the screenshot.

Sonja was originally wielding a dagger of distortion, but is now wielding a quarterstaff. Is this a bug?

Seems likely since her sprite now shows her wielding both dagger and quarterstaff.

Yeah! I liked being in a clan in the 0.14 tournament. I have a lot less free time now but can probably manage a few games on the weekends.

(Xen on CSZO)

Well, this conduct really wasn't all that bad for a TrBe. Trog doesn't care that much about studying spellcasting as long as you're killing stuff fast enough. Training maces+flails in order to use rods does kind of suck though. Got killed due to carelessness, abyss while marked really sucks! Dungeon...

The healing on mutations needs to be toned down somewhat. As described, potions and wands of mutation are better than heal wounds at high XL (compare 2d(XL) + XL/3 to 9+3d28/3). Wands of polymorph are common and have lots of charges, so you'd get a ton of healing. Maybe reduce it to 2d(XL/3) + XL/3....

I've been trying this with a troll of trog, and so far at XL 10 with ** piety. I wonder how long piety gain from killing will outstrip spellcasting experience? -5 spellcasting aptitude helps a lot.

Speed 10 means you can run from them if they're not next to you -which is good- but you still can't kill them. There are usually strategies to overcome dangerous areas in the early-mid game, but reapers are immune to a lot of common methods (can't poison them, immune to magic, Sinv). DDoor+berserk i...

You can get away from the reapers by teleporting or going up/down stairs under cover of invincibility (their reaching attach means they won't follow you). You don't have a way to get rid of them early, so using the death's door ability makes large areas dangerous.

A being which has somehow become trapped between the states of life and death. It seeks the orb's power to break free of its personal limbo.

He can't be a troll, those have a really easy time with the early game.

Time warp facilitator would make a nice chei ability

I should've elaborated

I was having trouble with an unseen horror and polymorphed it into that bear.

Anything but firestorm

Sorry to hear it, it's always hard losing a character in extended.

Probably quaff haste, and if you don't die that turn, heal every turn until you feel like you can evoke teleportation, worry about surviving more than finishing cerebov. If you run out of healing before the teleport kicks in, summon some bros. They'll die quickly, but might buy you a turn or two. I ...
