grey draconians are the counterpart for iron dragons, and i think they can be given a makeover. make them slower than usual to about speed 8, give them more ac from scales or even GDR from scales. they breathe metal shards that does a lot of damage but slow breathe cooldown? and a damage bonus for m...

although i would like qs draconian with innate swiftness

i really just got these ideas from wild imagination while reading learndb entries about dragons and draconians :D death draconians can gain torment resistance at like xl14. by holy wrath branded breath i meant that holy flame that pearl dragons had :D but i really dont see a nice way to bypass the d...

minmay wrote:Do you really want to excommunicate 10% of DrHe when they reach XL 7?

i didnt even think about that :oops:

i would say though getting excommunicated at xl 7 would be very sad as a DrHe.
i guess death draconian was a bad idea

IronJelly wrote: but they gain all the resistances and benefits of being an undead.

so maybe no food clock?
also i would rather have the bone draconian normal occurance percentage compared to other draconian colors but be less stronger.

so i thought symmetry with monster dragons and pc draconians should be further implemented, and thought of two more draconian colors. pearl draconian +1 unarmed combat, +1 invocation rN+ at xl 7 breathe holy flame (holy wrath branded breath) death (?) draconian -1 all weapons stat, +1 necromancy rRo...

how much throwing skill is needed to effectively kill early orc priests/wizards/warriors with javelin?
i rolled a SEHu and got swarmed by a band of orcs while i stood in one place hoping to kill everything by the time they got to me xD

i get bored as i enter vaults and die to mara around xl17-19
damn mara and his tempting demon trident
also innate reaching in all polearms

mara killed 2 of my most promising MiFi/Gl, i feel your pain D:

I think engaging in melee in that spot wouldnt kill you, but will kill many of your priests/sorcerors.
if you value them, i think its better to go up the stairs again and try a different staircase down.
also, you should wait for other people to comment, and consider their comments in this situation.

also, if youre using polearms, i think its better to take off the shield and focus on your polearms skill.
you can always pick up on shields once you reach min delay for a demon trident, which is only 13 skill level

I haven't played a Lugono worshipper before, but for centaur i really like Okawaru. he gifts bardings, javelins (assuming throwing), and weapons. also heroism can make up for poor weapon apts early on. also a pep note - it took me about 150 deaths before i beat dungeon crawl so keep at it. i think ...

flexible gameplay is probably what i lack the most. sad D:
i just have to keep playing

man, i really should just wait for replies when i post in the forum. these were all helpful, but not when i splatted like 10 minutes later i posted here :oops: thanks for the help guys, maybe my next CeAK will out-achieve this one.

what about twisted ressurection? is it worth learning and casting?

recently i tried some HONes, and found myself playing like a melee-necromancy hybrid all the time.
in other words, did not learn any of the animating spells.
is this normal to play a necromancer like a melee hybrid? or is it the "right way" to animate corpses?

uhhh so an elephant in D:9, fight or pass?

Fedhas appreciates your contribution to the ecosystem!

Even 1/5 isn't bad at all. One thing to remember: the RNG knows if you're using Greater Servant as a panic button, and absolutely will summon a hostile executioner when Rupert's coming for you. You'll have fewer "anal pucker moments" if you summon your nasties in a safe place and then use...

how to handle sigmund with a wand of polymorph other and a wand of enslavement:
1. polymorph sigmund into a jelly
2. wait for him to split
3. enslave one of them and make him attack his other self

so it works just like those board game thingys where you roll a dice for damage calculations....
Thanks Tiber!

Whenever I look at the formulas for damage calculation for spells and abilities, there always have been a variable "d" and I can't seem to find out what it means.... What is it?
