Code:: Killed from afar by a young spriggan druid (5 damage) ... awoken angry trees

shouldn't it be "Killed by angry trees awoken by a young spriggan druid"?

use ` to repeat last action
not sure if you can use the "repeat number of times" command combination for channeling.. in general it's 0na where n is number and a is action key (e.g. s to wait one turn)

In your case I'd say right now - turn on Spellcasting & Charms and turn off everything else, aim for at least <10% failure rate for Swiftness & Repel Missiles.
You only need a few levels for Spellcasting.
If you do find a book with Haste, you'll want to boost it up more.

Ctrl-f on the X screen clears the map.
Ctrl-c during normal play clears the "found" items.

There are many possibilities. You can train up magic schools as you mentioned, or you can pick up a large weapon and train up on that, depending on what you have found so far in the game. Short Blades are generally not good later in the game as it takes forever to kill high-AC monsters. With Ash you...

I'd say it will be hard work taking down an Orb of Fire using Short Blades.
How are you doing against Bone Dragons? OoF has same AC but much higher EV.
It will probably help if you have allies to keep it busy while you attempt distraction-stabbing.

Don't go into too many spell schools at this stage.. level up Conj and use Stone Arrow as your main attack spell.

Iskenderun's Mystic Blast is good for fire and poison resistant enemies.
Oh and pick up Battlesphere if you find the spell..

Focus your skill training on Conj+Fire to bring up the power of your Fire spells.
Learn Sticky Flame.
Also train up Charms for Haste later on.
You have more than enough Tloc for now.

Forest Firestarter :twisted:

It's kinda redundant to have Tornado in addition to Fire Storm.. it's just taking up the spell slots. There's lots of loot in Slime. Good chance of finding CBoE there. Spells to ditch: - Magic Dart - Call Imp - Conjure Flame - Mephitic Cloud - Ignite Poison - Animate Skeleton - Poisonous Cloud - Fre...

If nobody wants to enter HoB now, why would anyone want to go in when it appears as a portal?
The dancing weapons can be used elsewhere though.. maybe give it as a spell to certain types of monsters.

You'd want Invocations at about 8~10 to get Finesse more reliable.
Stick with the Crystal Plate.
-Tele means you cannot teleport away in times of danger

Don't feel bad.. die and learn

You won't usually have enough Identify scrolls to do that in the early game. I'd just quaff unidentified potions anyway. If it kills me then I'd just roll a new character. Once you have curing & heal wounds identified, there will be less pressure to identify potions, then maybe you can wait for ...

Looks ok spell-wise. Pick up the useful utility spells too if you can find them. I'd use the wizardry ring over sustenance so that Bolt of Cold is more reliable. There should be enough chunks to eat. And do toss your bread rations on the ground somewhere.. you don't need so many of them in your pock...

It's really up to you to decide whether to continue to focus on spells or branch into melee. Your Throw Icicle is still far from max power, so you can still put xp into Conj & Ice, and then upgrade to bolt of cold when you find the spell. That would be my preference. If you want to branch into m...

Longbow is a safe bet

I'm playing a polearm user and i run into this gang of gnolls wielding polearms in a corridor. #.# #g# #g# #g# #.# #@# The first guy stops with one square to spare and we duel. The remaining gnolls sit and wait. Is that the intended behaviour? I know orcs and such will try to move around you so that...

Stabby stabby works, but you need a plan B against things you can't stab.
That can be melee with a big weapon, or some blasty spells.

LRD works on the treasure vault walls so you can consider that.. but take care not to break the walls and risk the loot being eaten up

The ghost moth is quite a strong enemy even if you can see it. Trying to bash it to death at zero weapon skill is not a good idea. There's also the risk that it might come along with other creatures. I'd stay far from it and fire my nukes. Every level of Fighting helps with your HP. Question is wher...

Skill-wise, it looks like at this point you're aiming to get Fire Storm reliable, so just stick to Conj & Fire. I see that you don't have a means of quickly recharging MP. Vehumet's MP refund helps, but learn Sublimation of Blood if you can find it. Bolt of Fire is also good, especially when you...

(no experience with it, just guessing here)
define a "border" for your map, and use the "Murray drop" mechanism from one of the Sprint maps
so that when you reach the border, it triggers the code that replaces M

Orb of destruction is good under some circumstances. I prefer Iron Shot though.
Turn off Traps and turn on Conjurations instead. That will get you more power for Iron Shot.
You'd also want a few levels of Charms if you intend to use See Invisible (once you get past Lair).

If you're asking about the entrance collapsing before you get in, yes there's a timer and the entrance will close if you take too long to get in.
After you get in, you can generally stay as long as you like. It's the same as the other portals.

How about this - any of the fixed Pan and Hell lords not killed WILL spawn on D1 on the orb run :twisted:

Make that scimitar useful - train long blades.

You need better success rate for Haste.. I'd aim for <5% failure.
Switch to Repel Missiles if you can find it. It's much cheaper to use.
Why do you want a demon trident when you have a bardiche? You'll need high Polearms skill to get it to min delay though.

Yup.. the new gift mechanism comes with 0.12

The spell appears as the first item on the "M" screen, assuming you have not learnt it.

Hmm it will be good to have an option to force more when a unique appears, rather than having to list down everybody..

If you have a cloak of preservation or enough disposable gear to swap, I'd suggest do Slime first and see if the treasure vault has any goodies you need.
Skills-wise, it is generally not a good idea to train up a skill to "prepare" for a spell - you might not find the book anytime soon.

While you're at it, use the vi keys for navigation

Some quick thoughts on how this "local game + chat" can be done: - Use the existing webtiles server and run it on the PC. Player uses the browser to connect. - Run a "local games directory server" somewhere. - The PC webtiles server connects to this directory server so that there...

Inner Flame and Conjure Flame - that gives you 6 spell levels to pick up Haste.
Then either level up Spellcasting for one more spell level, or find another amnesia scroll to get rid of Flame Tongue.

Can you run "make" without "sudo" ? (you might need to remove the existing directory and re-extract the source code first)

All's good then.. it just sounded a little worrying to hear you spending that amount of turns poking things with a quickblade

my stabber melees everything he can't stab with a quickblade. This takes quite a number of actions. You should find an alternative way to kill things aside from short blades, cos eventually you're going to run into high AC enemies that you cannot scratch with your weapon. Another alternative is to ...

Wield the weapon, cast fire brand (make sure it is successful and you get the "flame" effect on your weapon), read vorp scroll.

Oh, and make sure you're not standing near your pile of scrolls when doing that...

When you're ready to go find the rune in Abyss

Just bring along a wand or two for the spectres.. no training required.
Or if you have found a nice one-handed weapon, invest your XP there instead.

Find a safe place and take off that armour, so that it will be easier to memorise the spell.
Looking at your skills, you'll probably need some lower level Charms spells to get started. It will be a while before Haste is usable.

I'd focus on getting Ice Storm up, i.e. train Conjurations and Ice, and forget about Air.
You can turn off armour by the way. If you intend to upgrade to some heavier armour, do it after your Ice Strom is online.

How are you planning to kill things that you can't stab later on? Short blades are not good against high AC monsters.
If you're just stabbing, the dagger will do fine.
I see that you have a scimitar of flaming and some long blades skill. Maybe just level up Long Blades and use your EW on the scimitar?

You're following Vehumet so you'll get your Fire Storm eventually if you insist on it. Staff of Earth makes your Iron Shot pretty strong in the meantime so you should be able to do just fine training Conjurations alone while you wait for Bolt of Fire and Fire Storm. Then again, a few levels of Earth...

You have more than enough Traps for the rest of the game. Looks pretty good otherwise.. More Conj will be good for spell power, but I see you already have a Staff of Conjuration so that's not very critical at the moment. Do you have books with other useful spells? Lookout for Flight/Blink/Repel Miss...

Just bring some potions of brilliance to lower the failure rate. Fire Storm works fine against OoF, although it might take a few strikes. If you're not going for the extended game, there's not much to worry about a mutation or two anyway.. Edit: You have Orb of Destruction too, use it if the terrain...
