Dear Sir or Madam, The time has come to inform you that I am of the opinion that the origininal, self-created being known only by the name of Khufu is in dire need of a new tile for the very simple reason that his current artistic incarnation looks virtually identical to the affronts to the cyrcle o...

It is an eye that drains your mana. Close enough...

The culling occurs naturally in crawl, no need to give them any ideas *cough*. Anyway, here's my take on the matter: Gods 1.Gozag (♫ Midas is king and he holds me so tight / And turns me to gold in the sunlight ♪ 2. Ely (Take the one thing that makes something unique and remove it and this is the re...

You can use PoG as a makeshift shadowstep as it dramatically reduces the chance of being detected since you need to take less steps towards an enemy. Requires high stealth. 1. Spot a sleeping enemy 2. Take a few steps back 3. Open a gate close to the enemy, ideally adjecent 4. Step through the gate ...

My concern with this is that it would make warper much less appealing for ghouls and trolls since you'd lose the option to go unarmed,
which is a shame because guaranteed access to blink is a real blessing for those brutes.

I would strongly advice you against introducing a "unthank" system. In my journeys through the internet, I came to the understanding that forums with a thumbs down option suffered from increased toxicity and it was often abused à la "I'm just going to downvote this person's post becau...

You can get rid of the footprints by adding the following line to your rc file: show_travel_trail = false EDIT: Nevermind, I can't read. No idea about tracks in explore mode, seeing as I have never used explore mode... EDIT 2: No mouse support online was annoying at first simply because I was so use...

You reckoned without your host...

I'm sure the moment you wrote asshunter in that poll you knew the winner already

I vote for "Suspected Spy".

Don't worry will be deleted by mods. Again.

Why don't you just add a time keeper zealot to your own hack of the game and save everyone a lot of trouble? Starts with tm book and worshipping chei or whatever.

I want to know the border between what goes and what doesn't and by that I don't mean the standard "No fondling body parts that the other one doesn't agree upon" rules. I'm tired of accidentally hitting a sweet spot of one person when to the other 7 Billion it didn't bear any harm in any c...

My price for the absolutely worst tile currently in-game goes to the earth elemental though

Congrats on your win. How you could bear to live under new ely eludes me, but makes your win even more impressive. Anyway, as you figured yourself, it can be difficult to compare forms seeing as different races/gods lend themselves better to one form or the other. Here's my take on it: Spider Form: ...

Unless your species has terribad apt for it, spear

What advantage does Fedhas provide against these? Is there something I am not aware of?

Praying will decompose them seeing as they are living corpses

this is not going in 0.16, sadly.

Almost all of my gaming takes place after the kids have gone to sleep. This is my primary problem: The gf refuses to go to bed without me, even though I generally require less sleep than she does. Sometimes it happens, but rarely. In any case this is probably all far too much personal info/ranting,...

Idk, ever since the re-re-re-re-re-re-remake of artefact generation, I abandoned the idea of getting a piece of equipment with no negative attributes. -resist X and -tele are lethal enough if you ask me.

Ever since I discovered that I am actually able to win the game, I am more frustrated when I lose a character. Why not just take a break? Maybe your heart will lust for crawl battle again. If not - nothing forces you to play crawl (I hope). I can recommend Marvel Heroes 2015. The mindless slaughter ...

New here? You have been to many internet graveyards, but tavern still weirds you out?

Yes why no new dissolution tile?

Thorium Dragon
Breath Attack: Deals damage and leaves a lingering cloud of mutagenic fog behind.
Armour: Extremely cumbersome, excellent AC, rcorr, contamination

Will there be more let's play videos from tasonir?

Just one more reason to remake polymorph wand

I personally appreciate it that we are not on elitistjerks.com (this is not a play on words, I mean the actual site) where a fake air of scientific supermacy domitnates. It's laughable.

There's not much point in having unarmed combat in the game if it's going to be the same as using a weapon anyway. And all the weapon types are mostly kind of same-y anyways. [Axes' difference becomes relevant very rarely for a good player. Short Blades greater stabbing is cool ... Ice balls are re...

gud: Vault Guards I always liked the human guards of Vault and how they work together. Eeach of them (well, except Vault guards, which are just there for muscle) have a not-hard-to-understand-but-its-going-to-cost-my-life-if-I-do-nothing-about-it ability, henceforth known as nhtubigtcmliidnaia .

Probably horrible idea: Backtrack - Teleports you back to the entrance of a branch that you already visited. Cannot open gates to the Abyss or Pandaemonium or any-non permanent branches.

Funny, I always thought of Tloc as one of the more diverse skill sets... Apportation, Blink, PPj, Shroud of G, Passage of G, Force Lance, Warp Weapon, Summon Forest, Force Lance, Gell's Gravitas, Malign Gateway, Singularity... I can see where you're comming from though, Controlled Blink is essential...

Huh, I thought that CYC was the abyss... an endless, chaotic place full of shapeless horrors not meant for the eyes of man. Yup, sounds like my threads allright

PS: I like your new avatar. It has a druidic touch to it

I learned that Trog can gift distortion the hard way

As the following 100% scientific decision flow chart shows, deciding whether to do extended or not comes down to the question whether you have statue form or not.
I think this is not healthy for the game kappa

Maybe he just likes fish and mistakes you for one.

Worship Fedhas. This is good advice. Not Fedhas specifically, but something that can get you going early on. Ashenzari and Yred could be good alternatives. Yred is pretty powerful early on and Ashenzari's skill boost feels more helpful the more your skills are spread out - which will generally be t...

So, from what I understand (correct me if I'm wrong): -There are dramatically more traps in the dungeon than before -Shadow traps were added (I actually find those a cool addition) -The chance of detecting traps is solely based on XL with the exception of some divine abilities, TSO and Ash help dete...

What is the VERY first thing you do when you start a new game of crawl (besides opening a can of beer)? That's right, you hit m and set your skills to manual and readjust them.
