No, I'm saying you're probably a cat IRL already

do shadow draconian ghosts get their draining breath converted to draining breath? also this is the part of the thread where usually someone would say "we can't have shadow draconians because what happens if someone goes tso/ely/zin then turns into one", but dithmenos' awful fire conduct ...

thanks

Adding more "content" to the game is inherently bad, so that's a pretty good reason to not want to do it. Explain? I agree with the gist of the idea, but more species, more draconian colours, more unrands etc. doesn't seem like an inherently bad thing to me. Variety improves the game; opt...

Tier 1. I ended up going with hexes even though I don't like them because they're not reliable throughout the game. I also went for the first god I found this time, so Ru it is. I doubt I'll get 15 runes, but dammit I'll try. Amusingly, I'm only on D:15 because I got shafted from D:13, which was alr...

Like Shulal, this god has too much stuff. With just the passives or just the actives, it'd still be a lot of stuff for one god.

You incur no wrath for leaving Ely, so it's a nice stand-in until you get Jiyva or decide on a god. You get decent powers pretty fast.

Had to cut some of the dump for post length reasons. Commentary: The road got bumpy when I ran into Cerebov. I quickly realised that no matter what I did, I wasn't going to manage to kill him. So I blinked past him and stole the rune, and decided I'd do the same against any high-AC endboss. For that...

In the Vestibule, before Cocytus:

Your body shudders with the violent release of wild energies!
You feel resistant to cold.
_You feel less contaminated with magical energies.

Cleared Crypt, got loads of money, purchased PProj and CBlink. Advice still welcome. Silence works on Greater Mummies, right? If so, I'm thinking I can bump Tomb to be my first bit of extended rather than my last, since it should be easy if I can just silence everything there. Dungeon Crawl Stone So...

Nothing in particular, it's just intrinsic to my nature not to buy something I have a decent chance to get for free. Crypt shouldn't kill me even if I lack PProj and CBlink.

Try an IE (or a TeAE/HEAE) to clear Lair with. Ice has the damage of fire plus good utility (including slowing all the cold-blooded things in Lair), and a TeAE has +3 aptitudes in Conjurations and air magic.

Vehumet is better than Sif on anyone who wants to kill dudes with spells.

Both PProj and CBlink cost more than 1000 gold at the moment, I'm hoping to find them on the floor before extended so I don't have to buy them. I will, of course, buy at least CBlink before Vaults:5.

As always, I want 15 runes. I'm unsure how to allocate XP now, though. I'll need some more armour and invocations, but I don't know what spells to go for. Shatter would be great, but -2 earth. I'm not sure how useful Tornado would be, but it's the easiest to stretch for. I'm also not sure whether to...

Can someone tell me what FR means? It's not on the wiki and 1046 results on the learndb.

edit: just after posting this, I realised the learndb is, in fact, sorted alphabetically and that I'm an idiot. Feature request, gotcha.

Sar wrote:Well, Trolls aren't strong because of +0 UC, don't Ogres have +0 UC and +3 Fighting? But yeah.

Ogres have +3 m&f and +3 fighting, but they're still not stronger than trolls somehow. UC is very strong.

Thank you for directly confirming what I said, I guess? well my original point was just agreeing with the guy calling VSTm OP in this context, where I added that UC attacks are fast, which you disagreed with also yeah, obviously dragon form isn't that great on felids, but honestly, what is? (probab...

Large undead caster would be a really cool concept (and wendigo fits), but this proposal just isn't very good. 3 UC and 3 fighting aptitude is absolutely ridiculous; trolls are extremely strong with negative attributes everywhere and 0 UC. Basically, this species would just be trolls but better.

duvessa wrote:Tab is broken with ranged combat, I think if you disable animations it will help.

How do I do that? I haven't managed to figure out the rc – it just looks like it's entirely made of comments to me. Am I missing something?

Yeah, dragon form is really underwhelming. In my felid experience, dragon form has actually tended to directly lead to my death, since it kills my EV and doesn't make me all that much more powerful. On any other transmuter, statue form seems better anyway, too. that's at 27 UC, which is a truckload ...

Sar wrote:UC isn't fast

???????

5 auts mindelay isn't fast to you? I'm pretty sure only quickblades are faster.

Looks something like this. http://puu.sh/ntNHr/ce24209e24.png I've been noticing some other oddities too, such as arrows dropping at my feet while I'm tabbing and randomly reading scrolls of fog while I'm tabbing. Hitting r l while tapping tab isn't very likely, so I'm honestly stumped. I'm guessing...

Sar wrote:VSTm is OP now?

VS in general is really strong, and Tm means you use UC => fast attacks => more antimagic bites.

Also, Cerebov isn't that threatening. He's much more benign than Lom Lobon, Asmodeus, and Dispater.

Keep Chei AND the armour. It's great armour, and the +10 int is fantastic on a Chei worshipper but kinda worthless if not because your strength will be too low to sustain it. It means you'll have to play very, very carefully, but it'll be a learning experience. Ever played a formicid of Chei? It wor...

Shapeshifters can also be giant eyeball-shaped. That, and golden eyes exist, so I confused the two a bit.

-snip- I wholeheartedly agree with pretty much everything you said – I personally don't think torment/hellfire wombo combo is too strong , I think it's overused throughout extended, which makes the experience rather samey. Consider: 10 of the runes are part of extended, which is chock-full of torme...

You pass into a different region of Pandemonium. Searing heat pours from the floors and walls of this place. The mighty Pandemonium lord Cerebov resides here. _He guards the fiery rune of Zot. Found six items. _You now have 7787 gold pieces (gained 23). You pick up the fiery rune and feel its power.

This proposal is great. I'm not a fan of the current wand situation, mostly because you just find one wand of a type and then don't bother to pick up any more (in my case, it's too much of a hassle to drop my wand upon expiry and go get a new one instead of just recharging it; I tend to have a surpl...

Shouldn't this be in GDD? I'm not sure if this change in particular is what's needed, but something should definitely be done about extended and torment/hellfire. It's not a whole lot of fun when literally nothing is a threat unless it can hellfire/torment or is currently acting as a meatshield for ...

Obviously, but after being chain tormented, you're not gonna have max health before every fight, which I have up until now in Tomb. Engaging on like, half health sounds like a recipe for disaster.

Usually, I just rest up after every fight. Can't do that as a DD, so what's the replacement strategy? Spam hw after every fight?

Deep dwarf speedrun? Ayyy. edit: I actually managed to forget what I was doing, and volcano loot changed things too much for me to argue against disqualification on this run. WELP.
