I think you're looking for runrest_ignore_message. I have runrest_ignore_message += *unmelds* in my rc, which I think is for that situation, but you can tailor the message for your purposes.

Because casting hunger is mostly not important and the actual solution is not going to happen anytime soon? And while items that turn off features (...) are unfashionable they can offer some between-run differentiation within a playstyle.

Or give it gourmand because fat = power. Very flavorful.

This is basically a rehashing of duvessa's "least impactful" option. Magical staves could consist of: Staff of destruction -> enhances the spells "supported by Vehumet", namely the conjurations plus a few other direct damage spells. No resistances, special melee can either not ex...

In almost every discussion about strategic depth, a large part of the discussion revolves around but fails to acknowledge the competing interests of within-run and between-run differentiation (mentioned upthread). This discussion follows that trend, the suggested change would -- depending on knock-o...

Alternate idea: Zin suppresses all mutations on worship and prevents 100% of new ones.

Is having Zin be a drive-through mutation-wash for TSO worshippers a feature or a bug?

I would argue that the problem is not that 'melee' is too strong, but that heavy armour is too good. And given the cuts to spells over the last few versions, there is very little incentive to wear anything but heavy armour unless you're training a ton of conjurations. The only reason to not wear hea...

When I was a new player, I recall there being some confusion between a shield, the shield skill and shield value (SH) when reading the wiki. That might have been due to bad links, but it was there. I also recall not being sure if ctrl-f'in for 'mace' in-game was only showing maces because they were ...

Is it time for at least the basic FSIM to be accessible from in-game? If you play online, having to download local, recreate your character and run FSIM is a ridiculous expense of time and knowledge. For the longest time I avoided using it for that reason, but when I finally did break down and use i...

Hexes were great late game when mass confusion still existed. Still good, though Hepl might be better at it than you are. I haven't used hexes much since that change went in, how is Alistair's these days? Ignoring that it requires training two skills to level 5 in schools that you probably have no o...

Wow, that's surprising. In my experience this is really one of the better game forums. A) I think of the DCSS discussions on the web (not IRC or listservs), this place has by far the most informed discussions. The others I've come across are mostly new players giving bad advice to other new players...

We players are already convinced that spell failure and hex chance are lying to us. Making pacification chance actually lie to use would not be a good idea.

But that would just make winning at XL9 even easier.
