Constantly switching weapons gets really tedious. While not optimal, a distance damage penalty would be preferable to forcing a weapon swap to attack adjacent creatures. This is from a fan of non-optimal, lazy play-style (autoexplore, tab, cleaving, etc). I would probably never use ranged if no adja...

A summon is good for squishy DE, even if you only use it for a distraction to escape or to conserve MP. You can get Servitor without training summoning since you already have high conjuration skill. I personally like them with a DEFE since they last awhile and can help kill things from range, but an...

Tomb with firestorm, controlled blink, necromutation, and vehumet is fairly easy. On levels 2 and 3, blink to a hatch, blast away, retreat through hatch when necessary. Rinse and repeat. Hardest things are those birds that get reborn because they are fast and take multiple hits to kill. Maybe carry ...

I have a MfWr now that just finished Orc with a Knight ancestor. I'm treating it as a tanky summons to poke polearms over. It's working pretty well. The polearm-over-Knight strategy worked pretty well for my recent MiGl 3-rune win. I also trained axes a bit to handle getting swarmed out in the open...

I'm a dev, but I too would like to die less often. Wait, I'm not a dev. Damn it, I posted under the wrong topic.

What if regeneration spell caused glow like invisibility, so multiple castings isn't practical? Would that be too big a nerf?

Same has happened to me on occasion, when casting spells in the 'd' slot.

The pizza is slowly killing the monster. Eventually it will get clogged arteries, heart disease, then die. Don't give up so easily.

this one really sucks....

17520 | D:10 | Got a pitted cloak
17524 | D:10 | Identified the -1 cloak of the Vacuum {Dex+3} (You acquired it on level 10 of the Dungeon)

I saw the glowing shroud but figured it was that silly vault where the angel is encased except for a few grates. There was an orc in the neighborhood. I can only guess that the orc freed the angel with a wand of digging. Needless to say it was not a fair contest. http://dobrazupa.org/morgue/rjrrt/mo...

I like Ziggurat Sprint, but never got far until I tried crate's suggestion for singing sword + disc of storms. That is crazy OP. Won first time trying it. Only 2 hard levels -- one with a bunch of storm dragons and air elementals, and one with suppression moths. For those, potions of speed and berse...

I was playing trunk webtiles and went into slime. I love the new shading around walls. Makes it much easier to see the clear walking paths.

I just got a shop mimic on Orc4. This left only 3 real shops.
I felt kind of cheated out of my guaranteed 4 shops. Is this a bug, or just bad luck RNG?

I like the original proposal for Count Cards instead of Mark Four. I would certainly use it for decks of wonders. I've used triple draw on a deck of wonders only to find 1 card left. Of course it was shuffle. Of course it was on a high level spriggan caster and int became a single digit. Could not g...

How about a compromise of Kengu? That way nobody is happy.

In Crawl 0.23, the dev team will see the error of their ways.
There will only be a single race available, the Mountain Dwarf.

What if slaying damage bonus were treated like a stackable form of the slaying brand instead.
A slaying enhancer % could be stacked on any weapon used, regardless of existing weapon brand.
The % could be something like 3% per point. Is this a ridiculous thought?

Does the noise damage affect allies? I have a HOPr that found it and I'm afraid to use it if my allies will turn on me.

Grimm,
You had a scroll of acquirement and no boots. You could have used it on armour and hoped for boots of running.
A long shot, but something that could have made escaping easier.

I've had a specific book required for entry into a treasure trove. Sucks if that's one that got burned burned up.
