I can see the argument for both cases when it comes to consistency. In one case, Haste and Swiftness both allow you to move faster and Formicids are barred from anything magical that would affect speed. On the other hand, Formicids are specifically immune to "Haste and Slow" which doesn't ...

I'm fine with buffs and debuffs. I guess my main issue with it is that confusion is too strong. A character with heavy armor is much more likely to survive not being able to cure it but a spellcaster wearing much lighter armor and they can't even cast any spells is doomed. Something like Hellmonk's ...

Think about it. You've just been confused near some monsters that are even potentially dangerous, what do you do? Drink a curing potion obviously. What if you don't have one or are trying to save curing potions for some reason? Well then you just have to live with a crippling status effect that leav...

Since I hadn't done it before, I decided to try clearing a Zig in my latest game. Went with GrBe for a quick and easy start plus that sweet torment resist for later. Switched to TSO for Tomb before finishing with the Zig. As for the Zig it was very nerve-wracking. Having both an antimagic and holy w...

STAY. STILL. DAMNIT.

First VS win and the easiest 15-rune win I've ever had (and highest scoring too). With +20 Slaying bonus I killed Boris so hard he didn't come back :D Of course I defeated all hell and pan lords too. I'd like to thank Okawaru for the Guantlets of War/Hat of the Shoals. Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup versi...

It's done. 15 rune win! Slew all hell and pan lords too :D 11931202 Roatex the Infernalist (level 27, 199/204 HPs) Began as a Deep Elf Fire Elementalist on June 12, 2017. Was the Champion of Vehumet. Escaped with the Orb ... and 15 runes on June 13, 2017! The game lasted 12:40:39 (138348 turns). Roa...

I've made a lot of progress now. Here's a quick update: -started with depths and found ignition and lajatang of Order -went to elf and found firestorm -did slime and vaults -learned glaciate and started training ice magic -finished all hells and pandemonium All that's left is Abyss (easy at this poi...

So what do you do when you're a Fire Elementalist with no ignition/fire storm? I'm about to go into the depths or vaults:5 and the best spells I have are fire bolt/orb of destruction. Vehumet does give me access to chain lightning/glaciate/LCS Here's the char dump Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup version 0....

Don't have the morgue file since it was on webtiles and no longer in my recent games but it was real fun entering Zot:1 into an entry vault containing a billion enemies. It's good that teleports are delayed too otherwise i might have actually had a chance to escape. Oh, and being constricted stops b...
