Re: Rune order past first 3

Well, I don't have much experience in late game branches, but here's my own order of diffuculty: snake/swamp < vaults < shoals < slime < zot < abyss < pan/hells < tomb Many would say that abyss is easier. Not for me - escaping abyss can take some time, you can't just leave it anytime you want. The m...

Re: DCSS Weapon Comparison spreadsheet

I think there is some minor error in line "Fix weapon type delay if playing trunk", C86,D86,E86 - they all must have K1 in formula.

Re: wands and evocation

I just finished a game where I (MDFi) spent a lot of time dealing with lots of duplicate wands and juggling inventory. How would it be if, based on Evocation skill, charges in one wand could be drained/destroyed into another wand of the same type? Or perhaps any target wand? Yes, some way to merge ...

Re: the Weapon Reform

Confirmed, katanas are still there in 0.8 (just found one).
BTW, in 0.9 demon whips and tridens were nerfed. But both of them are still superior to demon blade. And in fact player is likely to find all this weapons at the same time (group of hell knights). Maybe boost demon blade damage by +1?

Did you play it? Someone actually took it upon himself to implement Euclidean. Simply reiterating your opinion ranges between lukewarm and offending at this point.

Re: How to Remove Victory Dancing

The plan is not to make VD even harder. We'll add a manual mode in the skill menu which will allow you to select the skills you want to train. All incoming XP will go into the selected skills. Then we'll add an automatic mode that select the skills to train based on previous actions. No more XP poo...

Re: Anything changing with circular LoS vs. diagonal movemen

Well, I'm fine with the current system, don't mind square LOS either, but honestly, I don't like this 1,4 (14) diagonal movement thing. To me, this is contrintuitive, complicated, and maybe even exploitable. IMHO of course.

Re: Some feedback and suggestions (0.8)

I've win enother time, this time with MfCr. You can find YAVP here . So, again, some feedback. 1. Okawaru. In 0.8 become more "thematical". God of battle should favour combat, not fleeing one. Haste is often used this way, so it's replacement with Finesse is a good thing. But, Finesse is s...

Re: YAVP -MdFi the MDfi

just won again, but with a MDFi again. I have no idea why vault 8 is the standard choice for a three runer when the abyssal rune is so much easier to grab; i don't even know if ancient liches spawn in the abyss, and elf 5 elves certainly don't. that makes the abyss 500% easier. that makes 2 victori...

Just some questions

I was doing some testing in wizmode and notice minor differencies in interface. 1. AC (xx%) - is this guaranteed damage reduction? I guess it is, just want to be sure. 2. Spell power interface like 92(200), instead of bars. Is this some way (maybe some option in init.txt?) to enable such power view ...

Re: the Weapon Reform

As for katanas, i've only found this famous trope once(!) and never ever had a chance to actually use one. And looks like never will :D BTW, my proposal - weapons can be grouped in 3 categoties: common, rare and unique. Common are just that, in every game you should be able to find tons of this. Rar...

I like this. BTW, the mechanics will exactly match in-game description, which imho is good for consistency.

Some feedback and suggestions (0.8)

First of all, thanks to all the developers for the great game! Recently i got my first win in 0.8 (MDBe) (my YAVP is here ), so there is some feedback on this. Armour. Seems far better then it was in 0.6 and 0.7, heavy armours are again a good choice for warrior-type charasters. I definitely like th...

Yes, and it was really fun (and helpful!) to lure all this dangerous creatures to place there I can safely kill 'em :twisted:

This is my second DCSS win (first was in 0.5.2 long time ago). After a few dozens deaths (2 of them in Zot, with 27 lvl char) this victory game was not so hard. Learn-by-mistakes is a great winning tehnique :) Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup version 0.8.0-a1-37-gfb6cc5c character file. 1871853 Potemkin the...
