EXP and mutations, and to a lesser degree, rotting.

Menkaure did something and I got that message. I think it's just flavour text.

Now for something a bit less impressive:

ebarrett wrote:xom is a genderless being beyond human understanding, with a chaos-branded strap-on.

Disturbing mental imagery right there.

Can somepony explain what this message means?

You climb downwards.

[[Now I'm on D:5]]

Menkaure comes into view.

[[Okay...]]

A centaur comes into view.

[[Alright, that's more threatening, but I think I'll be fine]]

A steam dragon zombie comes into view.

I just had Sigmund spawn with a +5,+1 scythe of protection.

I'm such a sucker for protection brands.

Does anyone know how to assemble a V-cube 6? I have like two of them, and they've both exploded into their 213 component pieces.

My favourite casty class was Anorithil. They're gerat fun, but you tend to run out of options with them must faster than you do with Archmages.

I once found a ring -- forgot the particulars -- that was {+Inv +Lev}

Two bonuses I never use. Nice.

SWL was sooooo fun. I diedthe first time i went in there and glitched out, but it's just so cool. I like the second bosses. After you come back from the other continent -- Your level will be in the late 30s when this happens -- a bunch of areas grow new bosses. One time, I got the sunwall faction ho...

Even if you bulldozed Elf:4, Elf:5 WILL kill you. Full of banishers and people with crazy conjurations. Don't go there.

Armour cuts a set amount of damage and defence cuts a set percentage -- Neither are very effective. Resistances are capped at 70% and cut large amounts off particular damage types. They stack multiplicatively unlike everything else. Immunities give you a probability of avoiding status effects altoge...

That would be the best game evar.

My newest DrSu is doing extremely well -- XL15 in the Shoals. The monsters themselves aren't very threatening and I'm pretty much blasting my way through, but this char has had food problems pretty much since the beginning. I don't have rPois, so at this point of the game there aren't all that many ...

First monster I find is a kobold hidden around a corner just like ogres like to do. It's got a dagger of draining.

I had no idea Kirke summoned VERY ugly things... I got mobbed by them on D:15. After I died I went to look them up on the database and apparently they're speed 11, so I could have just easily ran away... rest in peace my beloved TrEE. Summon Ugly Thing has a chance of producing very ugly things bas...

If you don't get yourself murdered in like the first five levels, then nothing whatsoever can threaten you for the next bunch of hours

This also applies to ToME to an extent.

Just got a mottled one for the first time. Sticky Flame berath is amazing.

It's tempting using this just for rF+ rC+, but I'm far, FAR too much of sucker for protection brands, which I am curently wielding, to even consider that.

Fix up some portals. I hear there's an ice cave with 1s in it. This is an early midgame vault, people.

Snake is not that bad. First time I went into Snake I was XL14 and I came out with the rune.

I didn't have blink.

IMO Elf and Shoals are still much harder.

If you see a large rectangular room with a door in the Lair, don't open it if you're not ready for mass bees/J's (jellies, brown oozes, even azure jellies).

You think that's bad? I found a vault with ACID BLOBS.

Change the site's subdomain from "crawl" to something else. These days, whenever someone hears "CDO" they think "cloudsdale.org".

That said, We should set up a Crawl group on CDO.

Don't ask me, mate, that Berzerker I posted about above is my highest character yet. Though I can't help but feel this Temporal Warden is mental. I just killed the Minotaur without him ever hitting me. And I have so much mobility options, and I love that - I can blink myself, blink all surrounding ...

D:8 Gastronok.

Dat airstrike.

Scorpion zombies need their own tile.

Just found a vault containing grassy areas with musa plants, grape vines, and an apple tree, the area scattered with fruit. Behind a large door, there was a deep dwarf artificer and a bunch of assorted healing potions.

I'll probably still be on 0.10-b1 until trunk page updates.

I find the best way to deal with bees is Summon Ice Beast. They hit pretty hard and have rPois.

Scroll of immolation can't kill trees, but wand of lightning can.

I seem to get grey more than any other colour. I don't think I've ever gotten red or yellow.

...you find two extremely rare scrolls right next to each other.

*reads unidentified scroll*

DING! TORMENT!

*reads other unidentified scroll*

DING! SILENCE!

The ability to use any 32x32 .png as your character's tile. No offense, but brown dracs are kinda ugly.

I hate draconian ghosts. I mean, draining breath? Seriously?

BRILLIANT!

We've found the next Shakespeare everyone!

ToME used to be really fun. I got -THIS- close to winning on two occasions with level 50 Cornac Beserkers who died on the final goddamn fight. I quit when they started demanding money for game features. I liked its lack of a food clock, though, and melee combat was actually interesting. Controls wer...

Give uniques their own theme music, which plays if they are within a circle of radius 12.

Well, /ma/ allows image sigs, and we're just as geeky as them if not more

Bring on the rainbow gradients and furry art.

Has the forum broken?

Nope.

k, thanks.

I found these at the entrance to the Lair:8 vault:

Is this the hellephant vault I've heard so much about and should I be afraid?

On topic: Summon Ugly Thing is really hard to get hungerless, but the alternative, Summon Demon, is extremely dangerous.
