If anyone has a replacement spell for Twisted Resurrection, I'd be glad to hear it. (Same for Sublimation for Kiku's first randbook but that's a different matter). I've been sidetracked until recently, but on my todo list is to either remove Twisted Res or replace it with a "one buff abom"...

Minor tangent, but that was removed in January.

^which isn't very abuse-able due to spawnrates/OOD P.S: The hidden temples make no sense. The game is designed around having a god, then they have these silly ones only found by going up a certain set of stairs, etc. I made nicolae_overflow_hidden_temple not-hidden. Please let me know if there are ...

The plan is to make it create one strong abom, like Sar said. And if that doesn't work out, I'll remove it.

And I should be able to get started on that in the next few days, so changes will happen "fairly soon."

The actual fix is that komodos lost sickbite. I'll probably think over purple ugly things and such later.

Drink !cur while confused.

I'll fix that later.

I've been wondering for a little while how to fix komodo dragons, or whether they should just be removed. Septic sounds fairly interesting; any chance you could give me some more specifics? How much HP/HP% is "rotted" per bite, caps on rotting, etc.

Have you ever died?

Uh.... I never mentioned anything about Nemelex being new or anything. I dont know why you're inferring things. Do you think he went that long without alteration? Nemelex has been tweaked and twiddled and tuned and twisted for north of seven years, and evey change was made with the intent to improv...

Pretty sure Nemelex has existed since before Stone Soup; not sure where you're getting "quick" from.

Made it mostly. This thread reminds me: I should put a cooldown on it or limit the spell to one singularity out at a time.

If you really want to gamble it is your call, but the sort of mutations you can get are "randomly teleports" and "randomly berserks while in combat" and "slow movement." commit 1d962ef99c5e0dfdcd8731349618404feef9eb1b Author: Adam Borowski <kilobyte@angband.pl> Date: M...

Update: Int's effect on vine stalker bite was removed, and manavamp keys off of mana/max_mana--You get more vamp the lower that is, and less the higher it is.

Should vinestalkers be able to drain magic from plants and fungi? No. However, they might not be in your case; "You drain its power" is printed for all things, since that refers to the antimagic part of the bite. You're only replenished if you get "You feel (very) invigorated." ...

Second bout of nerfs is in: Now you start at regen II and get III at xl8, and the manavamp formula is halved across the board. Now it is half of 1dDamageDone for non-spellcasters, and 1dDamageDone for spellcasters. Ideally manavamp will be somewhat less degenerate now, and regen II will make the ear...

Mmmm I tried to use the patch and compile it locally bit git complains about trailing whitespace. Any suggestions? Sorry, I used checkwhite incorrectly. I put a patch with the white space fix up on Mantis, so that should work (hopefully). If it doesn't, maybe try 'git fetch origin' and 'git checkou...

Note the above is stupid and only true in very few corner cases. By the time you consider training Haste your Armour/Dodging/Fighting should be at least 15 and the biggest 2h weapon you could find should be at min delay. Examples of Mi with 3 runes: + Level 26.7 Fighting - Level 14.0 Staves O Level...

crate: would removing 50% of the loot from D, Lair and Orc (say) sway your verdict about Elf and Crypt? If you survived that far, odds are good that you don't need anything for Zot (save maybe if you're hard up for rF++). That said, making the hardest part of the game harder to cajole people into a...

You can also use ?fear. reread the OP, plz Earlier. As soon as you go down the stairs. What did you even use your ?fear on? Because it works on guards and convokers ~3/4 of the time, which means ~3/4 of the entry circle running away, which means an easy time walking into a corner of your choice (id...

You can also use ?fear.

I think it's obvious that casters are guaranteed to have lower defense (HP, AC, EV) because non-casters train just one weapon skill (melee, unarmed or ranged) while casters train at least one magic school and spellcasting. And some players suggest training Stealth also (for casters only again, stea...

What "benefit" do ice caves and ossuaries and volcanoes have which Labyrinths are not? I haven't gotten Ossuary in a while and I don't much like Volcano, so I'll speak about Ice Cave alone. Why it's interesting, and therefore beneficial: Much like Dungeon+Zot, the main branches of Crawl, ...

So clearly people's reasons to dislike them, while possibly objective and real, and definitely valid for them, do not apply to everyone. I doubt that many things removed from Crawl were universally disliked: Fulsome Distillation and Evaporate were a blast for some because of multiflavored grenades;...

Another reason is that Nemelex is already a very fiddly god. While I don't detest the idea, it would serve to increase the overall fiddliness. Well exactly, it's really bad if it starts being optimal to manipulate your decks in this kind of way to improve chances of drawing [x] card. Isn't that lik...

Bad thread title, I thought this would be a thread asking to be able to shuffle your stats for a high piety cost. Sounds to me like what you're proposing would always be inferior to simply blind drawing from decks you don't want to get decks you do want. And each deck taking up an inventory slot is...

Hrm, think I ran into a bug, but I'm not sure. So I put on a ring of -3 intelligence as a troll. Whoops! Currently brainless at -1 int. So... I put on a ring of +4 int, eat a royal joyal, quaff a potion of brillance. I have 10 int and I'm still brainless. So... am I screwed or does brainless last a...

Last time I got to do this was 0.9.0 trunk, and Tornado simplified things quite a bit: I'd just charge in with Darkness, cast Tornado, and keep healing and channeling. However, it was a sketchy proposition even then, and unless my Air skill is still too low, it seems that Tornado's duration was redu...

Say, why are there temples like that, anyway? Isn't that rather spoilery and whatever?

Just did one of those the other day. Picking up Darkness helps, both for reducing the number of visible smiters, and for making sure your tornado (almost) completely fills your line of sight. Aside from that, use Haste, Necromutation, and cBlink back every now and then to channel back enough mana an...

I've been having another (minor) issue recently: With my character at level 27, I've been trying to pick up Charms, for obvious reasons. However, it seems that it's not making any progress, or that the amount of experience required is abnormally high even considering my current skill level total. I'...

I really like automatic mode; good job on that. However, it annoys me that using some skill just once inevitably forces you to gain a skill point if you didn't have one before. Especially since useless skill points sap some of your experience over time. Could someone look into disabling autotrainin...
