Quaffing potion of mutation is generally a good idea. I disagree. Maybe one can argue that you generally get good results from it, but that's not enough to make it a good idea. I'm sorry, there was a typo. I meant "Quaffing potion of beneficial mutation is generally a good idea.".

it's different from potion of mutation because quaffing it is actually a good idea Quaffing potion of mutation is generally a good idea. In many cases body-slot mutations can be considered as bad mutations (they prevent some armour). So it is just percentage of a good mutations that is different. I...

Potion of evolution: adds one level of evolution mutation.
Right now benmut motion isn't differs too much from potion of mutation. Replacing it by potion of evolution would make bigger difference while adding more fun.

That's how WM looks like in real life.

If the spectral weapon is the spirit of your wielded weapon, why it can't strike the invisible enemy that you can see? Also for comparison Battlesphere can fire at invisible things (even ones you can't see) Although I think that might be counterintuitive and it probably *shouldn't* be able to. I th...

If the spectral weapon is the spirit of your wielded weapon, why it can't strike the invisible enemy that you can see?

Make Infusion consuming i. e. 10% (with ceil or randomized rounding) of your max MP per hit and you will not want to use it in late game. Or it can cost i. e. 10% of it's spellpower per hit. You can even raise it's cap now. After all, it's damage/cost ratio will decrease with spellpower raising (bec...

Yes, I played yesterday and AFAIR SW was acting correctly.

This is very strange, I can't see that my spectral weapon (elven long sword) strikes at all. It just works as additional part of me taking enemy damage. Of course Spectral weapon is adjacent to both of me and foe and has the chance of attacking. _You draw out your weapon's spirit! The gnoll barely m...

The in-game description says that it enhances melee skills (like Oki?), so it can be confusing a little.

Do you know how to go about vectorizing it for use on OSX? And have you posted your vectorized version of the CGA font anywhere, or the process you used to create it? I have used FontForge and potrace for bitmap->vector conversion. I would post ttf-version of CGA font, but don't know if it legal. O...

I like classic 8x8 CGA font, it is oldschool (I feel it is good for roguelikes) and has height = width.

So how about hydras?

New book looks really charming!

Well, I've always been confused by golden helmets being corroded.

Seeing that jellies leave stones unharmed, I don't think they produce something that strong.

Playing new improved skalds feels ok now in early game, but it's a pity that this enhancement haven't included in 0.12 prerelease. So it is need to wait .13?

What blade is better to bless with TSO taking into account that my character don't use physical shield? Wiki says that the best blade for blessing is Demon blade (resulting in Eudemon blade), but maybe it means that it's for single-handed weapon only? Isn't blessed triple sword would be better for m...

I registered at CDO online server, and Crawl don't allow me to type name of character, it is using my login name as character name. But I want to play various characters with unique names, and don't want to register many CDO accounts and to edit options files every time. May be there are some ways t...

it should also be possible to edit the colours by right-clicking on the crawl icon (or the window, while it's running) and adjusting the properties. Oh, yes. But I don't like that I need to do this for every new version of Crawl (if installed to the new folder), and also I prefer classic ANSI color...

I want to discuss the ways to make online console gaming looking and controllable as standalone. I am playing Crawl for many years since Darshan's vanilla. Of course there is plenty of habits that are hard to break for me. For example, I need the same colours as CGA OEM, the same full control as sta...

Yes, it is possible. Run this .reg file (or modify it as you want): Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Console] "ColorTable00"=dword:00000000 "ColorTable01"=dword:00aa0000 "ColorTable02"=dword:0000aa00 "ColorTable03"=dword:00aaaa00 "...

Thank you lordfrikk, Roderic! Now my crawl console looks fine again (especially using 8x8 or 16x16 font).

(May be this was discussed already, sorry if was. Didn't find it with search.) In 0.8.x console versions walls are displayed with '#' character. In prior versions walls was displayed as block, and I liked it. Is it possible to switch wall looking to older version? Didn't find appropriate options in ...
