Scroll Idea: Scrolls of Trance

Essentially the functional opposite of a potion of berserk rage with a similar goal in mind: destroying your opponents. When activating the ability, you start with a pool of xMP, perhaps as a function of Spellcasting. xMP is separate from the MP pool and therefore will not recover via channeling or ...

Re: The 'Questions too small to need their own thread' threa

Other than standing around in water and having conservation, are there any other ways to put out sticky flames?

Re: What to do against invisible enemies?

Slouch hits invisible enemies, if you've got Chei on your side.

Re: The 'Questions too small to need their own thread' threa

Does slowing yourself down via potions, wands, etc. boost Chei's Slouch ability?

Re: Why are there no "stealth" gods?

I had a sudden weird idea, somebody tell me off if it gets to be a bad idea: Make Cheibriados more stealth-god based. Chei's a god of slowness, so maybe he could translate into deliberate stepping that could in turn lead into stealth-based bonuses? Also, he's got Step out of Time, which fits into th...

Re: Ways to deal with Roxanne

Invisibility helps if your options are mostly melee. Her magic is ranged, so if you're invisible, her attacks will miss more often than not.

Re: Is a trove worth +5 dragon armor

General question: How much gold would one want to spend to take a trip through a trove portal? Or, how much money would you pay for items in order to get into a portal? I've got a 3000 price tag on an unrandart that my trove is looking for.

Re: Races Suggestion: Cast from HPer?

Are they living beings or should they have rN and rTorment? I can see this species loving Sif Muna. Hungerless channeling means they can quickly heal themselves whenever. Regarding rN and rTorm: That's more for undead creatures, and archons are more "good unliving" creatures than anything...

Re: Earth Elementalists

If you're looking for race suggestions...let me say that I love Troll Earth Elementalists, but I eventually got burned out on them after dying too many times in rapid succession and getting stupidly unlucky on randarts. Training up Transmutations (and of course Earth Magic) seems to be a heck of a l...

1) Why the +1 fighting apt? Where is that coming from? (certainly not their wizardly or "good" divine heritage.) More from bookish knowledge than anything. They know about fighting but they don't know how to fight (sort of like the skillset of an Ogre spellcaster) 2) Similarly, why the +2...

Races Suggestion: Cast from HPer?

I don't think I've seen this suggestion anywhere, so I have a couple of simple, unfleshed out race ideas that would allow for use of HP as a way to cast spells, if the concept isn't OP'd (don't really see how it would, but I wouldn't know :P) 1. A humanoid with medium-low HP and medium-low MP amount...

Hey, I'm currently playing a DESu right now, and I've got a question about stats. How many points of strength should I add during the third level up, if at all?

Re: Species idea: Stone Golems

Instead of generating a ghost after death, you can generate a statue, or something else of that nature (Memorials, perhaps? No Erections for obvious reasons :D ). Statue/Memorial of [dead player name] can't move, gets spells according to current ghost generation rules, but can choose to melee if any...
