you don't need a vampiric weapon just cause you're a vampire. Also, there is no reasonable trade you could have for this brand. Its just sweet, kinda sets you up for a comfortable 3 rune game, just follow Trog and lifelink any damn executioner axe he tosses at you. Lastly,youre also giving up a dama...

If flying were more impressive, then hippogriffs and griffons would be more fun. Flying should let monsters occupy the same space as other monsters or the player so long as the total size is low enough. I'm sure this would be a nightmare to code and balance, but it would make flying monsters memora...

I think I would have passed on the quarterstaff, although the eventual upgrade into a lajatang...(sigh)

ITS TOUGH BEING A TROGGY

If he throws you Gyre and Gimble next troll status will be confirmed.

You better not SHOUT I'm tellin' you why

I like Ru a lot. Sacing a hand is pretty big. The damage your main hand does would probably be sufficient on its own, but a lot of people enjoy having that aux attack. You're also losing a ring slot; its a pretty loaded sacrifice, even if it does give a lotta piety. Accordin to wiki, chance of hesit...

Bros could do a little damage to orbs, but they're just Aa likely to get blown up in collateral damage. Might be a waste of a turn, just swing your weapon.

Fiveee, randart ringgggggs

Aside from supposed logic and archetypical brand to weapon associations, probably not. There's...some logic to brand generation. Daggers and whips being able to electrocute dudes sounds almost logical cause one's metal and the other's like a wire, but maces wouldn't have that kinda logical grounding...

First scroll read, no consumables used

Pretty good, i mean, scrolls of identify are really common.

but it IS true that it gets more dangerous.

I guess hoping to be able to cast invisibility in plate mail was a little too much, but I had come in here thinking that the stat shuffling would be more major. But who can pass up a plate mail like that? So I left it on and proceeded to stick to 5 runes. I had not tried halflings a lot. They're rea...

Someone wrote a wiki article on how to tackle megazigs. http://crawl.chaosforge.org/Mega-Zig I only got to try out level 2 zigs, and that was pretty scary. I bailed about halfway through. Supposedly, you'll get to a point where the floors are completely packed with enemies. Have fun on crypt floors!

How does monster stabbing work these days? "I can't attack or escape, but my hp are going up" is different from "I can't dodge, and every hit is extra strong." I believe they can't stab, for the most part. I think only totally sleeping characters are eligible to be stabbed, but ...

Code:: b - the +9 whip "Shyt" {freeze, rElec rPois Stlth+}

it's decent, but pretty Shytty

if he thanked 6 more times he'd have 666 thanks

correction: he *needs* 6 more thanks to get to 666 thanks.

candy cane reapers would be

sweet

Try using the code tags! [ code ] [ /code ] but without the spaces, and just dump your dump between them. It shows up in even-width font, like how its formatted in crawl. I think he's actually pretty lucky. a +9 demon blade, a plate mail, decent stuff in his auxilliary slots. work on the dodging, an...

Lajatang only takes...14 skill to get to min delay. It's a tough decision to me, you've already invested quite a lot in UC and transmutations. a godly cpa and a godly lajatang.

!rng cpa UC

Haste and finesse don't stack, I believe (that would be broken). But you'll still run faster! Manuals are free exp. If you haven't maxed the skill and are planning on training it some more, then a manual is worth it. I'd say book of battle for regeneration. shroud is a little flimsy at this point. g...

Shields aren't bad. Those weapons are pretty decent, but you will do just fine with a good double sword or demon blade (and there are plenty of those lying around). Besides, you already chose to invest 18 levels in shields; switching now would pretty much make all that shield skill worthless. Lernae...

I went in by accident, like I said, the confirmation message was there but I hit Y by habit, forgetting that Ru piety is a special kind of awful to get. He died horribly trying to rack up piety with Makhleb. If you want to double up on your sacrifices, any Ru follower can do that; just leave Ru and ...

http://crawl.akrasiac.org/rawdata/Dynast/morgue-Dynast-20141213-023418.txt Well, there goes another try, that was a good run though, i had some trouble by not finding a vampiric brand throughout the first 5 runes, or decent armor until i decided to enchant some dragon hides i left behind. I sealed ...

weapons have a base damage and a base accuracy (this is what shows up in the description; 11 and +0 for waraxes) and an enchantment (this is the number in front of a weapon; -2 for that artefact waraxe) your base damage is affected by things like your fighting skill and weapon skill and strength/dex...

Wandering a labyrinth

Absurdly sadistic vault. Gotta love crawl.

A bastard sword of speed! Sounds fun. Dith is great for any kind of game, even if you aren't using his potential to the fullest. Greatly improved stealth is very welcome to a lot of characters, fog when in danger and mimiced actions are great for anyone. Shadow form is still useful in three rune gam...

Wait what there is an artifact double quickblade?

at least it's an amulet, just swap it on whenever you need it.

Check out the skill progression in Lair. 16 dodging by lair:8, pretty solid.

Arcane marksman is not a bad start, but I hate ammo backgrounds.

Can we disable this trove type for Ru followers? Walked in by accident and now instead of being an almighty cripple I am a cripple. (This will be an interesting run.) On the topic of this character, should I take the chance to pick a new god or double up on my sacrifices? Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup ve...

if you call it Shutter one more time I might snap rN0 is not dangerous or bad for pandemonium, but rC++ definitely is. there are lots of sources of high cold damage, but not a lot of sources of high negative energy damage barring Torment, which you should be playing carefully around regardless of ho...

It sounds vaguely fantastical.

It's a joke weapon that has a random chance to get you killed, usually indirectly but sometimes flat-out instant death. You should virtually never choose to use a chaos weapon, and you should avoid melee contact at all costs with threats that may have chaos weapons. It also has kind of terrible fla...

No.

Someone else can list the reasons, I don't want to.

You did see him use glaciate a few times, and you didn't have any resist cold. Could have quaffed that potion of resistance first, might have saved your life!

Two wands of healing, a wand of teleport, and two wands of hasting :( Of all games for this to happen in, naturally it's with a character type i'm not familiar with. Demigods are actually fine. The early game feels a little tough, cause you get your spell levels more slowly, but honestly magic dart ...

So, there was a game I played a few weeks ago, where I got to the late game with my +20 slaying stabber, and of all things that the scroll of brand weapon coughs up it's the chaos brand for my quickblade. Needless to say that was obscenely fun. I'm not sure why I bothered rebranding it, a +10 quickb...

Demonspawn might have an easier time with necromancy but the investment required for death channel doesn't feel worth it to me. I imagine there are plenty more spells and spell schools that would be useful for you to train; for example getting charms up so you can cast haste, or getting translocatio...

Nice! Vampire with vampiric quickblade is a ton of fun. Were you unlucky with potions of might this game? I try my best to save a few for Zot, since quickblades feel a little pathetic against orbs of fire, especially with a brand that doesn't work on em. Haste makes the ascension considerably safer;...
