Despite multiple threats and continued harassment I will stand by my principles and take this opportunity to again denounce the abysmal standards of suggestions presented in this subforum as evidenced by the chronic failure of the average threadstarters to acknowledge both their limitations as play...

I've encountered all of them except the preserver on my most recent HOBe, they bring some unique threats that suit crawl really well. I especially like the sentinels and convokers, you can use their Mark hex and recall to lure monsters to a rare corridor, but most of the time they will just screw yo...

This living being is cute/pleasing to the eye, therefore I shouldn't kill, butcher, and consume it like I do with literally everything else

I'm just curious here, what in zot were you saving all those acquirement scrolls for?

You should be thanking him, all hydras are now cold-blooded in trunk

Oh man, I didn't even think of that. Gonna have to make a FE of Veh just so I can have a new fucked up way to kill berserked Duvessa

That's fair Mumra, everyone plays for reasons they want to. Yeah; you can clear Swamp/ Snake at XL:15 or less. Hell, you can even get a rune in <10k turns!!! But if you're playing-to-win and not playing to challenge yourself (in a game already renowned for being ridiculously challenging). If you're...

This deserves a bump. I always unconsciously imagined linley as more of a linus torvalds-type for some reason

Force Lance on its own can feel a little obsolete for a Cj start, but I could see it put to good use with e.g. Inner Flame. It's something for other classes to make use of, especially with new Veh letting you have it without anything else from the Conj book. It's also fun knocking zombies and dumb ...

Thanks for the advice - altho I didn't find that book with Haste in it until well after I was gifted fire storm, I'll remember to give Charms more priority next time.

I tried ignite poison the first round actually, but it barely scratched her and the greater nagas. Maybe if I had it at full power that would've worked.

The Snake Pit has no titled ruler and only one rule; Don't fuck with Lamia. 180817 traveller the Devastator (level 17, -18/99 HPs) Began as a High Elf Conjurer on Feb 1, 2013. Was the Champion of Vehumet. Blown up by Lamia (48 damage) ... with a wavering orb of destruction ... on Level 5 of the Snak...

I just got to Lair with a DECj, this is the most fun I've ever had with a mage type in the early game! You get all the flexibility of a wizard, but instead of the most boring spells in the game, you have all these cool new ones. :) Force Lance can keep your fragile elf hide safe on the first few lev...

Sounds great, gonna have to roll a DECj once this guy meets his no-doubt stupid demise.

Have any of y'all had the chance to mess with Force Lance yet? lv2 conj spell that does decent damage and has a chance to knock monsters back 1-3 spaces or so. It's not in the knowledge bots yet, so I'm not sure whether its vehumet-exclusive or if you can find it in spellbooks as well. I haven't bee...

I'm all for differentiating the elves but seems like you're really "grasping at straws" here. I love high elves but I would rather they be removed than have to worry about this crap.

I'm not exactly sure what that entails, if you explain it I'll do it next time (crossing fingers for my current promising DsBe)

nvm I figured it out looking at other posts

After about a hundred stupid deaths, I finally made my way to zot and got out with the orb! Had a few close calls near the orb chamber, but antimagic made all the big threats trivial. It was pretty funny how anticlimactic the climb to the top was; I don't think I saw anything tougher than a hellwing...
