Would you care to elaborate?

It seems like a concern that wands of haste/heal wounds can have practically limitless charges, meaning there's not much reason to be conservative in using them. What if ?recharging had a 50/50 chance of destroying/recharging the wand? That would mean you would actually need to be careful about not ...

Maybe those don't stack with something though.

Code:: The orb of fire appears out of thin air!

Crawl needs more dungeon-balls interactions.

It takes some getting used to..
It seems like movement can bring a lot more enemies into LOS than usual.

I guess it could work together, as long as it only works when you're confused.

-Piety gain on exploration. *Passive: Ambrosia is more effective based on piety: heals more, lasts longer, gives a stat bonus. **May convert any potion to ambrosia.

This must be how deep dwarves recharge wands.

Ru challenge: join Ru as soon as possible, and always take the biggest sacrifice offered. Must leave and rejoin Ru immediately when piety is full, and repeat.

Better yet, tell them why they're wrong! I mean, it's not like anyone good ever spectates webtiles.

Ahem... congratulations

It's a trap!!

If vamp is freely swappable it might become optimal to start every fight with another weapon and then swap to it when injured, which would be bad. Can't you take damage and heal with vamp on the same turn? The turn it takes to swap would negate an advantage you get from having the first strike with...

Oh yeah, the most notable thing about this game was that I had sacrifice evocations and earth magic, so in order to get the slimy rune I needed to drag a deep troll earth mage all the way from depths to slime 6. Stupid troll almost died on the slime walls too...

Passwall will probably help.

Vampiric weapon prevents spamming rods, blowguns and launchers, there is no enough food to ignore the cost. Vampiric brand does not need a buff IMHO. I would argue that having a vampiric weapon mostly means that ranged spam is unnecessary, so that there's plenty of food for conservative rod/launche...

This has probably come up before, but I don't see any reason vampiric weapons specifically should interact with the food game at all. There's already enough food in that game that you could switch out vampiric and antimagic/holy weapons as much as you like; the only barrier to doing so is that it's ...

Which organ lets it blink?

Good change!

Autoexplore taking all stairs would be pretty nice in orc.

One step closer to 1-key crawl.

Personally, after I've autoexplored the level, I always check if there's any upstairs left I haven't taken (and if yes, I go and take them), before I proceed down. So I wouldn't like autoexplore to automatically go downstairs. In some areas I also want to possibly cast some buffs before going downs...

Zooty wrote:I wouldn't want to automatically enter V:5.

There would need to be a (y/n) prompt on entering V:5 for the first time if this was ever implemented.

Polymorphing grinder is a good idea, because he will lose his annoying paralysis and blink abilities.

What if, instead of telling you that a level was fully explored, autoexplore took the nearest unused down staircase? Autoexplore+tab could then proceed without that troublesome G+> interruption

Monsterless mode!

There are no enemies; just treasure, runes and the orb!

Ziggurats are completely optional, so if you die in one you are just teleported out with full health.

Real men follow Ru and sacrifice durability.

No thankscumming pls.

No, I don't like swapping idea. I got mutations from cacodemons while swapping to rMut before, the same can happen with Confuse which could kill me. I did use the rF+ amulet vs Cerebov, Cerebov used a wand of polymorph on me (I had only MR++ as I was XL 27 Fo without any MR gear), I guess I was luc...

Code:: Vaults:5 ::[=!?*!!?!???

Is this a bug..? I don't think I've seen half that many shops on one level before.

Let's say you've got +0 demon blade, +0 double sword, 9 scrolls of EW, 1 scroll of brand weapon.

Personally I'd enchant the demon blade (it will benefit more from other slaying or aux attacks if I have any), but I really don't think there's much difference between the two.

You and your opponent play separate games, but with identical map layouts. The position of each character is communicated across both games. You can both play at different speeds, but as soon as the other character comes into LOS, monsters overlapping either character position are deleted and you en...

He should have a 10% chance of banishing himself when entering LOS>

I think it's an interesting idea, but would't it mean that you would want to keep recasting the bubble so that you were always standing in it while exploring?

What about resist constriction?
*No friction armor*

I think it would be better if the corpse armor was permanent, with a spell power dependent chance for pieces to fall off with each attack affected by AC. It would obviously need to have diminishing returns per corpse as the accrued AC bonus increased.

Just like in LOTR!
