the latest update: everything is going good for now, so something bad is about to happen :) Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup version 0.21.1 (webtiles) character file.

As Stairdancer said throwing large rock or other stuff is good way to deal with hydras. If you fail to kill it before it get next to you, then use Bend Time to slow it and Temporal Distortion to reposition it.

This one is much better then the previous SpEE, I don't use hexes instead of earth magic this time :D stone arrow is main killing dudes tool now Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup version 0.21.1 (webtiles) character file.

Thanks Sprucery. When novice players ask for advice, most people will say don't train two weapon skills or don't train two magic schools at the same time. And gnoll is just opposite of that. That was my thought. I think by skill they mean player skill, not that choosing character skills is a major d...

You also mention blade-hands, but ofc there is no guarantee of getting that early game. If you start as an Transmuter you will have Blade Hands in the Book of Changes. With Chei you can have it online just before the Lair. Without Chei, you should put more exp into the trasmutations and pick Int st...

so it is third game but first win in 0.21, you meant that?

Still, I totally agree with that. DD of Chei seems awesome. DD of Chei is pain in the ass until you find an vamp weapon. Heres my DDNe^Chei , looks like I've found vamp hand axe early in the game: Action | 1- 3 | 4- 6 | 7- 9 | 10-12 | 13-15 | 16-18 | 19-21 | 22-24 | 25-27 || total -----------------...

One interesting and new thing I decided to do on the VSMo was nature's ally 3 banner: Get the golden rune after picking up the orb before entering tomb for the first time. With Cheibriados. This may have been a foolish mistake, and there were definitely a few times I got critically injured, but I d...

and invisible enemies will exploit your slowness. Which invis monsters early game? Unseen horrors? You can kill those with just one slouch. My playstyle for some transmuters is heavy armour+blade hands (good def+strong attack, with Chei you can cast BH in heavy armour) because you are not guarantee...

Code:: +18 gold dragon scales of Cheibriados's Reproof {+Blink rElec rPois rF+ rC+ Int-2 Dex+5}

on this one

Olgreb's vault

the clustering illusion

theres better (faster) way to kill char: ctrl+q

with this char my routine would be to clear V:5 then change to TSO, clear Crypt (with Invo training) then Pan and Abyss, after that Hell, and finally Zot

yeah nice armour that scale mail, he didn't have it yesterday true low str for plate :( as Bloax would say: this char would be stronger with Chei ;) Here's a dump: http://crawl.berotato.org/crawl/morgue/ddubois/ddubois.txt turn off dodging, it does nothing for you atm, you need higher Dex and some a...

identify those scrolls
I would wear that +11 plate armour and forget about spells for sometime

(if I found that armour before Oka altar I would pick Chei too

)

My recent HEFE, and to a lesser extent my previous DDNe, were casting at <5% in much heavier armors than I had ever thought possible before. So now my eyes are opened to much greater possibilities for hybrid builds than I'd considered before. The two sorts of questions that this introduces me to ar...

MainiacJoe wrote:As I understand it, STR and wizardry are going to be the most important factors

I think you should include INT, armour skill, spellcasting and spell school too

I don't think this combo can work without lichform for post-game on my FoTm^Chei I mostly did use statue form for extended: Action | 1- 3 | 4- 6 | 7- 9 | 10-12 | 13-15 | 16-18 | 19-21 | 22-24 | 25-27 || total -------------------------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+...

theres no such rule, they usually quit when it is yet another death about to happen (mostly in the early game)

even if you explore whole floors just manually you will get better turns count then with auto-exploration

and if you hit it with sharp weapon then it will split into two orbs

if your radius was smaller then the Schwarzschild radius then the orb would hit you

when Im depressed I like long walks through psychedelic Abyss landscapes

NaAE:

Code:: 2825 | D:4 | Identified the +13 plate armour of the Quahog {rN+} (You found it on level 4 of the Dungeon) 2927 | Temple | Fell from the grace of Ashenzari 2927 | Temple | Became a worshipper of Cheibriados the Contemplative

And I won that game

I know what I would do if I find OCPA on D:6, I would go Chei and use that armour (and get some better weapon then the +3 spear (can't do fsim now but think that all those 3 daggers you have are better then the spear))

whatever you decide, get 3 points into the shields for buckler

If there is a far away torment capable thing and you move once you can take alot of damage even with rN+++ and statue extra torment resistance if they torment 3 times and this happens often enough. One of the great things about Chei is you can do most anything. If you have portal projectile and a t...

Generally when I do play Chei, and I have won twice with Chei, I want to be very very tough AND have an excellent ranged option Excellent ranged option is not needed that much(but it is ok to have) He literally didn't move he just shot things with a frigging tank cannon and if they got close he che...

For transmuters (and *EVERY* characters except assassins/enchanters/mages), STR is always best option to give stat points on. for transmuters Im taking Int on lvlups, until I find Chei, after that it doesn't matter what you will take, but still I continue to take Int, mixed with Str depending on sp...

Just to congratulate my team for winning the #1.

And to thank Charly for inviting me tho Im not so good player.
Managed to get Nature's Ally III banner for the first time, and was trying to get Ascetic III but with no luck (also managed to lost characters with 15 and 13 runes).

neverEnough wrote:uh, i wasn't sure a pain simple axe (no necro books around) was the good one to spend early game efforts.

thats why UC is better, you don't have to worry about different weapon types, brands, you don't need to find good weapon to start training it

lava pit (in Shoals)

I did it for Vow of Courage III banner (get six runes before entering the Depths)

yeah , did read that rule, but I thought that I got full piety at some moment

I won one game with Okawaru but he is not listed in my stats, why?

stoneychips wrote:I searched the rules page but didn't see anywhere it referred to that specific abbreviation.

it is in clan points section
N clan points per ghost kill after dying, where N is the dying character's XL minus 5. (No points are awarded if the dying character is XL 5 or lower.)

Code:: cursed +0 whip "Muggi" {protect, Str-2 Dex+6}

think this is the first time that I see protect whip

you should play console, it is same in offline and online mode, also it is less complicated then tiles (theres no those robust menus, mouse control, etc)
both online and offline tiles are by-product of console version

yeah sometimes that can be funny and relaxing

but " ridiculous expense of time and knowledge" sounds like exaggerating

for me it was really annoying to use distortion weapon in the Shoals

this is misleading and would only confuse new players

oh, so then instead of monster panel add monster XP value next to threat level function, so new players can calculate it for every monster in the LOS;
or you are suggesting new threat level function ?

information that some monster is giving more xp then another one isn't to help new players that much
(e.g. Ijyb gives more xp then an adder, but adder is more dangerous)
