I believe you will find it is spelled 'colourful'.

Almost all of my gaming takes place after the kids have gone to sleep. This is my primary problem: The gf refuses to go to bed without me, even though I generally require less sleep than she does. Sometimes it happens, but rarely. In any case this is probably all far too much personal info/ranting,...

Can drink ambrosia now. Ambrosia (and the Elixir card, as of whichever version it changed in) don't increase your regen rate, they just heal you for a set amount each turn. Isn't that basically the same thing though? Aside from the fact that regeneration rate is modified by slow healing / sickness.

You can set default skill mode to manual in your rcfile.

change sandblast, lrd, and shatter to transmutation/earth nerf shatter by making it damage you if you're in ice form, statue form, or blade hands give LRD a chance to instantly kill skeletal monsters allow LRD to be used on all monsters plus mechanical traps make shatter's range depend on your eart...

Humans are uniquely able to grow a second set of teeth. This means that only humans can eat bread rations that are over 200 000 turns old.

I'd definitely rank newestnem at A for the first category, or maybe even S, but I understand that some people just don't like the gameplay. I don't really do extended much, but I'm surprised that Veh isn't in S, at least given how popular it seems to be. Would have expected Lugonu at A there too, r...

Whoever said that obviously didn't know about Statue Form.

Often when using Shock / Lightning bolt you want to aim at a wall square behind a monster so that the beam hits it twice. However, you have to manually move the target each time since autotarget always moves it to nearest monster if you aim at a square without monster. I suggest that autotarget shou...

Technically you are eating post-processed meat slurry (barring hydra form, that is).

With most gods it costs enough piety to be really bad, but yeah. IMO not regenerating stats is terrible gameplay right now though (ever tried playing DD?) because of the things stat drain typically comes from. Putting max MP drain on monsters is basically like putting rot, item destruction, permane...

Since mummies can't drink potions of restore abilities, their main way to restore lost stats is to use their self-restoration which costs permanent MP or wait. However the lack of food clock means that unless the situation is dangerous or the mummy is in pan/abyss, the optimal way to play is to go m...

Felids are pretty annoying to play with their extremely low hp and evasion based defenses. Finding the Amulet of Vitality on my FeCK made the game much more bearable (and Xom gave robust 3 in the end, which was also nice).

That's a weird way to be entangled.

and DE annihilators have Blink so they can chase you... I'm not sure, but I think they can only blink if you're in LOS. What I meant is that they can blink close to you, and then double-LCS ! But I realize that wasn't really clear ! For situations like these you should always carry a scroll of sile...

The game was won until he went out of his way to lose it.

The Enchantress is also magic immune, so fear is useless against her.

I think it was KoboldLord who argued to me convincingly that the term "caster" is useful in Crawl. KoboldLord, is this thread changing your mind? I know it's serving as an effective counter-argument for me. The question is not directed at me but I wonder what do you mean? Book backgrounds...

Thanks for the help guys, tried it on CAO yesterday and it worked a treat.

Too bad I already have a mindelay bardiche.

I had a HEAK drown in Swamp because I didn't bother to drink another potion of flight. I was next to shallow water so I thought I'd scramble away. Turns out I didn't.

Don't let the door mimic hit you on the way out! No wait, they won't do that because mimics were RUINED FOREVER.

The +4 leather armour of Submission {rF+ rC++ rN+ MR++ Slay+4 Curse}.

I'd say that's a bargain for 168 gold.

How come you chose those spells? Invisibility and flight seem fairly useless and I don't see much reason having all four of Glaciate/Shatter/Tornado/Fire Storm. What about DDoor, LCS, Disjunction, Borgnjor's or Aura of Abjuration? Maybe even darkness or discord.

You really, really should go to Lair instead! (Type 'yes' to continue)

Putting aside the issue whether wand of flame is useless or not (it's not), it's weird to not consider only flame. Wand of frost does exactly the same damage and there are more early monsters with cold resistance than fire resistance. Wand of magic darts does less damage and never missing is mostly ...

Instead of spending 14 skill levels you are never going to on Staves, you could instead put them in Summoning and have get some dudes to block line of fire.

I also had good experiences with spellforged servitor recently. In similar conditions to the OP (lowest level conjuration was L6), casting one and hasting it paid for itself in damage and also allowed me a fair amount of cover when I overspent my mana pool, even on Zot:5 in the orb chamber.
