11) You can use controlled teleport on unique pan levels 12) Cure mutation is ultra rare, however negative mutations ARE NOT. 13) You can switch to zin if you are a follower of TSO for his "Cure all mutations" ability and safely switch back. 14) In pandemonium, every bit of HP counts, don'...

In case you're missing the most basic information, Sprint is a type of crawl where the map is predefined, the game is shorter, and enemies give more experience and piety so you gain new levels faster. There are a number of different predefined maps to choose from. To wit: You have a choice of maps:...

Could someone explain to me what this "||||||||||||||||||||||||||" stuff is describing when it comes to sprints?

I just ran a gargoryle monk of Cheibriados all the way through The vaults and got hit for half my HP from a single rock hurled by a cyclops on D:19(ended up with 0 HP, damn you RNG..). The way I was going, I would have won if not for that unlucky shot. This was all on my first try, I didn't find any...

extended endgame is MUCH easier said than done Extended will probably kill you a few times. There are tricks to most of it. The Hells in particular are reliably really dangerous to me; the threats are less predictable than in, say, Tomb. In most of extended, the situation can go from "I am cru...

At the same time, Cerebov can kill 3 tier 1 demons without breaking a sweat if he decides to.

Correction: FIRE STORM can kill 3 tier one demons.

My first 15 rune victory was a MfGl. I started off worshipping Oku, and got The Scythe of Curses(this completely broke the dungeon, I pretty much never let go of tab) before D:15. I eventually made the switch to Cheibriados. I figured that if I am going to be slow, I might as well be REALLY slow. I ...

So the question is for a caster build worshipping Sif Muna, which is generally better? Have a look at the top scores if you like. The top five scores are either Su or Wz/Ne branching into summonings. That's because summoning was heavily overpowered until 0.11. If you look at the followings scores, ...

Haste is overpowered, because it lets you attack 1.5 times more in a turn... It should be at least nerfed to x1.25-1.33. And I think it must and will happen at some point. And? Speed brands DOUBLE your attacks each turn, giving nearly the same effect(except it can stack!) as haste without contamina...

Tengus were actually my first succesful FE run, but I haven't used them in forever! XD

My friend, you just achieved a whole new level of geek. I like that.

The thing I don't really understand why Skalds don't have haste in their spellbook. Its a spellbook based on charms, thats like having FE's start without fireball, or EE's starting without LRD. haste on a starting spellbook holy fuck what are you even on? Probably because Haste is overpowered as he...

I'm afraid I don't really understand what you mean? Usually, people who start as a hunter tend to pickup some melee skills as well and simply use their ranged weapons as backup(or in case of emergency). I personally prefer to use ranged weapons 24/7 the moment that becomes doable, but different peop...

Thanked

I know this might be a little off topic, but where exactly are people downloading version 0.13? I have looked all over and still couldn't find it.

Breaking apart slime creatures
Breaking free of constriction
Forcing shapeshifters to change to something less dangerous

I actually didn't know about any of those things, ill have to take note of that, thank you.

After reading the most of this thread, it seems like there is one big misconception: One race is better than the other. Now, its not doubt that DE's are the "easiest" casters to start out with, but that doesn't make them "better" than Dr's or Mu's. But we all need to keep in mind...

I contemplated mentioning it, but since i was talking about using cheibriados as a CASTER, you would usually be better off staying at range and using spells like Repel/Deflect missile(or a shield of reflection) to help tank the damage(since casters are generally ranged attackers as well). Ranged th...

Sometimes a new member of the tavern comes up and posts stuff (tips, a thorough guide on some build, etc), and even though he/she's still new (judging from his/her post counts), I can tell almost immediately that he/she's not a n00b at all and might actually be a pro crawl player in disguise. This ...

At first 15 Int is quite a lot, but later you find a lot of enhancers and +Int items. So I'm not so sure it's worth sacrificing your movement speed and haste. Not sure at all... Yes, with a good set of spells and skills you can win with any god and stuff, but I'm not sure I'd recommend it. I was ac...

The thing I don't really understand why Skalds don't have haste in their spellbook. Its a spellbook based on charms, thats like having FE's start without fireball, or EE's starting without LRD.

The thing I like the most about this is the idea of using it like a permanent ice form(which is a spell I really like). But I see what other people mean when they say its too gimmicky.

Considering you'd still have to use a scythe to do it, probably not a balance issue

Tackling Extended Endgame: Things I Wish People Would Have Told me As the title would suggest, we post things we wish we knew about extended end game that would have prevented YASD. Here is my list: 1) 3 tier 1 demons can kill Cerebov 2) Torment exists. 3) Borgnjors revivication is a very very good ...

If you are looking for easy and cookie cutter, Lichform+summon dragons+staff of channeling+Crystal ball is pretty difficult to NOT win with. Getting there is a different story, however. But if you are looking for a hybrid, a VpEn of Nemelex is probably the "easiest" for inexperienced playe...

If you are Playing DE, then probably Vehumet, if you are playing something like a mummy or a vampire, then probably Sif or Nemelex(yes, pure summoning and wonders decks work... Well, wonders!). Cheibriados is also a good option depending on what class you are playing, but generally DE are better sui...

I play Cheibriados more than I play just about any other god(even TSO). I consider him easily the best god in the game next to Nemelex. But much like Nemelex, he is very difficult to get used to. The 2 main issues with Cheibriados are his issue with ranged threats, and more importantly, the fact tha...

I have found some pretty crazy drops myself. I one time found 2 rings of regeneration as a MuWz, a +5 Crystal Plate Armour of Sang {+blink rElec rC+ MR} as a minotaur berzerker, and most notably, a Scythe Of Curses on floor 8 of the lair as a Merfolk Gladiator(this was my first 15 runer victory, I w...
