Died to double-move hydra after failing a 6% miscast rate on swiftness, then a scroll of fear failure. I swear these nonsense deaths only happen during CSDC.

Number of thanks >= number of posts is some straight-up thanks min-maxing bullshit.

Look who's talking, tryhard.

I'd like to rescind a previous statement: Just because you have seen a thing does not mean that it has been seen. That would be silly.

The true pleasure of the snozzcumber is the ability to grasp its oily, wart-encrusted flesh firmly between your palms as you ascend to the surface with the orb. I will not accept this outrage.

If you see them, they have been seen.

Yes; needing to stop in the middle of a fight to eat in order to not starve to death is a horrible weakness that is brought on by bad spell school apts and fast metabolism and any spellcasting at all.

apparently throwing being really good was a false alert and now jellies eat 16 stones at 20 str/6 fighting/8 throwing which isn't very nice as you might imagine, seeing as jellies have 12-21 hp and 0 AC and yet 5 of those stones did no damage (and that would be at least 1,09 damage and 1,9 damage a...

this is so racist.

Yeah but whos dick is bigger

I think something like a "signature" spell or weapon that gives bonuses could be cool as a god effect, but otherwise this overlaps pretty heavily with the increase of spellpower as you train and the eventual acquirement of better spells. It would also be really complicated to give each spe...

I'll play a lot of Ogres in the next days to see whether I'll keep feeling the same about them. The problem is you need a heavy dragon armour early on, since the early game is the hardest part of the game -assuming you're not going the spellcasting route. And to be honest, finding and using fire/ic...

It is unfortunate that so many of the games played as Trolls and Ogres end up using the same playstyle of Unarmed and M&F respectively, but I don't see that as much of a problem. Not all races need to have flat aptitudes, and some specificity can make certain races more appealing or challenging ...

Considering it's fan nickname is Maxwell's Coffin, I'd say yes, it is a trap for anyone that is not a Formicid of Trog. I do not recommend wearing it.

In terms of being less eye-gougingly awful than the alternatives, I'd say AM is a great start for a Mummy of Cheibriados and my only Mu^Chei win. The ranged weapon gives you a very powerful pre-lair, and Chei's bonuses will make the hexes in your starting book very effective at mitigating his weakne...

Then hit the letter of the (known) potion you want to toggle to Auto-pick up. For a second there...I thought you wrote Klown Potion and was all...there are Klown potions now?

If a message is misleading, even if people "figure it out eventually", it should be changed to be more clear.

The whole thing is kind of silly because komodo dragons don't cause sickness in real life. That has been recently debunked. They poison you -> http://www.popsci.com/science/article/2013-06/animal-fun-facts-does-komodo-dragon-really-kill-bacteria-filled-bite So just make them poisonous and everyone ...

I'm skeptical about storm shield's passive effect: How long would these single-tile clouds last? If you were exploring down a corridor and one appeared in front of you, would you have to stop exploring and wait for it to dissipate? I'm also worried it would encourage players to walk around until a l...

Looks like it's a 50% chance to be either a big fish or an adder, if you were curious. ############################################################################ # Cracked pipes. by co # Most of the time the player will move between the pipes through cracks, # these will be filled with rats.

Well imo the best solution for now is to just get rid of the sickness since it has basically no gameplay effect aside from annoyance. Komodo dragons are usually the second hardest speed 10 thing that is likely to generate on early lair levels (for some characters the first hardest), so unless you w...

I've been wondering for a little while how to fix komodo dragons, or whether they should just be removed. Septic sounds fairly interesting; any chance you could give me some more specifics? How much HP/HP% is "rotted" per bite, caps on rotting, etc. I wouldn't be able to tell you what wou...

Aren't Komodo dragons there mainly to introduce the Sickness mechanic to newer players? Imho they are just fine, and you usually have more than enough potions of curing in each game. The problem isn't "I have to spend my potions of curing", the problem is "I have to wait around hitti...

Dealing with komodo dragons, and more specifically their sickness-inducing bites, is a tedious endeavor that involves mashing 5 for a long time and sometimes randomly losing stats just because. There is some theoretical synergy from sickness amplifying the effects of the poison of other lair-dwellin...

Because they are a fun challenge? I don't think mummies need to be buffed because they supposedly bait players into having a bad experience.

So... Chaos Knight that never unwields their chaos weapon? I think I can give that a try.

What's the deadline for this combo?

You can set that up in your .rc file.

Watch out for player ghosts.

This is the good link

Why did you go down to Abyss:4? I thought it is generally considered unwise and unneccessary.

Because Abyss is a drag and I didn't have the patience.

http://dobrazupa.org/morgue/Cheibrodos/Cheibrodos.txt I just got absolutely demolished in abyss due to my own ignorance of game features, followed by an unfortunate enemy's side effect. I had no idea the Brainless condition remained active after restoring intelligence (as I have never been brainless...

This is the happiest day of my life.

I guess it's only fair that we get my least favorite species after a round with my favorite class.

All that's left for me is tomb and zot, but I've lost all will to play after going through Hells.

Yay, just got the tier I bonus! Dephts 2 is too tough for me though ; it has a large vault with all 3 downstairs and lots of monsters, I quit after expending much of my consumables. Maybe time to get a rune? Got the weirdest luck in this game, too : several dragon hides, but no ?EA ... I've been ha...

I just think of Okawaru as a heroism dispenser and nothing more. He's still great.

It turns out my unfortunate death was on the wrong account! Whoops! It seems my next one might go a bit better.

And then I died to staircase Jessica who hasted herself before I got a turn. No good potions.

I also had the elemental staff! Crazy.

I tried to escape with the blink mutation xom gave me, but FAILED THE SIXTEEN PERCENT CHANCE and died immediately.

This combo was 2zany4me, maybe you should have considered skipping this roll for the competition. Oh well.

JUST WHAT THE DOCTA ORDERED

I never played a CK seriosly. Can someone give me some baseline guide to not splat in the first 1k turns? (like how keep xom entertained enough and so on) I'm not extremely experienced with CKs having only two wins with them, but everything seems to work out fine if you don't waste time and translo...

Wonderful.
