Since no one has won the last combo in a while, I'm just going to name a new one arbitrarily and try to restart it!

Combo: TrFE
Special rule: You may not train unarmed combat. Anything else goes.

Code:: V - the amulet of the Sunfish (around neck) {rMut +Rage +Inv rElec rF+ rC+ rN+ MR+ Stlth+}.

This is probably the best amulet I've ever seen.
E: Amulet of the alchemist.

I'm amazed we were able to get 50% of the combos finished in 4 months!

Just keep running and be liberal with teleportation. Should hopefully be a breeze with a stealthy character like this.

Permanent stacking chaos brand sounds like a good starting point. That would be a lot of crazy fun.

It's dead now after Xom banishment.

Version 0.14, D5, TrCK:

Code:: Xom grants you an implement of some kind. Something appears at your feet. You now have 1326 gold pieces (gained 1080).

Trog form: Kill them all.

Make forms toggleable, but give a lot of contamination or draining whenever you change form. Also make contamination go away with experience gain to avoid players being able to rest it off.

Comborobin.

You only get the god title if your invocations is the highest skill, and training something to 27 locks the title to that skill. (Unless you use knowledge transfer, apparently).

Tis could be the seed idea for a race which changes its aptitudes/innate mutations based on what god it worships. EG angel when worshipping good gods, profane servitor when worshipping evil gods, some other forms when worshipping neutral or chaos gods.

Hmm, we could do a 15 rune run with each all races and classes...become a 15 rune greaterplayer.

Heh, no way! We're not opening that can of worms

Any ideas for other fun side projects for comborobin?

Go chei and use temporal distortion when the orb is about to hit you.

The point I was trying to make is that there are only about five or six titles that involve completely useless skills/god switching, with 300+ combos left. There are also sure to be more high level duplicate characters as we get to higher % completed. So a good use for the duplicates is taking risks...

I really like the first idea, mainly because it would eliminate so much tabbing.

We should probably save the harder titles involving training literally useless skills and god wrath for duplicates.

But mom, the other ogres all have giant clubs.

I just splatted my MuGl that was going for the Plutocrat title...a little too careless in tomb.

Torpor slug? He grew too big for his shell over the years of eating adventurers.

Also of note, with that win 40% of the combos are completed.

There definitely is a way to do it (surprises me on comborobin occasionally when using other peoples' rc files).

Play comborobin for a good chance of spectators. Added benefit is that you get to be anonymous yourself!

Huh, it's probably because of playing comborobin so much...but I don't get attached to characters at all either. Have splatted my share as well.

For this character...I think you could have risked converting back to vehumet and suffering through Trog wrath.

Yeah, people dying from lack of experience/bad play is fine and expected, to a point. That can be mitigated in part by setting up your character really well so that it's hard for people to kill. (Obviously that won't always help, but so far I have seen many of the characters that I've started go on ...

Summoning lesser/greater demons using Makhleb's invocations has a separate failure chance and chance for a hostile summon. In order to know the chance of summoning a hostile demon, you need to know this formula: (4/(20 + 3*Invocations), whereas the failure chance is displayed right there in the abil...

The "Titles" spreadsheet looks really great now! Many thanks to whoever improved it.

It's alright, qw is pretty limited in the combos it can do anyway.

Maybe we can do a grand finale like that for the last 10 (or whatever) combos.

Also of note, that OpFE was part of a 5-win streak on comborobin.

neqoxec and ynoxinul are amazing names!

IMO it should be impossible to starve to death with food in the inventory; if your last action would kill you due to starvation, it should instead become an automatic "eat smallest bit of food in inventory" action.

Exactly 1/3 complete.

Last time I played a Wr was a DDWr in depths started by qw.

Should have af_hunger

Maybe you'll get better results with a smaller dildo

I like early game more myself - I like crafting a character that I know can win. After that it's not as interesting because I feel like I've already won and the only way I can die is by carelessness. So it's pretty nice when someone wins a character I've set up.

That's fine..which runes are you going to get?

Done! For the next one: DrBe. You need to abandon trog permanently before you can enter lair. The key here is going to be not to enter lair until you're xl25. Trog wrath is virtually impossible to survive at a low XL. If it turns into depths before lair, then so be it! (If people try this and think...

Just curious, do people prefer to do early game or late game?

Deep water is the scariest thing about lom lobon.

I'm fine with this if there's also a change where starvation just slows you down (like stat-zero) and doesn't kill or paralyze you.

Sounds like apocalypse.

Cool, thanks! I love my melee dudes but this guy has also been fun.
