I would say a felid is just as bad as a deep dwarf, it just has very limited options of viable gameplay progression.

radinms wrote:yesno wrote:why do so many dislike playing vampires? just the weird food clock? or something else?
because vampire is terrible weak. terrible stats, terrible aptitude, terrible regeneration... too many terrible. "worst" race.
for vampire
- early game: too hard. early game is one of the most difficult part in DCSS
- mid game: hard because of vampire
- late game: hard because of vampire
- extended game: worst because of vampire.Even mummy is easily to get all runes
if you want to see the detail why vampire is too weak, should see:
viewtopic.php?f=5&t=16432
and if you want to see terrible weak vampire to get all runes, should see the morgue:

-1 fighting isn't that great, but it hurts your mid/late game but not really your early game, which is the hardest part of the game anyway.

He used +9 demon blade(flame) and 19.3 LB skill. Even that, very very weak and too many trouble.
Maybe you say "pure stabber is weak in extended".
it is right, but I want to say "both pure stabber Vp and LB Vp are weak and terrible".
Anyway, Vp is a weak race.
Strong Vp is Statue Vp, only.
And you say Vp should go kiku?
Yeah, it is right, because kiku is a top-tier god in current DCSS except trog, Chei.
"Vp in kiku is strong", it is right, because "anything of kiku is strong".
My Opinion is: Vp is a terrible weak race, so worshiping kiku is optimal.
And you say mummy is one of the strongest species in extended game??
If you say ghoul, I agree.
Mummy in extended game is not strong.
no potion, bad skill even pan, no holy weapon... too many terrible!
But it is easier than Vp, sure.
