Thanks Nemelex.


If it doesn't fit anywhere else, it belongs here. Also, come here if you just need to get hammered.

Thanks Nemelex.

I just started a game and chose to follow Nemelex. He gave me a plain deck of summonings. I stumbled onto Ijyb, and decided to draw a card...

Is this normal?

Edit: A second use summoned three centaurs, and Nemelex has since (I'm still in the same floor) given me another two plain decks of summoning.

Edit 2: Different game, I summoned this thing named a Ruqyddea, couldn't find any information about it. (Apparently it's a Pandemonium Lord.)

Re: Thanks Nemelex.

Nemelex Xobeh is really powerful and underestimated god.
The only weakness of it is inventory management, due to flood of decks in your backpack.

Abuse stack five on decks of escape. Tomb + Elixir combo is the best lifesaver in this game.

Re: Thanks Nemelex.

It happens. You have to be careful when using nem summons because they are occasionally hostile. I believe that invo training helps with this but it can still happen.

I believe it's Evocation's for Nemelex, rather than Invocations.

Not anymore! When Pakellas came and left, he took Nem's evocations and dropped them right into invos.

Re: Thanks Nemelex.

Something seems weird though. At least with old (=previous) Nem, I surely didn't get Pan lords at that stage of the game.

Re: Thanks Nemelex.

No, it's completely normal for Nemelex to be overpowered. @Sprucery: I remember getting a bone dragon at like D5-7 with oldNem, which is roughly as effective as a Panlord at that stage of the game and, as a bonus, won't harm you with any spells (because it has none!).
