Odd things sighted in dungeon.

[JeffQyzt]

^ Note the MUT+ attribute - maybe one of the orcs mutated into a dragon

[Stormfox]

It mutated itself -- it started life as a dragon slaying brand and got morphed.

+0 +9 ring of slaying (found on D3 identified on D4.png (251.08 KiB) Viewed 11261 times

I thought slaying rings could only go as high as +8 on each stat.

I thought slaying rings could only go as high as +8 on each stat.

I've seen a -1/+12 Ring of Slaying once, I think. Might be remembering it wrong though.

[o_O]

I heard that as part of the slaying nerf, the maximum slaying numbers were increased to +9/+0 or +0,+9

[TehDruid]

Poor Ghoul died to overconfidence (incident involving a hill giant) shortly after. Well, after the slaying nerf the ring pretty much sucks anyway.

[TwilightPhoenix]

Crawl pities the fool.




This one might not be instantly clear, but a plant spawned on a trap.

[nicolae]

Crawl pities the fool.

The whole phrase is "stay silent and be thought a fool, or open your mouth and remove all doubt".

[Grimm]

More commonly "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt." It is a modification of sentiments expressed in the book of Proverbs, for example Proverbs 17:28: "Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding.

[Jabberwocky]

Do you happen to be a follower of Fedhas Madash?

[Pteriforever]

Nope.

[Tiber]

Apparently, confusion doesn't just cause a creature to attack itself, it can cause it to constrict itself. I wanted to see if it would remain constricted even after the confusion wore off, but it constricted itself to death before then.

P.S. Confusing Touch is awesome, and confusing the monster holding you is a great way to get out of constriction.

[TehDruid]

Ah yeah, I always learn confusing touch on non Troglodyte Trolls of mine.

Here's something I see for the first time. (No mimics as you can see I stepped over both staircases)

There were no Orcs near the stairs, only a pack of yaks.

Dungeon zoning regulations have been loosening up.

[Pteriforever]

[eharper256]

Haven't Giant Frogs have been removed in 0.10?
EDIT: I was going say !WTF! at this; from my first 0.10 game. But then I realised it was Giant Toads, and not Giant Frogs that have been removed. Silly Me. Oh well.

[Zicher]

See? You should have followed his advice, he would not have to kill you .

[TwilightPhoenix]

[One-Eyed Jack]

I remember I was once levitating over a shaft and got a Nemelex gift. It fell through, naturally.

[SinCosTan]

Most questionable D:9 I've seen.

[Grimm]

That's a new standard layout. It shows up pretty frequently.

[nilsyn]

A pleasant little beach I came across during my explorations.

[eharper256]

Somewhat dodgy downstairs placement going on in Snake here:

How is the Lava not flowing down the stairs?

[Grimm]

There's a little raised lip around the top of stairwells. It's what prevents undead - they can't raise their feet high enough - and lava and water from coming down the stairs.

[Jabberwocky]

Most questionable D:9 I've seen.

That's some high quality marble for a dungeon.

[Confidence Interval]

Most questionable D:9 I've seen.

That's some high quality marble for a dungeon.

I can't decide if that's Light Green A or Light Green B. What do you think?

Definitely light green B with patches of dark green B.

[Grimm]

That's the best Crawl text I've ever seen.

[Jabberwocky]

How did you get that?

[nicolae]

A pleasant little beach I came across during my explorations.

yesssssssssss I made that one!

If it shows up before D:6 there's no blood or corpses or sharks, it's just a little place to chill.

[Pteriforever]

How did you get that?

One of my allies got hit by a porcupine I beleive.

OK, this is one thing that console players will _never_ fully enjoy

[Zicher]

That vault works fine in console...

Sure it _works_ fine per se in console. It's the graphical image that made me laugh, and I, for one, probably would not imagine it this way in ASCII. For me, this beach is an undisputed win for tiles .

Even though I don't play console, I made sure that the vault still worked in it. IIRC the beach tiles appear as light brown in console, same as the floor in Shoals.

And because it was a shedu, it kept resurrecting its buddy.

From inside the wall.

[Pteriforever]

How does that even work?

[nicolae]

How does that even work?

It's like when your computer monitor is displaying all black but it's still on.

[Happy Corner]

It's obviously some kind of blacklite potion.

[Pteriforever]

Meanwhile, on Orc:1:



Then, on Orc:2:



Orc:3, on the other hand, was less of a pushover:

[Grimm]

I've never seen Sig outside of D.

[Grimm]

I came across a shop that was already abandoned. Is this a new thing? Is there a reason for it? I can't think of one.

[jejorda2]

I understand there are plans to create unique shops in vaults (set inventories, maybe?) and the abandoned shop is a test case for the code.

[Grimm]

Also, how do you have 10 unidentified scrolls of the same type...

Here's something peculiar. A Beogh altar nowhere near the Orc entrance.
