Odd things sighted in dungeon.

[mageykun]

I've got a robe of the archmagi on a berserker right now. Because it's +3 and currently the best robe available.

GHOST IN THE SHELL

Overkill much, Crawl?

And yes, that character did die, surprisingly.

The hell's that? ROFL

[jejorda2]

I killed Psyche yesterday and there was no dagger with her corpse.

[mageykun]

Terrible sight: I have a trove asking for a manual of fighting. Fighting. How terrible is that?

I also just found a Xom altar vault I'd never seen before filled with Kobolds. One of them left a quickblade of chaos. I know it's suicide, but that's so hilariously awesome I'm tempted to wield it anyways.

[Scalding Steam]

...That's surely a hell lot of doors.

[jejorda2]

I walked down the stairs to a new level and saw a water moccasin (fleeing). It was severely wounded. I can't find what hit it. How could it wander into a blade trap before the level is generated?

[FlyingPants]

Jenx has captured a monster spawning. This is how they appear on levels - by popping out of thin air. Usually they do it when you're not around. I saw a snake do this a couple months ago but didn't screenshot it.

I had an 8 headed hydra walk down a stair right in front of me. So they can spawn that way too.

[TwilightPhoenix]

...That's surely a hell lot of doors.

That's just the preview of the new Hell branch Ostium, the door hell!



Meanwhile, a rat somehow managed to let trees grow around it.

[hxy]

Found the exit to a labyrinth.
Looked around a bit, noticed that there were three doors.
Since I'm playing a spellcaster, I don't want to open the door to be nose-to-nose with the minotaur, so I stand to one side and shout (tt) to try to get it out...

You shout for attention! You hear a bellow!

..wait... no minotaur

I looked again, one door was open, and the minotaur was nowhere to be found.
I decided to go nearer... and found that there was a teleport trap right outside the open door.
The minotaur must have been teleported away

[joellercoaster]

Hahaha, I've seen that one! Unfortunately I found the trap first, the hard way, but then got to watch as the minotaur found it too

[mageykun]

Oh my Gods, I just found a bee room in Gehenna, the fire Hell.

I am seriously laughing my ass off here. Those bugs are not in a friendly environment.

[christhawk]

This is... easy to get to! Only 73 gp, but for D1...



EDIT: I go down a floor and find the Famous Walled-Off Forest Fire Pit.




No, you MAY NOT barbecue here! How many times do I have to tell you kids that? I'm putting up a glass block wall!

[Zicher]

Even better, that's enough plants to get Fighting started.

[TwilightPhoenix]

I didn't think to take this until after I used Apportation, but the Abyssal Rune and an exit to the Abyss spawned within sight of each other! I saw the exit first and almost didn't see the rune, which would have made me leave without it. For reference, is was in the upper-right just above the water.

[szanth]

He's a berserker, I don't think that's gonna be an issue. :p

[heimdall]

teleport.....and KABOOOOM!

[FlyingPants]

That must be some sort of secret level...

[Sprinter]

TOP Secrit warlords lvl

[Nim]

Ijyb and Psyche spawning behind translucent glass on D:1 ? Bug or feature ?

[Kate]

It's a (really weird) entry vault. Not quite sure why.

[Megabass]

It's a (really weird) entry vault. Not quite sure why.

Really weird and you're not sure why in that there aren't normally uniques in there, or really weird and you're not sure why it exists, or really weird and you're not sure why it's wierd, or really wok you know what I could go on forever like this, so I'ma go ahead and shut up.

Still, further explanation might not be remiss.

[joellercoaster]

Microbats!

[joellercoaster]

Fruity bats!
Gigabat!

PHASE BATS!

This is the best day ever.

[Nim]

So how likely is this occuring again ?

[mageykun]

It's kind of a lame start. All it does it remove 2 uniques from the game before you encounter any. :/

[Scalding Steam]

The ecumenical temple is corrupted...

...So the gods decided to migrate to the Abyss!

Look, even Beogh is here! Although I can't seem to find an altar of Jiyva.

[Denniz]

Had a ghost spawn in strange place. Why didn't it just die?

[frankhovis]

So I bumped into a number of humanoid monsters using identical equipment on D:2 - they each wore a robe and carryied a scythe. Sigmund impersonators!

[Grimm]

hahah his "look" is becoming fashionable down there

soon he will release an album

[Grimm]

I just had TWO altars of Okawaru generate on D 3.

[Katak]

I walked down the stairs to a new level and saw a water moccasin (fleeing). It was severely wounded. I can't find what hit it. How could it wander into a blade trap before the level is generated?

If it was wounded when it fell through a shaft, it would be in the same condition when you arrived on the level it got shafted to.

For example, I had a fleeing worm with sticky flame on it fall through a shaft. 3 dungeon levels later, I came down the stairs to see the worm onscreen instantly burn to cinders.

[Scalding Steam]

Worst trove ever.
(For your information, that trove was quite literally empty when I enter it. I even used cTele to get to the other side of glass wall, only to find it's empty too. Good thing the entry portal "just" asked for a +4 dragon armour...)

[FlyingPants]

There are hidden doors for each of those rock squares. Loot is inside.

[Tiber]

At that point, I would've copied the save file, opened up wizard mode, and revealed the level, just to be sure.

Also, why are you carrying that many items going into a trove? Dump some items outside so you have room to pick everything up (you know, assuming items actually appear).

[XuaXua]

Unusual level layout:



Note minimap. One giant square in the middle. One oklob in the lower right corner. Haven't found a mapping scroll or dig/disint want yet but when I do I'll check for internal chambers.

Whenever I get that map, I've never found internal chambers.

[XuaXua]

Ah yeah, it was on the opposite wall of the temple. Also the temple itself is one I don't think I've seen before, with a giant pool in the middle, surrounded by glass, and lots of angry sea monsters.

I hate that one for stash-making because you get stopped from moving every. single. time.

[XuaXua]

Uuuuh....well I guess this explains why there are no baby ogres in the dungeon.

It has probably stepped on a teletrap.

That doesnt explain why it is still sleeping on screenshot

He's not sleeping; that's a question mark. He's confused/bewildered/

[XuaXua]

Had a ghost spawn in strange place. Why didn't it just die?

Ghosts levitate.

[XuaXua]

The hell's that? ROFL

Probably has telepathy mutation.

[Scalding Steam]

There are hidden doors for each of those rock squares. Loot is inside.

Aah, damn it! I just find they are "unnaturally hard" and thought it would be impossible to get in. Silly me.

At that point, I would've copied the save file, opened up wizard mode, and revealed the level, just to be sure.

Thanks for that tip. I will bear that in mind next time!

[smock]

I just found 4 staircases back to the Lair from the Snake Pit. I had thought there were always three.

[mageykun]

So I come down a set of stairs. I find a secret door! I open it. I find a few more! So I keep going, merely opening secret doors (the wall's beginning to look like Swiss cheese at this point) thinking that this is kind of fun... when the crowd of doors ends in a room.

Filled with elephants. And dire elephants. And one hellephant, who promptly blinked behind me to block escape.

Hats off to whoever came up with that one. Nasty. I barely made it out alive!

[galehar]

I just found 4 staircases back to the Lair from the Snake Pit. I had thought there were always three.

Maybe it's a consequence of this change.

If so, there might be a minor bug in the commit. Snake 1 was just one big room. I'll submit it to Mantis.

[ghend]

Just ran into that orcish sigmund cult. I lol'd.

[jejorda2]

I saw a D1 vault with orbs of fire, tentacled monstrosities, Shadow Dragons, and Ice Dragons. Harmless behind glass. I wish I had been an Earth caster so I could come back and LRD them for free experience.

It's also very fun when Rapid Destruction accidentally destroys the section of wall that you're targeting to kill them.

[mageykun]

I just found a deep troll on d:5 with my FeWa. o_o

I spent so long clearing the dang gnoll village I tripped the OOD scumming retaliation! Never had that happen before.

...there's deep water on this level. I'm gonna lure it over there and drown it. Then get the hell off this level before worse appears.

Edit: THERE WAS A WHOLE PACK OF THEM. I mephed them all, leveled up, and now have over 3k xp to burn.

[Sprinter]

Found a friendly fish deep in dungeon no idea why its not hostile dont even have charms skill
