Fresh trunk changes, coming your way. Look out!<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>New spell: Irradiate (L5 Conj\/Tmut). Blasts adjacent foes with pure magical radiation, doing heavy damage and frequently malmutating the unfortunate victims. Also, contaminates the caster; 2-4 casts of the spell will put you into yellow (dangerous) contamination. Found in the Book of Transfigurations and the Book of Alchemy.<\/li>\n<li>Monster malmutations are now temporary, but more significant. Good news for Beoghites&#8230;?<\/li>\n<li>Ice Form has been moved from the Book of Transfigurations to the Book of Ice.<\/li>\n<li>Ice, Dragon, Tree, and Fungus forms no longer meld octopode rings.<\/li>\n<li>Instead of starting with a level 1 spell memorized, wanderers get a randart spellbook with a couple of low-level spells in it.<\/li>\n<li>Wanderers can start with an elemental evoker or a box of beasts in place of a wand.<\/li>\n<li>Jump attack (and the boots of jumping) are no more.<\/li>\n<li>Magic immunity no longer confers confusion immunity to monsters.<\/li>\n<li>Frederick has realized his true potential; he is now a Demigod. Grovel at his boots, pitiful god-havers!<\/li>\n<li>Player ghosts now have their weapon brands displayed. Never again will you have to hunt down morgue files to check if that AK ghost has a distortion weapon!<\/li>\n<li>Ghosts of characters that died while paralyzed no longer have 0 EV.<\/li>\n<li>Corrosion resistance can now appear on randart armour.<\/li>\n<li>Cloaks of darkness have been renamed to cloaks of invisibility.<\/li>\n<li>Gold dragon armour has been reduced from 25 to 23 EVP, the same as crystal plate.<\/li>\n<li>Unarmed combat delay penalties from armour have been substantially de-randomized; they&#8217;re now consistently around the average of the old values.<\/li>\n<li>Monsters with drowning attacks (water nymphs, drowned souls, etc) can no longer kill players who are in Death&#8217;s Door. (However, falling into deep water still can.)<\/li>\n<li>Chain Lightning can no longer arc out of LOS.<\/li>\n<li>&#8216;Monster spells&#8217; (e.g. Ghostly Fireball) can now be displayed in the spell finder. (?\/S)<\/li>\n<li>New options for tiles players: tile_weapon_offsets and tile_shield_offsets, allowing players using custom tiles (with tile_player_tile) to precisely adjust the placement of their equipment.<\/li>\n<li>New tiles for double and triple swords, among other things.<\/li>\n<li>Players can no longer wear the Amulet of Vitality on their tentacles.<\/li>\n<li>Major balance change: Abandon God is now available even when the player is silenced.<\/li>\n<li>Octopode players are now properly informed when their tentacles begin to smoulder.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Happy crawling!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi crawlers!
