Infinite Monkeys posted:Yeah I made mistakes but what the gently caress were they doing on D:11 anyway? A D:11 storm dragon must be at least 10 levels too early? 12 levels too early at minimum, to be specific. Vaults can pull monsters from something like (depth * 2) + 8 for super out of depth threats, I don't remember the specifics. A storm dragon is definitely some nasty bullshit though.

ImPureAwesome posted:Once you reach max stars, is that also the cap on piety gain? Am I just wasting Oki piety if I'm not constantly using abilities after max stars? No, there's quite a bit of wiggle room between six stars and Absolute Max Piety. You should still be using heroism all of the times though, because it is super cheap, and also great.

Internet Kraken posted:I don't get why people say this. Blades isn't dangerous at all and gives a respectable chunk of exp, which is all the more valuable now that the dungeon is smaller. Although the dungeon is smaller, there is now vastly more XP in the game then there used to be. Back when Depths was six levels deep it had more XP than the entirety of Dungeon in .13.

Brannock posted:I'm surprised you stuck with Okawaru for the endgame instead of switching to like Makhleb or TSO. I assume you wanted to keep the stacking for Haste + Finesse for maximum damage output? Haste + Finesse is the exact same as Finesse for the purposes of hitting dudes with swords. Obviously different for the purposes of Getting Out of Dodge.

I get the whole 'Midas' angle, but perhaps one of his passive bonuses should be to slow your metabolism? Don't forget you can still buy porridge potions from him on the cheap.

Colour posted:Is Dithmenos a good god for a Spriggan stabber/caster? I started a game after not playing since 0.12, where I would usually go Okawaru until I got some decent gear and felt I could deal with his wrath, then ditch for Ashenzari. I'd appreciate other god recommendations as well. Besides the ones you listed, I'd also short-list Makhleb, Kiku, and Nemelex, mostly because they all give you very good ways to killdudes aside from your Elmer Fudd impersonation.

I think mumra was spear-heading that, but he got a job soon after and has basically disappeared from crawl entirely. Brannock posted:How did you get the Bribing status while worshipping Ashenzari?

Igni isn't going to go into trunk any time soon; almost all of the devs have outstanding problems with him and the person who was spearing-heading the work has more or less dropped it entirely. Plus, there's already two new gods in trunk who still have their own issues to have worked out.
