Abyss remains the one rune in 15 rune games I hate the most (Tomb isn't hate, just fear)

Does the rune any spawn more aggressively than it does on A:5? Like, is there a reason to dive to A:20 other than bragging rights? I just normally trolled around A:3 unless I was feeling swole and miiiiight try deeper if I was getting bored (pre-infinite depth)

Anecdotal but I find I have better luck on A4-5 than 3, and it doesn't feel any more common on A6+ .

Gooncrawl status update: -Ring of Flames and Regeneration are now permabuffs! -Xom no longer attempts to give you permabuffs, I think (you would get stuck with it turned on and couldn't turn it back off due to the way I implemented it).

CBRO doesn't daily build it, so Johnstein would have to trigger a manual re-build. I haven't been hanging out on ##crawl-dev recently because my client keeps getting disconnected, so I don't know how active Johnstein currently is. However, I don't really like bugging server admins for updates unless I hit a milestone (like, all planned permabuffs implemented instead of just a couple). If you want to head to there or ##crawl and ask him nicely, I'm sure he would update it though. CPO and X-Crawl are set up to daily build though, so they should be live with the latest dev version if you want it now.

Oh hey an Orc Wizard can double tap an attack with a dagger of Electrocution. And it can deal 24 damage in a single hit. Check those glowing weapons. Edit: in the biggest brain move, I died to the Blork the Orc's hand axe of execution on my very next character. Dee Ehm fucked around with this message at 06:42 on Nov 20, 2018 |

I started farting around with FaerieDragonFI (FDFi? FaFI?) and they're surprisingly not bad. I've done D15, Orc, Elf, and Lair and am well positioned to do Shoals and Snake equipment wise. I could see three runing one pretty easy, but I imagine like the other -10HP races they suffer greatly in extended. Lots of gear luck needed though, since you can't rely on armour for resists and AC. My current guy only has 20AC, and I bet you'd never think Cloaks, Boots, Gloves, and Hats were so rare playing one of these guys. Apts seem all right, and you actually get a surprising amount of skilling done when you can't put them in Armour. Throwing and Evo are good ideas because with low AC and low HP you generally don't want people up in your grill. I was thinking with no armour these guys could be stealthy, but the -5 Stealth apt kind of counters that. However the game seems convinced that I should be since: - Camouflage skin mutation x2 off the same mutation potion - Only usable ring before Elf was Stealth - Only buyable armour before Orc 2 were the boots of the assassin If you're dumb like me and only play Fi M+F is the way to go for FD because like other Smalls (hobbits) they can get eveningstars. I feel like I'm playing against intended by not doing spellcasting at all though.

how good is a +7 greatsword of speed with +6 dex compared to a +7 morningstar of flaming? i have 16 in maces and 2 in long blades?
|
# ? Nov 23, 2018 14:45 |

Well, not good. (1.7 base speed - 0.1 from your skill in long blades) * 0.66 from the speed brand means the greatsword takes ~1.067 turns to swing. Compare this to your morningstar which is 1.5 speed - 0.8 from the skill in maces, which gets you right up to mininum delay of 0.7 turns. Secondly, greatsword is 16 base damage, -3 base accuracy requiring 2-hands. Morningstar is 13, -1 requiring 1-hand. The Dexterity bonus is really only there to help with evasion and very slightly boosting accuracy. I'd stay with the morningstar, personally, it has greater flexibility with the experience you already invested in Maces.

It would be really nice if you had 16 in longblades But by the time you get your LB skill high enough you probably would've found a mace upgrade anyways. And even if you didn't, you'd still have 16 levels worth of extra xp to throw in some other skill to make yourself stronger. Switching weapon categories at that point is usually not worth it.

Maxes and flails are usually the best class anyway, given the amount of demon whips around.

That's a funny way to spell Axes.

A mace is just a blunt axe, after all.

Kavros posted:I love all of it! Thank you for Gnolls! Thank you for convincing me to give Gnolls a try. Everything you said about them is true, and more. It feels so good to be able to murder Siegmund in the face with Mephitic Clouds and sling bullets before yanking the scythe out of his still-warm hands and going ham on some goblins with it. Gnoll Wanderer has to be my favorite new race/class combo in a roguelike.

Just watched a Korean player on Twitch splat his character in a Zig, but it was interesting because it seemed his crawl had sound effects? Is that an actual thing? I recognized the death SFX from one of the Castlevanias.

Someone mentioned earlier that Gnoll was good because it eliminated skilling choices, and most people (including me) disagreed. However one thing I don't mind is Djinni eliminating messing around with food. It's always kind of weird to play some Djinni and then go back to a "normal" character who has to eat; I could see that part of the game being removed entirely (other than purps) and not really having an effect on anything.

PMush Perfect posted:It's a balancing factor for a few parts of the game, notably Gozag. I haven't followed that discussion, but wasn't the "spawn more monsters on level instantiate, spawn less over time" in part supposed to address that? E.g. so you couldn't hang around forever waiting for monsters to spawn for free gold.

Yeah I should probably explain why I'm not making builds even though I really want to, shouldn't I? Basically the compiler I'm using, MSYS2, updated a binary (gnupg) earlier this month which deletes the command shell for the compiler itself, rendering it unusable, I think, I figured it out after I just sat there reading my compiler and screenshotting where it was in the update process. If it weren't for this, you guys would have had a couple of dev builds put out by now.
