Hey I decided to try getting back into this game, and I've got a problem. For some reason whenever I try to move south or southwest using the numpad, the game just tells me I don't know any spells. I've tried erasing my rc completely, and it did nothing. edit: also how do I play gooncrawl SirSamVimes fucked around with this message at 05:12 on Jan 22, 2020 |

lmao how am I going to gently caress this up I mean the answer is clearly "hubris" but what specifically is going to obliterate me? Note: I got all those muts from a pair of mutation potions I found on D1. edit:I plan on 15 runing and have the Justice pledge, so let's be real it'll be Tomb or Cerebov.

I'm gonna splat some AbAc because getting incinerated by an orc wizard seems fun. Does rF-- increase the damage taken more than rF-, or does it just mean that the first pip of resistance we get does nothing?

Getting two different pieces of info here, is this just something that's different in Gooncrawl and therefore the wiki not applicable? Also, ended up being para'd to death in Spider by Norris, was a fun run though. Managed to find two Octopus King rings before the ride ended.

Zin is the funnest god to worship because you yell at things and they turn into pillars of salt. Also he gives 2/3 of cheistats for very little piety cost and as long as you can cast Sanctuary you have no excuse for dying.

I vote we make it mandatory that the next crab we get has a racial cloud breath, to make it in keeping with Crawl Crab Lore.

Unless they changed the name of jaeger to kraut? edit: I erased my entire .rc in an effort to fix the issue with my numpad on mainline crawl, is there any way to restore the default rc?

Well, it turns out that a) daevas can smite while silenced b) silence can't be canceled like other buffs. Rip my ridiculous gnac, effortlessly killed the seraph then died in Zin's temple.

Arivia posted:I will confirm that yes silence does nothing against spell-like abilities in D&D 3e which is presumably what they're referencing. The question is why the gently caress would you take a set of rules that only works to frustrate people in a very complicated tabletop RPG and stick it in your roguelike as well? Because if demons were affected by Silence it would need to be a 9th level spell.

I can't wait to see how my hubris kills me this time. edit the answer was trying to do elf 3 before the lair branches in an attempt to find some source of rpois SirSamVimes fucked around with this message at 19:31 on Feb 2, 2020 |

Araganzar posted:Dang and you cleared Orc, too. I've done this before and I have to say the few times I've just sucked it up and done Swamp, Snake, or Spider with no rpois it's gone better than going to depths or Elf 3. It's usually pretty easy to get swamp dragon armor unless you're gozag. I forgot SwDA was a thing, whoops.

How do you not notice that you are no longer setting everything on fire by existing?

Speaking of fire clouds, I just got a lovely reminder that when you have Firestarter and a ranged weapon, as soon as you switch weapons the fire clouds will start murdering you again.

If malmutate is staying gone in Gooncrawl (which I still think is a bad change), can we at least make resist mutation officially be considered a bad mut? If it's not protecting you from hostile mutations, then all it does is resist fun.

I liked it existing as a threat that forced you to address it immediately that wasn't just torment or hellfire. Also a threat that had lasting effects that you can't just sit around until they go away. edit: I also liked item corrosion, but burning/freezing scrolls/potions was a terrible mechanic and I'm glad that one's gone.

Jeffrey of YOSPOS posted:You could vary which malmutations you get from different malmuters so eyes are probably giving out -2 strength but orbs of fire have the full suite including berserkitis and friends. Frankly orbs of fire can do anything they want. I really like this idea.

Also while Iskenderun's Undoing is extremely cool, I would like it to stop crashing my game. edit:  Gnollskills + Cheistats is a fun combo. I can cast any level 9 spell I want in plate armour.

I don't get why everyone's terrified of Tomb, it's completely trivialised by Silence which is what, a level 5 spell? And if your offense comes from spellcasting yourself, you probably have access to lichform which trivialises it even harder.

Touche, but the thing that hosed me is that Silence didn't shut down the Daevas whereas it shuts down literally everything short of death curses in Tomb. edit oh, and the death scarabs are kinda dangerous too with the slow.

Maybe you should leave the same level of mut shuffling but make it so if Jiyva gives you a mutation, they always give you the maximum level of it. I feel like that would keep the fun of the shifting nature of a slime god, while taking away the annoying thing where you're just bouncing between baby levels of mutations.

McGavin posted:Doesn't Jiyva stat shuffling try to make all your stats equal, so that you're well-rounded, like a slime? I thought that's how it used to work... It was supposedly supposed to adjust to become beneficial to what you're doing, e.g. if you're wearing heavy armour it shifts into strength but it's never been very good at that.

That rC- is going to be dangerous. edit: You're a Chei worshipper so remember: Step From Time is one of the best emergency buttons in the game. You have blurry vision so if you try to use a blinking scroll everything will get a free swing on you, and that goes double for teleportation scrolls. Don't forget you have Step From Time.

Kaedric posted:I had all three of those things. If you are playing non-gooncrawl (which removed malmutate for some reason) then the solution is to memorise all the types of enemies that can mutate you and as soon as they come into sight you consider your options to limit your being in line of sight with them. The most common ones, like Neqoxecs and Shining Eyes are very squishy and they can't mutate you unless they have a direct line of fire. Ranged means of killing them like throwing weapons are good, but if you don't have any of that then use walls or other enemies to block their LoS and lure them in closer. As a Cheibro, you can use Temporal Distortion which effectively removes you from existence for a few turns and makes them move a bit closer to you, which is an effective way to close the distance without having to walk towards them at half speed. For Orbs of Fire, all bets are off. They're really tough and take a while to kill, which is one of the reasons that a lot of people save Zot for last because it has a fairly strong chance of just ruining your character.
