if you want to do mega zigs, you probably want a high HP character, because nothing protects you like high HP does, and by the time you've gotten to a zig, there's a good chance you've found statue form or necromutation to replace gargoyle's innate torment resistance.

Good caster gods are of course vehumet or sif muna. If you want to bomb ziggurats, you'll probably want to switch to makhleb in the lategame, because you'll probably have found some source of channeling, and only good players can clear ziggurats without makhleb.

a) you can probably pull that orc pack around and go back up those stairs unless there are more already moving to surround you

>>
>>128607120
lesser jewel in your inventory is essentially an inexhaustible torch so you should be wearing that once you get a chance

you should wear the ring until it is IDed

the rag is either an artifact or more likely what in any other *band would be called an ego. I'm guessing it is a +stealth one but who knows, I'm fairly new too. Your current studded leather of venom's end is likely better.

You should probably be wielding the special bastard sword over the starting curved sword if only to ID it, though there's a chance it's a cursed thing (though some curses are still useful for a while e.g. Fury)

I guess try backing away until you can find a stair, even a downstair. Then you can take it back upstairs immediately if you don't want to be at 250, at least while you try to find a safe space to rest. You may be doomed though.

There's some chance that one of your potions is e.g. confusion and that throwing it at the orc closest could help but I recommend fleeing and hoping for a stair

If I was smart I would've come here before going past Khelevaster, but hindsight is 20/20. Wouldn't go for an Ultra regardless, but the scroll would be nice.

Level 24 Dwarven Priest. Have the Rolf Combo, so I might go for Find Weakness and continue the ball rolling on wrecking shit in Melee.

Need to go through Tower of Eternal Flames next. Wands of Digging are made of teak in this game, so that's a no go. So I either get rings of ice and pickaxe through or Mystic Shovel. Or just try to find the rings of ice naturally / hope for the Mystic Shovel book in the Rift.

4 Corruptions, none are that bad except that the most recent one is the -9 DV for +6 damage one, so that'd be nice to get rid of before more stack on top of it.

i never really had problems with wands of digging there... but then, i think i always had a ring of ice because i always went for the best dwarven mystic award instead of the axe

to waste a wish for rings of ice doesn't seem that good imo... i'm sure you still have places to visit where you can find it

so, what to consider imo:

find weakness - note that you will need a lot of time before you train it though
seven league boots - drastically increase your speed, in the wilderness too
scrolls of corruption removal - bless them then btw
archery - the best way to get rid of the bosses, you need to train bows though
arrows of demon slaying - the best way to kill acw, if you don't have them yet, yet again you need to train bows at least a bit
>>
>>128611771
>archery
I want to say archery the skill does very little, though maybe it was changed.

>arrows of demon slaying
Can you even wish for that? Or is that a separate type of arrow as opposed to an ego?

If you really want to wish for something to kill the wyrm, get spellbooks of [ball spell]. I think you have to use the priest spell names.
>>
>>128610584
The alternative is manually destroying your staves of regeneration. Your time is much too valuable for that.

>I want to say archery the skill does very little, though maybe it was changed

>Can you even wish for that? Or is that a separate type of arrow as opposed to an ego?

afaik you can (also google wishing for demon slaying)
don't wish for generic slaying though, afaik you will get random slaying ammo like giant slaying or something, slaying is ego

I don't think plain ol' "staffs of regeneration" exist in PCB.

Is that some other variant?

If its autodestroy works like PCB's you would want a rule like
>!staffs:regeneration$

The $ is the end-of-string indicator, so it won't match "staffs of regeneration of <thing>.

>>
>>128626489
Can i post my latest win one? I didnt start a new game yet..
>>
>>128607518
Ok.

First, before you do the warg quest you might want to look for a wand of heal monster as well as haste monster. You should be able to find some before you get to the wargs. Try to find more than one of these as they tend to either explode because of curses or get destroyed by fire hounds or traps.

Second, keep an eye out for magical figurines in the wand shop in town as sometimes you will get a unicorn or some thing that you can ride that is tougher than the starting horse.

Third, keep an eye for staves of summon monster (not summoning, those are bad!) or summon hydra. Keep in mind that the quality of the summoned monsters depends on dungeon depth so the deeper you the better the chances that you can summon a sweet mount. You can find these staves in the black market in the starter town.

Do keep in mind that as a cavalry guy you have short and long bows as well as the yumi skills set to beginner so you should stock up on some phase door scrolls. With the phase doors and a decent supply of arrows you should be able to soften up most threats before they start scratching up your ride and you will build the riding skill up every time you shoot while mounted.

As for weapon selection, you may need to diversify as decent lances are hard to come by in the beginning so look for a decent warhammer or anything with "Riding" in the description.

Let me know if any of that advice helped, please.

Well, 4.0 is an experimental version.
I don't know why but now devices are somehow randomized, too. But not completely randomized.

I don't know. I'm pretty sure that if you want to mod PCB you should first try with 3.5, but I tried playing that again and I just couldn't go back to the old UI.
>>
>>128630461
That's an issue with the way that the ego index works.

The new device system just uses the ego index, but there aren't enough values to correctly call the required elements to forge a device now (device type, device effect, device ego) since there are only 2 values in object type. Chris needs to devise a new system for it to work.

They seem cool in theory, but yeah. They only have very few attack spells and they get something like 3 blows per round.

But the thing is that when I looked at the rewards for the other quests (example: Wand of rockets/disint/rod of mama balls for a specific high quest if you're a devicemaster and a wand of frost bolts for the warg quest if you are a devicemaster) the wand code , which is 269: xxx, was fine. Those four items had what you could call a "3.5 code" but only apparently, since when I looked at the list of the wands in prefsomething by looking at the code, I only got different results. Say that wand of rockets is 269:559. You check for "559" in the GIT repository and find it's defined as "rockets". So you think, wowie gee I am going to grab the ID code of another wand since it's supposed to work the same and use it!

Wrong. Because for some reason yes, rockets matches but frost bolts does not and so don't all the other Wands.

Only rockets.

I will probably spawn myself a rune sword as a zerker as a thief quest reward like that dude did and hope I have fun.

Mount selection - dragons. Seriously, work your way up to where you can either pokeball or buy a magical figurine of an ancient dragon or better.

The reason I say dragons is because they tend to be the fastest mounts. Once you have a dragon work on getting a dracolisk or a greater bile wyrm or venom wyrm. Also, the longer you fight and ride on a mount the faster your mounted movement speed becomes so find a good ride and stick with it for a while. Avoid crystal anything as they reflect heal monster and haste monster spells.

I like to play half-titan for the free probing and high strength and constitution.

He is normally found on dungeon level 81, and moves extremely quickly. Killing this evil Human is worth about 1215000.00 points for a 1st level character. He reflects bolt spells. He usually appears with escorts. He is magical, casting spells intelligently which produce water balls, psycho-spear, cause brain smashing, produce mana bolts, terrify, confuse, heal-self, dispel-magic, blink-self, teleport-self, stop the time, teleport to, teleport away or summon aid; 1 time in 2. He can pass through walls. He regenerates quickly. He resists acid, lightning, fire, cold, poison, water, nexus and time. He cannot be confused or slept. He takes a while to see intruders, which he may notice from 1000 feet. He may carry up to 14 good objects. He can hit to time with damage 5d8, hit to time with damage 5d8, hit to time with damage 5d8, and kick to disenchant with damage 8d10. (Hengband 1.6.0)

Is it just me or are blasty mages in PCB even more of a chore than the normal game? It's like I have to scum a dlevel with a large open room to kill every dungeon boss, and even then it's hard unless you're overleveled as fuck. Compare to most melee where you just buff and go, or buff and do the teleport game for a bit.

I just gave up on a lich round level 30 because it was a pain in the ass killing anything that put up any kind of fight.

>>128671520
the secret is to use a hallway and ctrl+attack to try and attack without stepping. This prevents you from confuse-moving even if the attack goes unexpectedly towards an open tile because of confusion, so you avoid the surround etc. The Variant Maintainer is squishy enough that most melee dudes can murder him in this way while confused.

What's the easiest class to attempt madness with?
I think it's Archmage, but i'm also looking at this guide: http://forums.te4.org/viewtopic.php?f=61&t=42998
The adventurer build seems more easy and tab-autoattack, while the Archmage is more suited to my style.
However, the adventurer build seems to ease A LOT the slog of madness later and it involves way less kiting and more tab-spam later in the game.

Anyway, if i chose the adventurer build, i can't figure early levelling and point distribution to get as safely as possible to the core of the build.
>>
>>128671715
I did just that of course but it wasn't really Variant maintainer that killed me but the tele that landed me directly next to him at 40 hp after stepping on a confusion trap and getting arrowpenetrated by 10 novice rangers.

I think that build got fucked for 1.3, with timeless not extending unstoppable anymore, so you'd either play archmage or the demonologist/sacrifice shield adventurer which works pretty well at least up until dreadfell, where I splatted

You probably shouldn't play madness desu, not really fun at that point.

Don't know why you quoted me, but here's my two cents:
Slaying is better for killing stuff, and that should be your priority.
Are you struggling to survive? If so, keep the 5 AC until you feel you can make it without it.
Othwerwise, keep slaying.

ADoM is pretty easy in the early game and pretty sandboxy in general. Lots of content, definitely not as much as PCB or Cata, but more than crawl.

You'd get a different impression since folks love spouting memes around here, but it's better in the spoiler department than most *hacks.

It's not as spoiler-free as brogue or Sil, but there's precisely one instakill spoiler (the banshee), which is easily avoidable and well known to boot, besides it only applying to one level of the main dungeon. There's the cat thing, which is not really dangerous unless you're a enormous scrub, as demonstrated by troll archmage guy when he killed literally every cat he found so the cat lord would give him more experience. Those two are pretty much the only spoilers you should care about, and they don't matter until the late game.

Being an esper is pretty nifty, though. I have no "real" direct damage skills and I'm out of bullets so I'm having real trouble dealing with robots since I can't destroy their minds.

This is my current plan - increasing one stat with ego projection, refreshing with mass mind and increasing another stat. This gives me more stats than a level 30 warrior. Shame I'm still fucking dumb at using weapons.

Smithing is very XP intensive, you you really need to spend at least 3600 (2600 if you have proficiency) on it to get good things at the start (2100 for level 6, 500 for a base-type smithing, 1000 for artistry).

Um? I mean Fedhas is literally "I maek shroom and get through Lair", his later powers might be tricker but hey, you're past Lair with minimum effort. With Oka it's more like "I can get quite a bit killer and also twice killier but I still need some proper threat assessment, oh and also I get gifts that are mostly junk but occasionally amazing". Seems a bit more complicated. Should I melee that hydra under Hero? The answer is unclear. Should I let that hydra walk through my shroom field, get confused and die horribly? Sure, why not.

nah, lucky on a RK is redundant since you get the rune of luck at level 40 (seriously who the fuck created rune knights) and yeeks really need those stats. I'd go with sexy honestly, it gets the best mileage with the +1 attributes and good apts without being as tepid as ordinary.
Aggroing everything in LOS is bad though since a simple trick for early conga is to just zap a wand at a sleeping wyrm from afar. The original won't wake up, but the clone will follow you.

It's really up to you, lucky is the "safest" route. Sexy is more fun and works better on the long run. Besides, yeeks have good stealth already.

It's pretty good. I only have like 500 damage, but it's vamping. And obviously I have a billion speed, so.

No shooter, no gloves, 4 rings. Other than that normal slots.

This is untrue. Max high breath damage is the same as it was in 3.5.0 (800-250 depending on type). Rocket damage is still 650 max or something like that.

Certainly spell casters are more of an issue now, because their damage numbers are still high at low HP, but the caps on high breath are unchanged.

Either way, it doesn't really make Jack's depth make any more sense.
>>
>>128708564
All the resistible breaths were reduced in the commit that changed resistances.

Yeah, but it used to be 800.
>>
>>128704934
You get a guaranteed drop of Poseidon's artifact spear if you *kill* him, but that will happen much later in the game.

Also, demigods get a choice of special bonus powers at level 20 and 40. You can get things like resisting some of the damage from all breath weapons, walking at double speed, getting HP back every time you kill something, etc.

Sil has actual tactics. As in, there are special mechanics to encourage moving on certain ways for different purposes and skills which allow you to further take advantage of positioning.

Crawl has next to no tactical depth, even less so past the early game, and even then it's mostly fake, very situational difficulty like many builds getting 1-shotted by early ogres they don't even manage to tickle when cornered or "oops you're dead" if RNG fucks you over and there's multiple orc priests in a orc pack and you're playing a low HP race.

well that obvously isn't true, I thought it would be very useful since using destruction invocations use hunger and no or little piety.
>>
>>128714357
>very situational
I'm not saying it's common, I'm saying that's the only difficulty Crawl offers. Everything is either fodder you can always tab through without a care or super-deadly ubermonsters which you can never risk fighting unless absolutely necessary. Likewise, any pretense at difficulty instantly fades if you get a blowgun or a good wand or two early.
>>
>>128714463
Neither is very useful for Makhleb (assuming you are at 6* piety) already. Might as well wear gourmand in that case so you can swap to a useful amulet when you find one.
>>
>>128713719
Cantoras really is fucked up.
>>
>>128714852
Faith is very useful with Makhleb if you use his abilities, since they eat piety. The abilities are also pretty good.
>>
>>128714648
>>128714852
Faith is ridiculously strong with Makh since your piety determines whether you can summon friendly cacodemons or not and your healing depends of how high it is.
Gourmand does the same as eating a ration of bread so do that instead.
>>
>>128713689
Could you give an example?
>>
Who should I worship on my MfGl? Oka? Ash? Chei?
>>
>>128715164
I already did. There's no middle ground in crawl, there's no moderately strong monsters you should watch out for but not go out of your way to avoid. It's either "90000000 goblins? No problem!" or "Don't get inside the ogre's instakill aura". This ironically results in any actual threats being very easy to avoid as everyone plays accounting for them right from the beginning.
>>
>>128713689
Could it be that you're just bad at Crawl? Early ogres shouldn't be a problem for a reasonably experienced and thoughtful player. By the time you reach them, you'll have several consumables to deal with the situation, if only to escape. Players often exploit the speed mechanics, giving the ogre a free swing in order to get to the stairs (it's a stupid feature, but it's still legitimate mechanical complexity).

Actual 1-hit kills are very rare, as is actually being adjacent to the ogre when it is first spotted.
>>
>>128715586
You're all misreading. I'm not saying the puny PC mortals get routinely killed by God-Ogres for daring to taint their view of the dungeon, I'm saying that Ogres, orc priests etc are literally the only things you worry about in crawl, while everything else may as well not exist for all the impact it has to your character's chances of survival.
>>
>>128715546
>There's no middle ground in crawl, there's no moderately strong monsters you should watch out for but not go out of your way to avoid.


Hobgoblins, adders, the aforementioned ogres depending on your loadout, all uniques before lategame, centaurs after their first appearance, etc. Crawl is full of monsters that you need to prepare for fighting, might use up some resources if things go bad, but aren't 'instakill'.
>>
>>128715852
>while everything else may as well not exist for all the impact it has to your character's chances of survival.
This is largely because dcss characters have a billion consumables and that pretty much everything after lair can be killed in a one-on-one fight without much difficulty.
>>
>>128715852
Isn't that how all linear dungeon crawls are structured? Of course only the leading edge of the monsters are going to be challenging, because your character gets stronger all the time. The rest are just there as food and to show the player that the PC's gotten stronger.

It's just like how you wouldn't be afraid of an orc warrior in Sil when he's right next to Morgoth. Sil has a shallower power curve, but it's still there.
>>
>>128715272
Chei :^)

>Isn't that how all linear dungeon crawls are structured?
Consider brogue, because dcss wants to be it anyway. Trying to manfight a dragon with a lot of builds will kill you. In dcss, you can just use all your potions/nets/curare/evocables to gangbang some endgame dude in a killhole.

>Sil has a shallower power curve, but it's still there.
Sil still has badass endgame monsters you don't want to fight because it's too risky or would take too many consumables. DCSS doesn't.
>>

It's followed up by "Please submit and *epic* bug report to the angband.oook.cz ladder."
>>
>>128716540
I should add that pcb isn't much better than dcss in this regard, as most non-unique monsters are irrelevant unless they appear OOD and most monsters can be removed without fighting. However pcb endgame monsters at least do enough damage to kill players unlike dcss (and the angband playerbase is less inclined to whine endlessly if they do get two-shotted in late game, so I don't expect dcss endgame to ever change).

Not a Sil expert, but I think the draw here is that there are ways to interact with the dungeon other than killing monsters. There might be a dragon guarding a treasure, and there could be ways to get the treasure but never a way to fight the dragon profitably.

Contrast that to Crawl where you kill everything for XP and hoover up whatever loot is lying around on the floor.

Stealing runes/orb is actually pretty common.

>It's just like how you wouldn't be afraid of an orc warrior in Sil when he's right next to Morgoth. Sil has a shallower power curve, but it's still there.
Actually you would, depending on the situation and how the placement and awareness of said orc warrior affects your tactical capabilities. For example, if you're a stealth build and the orc warrior happens to walk into to you, he could warn the entirety of Morgoth's cafeteria; he could block your escape path, leaving you open to attacks from bigger enemies for the few rounds that it might take to kill or walk around the warrior; if he gets behind you he'll give other opponents surrounding you an accuracy bonus; he could potentially block your sprint path and cancel your fast; and so on.

Teleportation is great in consumable form (and still remains pretty common),
but unlimited teleportation is more problematic and encourages things like
using it repeatedly and with no real cost in various places (especially the
Abyss, for example). The ring remains with its *Tele property as a

So why not try a game of console crawl if that's what you've been playing with tiles.

Brogue looks cool and flashy though depending on what you want to learn I'm not sure I'd recommend it, because it has things that console roguelikes don't have like mouse support and all the colours (because it isn't one. Or rather, there is a console version of brogue and it's quite ugly).

I avoid the curse by using Greenshot instead of taking a screenshot the normal way.

Really nice program, it even zooms in so you can be more precise when selecting an area and if you're in a hurry you can make it directly upload the screenshot to imgur. You can also exclude the mouse, easily select a single window and so on.

One of the reason I hate playing brogue is the retarded ally AI. 99% of allies in roguelikes are bubbling idiots that you cannot control and end up doing extremely stupid shit when you don't want them to, which considering this is a turn based game is one of the word things imaginable.
Like, imagine you were playing chess and after your tuen you got an extra move. Pretty cool right? But you cannot predict what it is going to be, it's just an extra move from an AI created by an amateur dev that plays chess.
It's not deep blue.
And so you get that fucking pawn that was just thinking it'd be great to eat that rook but completely blocked the space you were going to put your knight on to checkmate your opponent

This is what ally AI feels like in brogue. It's annoying and I hate it.
I want an ally-less brogue fork.

That's a good point about the wings. I was actually imagining wings, so wing-like constructs is a bad way of describing it.

It is indeed supposed to be a Mothman, but Mothman is never explicitly described, so I was going for an amalgam of the sightings which people encountered.

I could probably also cut the bit about the cries out since I'm not sure how to phrase that bit correctly.

As I said though, it's not my own writing that spooks me, it's the imagining I have to do to get an idea. Probably not cut out for writing, but it's the best I can do. Thanks for the feedback, anon.

Not him but fuck, I just want my allies to be able to be told to get the fuck out of the dry grass on fire vault , the crystal halls sentinel vault, and the cyrstal orbs+spark turrets to light them vault. All it does is shred your allies which is wasting enchantment or pseudo-enchantment in the form of a chance of better actually useful floor drops or force you to skip an equivalent of a scroll of ench/life or better because you took an ally.

Arguably,
I want to give them a force move command to get out of the way of approaching gas or to run through caustic/steam to save themselves.
I want to be able to tell them to not fly over lava or fly towards a target when it can't reach them without triggering the ally leash so they get ropeadoped by a pixie's lightning.
I want to be able to push them back out of a hallway and tell them to fucking wait instead of fucking us against a choke point of ogres and shit guarding the exit
I want to be able to tell them to hold still instead of getting confusion trap locked for 500+ turns because I don't have a staff of obstruction or a source of fire to get to and stand on the trap while it beats me to death - just died from this by the way

I'm not asking for tacticool squad logic, I just want them to not fuck themselves. It's so damn frustrating. Especially when you have poor floor drops but a lot of poor to mediocre allies that keep getting bumped off.

I like the stone and the ring, but I don't know about that helmet I found on Dio.

>turns you into a vampire permanently
even if you take it off?
>>
>>128757941

>>
>>128758256

Also we're 4 posts late for the new thread. Anyone won anything lately? If not I could go with a /rlg/ image I have been itching to use in the OP.
