I'm enjoying it, I like leaving the dungeon with a dude and explore other dungeons and kill things, then return with the loot.
And chopping off limbs, that's also fun.

Regarding PWMAngband, the competition will be played on what is effectively a "local" server with turn-based settings on. This is what I've gathered from the competition thread.

IDK how good it will be, but at least it should be interesting.

"Local" means on your local area network, or in this case, hosted on your own PC.

It will play just like opening a skirmish match in an RTS on your own system.

Not these walls though, since they're not diggable.

See, the thing is though
The thing is
Games are often meant to be won. Usually a reward is to be had for exploring every nook and cranny.
What's the dice roll on that? Like, what's the probability you open the door and it's not a pack of fast breeding teleport spamming, levelporter disenchant breathing summoners summoning summoners and instead is a moderate or even severe challenge you're capable of overcoming with enough skill, forethought and expension of cons- Well, I mean, y'know...

Or even just something interesting and enjoyable to see? Or even, I dunno, something that isn't more than a suckercockpunch thinly veiled as an idiottest? Y'know? It's not entirely unfair I guess, considering that guy survived, it just totally ruins that level from now on I guess?

But nawwww, it's all "bruh, it told u bruh y didn't u listen about the runed doors bruh"
Probably because that goes against everything that is otherwise indicated by the game's actions so far.

What stopped you from checking out the vault in Puppy Cave? Afraid of the cavernous level? If you do check out the vault, run the hell out of there if it's mixed, mixed vaults in Puppy Cave are 80% deadly.

Other than that just go to Caverns of Chaos, the main dungeon, and down to dwarves. If you happen to find R1, you can do that too. Not sure about R2 on level 10. What's your race/class by the way?

Dwarven Duelist.
I've splatted my last character on the puppy cave vault, so I'm weary.
Are any of the random dungeons worth looking for? I heard they also feature some easier ones.

Main problem is a huge stack of various gear that I can't ID because of the lack of altars.

Did you generate Small Cave at level 1? Then you might try running through it without killing anything. If you didn't, don't even think of going there now without magic mapping and controlled teleportation.

Puppy Cave's vault can be anything. Jellies and mixed are a no-go, but it might be something easier like orcs or gnolls+hyenas as well. You should check it and just run if you see something dangerous there.

Yes, killing Oracle and eating her corpse, gives +Le and +Ma, don't remember how much. She casts death rays, so don't stand in straight line. Also eating her curses and dooms, so you need to remove this ASAP.

Every 5 points of Le gives one more skill advancement per level and Ma influences luck rolls. Once you have enough piety to just take off curse and doom (and enough escape options or power to survive the trip from HMV to the nearest altar), you should eat her unless you don't like free stats. Wear a blessed amulet of balance when attacking her if you are worried about alignment drop.

>>123696828

Do the first dwarven quest, the guy will identify all your stuff if you already have Literacy. You usually don't need identification before that (priest in dwarf town will tell you about your healing potions if you chat with him and you have any). After that it's reading blessed scrolls of identify from time to time. Read on wiki how to bless your stuff if you don't already know.

Play Elona. Find out about how two foreigners kill a hobo in his cave home, have you eat his corpse, take anything of value and leave you with some of his junk, including a chest of valuables they failed to open, to incriminate you, dig up his nest egg of gold bars which they swap out with a fake and give back to you without your knowledge, then have you kill his pet putits before leaving you holding the bag so to speak.

I viewed it as a convenience thing. Want to spend 40 days welding on your vehicle and breaking wrecks down for metal? Gonna tackle this lab or make a sewer rover? No breaks for hunting. no breaks for foraging every third day. No bulk charcoaling and raiding ant hills for smoked meat and ant eggs. In 1 day you get an entire year or more of food and you're free until it rolls around again. Installing funnels in your vehicle with dirty water tanks keeps you supplied on the move.
>>
>>123721864
And another thing,a side effect of getting it is that you have lots of time building up melee skills, bow skills, you gain a forge, kilns, and a smoking rack. It just gives you an incredibly stable foothold. Whether you get sick, get critically wounded, want to read for eternity uninterrupted, it's all there now.

Dude we've barely talked about DCSS the last 3 threads.

>>123727609
Vehicles. You can make a cart out of wood and nails with no (low?) skills.

Technically you can throw stuff in a locker and pull it around, too, but unless you are super buff you won't get much in it.
>>
>>123727609
Lockers are the preferred. 8000 vol, can only see contents when near, and block LoS. You can get sheet metal deconstructing ovens until you can remove quarterpanels from cars. constructing cupboards is a ghetto second. You'll want 2 fridges as well, If there's an underground, it's preferred to store your stuff there or store the things you'll miss in storage "vehicles" made out of wood framed with wood boxes from 2 wood frames. Generally, block LoS with lockers/fridges and put your stuff behind that so NPC's don't see and thus wont smash to get to something and boarding up doors/windows helps.
>>
>>123727305
I've played it. It doesn't belong here. It's not a roguelike, it's a roguelikellike.

>>123728054
Yeah, I figured this would help. I stole a shopping cart from a grocery store and have been dragging it around everywhere.
>>
>>123728473
Craft fishing hooks for fabrication 1. Then either do wooden needles for fab 2 or just make 2 wooden frames until you succeed. * place vehicle. Then examine andi nstall a wood box which costs your second wood frame. bam, a 150 vol "shopping cart" out of some 2x4's and nails.Since you already have a thing though, if you can get your hands on a steel frame and some duct tape you can put in a trunk or a cargo carrier onto your shopping cart to haul more for only 50 duct tape.

Yeah. Usually those blue runed doors aren't even that bad.
But like, there's not even any flavor or fluff or whatever in those "lol uber-vault get shrekt overlevelcappin on ur bases" and it's pretty... pretty random. I acknowledge that I might have to kite around a vampire twice my level if I dig up a grave, but I mean, not everyone plays summoners either.

Totally reasonable and it makes up for the other cases where they make a level permanently unsalvageable, right?
>>
>>123734235
I don't play tome4 but wouldn't you argue that if you had the judgement or were willing to put in the time and splats to be able to accurately judge your ability to dip them, isn't the uniques and other rare loot worth it for the massive effectiveness boost they'd give you over ignoring them?
>>
>>123735560
I dunno, either it's a pushover vault with loot that's better than randomfloorvendortrash but usually not even an upgrade or it completely wipes you from the face of the earth with the only real challenge you've seen since you had to figure out if you needed another level before going to norgos lair.

I don't really see why this is a problem. You don't miss out on anything if you clear the level before opening the vault. Even if you have to abandon it, there is absolutely no reason to revisit any dungeon until you come back from the East, and by then you should be able to kill anything the vault spawned easily.

I have played it a little. It's definitely not a roguelike though. It's a 3d action/adventure/stealth/platformer with a few roguelike elements. It has basically nothing in common with the game Rogue.

difficulty ramps up when you go into the second book, theres stone lizards that if they see you they immediately kill you if you stop looking at them

In general just knowing what tactics in general or items at what power let you bypass common gear checks like ogre packs, wraith packs, Dar blade/priest/battlemage packs, Lich's and so on. If you're really new, just use the seed catalog, play that seed with a +3 plate, +3 broadsword, or that 5/5 lighting and +3 wisdom. It's more important to try out all the items to see how effective they can be before just doing random new games if you only know how to empower an ogre in the first 8 floors or die

He lets you buy a couple god-tier semi-custom artifacts towards the last third of the game. Really fucking handy, but probably not worth restarting over.

In a 2014 interview, Miyazaki criticized the current state of anime, saying that the industry was catering too much to otaku and producing an excess of lolicon-themed shows (anime centered around female children and teenagers, often with sexual undertones). He also argued that most current anime had shallow, one-dimensional characters, saying that "Great anime and manga are produced by observing real people in action. That is not the case today because the industry is full of otaku."

But isn't it still a lot better than other survivor armor? Compare it to the duster, for example.
Is there any reason you would pick the survivor duster over nomad gear? Literally over two times the storage.

granted, to remove those you have to mod them out yourself.

Yes.
DCSS almost always gives you a chance of escaping even if you do stupid shit and tab too much.
Encountering an oozemancer or similarly awful unique enemy will get you 2-shot with all your skills on a 40-turn cooldown in ToME if you tab.
I wish ToME was a better game, it feels it has a lot of potential but just feels super bland. Even more so than DCSS.

Well, they're worn in different layers, so you can actually have both with no extra encumbrance.

Really, the main thing to remember about survivor items (and I'm counting the nomad gear as one) is that they're completely silly. Don't expect them to be balanced, compared to each other or anything else. Feel free to use them, but don't be surprised if you become an unstoppable angel of death.

Not trying to start shit flinging, serious question: why are people saying DCSS is casual? Granted, I haven't played many roguelikes before Crawl, but it has very good challenge from the beginning. Surely, the game becomes easier as character progresses, but isn't that in every roguelike? After finishing ADOM so many times I can't play it anymore, early game is like playing Diablo 2: very few surprises UNLESS you deliberately put on retard hat and go to dangerous places lvl1.

Instead of having one attack for 120 damage, juggernauts now have two separate attacks for 80 and 40.
This weights it more towards uh, 60, I guess? Or something? I forget what the specifics are as compared to say, two attacks for sixty though.
Oh, and a minimum damage of two.
Makes all of the sense anon and I'm probably not misreading that or implementing the coding or showing a poor understanding of probability here.

On a related note, what's the point of Ashezari? I know it supports hybrids, but cursing ring/necklace slots sounds like a bad idea in extended. Would something like gladiator branching into conjurations work, or bad idea? Don't have much success with magic in Crawl for some reason.

>>123773618
Besides the skill boosts when you have cursed items, I really like going Ashenzari for the passive wallhack and item identification, it lets you play really carefully. I've had some success playing a stealthy stabber and going Ashenzari. Cursing your gear isn't as bad as it sounds, just don't curse things you know you will want to swap out soon and always keep some uncursing scrolls.
>>
>>123774405
Monster detection's really sweet, I agree, but did you curse jewellery for magic boosts? Haven't thought of using Ash for stabbers yet, but in theory that makes sense. Also, does *** prevent berserk?
>>
>>123774391
The sword is way better: higher base damage, chance to blind, +physical damage, stamina when hit are all breddy gud. Plus your hits from assault are guaranteed crits anyway.
>>
>>123774391
For now use the Skullcleaver, since it has a chance for Greater Weapon Focus. Which is very very useful.
>>
>>123773618
>but cursing ring/necklace slots sounds like a bad idea in extended.
Why? You can also leave one jewellery slot uncursed for a lesser boost but still being able to swap if needed.
>>
>>123774894
>>123774992
damn /rlg/, thanks tho'

>Plus your hits from assault are guaranteed crits anyway.
what do you mean?
>>
>>123774753
I only curse jewelry if I get a really good ring I know I won't be replacing for a while, usually I always curse amulets too because those don't need to be swapped like ever in early/midgame. I'm still quite new to Crawl though I must say so I might not be the best one to give advice about this, but the furthest I got was with an Ashenzari vinestalker assassin and I could've probably won if I didn't go to Elf 3 and get hellfire spammed. And I think *** prevents forced berserk but it should still let you evoke/use it intentionally.
>>
>>123773690
The proper question is - when does it stop to be fun and challenging. It stops to be fun after you do IQD/FGJC, and stop to be challenging if you reach HMV after level 1 UD dive or, if you didn't do that, about the time you reach CoC.
>>
>>123775105
>"Hits the target with your shield, doing 100–150%cTWD damage. If it hits, you follow up with two automatic critical hits with your weapon, doing 100–150%cTWD base damage each."

>>
>>123761769
What? Weren't they removed in some earlier trunk update?
>>
>>123774391
>>123774213
It's literally as simple as looking at your crit damage on the character screen and deciding which one has the overall higher DPS once you factor in the damage bonus critting will add.
So long as you're not having any trouble overcoming the damage resistance (No shaving for the most part in tome, right, just percent reduction usually?) or regen of things, you won't need the lol spikes that can come from critting assaults.
Check and see if your skills want you to be critting stuff and decide if that makes it worth it, I don't know what your abilities want right now.

So, while we're giving exhaustive itemization optimization advice, how the sweet everloving fuck do I cut down on my inventory as a nemelex worshipper? I can't hold all these god damn consumables and it's only D:12, I haven't even peeked into orc yet and just dipped lair!
>>
>>123775035
Won't I lose much if leave amulets uncursed? The plan's to go gladiator of Okawaru then switch to Ashezari for extended.
>>123775114
I never do elven halls until before Vault 5, and sometimes I delay it even longer.
>>
>>123775152

When you use Assault you hit the enemy three times: First attack is with your shield, the next two with your weapon. The weapon attacks will ALWAYS be critical hits.
>>
>>123775447
>Won't I lose much if leave amulets uncursed?
Well, yes, you get less of a boost, but if you need to swap in a rC+ ring to not die to ice fiends, it might be worth it. Though I would just curse rMut and be done with it -- not like any other amulets do anything in extended unless you found one of the unrands.

I've yet to run out of food with ANY race in any roguelike ever, did you play spriggans or something? If so, try training Spellcasting when you reach Lair. As for death/fire/cold, you just have to swap slots for resists unless your armor already provides enough.
>>123775775

RIP lol
also, another anon suggested you go for Subtle Casting and I agree with him. It's super strong. Normally, when you damage monsters from range, they become "ticked off" and temporarily lose access to their weaker spells and abilities, making them much more dangerous. Subtle Casting makes this happen much less often.

Iron Lich almost always kills a character the first time a player encounters one. Now you know.

>>123771421
wow I just realized that Qs and other summoning characters can probably avoid the Amberite blood curse because they aren't directly killing it themselves. No need to remember your antimagic swap.

O btw, your defensive stats arent that great so might wanna take some caution when going inside, especially around hydras and thoose thorn craps

oh jeebus
report results, I have no idea if the dragon can handle your traps. I haven't tried the Burglary realm yet.

But even if you just lure it away from the little vault you should be able to get in and nab the items. Also though not immediately useful here, worth knowing that any teleportation magic used while in a vault will land you outside the vault.

Anon please. The most important thing with these races is to properly skill, since you don't have nearly as much leeway as you do with as a race with +2 in a weapon skill and dodging. Know exactly how much weapon skill you need, when to take up some fighting and when to stop training in favor of something new that you just picked up. You cannot do anything really stupid like trying to learn necromancy on d:4 or switching weapons since your exp spread is thin. Also, you really need to realize that aptitudes aren't nearly as important as you think they are. What matters is your gear, HP modifier, and the knowledge that you carry between each game you play.

well, considering that a mummy grabbed four runes without ever using any wands, staves, potions (well, mummy), armor, blowguns, throwing things that hurt or any weapon beside his fists

yes

mummies are really good.
>>
>>123791423
Mummies weren't chosen for that challenge because they're good, though.
>>
>>123791501
Indeed. But it just shows how strong they are. Not having a food clock really eases up the game.
>>
>>123791423
Just because mummies are good at a particular conduct relative to other races doesn't make them good in general
>>
>>123791582
>But it just shows how strong they are.

>mummies are good at a particular conduct
You know which race would be "good" at mumo challenge? Trolls. Hell, even prohibit them from quaffing, doesn't matter. Just ripping and tearing shit.
>>
>>123791142
Mummies have some of the strongest endgame because they are torment immune, mutation immune, free rN+++, free rC++, free channeling and the ability to restore their bodies for 1 MP. They literally only fear hellfire bursts and perhaps corrosion.
>>
Pretty much every race would be better than mummies at the MuMo challenge, although I guess that's the point.
>>
pls gib new
>>
>>123791751
Show me your multi-win mummy streaks then

>>123791841
Hunger could be a problem tho, they'd probably be fucked in tomb

>>123791910
The hard part is getting to the endgame consistently as mummy. Practically anything that reaches the endgame is guaranteed a win unless the player fucks up big time though, so having a strong endgame isn't that helpful for winning

>>123791940
Nah, mummies are good at mumo because they can rest to full hp indefinitely, whereas other races might starve.
>>
>>123791423
Mummies suck, dicks is just literally one of the best DCSS players. He could probably play a MiBe as a caster and still win.
>>
>>123792286
Mummies aren't even that hard once you've learned all of dck's trcks. Melee mummies in particular are fairly simple, especially if you ever find a venom weapon. MuWz are very strong too, but are much weaker to RNG. Not being able to quaff makes most of your situations "fight or flight", except you can run forever so you can always reset a 1v1 battle.
>>
>>123792687
>Crawl isn't even that hard once you've learned how to play it

>>123792687
>a game isnt hard to play once you learn how to play it
What the fuck did i just read?
>>
>>123792687
Don't get me wrong, DCSS is an easy game, it's just that mummies aren't that great relative to other races, and it's primarily because of their poor aptitudes and inability to quaff.

>>123791940
Assuming other races couldn't quaff either, I'm not entirely sure about this because some particular races like DE and HE have such a shitty offensive growth regardless and no helpful gimmicks that they may have to reset fights enough that food could become a problem and they might actually starve.
Pretty much any other would do a lot better at the challenge than an actual mummy though, or at least I can't see why they wouldn't.

The only reason they're good is because they retaliate when attacked and because of the humongous amount of HP hey have. Apts are good for melee, but they really lack anywhere else.

Now, gargoyles.

They're the best race.
