Turns out you don't even need MingW. Just Python.

Good.
>>
>>127306894
Alright this assumes you know what your doing with computer, but I can easily explain it step by step.

Basically you get python, and make sure you have a package manager to download those new python "wheels", I use pip (https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py).

Then go to http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#curses and click the first link under curses (cp27-none-win32). Save that file somewhere.

Then do a "pip install <file path of the file you just downloaded>" in cmd and you should have curses functionality running in windows.

After that you just do a "python fcrawl.py" in cmd and it works.
>>
>>127308039
Oh, that also assumes your running python 2.7 like I am. If you are running a newer version look for the numbers next to "cp" to figure out which curses version you want.

>>127312298
Pretty sure that crystal spear on average does slightly more damage per point of mp, is more accurate, and requires less casts to kill in general because it's more powerful. But it has less range, requires more mp (which could be bad if you're low on mp and need to attack), and is probably more swingy in the damage you notice because you're casting it less overall relative to iron shot. And it might not actually kill faster/more efficiently if you're 1-2 shotting things anyway. But I don't know; as a backup irresistible spell for a caster I'd just go with iron shot because it takes less spell levels and has more range. But spellforged servitor can also cast crystal spear so that might be the better choice. Might be better to use on bosses too. I don't think the choice matters that much though. And actually I'd go with orb of destruction as an irresistible damage dealer for a (non-earth focused) caster because it's pure conjurations, meaning I don't need to invest heavily in earth magic for good power, although it comes with its own problem of being delayed and sucking ass in corridors.

Also, can you still get to Tomb if you're carrying the Orb of Zot? I think it'd be fun to get the tomb rune while on the run, but I remember someone saying that some portals close when you pick up the orb, and I'm playing .17

Honestly, ASCII via SSH is the ultimate way to play Crawl, but if you have to play tiles (you don't) then local is the way to go, webtiles is too horrendous

>>127315551
I play tiles because ASCII doesn't represent information as succinctly as tiles does. Like, with tiles I can tell from a glance that there's a monster with some status effects standing in shallow water and in a steam cloud

>What do you guys think of TOME?

1. RPG aspect
Most of the time, I don't read journal text.
Shoving tl;dr text in one go isn't the right way to tell a story to player.

You barely can talk to anyone and they're weak, if you want to massacre them.
There's not even a guard.

2. Threat
Except for Unique and boss, you can always one or two shot them.

3. Balance
There's a huge gap between one class and other.
One class can steamroll the game easily, others have a hard time.

4. Poor writing and disgusting shit
The Shertul backstory is really retarded.
Pregnant woman as boss and orc vulvae.
It's amusing how the fuck this shit can get into steam.

5. Last thing
Argoniel and Elandar did nothing wrong.

Brogue is an improvement on rogue that has distinct enemies, significant terrain, tough situations and enemies that aren't a tabstorm in a 2 hr package that keeps the original sp[irit aof brief games instead of this retarded fuckup 27 hours in and welcome back to a shit tedious earlygame of your 40-60 hour run. .

Infra arcana is pretty tight s well

Crawl is probably theb est in acessability. The tiles, tutorial, and ease of minotaur tabbing or za spam is good for easing people into the pool.

Beat 4 blizzard demons and all the simulacra.
I think the most dangerous one was a Hydra with 10 or something heads, but aside from that Fireball, breath and simple mawling did the trick.
It was a very fun variant, and the loot was proportionate to the challenge: 2 randarts (one is a buckler with stats i don't like, the other i can't equip) and scrolls of magic mapping and other miscellaneous consumables.

You are right, that's why i dealt with them with spells mainly, and when (and if) they reached me in melee i'd cast haste and slap their remaining shit in dragon form.

Anyway, cleared the Shoals, took a fuckton of turns to take all the items to my lair, used the occasion to also identify most of my loot and organize a bit the stash. Between this and since i'm almost literally spamming Dragon Form each time there's an enemy (or even sometimes for fun, see pic related and when i visit my stash), hunger is really taking its toll.
Goazg here is my saviour, it's truly an hoarder's greatest ally with its shops of infinite quality food.

Yes, and?

>>127331904
The usual way to do it is convert to TSO and run through crypt to get maximum piety. After that, you do pan -> hell -> tomb. You'll want to get rid of that berserker mut and stop using that -tele amulet. That'll get you killed.
>>
>>127331904
You don't go to Hell, you go to Crypt or Abyss first to grind TSO's piety.
People usually dive Hell to 7th floor ASAP, because there's no loot, so there's no point in exploring all floor.
Hell effect is nasty too, so you'll want max TSO's piety before exploring hell.

>I have never experienced being punished so that might be a problem.
Prepare a method to blink (either through ring or blink spell). You don't want to be in the middle of raging summons later.

> I also have an annoying berserk mutation
Go into Zigurrat and find potion of cure mutation, the first 10 floors should be safe.

>I also have a battleaxe of holy wrath so I could maybe just use that not convert at all.
You convert to TSO for healing on demon / undead kill, and that sweet Cleansing Flame AOE. Brand holy wrath on any executioner axe you have, and keep 1 battle axe / executioner axe of anti magic for backup.

Oh, I realized you've never experience trog wrath. You'll really want to be able to get out of a bad situation at a moments notice. Perhaps with an evocable blink. Trog will drop berserked gank squads on you. Wrath will go away once you get enough experience, so you'll want to waste no time in gathering experience. If you haven't cleared zot, you can do something like TSO convert -> crypt -> zot 1-4. Trog should be mollified by zot 2 or 3, but you'll get into some hairy situations. You'll have to get creative with your evocables.

I don't. The first ten floors should be safe.
I always stay alive at the 10th floor.

If you encounter dangerous situation, just hole up in the corner, read teleport scroll, read scroll of fog, wait until teleport kick in and read scroll of blink to teleport you to exit.
Ziggurat nowadays is pretty easy to escape because they removed -cTele.

The problem with Ziggurat is people don't know when to stop after the safe floor.

Alright. I'm rolling a FoVM. Looking for Vehemut as a god, Sif will do if I find its altar first. I'm not sure how to level my skills, though. Should I focus Venom? Conjurations? How many points would be necessary in air and spellcasting? Should I get dodging?
A little help and advice would be greatly appreciate, splunkfriends.

- smithing
- now allows artefact rings to have bonuses to attack, evasion, and protection
- (since there are regular rings with these)
- removed the ability to add Grace to artefact cloaks
- (just a minor nerf to the extreme +Grace smiths)

- smithing gloves of treachery now correctly forces a <-1> penalty to strength

It depends on like a dozen things incl player skil land patience for retarded bullshit.. Pump venom and conj, use venom bolt and olgrebs once you have rpois to great effect. Poorly melee with some branded weapon at 1.0 delay and decent fighting so you actually hit. From then it's all floor drops and god choice. Veh/Sif will get you poison arrow so you can keep pumping magic and channeling to kill everything forever. bonus for haste. Oka/Chei bump up your melee with your venom being light support until you get PArrow Xom, yred, nem and others are wildcards that generally help you desperately flail through your fights. Doesn't hurt that shields are extremely cheap for you.

Regardless of whatever you want to do, you'll imp park and run up stairs/hatches then down othera LOT. Especially if you don't overinvest into melee. You'll want to pick up pretty much any magic you can that can actually damage undead, rpois, and demons with imb+battlesphere being the jackpot.

they aren't any less trivial than they were before. just annoying garbage tier noobtrap monster that can suddenly kill you if you dont watch your screen when you fight a monster you've fought 100's of times beforehand when it did nothing but suddenly now it does. good design.
>Crazier randarts with a stat cap at 125
this would be decent if they hadn't changed the randart formula to basically add a shitton of negative stuff on every randart making them shit.
also they added new negative randart properties as well that outweight the new +'s multiple times especially with no clarity.

other changes were extremely minor and barely ever mattered.
>>
>>127358850
edain is for when you know what you're doing. I guess you could learn on edain if you actually read the manual but race is essentialyl difficulty modes in Sil soif you want to limit your strategies then go ahead I guess.

I'd imagine later game when acidic and sometimes thundercloudsa are the only one that'll do any meaningful damage
>>
>>127359369
Who considers it a noob trap lmao? The only ways I can see it considered as such is that you could potentially block off a possible escape route or reduce your positioning capability with dangerous clouds; thunder clouds also make a ton of noise and can wake up large amounts of enemies nearby; and clouds can potentially take longer to kill something dangerous than some other method of damage dealing. Still it's not a noob trap lmfao desu senpai

You know, this is kind of a shitty attitude to adopt in Crawl.

Extended is still part of the game, the devs should either treat is as such and full balance with it in mind or cut it once and for all. The half in, half out mentality that has plagued peoples' perception of extended for years isn't doing the game as a whole any favors.

The point is you can do it senpai. I worked a year and a half of full time hellmart nightshift while going to school for 18 credit hours and managed to bring my grades up, you just have to work beyond hard to do it.

If someone as weak-willed as me can do it, I know you can. I can't even get past Vaults with a spellcaster in dcss.

Is that actually true? Because I can make forests like fist of the north woods.

Okay, /rlg/ has made me interested in PosChengband. I just booted it up and wanted to say if it was fun to play / pique my interest into investing some more time into it.

Randomed my way through character generation and dove straight down into the first dungeon, just to get a feel of the game if you know what I mean.

Anyway, it's kind of going better than any carefully created characters I've ever had. I didn't even buy shit in town, just went downstairs. Then I looked at my equipment and figured out why I was kicking so much ass. Is this normal?

ah the Munchkin personality is a cheaty personality that gives plus a billion to every stat, to combat, starts with a jillion gold, auto-identifies and maps everything, etc.

So basically going 100% random gave you the 1/9 chance or whatever it is to land on the ezmodocheater personality ;)

Try again wtihotu foor the Real Experience. Though that said, Monster Demon of Balrog type will always have a strong start, if you want to go for that without munchkin.

that's really odd. Maybe try a fresh copy, and move your savefile and pref files over.

>>127382629
Pasta is slightly outdated because it was written for 3.5 and we're on 4.0 now. Most of the hints in it are still valid, but where it says "Camelot" you should read "Stronghold" as that dungeon was split into two dungeons. The Camelot portion was moved further south, the Stronghold portion is now only 15 floors deep and still will contain your Warg quest.

If Stronghold is only 15 floors is there any reason to not dive to the bottom before you even go to Morivant?

Unless I get some serious stat drains and have no pots to fix them, in which case Morivant it is.
>>
>>127383062
not really, no, unless you are a class that still doesn't have enough damage or potions to reliably take out the boss, which summons humanoids and can overwhelm some characters.

I think that was one of the goals with splitting the dungeons...make it something a new character can actually clear instead of running into "Sir Gawain summons knights of the round table! Sir Lancelot hits you! It hits you! It hits you. It casts a mana bolt! You die."

Also, though I doubt this is the case currently, when your total armor weight is so much that "the weight of your shit encumbers your movement" it (at least) means that your mana pool is reduced. Beyond that, some caster classes require their hands to be free or equipped with free action or +dexterity gloves or gloves 'of the alchemist' to function without a reduced mana pool. Not sure if monks fall into that category.

not quite but there are definitely some things that can help

The run command keeps moving in a direction until you reach a wall or see an enemy move. I can't remember what the standard keyset command for it is...check the commands list in the '?' help.

Also, the ` key (~ but without shift) lets you choose a tile to try to path to. It is buggy on the surface world but good in dungeons, though sometimes dangerous if you're using it near unexplored terrain.

Finally, the 0 key lets you enter a number for a command to be repeated, then hit enter and then the command you want to repeat. So 0100[enter]left would go left 100 times.
>>

>>
>>127398908
yeah, in the options
>>
>>127398578
You can turn on always_small_levels to do, well, what it sounds like. Only works for some dungeons and you'll probably want to turn it off late game since small floors make it harder to teleport to somewhere safe.
>>
>>127398908
yes, in the starting options
i believe it should be mentioned in the copypaste too
>>
>>127398908
there's an always-small-floors option in the options '=' which is super handy. However, it can be dangerous at deeper depths because small floors wake up quickly and leave you without safe places to teleport to. Also, some dungeons such as the Orc Caves don't obey because they don't have a mapgen option for it. Only the standard-dungeony-shaped dungeons are affected. Don't forget to disable it when you're going into scary depths for safety purposes.

Also, finding or buying devices that let you detect stairs, map the dungeon, etc will help a bunch with easing exploration.

>>127399080
yeah but if you do it at chargen you can never turn it off. You can still turn it on after chargen, and be able to flip it off and on as you please.

Short answer:
I'm a newbie.
Long answer:
I used ring of fire to deal more damage to those waterniggers. I was going to prove that I can do things with low dexterity, and low EV. I was going muscling armor-wearing huge weapon using, shield wielding fighter of Oki. I was trying to escape after I opened the door, didn't really consider Oki, just tried everything for escape. I was heartily fucked in the first hit down to half my HP. I panicked.

Also, did I skill right?

topkek

People don't pump dex in Crawl because it's unhelpful son
>>
>>127402093
Skills look ok for the most part, barring the whole "no ev means no orb" thing. Your invocations is needlessly low for someone worshipping Okawaru. Its worth investing a paltry amount of experience to get your buffs castable without error. It'll save you a lot of heartache.
>>
>>127402093
>I used ring of fire to deal more damage to those waterniggers.
Unless you were using fire spells to damage them, which you weren't, it was useless.
>I can do things with low dexterity, and low EV
You can.

Wrt skills: people usually get 5-7 Invo with Okawaru because Finesse is good and helpful.

>>127402093
Rings of fire give rC-, and merfolk have ice spells (as you discovered). That was pure error on your part.

Actually, I checked. Since I had stasis I didn't have finesse. Hero didn't really change much with higher invocations, as much as I checked around.

Also, is there a way to create a heavily armored character, still have good evasion, and still win?
>>127402807
Oh, I misunderstood the purpose of a fire ring. I feel quite dumb right now. I knew that, but I still used them, 'cause I sub-consciously equipped them 'cause hurrdurr fire damage hits. Laugh all you will.
>>127402832
I will admit to that. I fucked that up. Well, better luck next time.
Any tips for my heavy-lifting FoFi of Oki? Besides paying more attention to what rings I wear. More like how to do proper evasion and dexterity with what I had. I never know how to balance attributes.
>>
>>127401643
Your ring of fire nullify your ring of rC+. Against merfolk aquamancer, you really need rC+

I really don't remember any dangerous situation where I don't need Teleport.
Probably when I wield vamp battleaxe I don't teleport as much as before, but I'm sure I've teleported in extended.

Press 'd' whenever the game asks you what to levelup

>>
>>127403541
>Warp Rogue.
it's meh though
>>
>>127403114
Invest most if not all of your stat points into dex and wear a lighter armour such as a FDA or IDA once you can find one. Whichever one matches your resists better. Basically you would have invested less fighting, shields and armour for dodging.
>>
>>127403373
Pls go, gfunk is a cunt, and not in the good aussie way either
>>
>>127403749
>>127403114
Oh and if you really want a truly heavy armour character (like CPA) that doesn't have garbage EV, you have to go Chei or demigod. So you could just do that.
>>
>>127403627
I remember playing it a few years ago and having a pretty good time. Shame it's dead, though.
>>
>>127403749
CPA is good though.

>>127403880
That's not true at all.
>>
>>127403541
>>127403580
>>127403749
Sounds like the game is unwinnable unless you just stack dex, and get dodge when you have enough damage.
That kind of sucks. Jeez.
>>127403880
So, the only way I can do a heavy-armor run is demi or Chei. May I know why? I know I'm being spoonfed, but this an interesting development to my knowledge of the game, and my playstyle is going to change drasticly.
>>
>>127404002
This guy knows what he's talking about. CPA is the best armour in the game for most melee characters if you have good resistances already.
>>
>>127404108
>Sounds like the game is unwinnable
You can actually win DCSS with incredibly unoptimal strategy and make that up with good play. It's called gettin gud.
>>
>>127404108
>Sounds like the game is unwinnable unless you just stack dex
That's not true at all. People are recommending it because you're new and it's the optimal choice.
>>
>>127404108
>Sounds like the game is unwinnable unless you just stack dex
No it's not.

>>127404108
>So, the only way I can do a heavy-armor run is demi or Chei.
That guy is memeing on you. Try something like a Minotaur Fighter, you will get enough Str for the heaviest of armours naturally and then you can just pick Dex and also level Dodging and have good EV and great AC.
>>
>>127404108
Heavier armor requires more strength to counteract its encumbrance rating. Demigods and Chei worshipers have the best attributes in the game. The game is beatable without dodge, my only win was a gargoyle with GDA, the Shield of the Gong, and no dodging skill.
>>
>>127404264
>>127404303
>>127404338
>>127404361
Fairnuff. Just the sudden surge of "DEX/DODGE EVERYTHING" was kind of daunting. Thanks for the help, /rlg/.
One more question: Are shields even worth it, if I'm already focusing on dodge and dex?
>>
>>127404789
If you're playing a formicid you better be using a 2h weapon + shield. Otherwise, what's the point of picking the race?
>>
>>127404108
DCSS itself is pretty simple and can be won with a lot of suboptimal playstyles. The easiest way to survive the later game is with a dex oriented character wearing some kind of medium armour. Invested dex and dodging will always put you in the realm of 25+ EV and one of those armours will generally get you to atleast 20 AC. This is also really nice because it doesn't completely cutoff stealth and magic like wearing a heavy armour would.

>>127404789
Bucklers are top fucking tier.
>>
>>127404789
Shields are a third layer of defense and are generally helpful to have. Bucklers are pretty much free defensive stats and you usually want to wear one if you find it, shields take a bit more investment to not hamper your melee and are usually worth it somewhere around midgame, large shields require a lot of investment to not hamper your melee and are usually not worth investing in until after you've gotten a few runes, although sometimes you might want to use them without full skill and take the hit to have the additional SH depending on your character's existing defenses.
>>
>>127375504
You also gets acid immunity but I hope you like grinding forever for *healing*.

Don't play a class that cannot heal itself.
>>
>>127404789
Shields are very good, and formicids can use a 2h weapon and use a shield at the same time.
>>
>>127404789
If you can wear them, shields are always worth it. The only real choice is between using two-handed weapons or not.

Make a brazier from a sheet metal from deconstructing or smashing an overn or locker. Make slings/bindles for survival 1, digging sticks for survival 2, craft seds to survival 3 then make a camp fire drill. Till soil or smash and clean broken window to construction 1. Make an axe, adze then go fell and plank a tree. You can burn 2 2x4's for roughly 2 hours of heat and light with longer with more. And once you put a trunk/cargo carrier on your shopping cart it's easy to pull a whole season worth of wood in 1-2 go's.

Once you get some tape, a welder, a makeshift welder, or a vehicle welder, just make a one tile pull cart with a seat, console, aisle lights, engine, fuel tank, battery and an alternator. You can start it up, let it run to charge, then turn it off and use =the console or aisle lights as a 3x3 light source that lets you craft in an 8x8 square

How do you get past invincibility in PCB ?
Also, is it worth it to get time resistance ?
I have a ring of +11 speed, but equiping it would mean ditching a few resistances, is it worth it ? how fast is too fast ?

Great maul of vice is a hell of a drug too. You could probably hit 99 as a a dragon but you'd have a heck of a time getting at least +10's in each slot. I dunno if the Zul shop stocks them,.

It does but you'd probably need to spend about 600 million in restocks which is something you can't afford as a durrgin.

I was thinking about rings earlier. They are a pretty good class, but they are as all monster races limited with healing.
if you can actually find and absorb jewellery with angelic healing then you'd probably be set for life though.
I remember magic eaters being able to absorb rods of a-healing to cast it with 0% miscast chance, but the chances of grabbing more than one rod without grinding like a madman are slim.

Monks of nature and rune knights still remain the best classes.

But the one ring is actually really good for the serpent fight.

The commit where he was added to the dev list is where the spice rack nickname comes from.

It was either that or retrying the Q who died at the serpent.

Tonberries get that as a fixed drop by killing the master tonberry, so he *WILL* get that.
