Ok, this is probably the most ridiculous otabbing spriggan I have ever rolled. I'm literally just a better Vinestalker at this point, and had one of the easiest Spider rune in my life. I thought the early game was gonna fuck me over from lack of arrows (SpHu with a bow, I was theorycrafting some ways to take advantage of spriggan speed + ranged combat and it's weird that spriggans have such a good bow apt so I went with it) but RNG paid off in the end

I TOLD YOU that the uniques were gonna kick Your teeth in didn't I? But you didn't listen.
No matter what, every unique can and will one shot you unless you haste/slow/run/retreat. You have no idea how much damage the black knight does, the orc officer is basically still in the babbymode realm. The knight does 200 damage per slash.

You are right my dear fellow, you are most indeed.

You pumped your stats and gear too much dude anyway. The orcarshal was around if the general was nearby. They spawn together.

He could have just walked away. Or, you know, he could have just took a look at the gear of the second strongest orc in the game from afar, since that is a thing you can do, and buff himself before dying a stupid death.

Something is obviously fucked up with the fountains. Just a few hours ago a guy on the server crashed in a very similar way. Quaffed from a fountain, "water gushes forth! etc. Everella drowns. Segmentation fault, core dumped." Seems I never discovered this since I never quaff from fountains...

>>137576707
it is hard to test a variant when you add features without testing them one at a time

on that note, many role/race combos segfault on being picked, and picking a JedHumMalLaw segfaults and prevents the game from being started again, "Too many hacks running now."

another question or three: should monsters be able to spawn inside walls or is this a trait specific to F? is there a reason why some floor tiles cannot be moved upon even though they have an object on them, but no monster (tested by "F"ighting that tile)?
>>
>>137576175

I found out you can eat spiders on the world map to train endurance, so things are looking up :3
>>
>>137577143
there's a "trap" that prevents you from moving onto its tile i think
>>
>>137577143
oh, so it seems you got one of the old versions that still have the "missingno bug". That one is OS-specific and happens on some Unices but not on others; I should issue a fix that removes this bug once and for all, but for the time being, try recompiling with the MISSINGNORANGE define set to 2000 (config.h). The default of 10000 can occasionally cause segfaults on initialization.

Monsters spawning in walls: feature, but happens more often with wallwalking monsters (some F can do so).

Tiles not being walkable despite looking like they should be: Try 's'earching while next to one. You'll probably find a "super nupesell nix area", which is a "trap" that simply prevents the player from moving onto it. :)

Still trying to figure out that fountain crash though.

Now, at least one of the potential fountain quaffing segfaults is fixed: https://github.com/SLASHEM-Extended/SLASHEM-Extended/commit/f2ca9b74b5338cb9263ae6d4af1623ef3f6279ec

yeah guys, I'm not really like, asking for advice, even though I know it makes you feel good about yourself or something, I'm mainly just posting these screens and little descriptions of what happened to provide entertainment and such, and it's nice that you want to help me, but you need to realize that you and everyone else on the planet are incapable of helping me. no one can help me because I flat out just don't listen to other people or feel any respect towards any person

so you know it's fine if you want to tell your own stories or play off the jokes I'm telling and stuff, but I don't really need you in any intellectual capacity, if anything you're just sort of irritating when you try to help
>>
>>137579459
Other fountain quaffing "segfault" also resolved; it wasn't a segfault at all, but the Amy stupidly assumed it was. In reality, she tried to recover a game that was still in progress...

Err. Anyway. Fountains should no longer segfault now. Sorry for the trouble; sometimes I'm really stupid...

I think someone that's not ponyposter won IVAN some years ago but it was an old version and he ate used the ommel cerum exploit
then again cloning sagas in clivan gives you 100 int so it's the same exploit
we should make a server so people can't savescum and use new Ivan for it so people can't use exploits but that's literally autistic

>>137581070
Alright first off I may be a manchild but I am NOT autistic. A real autistic person wouldn't have savescummed and accepted defeat. Second, this was just a suggestion. And third, holy shit calm down dude. You're gonna pop a vessel or something.
>>
>>137581204
>I am NOT autistic
A person who wasn't autistic would attach no emotional response to whether or not strangers on the internet think they're autistic, and perhaps silently wonder how they or anyone else would even be sure if they were or weren't.

They then might wonder what autism even actually means and why people are so silly.
>>
>>137581196
Well, I *think * he means that he doesn't "want" people to make a server just so people can play without the temptation of savescumming or using exploits. Which in itself is kind of ridiculous and would eventually lead to the same kind of shitposting we get when someone posts an offline crawl win and says that they must have savescummed.
But honestly? I think he really just wanted to stir up shit using a notoriously easy to pick target. Not that I mind, but I do dislike when we get these crazy fits of shitposting out of nowhere. It ruins the quality of the thread.

Anyway how's the crawl circus animals fork? It looks pretty weird.

It was glorious. Shit was so hard. Every time I got even up to level 13 or so it felt like a glorious victory.

Now I win and it's like "meh, that wasn't too hard". Even doing ziggurats or wandering Pan (oh wait, they just removed Pan, didn't they, can't have anything that those speedrunners won't use) is hardly life-threatening.

And the current array of options for player characters might be unique compared to other RLs, but a lot of them just feel wierd for the sake of being wierd.

Nah, I took a break from Crawl for at least a year, probably close to two, having never managed to get the orb because [refuses to read spoilers].

Decided to download it again a year or so ago and my second run got me the orb despite being totally out of practice. And then I kept getting it, regularly and consistently. It wasn't the same game that would kick my ass with a grin: most of the dick moves were gone, dying from starvation was something you'd have to purposefully be trying to accomplish, even as a spriggan, and the enemies were easier with a more gradual difficulty curve instead of the sudden difficulty spikes that would catch a newbie off guard which you'd find at certain points in earlier versions.

Go read the devblog. Underneath every post for at least the past year are 10-20 replies begging them to not cut still more things from the game, demanding a reason for why the latest batch of cuts is happening, and pleading for them to quit making it easier.

Where is the danger in a regular 3 rune DCSS game now? I've only been playing for a week after a 2 year break, and everything seems to have been fucking babby-proofed.

Absolutely no fear of fire and ice, just rock right in and keep all my emergency scrolls/pots.

Oklob plant in view? Used to be a fucking no-go for me, but now, I just go barrel-assing in and tab the fuck out of it, even on frail mages.

I get that item destruction, corrosion, and permanent malmutation were all kinda shitty to deal with, but at least they made me just a little bit smarter.

>>137586028
Anon pls. Modern Sigmund is easy to shut down with just about any wand, potion, or scroll you might have. Gone are the days of desperately burning a wand dry against him and watching him inexorably advance to your doom.

>to be entirely honest, with the changed rules in consumable destruction and consumable weight--before, fire could burn your scrolls and ice could shatter your potions, and a huge pile of consumables would add up weight fast, so managing your stashes was a LOT more strategic--I don't know why they don't just make everything into wands because hey, they sure love to simplify and there's barely any difference as it stands

I'm also complaining about the simplification, and was doing so prior to that post.

If you consistently have people asking the devs to quit making the game easier over the course of a lengthy period of time, complaining that the game has gotten less difficult with recent versions, that would suggest that there might indeed be a lessening in the difficulty of the game. It's not just me and another few anons here, a lot of people have seen this and dislike it.

>MuMo for it to be hard

The godless/armorless meme conduct /rlg/ likes to throw around, perhaps. A regular MuMo with a god isn't a difficult choice by any means.
>>
>>137586623
Yes but cutting content != reducing difficulty. Cutting can make a game easier, harder, or have 0 effect on the difficulty. You should probably have been more specifiic.

That said, do you play crawl anymore? If so, what version?

I finally threw in the towel when I saw the 0.16 changelog (believe it was that one, maybe I'm thinking of the wrong version). Among other things, the switch to everything being done as square-only rather than circular (for spells and other such things) really stuck in my craw as their rationale when met with a lot of flak about it was "well it makes the game simpler!" As well, it was continuing a trend I'd been following for many months of removal, simplification, and lowering the difficulty. At a certain point that has already been reached, it feels dishonest to call the game Dungeon Crawl.

Crawl was the only RL I was playing at the time, and I actually popped in the thread to see about finding one that was similar to the old Crawl: more difficulty, much more complexity.

Won't argue with you that Mummies are a harder race than basically anything else you could choose that's not gimping yourself with a strange playstyle.

However, I firmly believe that with thoughtful playing based on what's been given to you by the time you find an altar or your preferred god, MuMo is not a terribly hard choice. The two * in piety can be very strong depending on your god of choice, and there's nothing stopping you from using that rare, but possible, badass whip/dagger of electrocution you found instead of your crumbling, bandaged fists as a MuMo.

On DDA, if I stick a solar panel on a vehicle tile that has a roof on it, will the solar panel still charge like normal? Or will the panel be "under' the roof tile, preventing it from working? I don't have enough panels to do it yet, but I'm wondering if I'm able to stick solar panels all over the top of the RV i've fixed up.

And somewhat related, how do funnels work on vehicles? Is it like a funnel on the ground where it has to be installed above a water tank to transfer rainwater into it, or is it like a solar panel and I can just stick as many I want wherever I want and they just fill the tank? And like my initial question, I'd like to know if funnels work with roof tiles or if the roof blocks it.

it's probably the aggressive back-handed tendencies of large corporations that seek to appropriate and commodify every existing thing for a population that doesn't actually want to purchase anything and grows increasingly less materialistic and more cosmopolitan in the midst of an information singularity, disarming the old methods of coercion such as nationalism, conformity, and dick-waving.

Listen I know my posting gets out of hand, but what happened to ADOM is that I get angry because I used to love the game. Hell, I still think it's good.
But jsut like Qud became a piece of shit after they saw they could make money out of sproggiwood and then shove an electrified rod up Qud's ass to make it just and say it was resuscitated, ADOM was a good game that had done its course and then was brought back from the land of the dead with the simple intention of make as much money he could out of it.

I'm mad at that. I'm sorry I keep shitting up the threads for this reason, it just makes me really really really mad.
Sorry.

I hate abstractions upon the simulation more than anything else to be honest

there needs to be a game that has brutal, merciless math bound to the laws of thermodynamics, completely hidden from the player as they desperately try to navigate their bumbling rogue through a realistic dungeon without the aid of any sort of menus or text other than what you can have your dude literally read with his eyeballs in game.

just you, your controller, and a dude, when you open your inventory you have to actually watch him stop, drop his pack, and go about actually fucking organizing it with his actual hands like some sort of brain destroying mash up of qwop and an old sierra adventure game

a. because art imitates life
b. because life should imitate good art
c. the things people want to escape from in life are things like consequences, mortality, the limitations of their own flesh, their disabilities and disorders and weaknesses and instabilities

nobody wants to not have to eat things that taste good, because that is great

they'll see their dude eating bread with butter and be like you know I should have some bread and butter, and then they'll do things they can't do in real life like making a strange noise to draw attention, and hiding around a darkened corner to stab a goblin in the neck

what you think is that they only want to do things that exceed the boundaries of their reality in order to escape, but they actually need a deeper level of verisimilitude to draw them into a more intricate fantasy, woven into a truly believable reality, all abstraction stripped away aside from the interface of the player and the game itself.

>>137609792
Caves of Qud, but it's really not your standard post-apocalyptic setting though.
>>
>>137609792
It's not that bad, I'm almost 99% sure there is a mod to remove the meme shit or at there very least there used to be for older versions, admittedly I haven't played it in awhile so I wouldn't know if there is one for the current version.

The mutation and cybernetic systems are pretty good as well as the crafting elements, so it's at least worth giving it a go for those alone.

CoQ is great and it calls itself post apocalyptic, but it's still low fantasy at the same time. It's more like an adventure than it is survival as food and water is extremely easy to come by unless you want to fuck around in a specific biome. There are two versions, the free one that is much older and the new one which is on steam and pay to play, they are both the same game except the pay version just has more stuff and is general;y more polished. I've yet to play the new one so idk if it's worth it.

>>137658791
Android Rune Knights actually are very powerful.

Androids level up by wearing expensive gear, and Rune Knights can both enchant their gear (raising the value and thus the level of the Android) and sell enchanted gear at full price (as opposed to the 99% discount that is automatically inscribed on the enchanted gear that mages of Craft can produce).

Also, Androids can spam rockets, one of the only ways to produce enough damage-per-turn to kill the Serpent, and Rune Knights also get lots of neat spells (including Manastorm) as they level up.

They're very strong, yes, but I'm not certain they're very fun.

>>137670909
Other anons in this thread have used whips of thievery as endgame-tier weapons. The disarm is good plus whips are bugged to never break.

You can buff up that one whip until it's at least +5 and has a good base material and eventually clone it for dual wielding.

Do you have the belt of levitation? Because if not you need all the fire resistance you can get to avoid dying to land mines.

Also be wary that mines can blow up wands in your inventory.

Looks like they fixed that.
>>
>>137671480
disarm is extremely good, whips never break, and they have a really high size modifier and "roundness" stat (used for blocking attacks,) making it pretty much a foregone conclusion that if you're dual wielding, you can hardly do better than X and a WoT

it also takes only 20 int to harden a whip of thievery into phoenix feather, which is a pretty substantial boost

two-handed weapons are really strong though, so if you happen to find mjolak or something, it's pretty acceptable as an end game weapon once you enchant and harden it

a hasted ommel tooth mace isn't as good as a slowed one, hasting it only makes it rot faster (it can also be eaten by dog type monsters, this is good for a pet but not so useful for yourself, since getting polycontrol on a canine body to stay in it is really difficult and unlikely)
>>
>>137674941
neat. you can still make it pretty damn durable by changing it into spider silk or golden eagle feather

that requires a lot of int though, 50 for GEF and even more for larger items

I think spider silk is just 40 int
>>

also angel hair at 35 int or phoenix feather at 20 int

looks like they added acid shields and the Holy Saga to the newest version of vanilla IVAN

you can also mirror SoCMs and SoHMs now

I think mirroring and cloning are functionally the same aside from duration

You can still abuse eating poison monsters on the world map to avoid vomiting and train endurance/agility/Lstr

you can't wish for any ommel stuff, but you can use wishes on holy bananas instead

I guess I should test out trap abuse in towns too

I don't however, know what the INT requirements for turning something into ommel cerumen are, as, at least in wizmode, you seem to be able to change anything into anything regardless of INT

maybe it's not even possible to turn something into ommel cerumen normally? but I doubt that

I see you're wizmoding, my good fellow!
No, you cannot wish for ommel cerumen things anymore. That's only for wizmode testing which in itself is a really weird thing to do, since you want to test wizmode to see if things are possible in the game.
You cam also wish for artifacts In wizmode, which you can't do in the regular game. Basically think about wizmode as removing an invisible limit other than giving you infinite wizard powers. It's a little counter intuitive but it works well with the fact that people need to test out everything in that mode and having a hidden block would be a problem.

There's a reason it's guaranteed in the starting town. It's also good to travel the overlap from the startown to attnam without having to go through the caves so you can keep the big carnivorous plant alive so you can both train your dexterity and whip skill on the greater carnivorous plants that she ends up spawning, which are even stronger than vesana herself. Luckily they don't spawn unless you spend a ludicrous amount of time there.

just checked, you can absolutely wish for holy bananas

I'm guessing you can also SoCM ommel cerumen, though, obviously, you have to use up a precious SoCM on it, and I don't know what the int requirement actually is
>>
>>137696519
confirmed that you cannot SoCM things into ommel cerumen outside of wizard mode

I guess I should start actually playing now
>>
>>137696519
You can wish for holy bananas but you cannot SOCM into ommel cerumen as you cannot socm stuff into gases. You can do both of those things in wizmode. That's why it's wizmode.
They removed every single exploit you can think of in new IVAN. Sagas don't give INT and WIS, can't kickrob bananas in startyown, whips break, can't kickrob the librarian, can't wish for ommel cerumen stuff and you cannot charm the guards if the cathedral.

You can still
1) kill ikiros with traps triggered by someone else
2) kill petrus with mustard gas albeit that's useless unless you want to skip the actual fight with him and get the chaos god ending
3) vomit on the sumo square to break his legs after luring him out (even though that's trickier unless you have a renewable food source)
That's it.
>>
>>137697252
cerumen is ear wax anon, it's a solid
>>
Basically the best earlygame tips now are these
>breeze through UT until vesana, go around until the blue bastards show up and kill two bare handed to get enough unarmed skill to kill the sumo wrestler without his legs. It is a good thing to have seges or mellis cover your ass if you want to do this though. If you don't it will be extremely tricky.
>go to attnam without killing vesana (you can also that by teleporting her or praying to Silva so that vesana gets displaced by the rocks) and sell the booze in the catacombs to the shop for easy cash. If you'd found a mine and some grenades, kill ikiros for RF stuff. Sell his stuff to the town.
>go back to startytown, kill the shopkeeper for his book of mellis. Never look back until you can grab an angel bro.
>when you have an angel watching your ass, go back to startytown and kick serious ass. Grab decos' armor and his beautiful whips, sell his loot to the starting town to get some cash for scrolls.
>You are now more or less ready to take down the frog.

That's it. It's the best way to get ready fast (2/3 days at worst) in IVAN. None of these passages are mandatory. They just ease up things a lot.
>>
>>137697603
Yeah, I'm just saying hat it's one of the banned things. Like gasses and artifacts.
>>
>>137697850
can't you wish for artifacts that don't have a fixed placement

IVAN looks okay, but the fact that I have to manually track the time between prayers and praying too early breaks the mood of god is tedious. Is praying every 8 hours (or what was the minimal time) required for normal game? Or it's reserved "break it in the best possible way" game?

And no, 3 hours is enough between prayers. If you wanna stay extra safe, 3 and 1 minute.

I'm doing a Mummy Summoner right now. Took me quite a few tries, but I rolled one that found a +3 frost spear, a +3 ring of ev and a +2 ring of prot really early on. Between that and a bunch of luck, i've managed to make it to lair.

I've never really gotten this far with a hybrid, only with (mostly) pure casters or fighters, and a necromancer once.

I'm worshipping sif muna obviously. Anyone have any advice? I've leveled polearms and dodging and fighting a fair bit, but not sure where to branch out from here. I found a book of annihilations and book of dreams so far.

But that's wrong. Summoners are hitdudes with buddies they can call up on demand, not mages who deal indirect damage. Okawaru is actually a good choice here.

Look for victory posts on the DCSS forums by XxSu characters; hopefully they have a character dump linked which will really be helpful for you.
Character dumps contain:
>record of what they did (sans movement)
>how they skilled, down to which XL they gained certain skill levels at
>how they geared
and if you know all of that you can do your best to imitate them.

I wish I had saved a rant that someone wrote for me when I asked almost exactly the same question. It had a lot of good reasons for not going Sif Muna/advice on how to skill.
>>
>>137711027
Guardian golem inner flames itself at the drop of a hat, and will definitely explode itself right next to you. Its never worth using in a proper sense. Stick with spire + ice beasts. You should probably improve your defenses and melee more, and move up to menagerie or another spell that is worth it later. You want to have some kind of game for when your mob inevitably gets abjured, but you don't really get enough experience for both blasting and melee/defenses. The latter is safer, albeit far more boring and potentially weaker.

I'd say with mummy summoner of sif muna, just go straight summoning. Don't invest in anything else, because mummies have shit apts and summon kills get you 1/2 XP on top of that, so if you try to hybrid you'll fall behind the difficulty curve, because your summon's can't kill shit and your spear can't kill shit, and you don't have enough XP to level both.

See the water on the map? That's where the imp originally appeared. You may notice it's mostly unexplored, because I literally ran away the moment the imp showed up. He actually hit me with a bolt once, but I rested, which is why my health is near max in the screenshot. I don't know where the few points of damage came from, maybe it was from not fully healing before a monster showed up. The imp then stumbled upon me on a very bad moment.

Same way you skill anyone else.
You just have more skills to spread XP over and thus your skilling needs to be more precise. On a MiBe, putting an extra two points into your weapon skill before you need to swap to fighting/dodging/armour might not hurt. On a HuSk, you need to be more on-the-ball with skill distributions.

He'd been starving for his art for the whole development of ADoM and in the process made a enormous contribution to the genre and videogames in general. He did that for almost a decade. When you put that much work into creating something, and then give it away for free, it is entirely your right to try to make a profit off it, ESPECIALLY If you're still trying to improve it and not just selling the same thing that a informed customer could just download for free. And he's still giving it for free, just without the extra bugfixes and interface improvements.

I have no idea how the people in this general can function in the real world if they get so mad about people selling stuff they made.

ADoM's always been closed source. I'd prefer if most things were open source, but if someone doesn't want to share his property, then you can't force him to give it to you without committing a crime.

Open source doesn't always work for videogames, besides. Even in roguelikes. A lot of people don't like the current state of crawl or cata DDA, but nobody bothers forking those mountains of spaghetti code.

>>137770692
People can disagree. That doesn't make either side morally wrong. Biskup's whole reasoning is a) He doesn't want people to codedive and b) He just doesn't want people to use his code.

Does that make him less generous than the Nethack/Angband team? Yes. Does that make him egotistical? Yes, but not more than is expected of someone in the videogame industry, just more than old roguelike players are accustomed to. Does that make him greedy? Probably not, since he shared the game for free in the first place and it took him about 20 years to make his mind about a paid version

Same thing goes for the PR agency, it's completely normal for a company with any public presence.

Swamp dragon armour is pretty decent. I'd much rather have an IDA on that character, but its pretty decent as is.

If the boots are your sole source of SInv you definitely want those.

I'd wager the resistances aren't worth losing that much EV, but in any case you'd go from invulnerable to nigh-invulnerable and resistant to a lot of stuff.

Yes, since it's your endgame armor you should use your enchant scrolls on that
>>
>>137779079
Alright, thanks. I'm going with the swamp dragon armor because it's the lightest one i have, and enchanting it to the max brought me to 32/32, which i quite like. I'm gonna keep the regen boots on swap because why the fuck not, i love having six pips of regen

Even if we do the wrong things we must not consider them to be acceptable for to do so is to abandon rationality. Do the wrong things if you have to, but never forget the meaning of all things.

Within this context: If all motives are selfish, and that anon's criticism was that Biskup was acting for the purpose of reward by selling his game (being selfish, since otherwise the chance that he'd release the source code would at least exist within the realm of reason), then how exactly is Biskup acting worse than anyone else, taking in mind that at wide it wouldn't be considered unusual or wrong for a game developer to profit from his game?

He should make a new game that can actually be worth money without it being offensive to to his predecessors to do so.
>>
>>137786216
And I suppose the metric to determine whether it's worth money is your own subjective taste, because in terms of work put into it or critical reception it's definitely worth it. This is one of the only places where ADoM is considered bad, and that's largely due to people not liking Biskup or memes rather than there being anything seriously wrong with the game.
>>
>>137786789
All taste is subjective and critical reception means nothing. The reason that it's not worth money is the fact that it's a roguelike and the fact that it was never made to a professional standard of quality nor was that ever a goal from the outset. To try and backpeddle now and make it into a product makes two things abundantly clear; he has no fresh ideas to work on, and he wants money so he's jumping on the bandwagon when the consumer doesn't even want that wagon to be there. That fucker is just sitting on his own foot because other people made it look acceptable, rather than doing something of value.
>>
>>137789196
>All taste is subjective
I don't know why you would think I argued otherwise.
>and critical reception means nothing
So the assessment of a single clearly biased and resentful person should be trusted above that of the general audience, simply because you say so?
>he reason that it's not worth money is the fact that it's a roguelike
Which is completely meaningless regarding whether it should be sold or not
> it was never made to a professional standard of quality
Which you have no way of knowing, and its quality is subjective in any case
>or was that ever a goal from the outset
Which is irrelevant
> To try and backpeddle now and make it into a product makes two things abundantly clear; he has no fresh ideas to work on
Again irrelevant since the game itself exists and is currently being sold
> and he wants money so he's jumping on the bandwagon when the consumer doesn't even want that wagon to be there
Who is the consumer, what is this bandwagon, how do you know the consumer doesn't want the bandwagon to be there, and if the public in general has an interest in not paying for games that are part of the "bandwagon", why did the game have a succesful launch in steam?

Nice crit bro. And here goes the daily edain splat.

My first time making it to the swamps. I have only enough spell levels to memorize either Ice Form or Flight, which is more useful?
>>
>>137806602

Good Sil.
>>
>>137806602
just quaff herbs until you get healing
>>
>>137806714
ice form lets you float in water anyways

if you're a transmuter or whatever and you plan on ice-punching things, just stick with ice form

flight is real useful in shoals but doesn't matter too much in swamp IMO

absolutely, there's no way you can cast in this armor without absurd strength or sturdy frame or really high strength+vehumet or wizardry modifiers or something

27 strength and 46 intelligence on their own would in no way be sufficient even with maxed skill levels

try closer to 50 or 60 strength

You can't get mutated in lich form nerds

this is trunk also, newrot can be cured like 20 points with one heal wounds charge, and I have like 56 scrolls of recharging.

rCorr is meaningless, nothing that can corrode you comes with anything dangerous, I was at 72 corr and still wasn't in any extreme danger, you can just read blink, which I also have 50+ of, then zap rods or DoS till the ghost moths are gone

not that that even matters! I never run out of magic with vehumet, I can just spam firestorm literally as long as there are enemies on screen to blast

Do not be afraid to keep heroism+finesse up at all times during the more intense encounters, piety isn't hard to get back
Don't be stingy with those enchant scrolls, use two on the gloves and the other two on the shield, it's unlikely you'll find a better ego item instead of just a randart

it's mostly people from the nuclear throne general

They absorbed the Nuclear Throne and Binding of Isaac generals. If you read the thread previous to the one currently up and search for "rlg" you can see them sperging out in their natural habitat.
