I was about to post asking when all the scary shit starts appearing in Sil, having only really faced a bunch of weak orcs and wolves so far, and one lone troll who was sorta-tough. Then I went down a level and two Trolls burst down one of the doors. At least they haven't noticed me yet...

The first two trolls weren't so bad, but there were more lurking around. Then I got caught in a hall by one and half a dozen orcs lead by a captain appeared from nowhere and trapped me. Took out the troll and attempted to flee the orcs, but with 1 HP left I took my chances on the best-sounding mysterious "golden potion" and got poisoned and die.

My only comfort is that I didn't give the orcs the satisfaction of landing the killing blow.

This is my first time having a dog.
I went to pillage a small settlement of six people, then this happened. He came unleashed automatically somehow when I engaged my first peasant, and sprinted North for some reason where he met this fate with a rookie hunter who beat his ass with an axe.
Anyway, so while I waited for him to be able to walk again, I went to kill the settlement's farm animals. And after I knocked one unconscious, Putrid spawned out of nowhere atop of its body, and I accidentally hit him in the head instead.
Now he does nothing but attempt to flee. I cannot speak to him anymore and he won't eat any food I give him.
Is he going to be this way forever? He hasn't attacked yet, but I assume he will once he heals.

>>146834879
On that note, I think I'll be more wary of the bribing ability in future Gozag runs. Did that gold drain FAST in the later areas, and I'm still not exactly sure how I lost all my allies in the Vaults. I did know I lost several in the Depths by attacking an ally's summoned demon, and that was before the bribe was over (I got a juggernaut and a few demons afterwards). I'm not sure why it let me attack it, but in hindsight I could have at least paid better attention.

Broadswords don't have rapid attack, which increases effective dps by ~33% for non-crit attacks. Item browser doesn't show that.
Also, rapier has piercing damage which has slightly better skill scaling and much better crit damage scaling.

>>146840684
Not really. The enemies spawn for the most part according to your level so sometimes it's best to intentionally not kill enemies so you can stay at a lower level. Even if you do want to kill everything there's only a finite number of floors.

It's far less grindy than a *band

yeah, but that's just the same effect you get when you use a teleporter, which is literally nothing and nobody found out until someone got randomly teleported once after using it twenty times in a row.

Maces and Flails every day.

The primary problem, and most of what makes M&F so dominant, is the fact that M&Fs, regular daggers, and various axes are 90% of the weapon spawns, regardless of level or branch.

This is why Longblades, staves, ranged weapons, and spears are not viable, generally.

Me and another anon had a discussion about axes v MF the other day, and the results were inconclusive.

Axes:
>higher base damage on Executioner's Axe than Great Mace
>Cleave

MF:
>Huge XP savings through early/mid/late game.
>Starting war axe reaches mindelay at skill level 16, starting flail reaches mindelay at skill 14, decent branded whip reaches mindelay at
>Executioner's Axe reaches mindelay at 26, Great Mace reaches mindelay at 20.


I personally think that the cleave and ultimately higher base damage is well worth the extra skill investment, and is precisely the reason for the extra skill investment, but that's harder to argue than a simple comparison of hard numbers.

So I agree that axes are almost always better, but I'm just saying arguments do exist for other weapon classes.

>>146843880
Well he's not wrong. How many times have you found a crossbow, harbalest or longbow just lying on the ground? It's common knowledge that lajatangs are incredibly unlikely to spawn, and good luck finding a good polearm before vaults
Longblades are slightly more common because there's many of them, but the spawn rates are still skewed towards maces/axes anyway

i hope there isn't a limit to how many dogs you can have cause if i can i'll eventually have 30 and just unleash them all on bears or have them wipe out entire villages while i stay behind and craft fucking torches..

I wrote a Steam review for UnReal World out of 4 AM boredom. It's too long to post in the comment box here, and too long to get it all in a screenshot.

Hopefully I save some poor neet from wasting a precious $11 allowance on this game. $11 is a lot of money to me, I'd rather have got The Last Blade 2.

>>146848129
The Steam version is $11, and has upgrades the free one does not, namely in the graphical department. Entirely new sprites.
That sounded good to me, and I expected to invest years from my initial reactions to the free version, so I bought it up of course.

No reason to get a job right now.

I don't need money. There's maybe six things I'd buy if I had some, and none of them are in any way necessary, and would all probably be major disappoints like UnReal World was anyway.

I just pirate movies. You should watch "I Stand Alone". French film. And by the same director, "Irreversible", though expect the last 30-40 minutes to be shit. The first hour is so great that it makes up for it.

The craters? I'm still not sure myself.

Can someone please redpill me on rune sword in poschengband? From description I recognize either stormbringer or mournblade.

It's vampiric and has (-50) [-50, -50].

>>146854398
It gets stronger (numbers and brands) as you kill things (especially uniques). If it gets big enough you'll pick up aggravate and AFC. Make sure you have enough +dam to actually be able to do damage before you put it on, since you'll need a scroll of mundanity to get it off.

Generally not considered worth it, I think. In 5.0.0 it starts out as (-10, -10) with no AC penalty.

>>146854398
>From description I recognize either stormbringer or mournblade.
Those are both blades of chaos iirc. Rune swords are a unique item that are all permanently cursed and gain power as you kill things with them. Generally I don't think they're worth even attempting to use on anything but the hittiest of hitdudes.

>No RL with tons of equipment, weight limit, and no static AC damage reductions

>resume game

Every time.

How does speed work? Examine showed he was +13 and I was +19 but he still double breathed on me.

>>146855350
>static AC damage reductions
What do you mean by this?
>>146855364
You are faster than him, however:
I believe monsters get +3 to -3 speed randomly when they are spawned. I don't know whether this affects uniques though.
Monsters randomly gain additional energy, or lose additional energy. (Speed affects how much energy you gain each gameturn- every player turn is many game turns) Every action requires energy
You may have taken actions which require more or less energy than a normal move recently, if more- he gets to move more times, if less, he may have built up energy and when you took a slower action, he might have had enough built up to move twice.

>>146854980
Well, it's description pretty much matched these two blades in books, so I guessed.

I'm pretty sure the point of his advice was not to raise your life rating but to potentially get you a higher internal con cap. See the table I posted above, higher con is worth far more than a few extra points in your life rating.

I'm kicking myself now. This run has been so great so far and now I've just wasted skill points and experience on an ability I'll probably never use.

>>146865632
You can easily make up the experience in the end game by getting 19 melee instead of 20, or something similar.

>>146865767
Yeah, I'm just more annoyed that it's an ability that I won't make use of. I've never found throwing weapons to be particularly effective, especially compared to a good bow. Also I'm still rather early in this run so spending the points in a different ability would've been much more handy.

You suck, are retarded, and do not accept own fault. This is a bad combination.
Have a nice day.

you were on the floor of ONE OF THE MOST DANGEROUS MONSTERS IN THE ENTIRE GAME and knew he was SOMEWHERE ABOUT and used a BLIND TELEPORT TO FOLLOW ANOTHER VERY DANGEROUS MONSTER

shockingly, you found TWO dangerous monsters! And died!

I mean, I feel bad for you and all, but it was definitely fault. You can always just find the monster that teleported away by walking around detecting, to keep control of the situation and make sure you can re-engage it in destroyed terrain

I guess I did fault.

I failed all of you.

I love when someone is in fault denial and rlg shits all over them

>>146869593
The real thing to learn from this is to raise your con so you don't explode when something unresistable hits you.

Well, and consider eating so you aren't fainting against three top-tier endgame threats.

Didn't Chris make the Olympians because everything else wasn't hard enough? Or did someone else do that.

>>146870612
The only failure in a roguelike is to fail to learn from mistakes.

He made the game because Angband wasn't hard enough

Then he made shitty challenge classes because PCB wasn't hard enough

And then he added ridiculous dungeons and monsters because it still wasn't hard enough for him

>>146870612
You've posted PCB here quite a bit recently so you should already know that ~600 HP is not sustainable especially for a melee class in end-game PCB.

Can you guys help me understand this? I didn't want to just only pump my CON later on because I thought my CHA would my fighting useless since I'd get feared.
>>146870925
My warriors and monks didn't have a genocide though, I thought I was safe honestly especially since I had Jack's cloak for telepathy.

I don't even play PCB, I just know enough about RLs to know obvious fault when I see it.

>>146871113
What kind of liferating did you have?

>>146871113
often you're able to wear by happenstance multiple sources of rFear, especially if you're remembering to use !Heroism in most fights. Having multiple rFear is as good or better than high charisma, though the charisma helps. Basically for each pip of rFear, you get an extra attempt to save, using your charisma score.

Also lategame !Boldness is really good, it is fear immunity.

Of course, 3 olympians wailing on you would fear almost anybody other than a berserker.

Note: When offered +3 slaying or the third pip of MR, always take the third pip. Even if you're a one eyed birdman.

Never gets old.

>>146871468
Kek. This is why stealth is the most vital skill

>>146871468

It's kind of pointless now since the Abyss is easy to get out of compared to the earlier ver. regardless on what floor you were banished as long you don't make silly mistakes in a few turns.

Nigga, I have 108 HP. Abyss is still an extremely dangerous place. I got spit out into Abyss:2 and I can potentially meet nexus crabs, A liches, normal liches, cancer stars, screaming starmasses, bone dragons and so on. Very bad situation even though I have the tools to survive it. I could try to cut my way out, but I think searching for the exit is the safer choice.

>>146872414
Why do so many bras fit in CDDA?
It's entirely unrealistic.
Bras should be divided into (), (almost fits), (fits), with the rarity of (fits) and (almost fits) scaling inversely with the new bust stat, and the rarity division between (fits) and (almost fits) being 10/90%. At C36 (let's just say it's the most common until someone checks the stats for wherever in USA CDDA is set), 75% of found bras will not fit.
This would add a great deal to my immersion.

why does underwear exist in cataclysm

Literally free AC early game.

>>146873421
Because a big part of DDA is the sim aspect.

>Get frail from a nexokek, already have rC as a benmut
>Quaff cmut immediately
>You feel more vulnerable to cold. The potion had a very clean taste.
Why is this ok?

>>146873950
DDA isn't a simulation of anything. Remove the underwear.

Because mutations are fun xD
