Since the roller is gone, any chance of being able to choose your starting stat limits as well? The ones that are set up at the start of the game from 18/70 to 18/130 and you can only see those if you drink a potion of self knowledge. I'm getting real tired of drinking new life potions etc since I get 18/130 INT and WIS on warriors and since the stat limits balance themselves, 6 points are lost from the other 4 stats, meaning I could for example get a 18/70 on STR and CON and lose 6 points on both because a fuck you invisible roll at the start of the game and I have no way of knowing that until I find a potion of self knowledge. Please remove this shit.

if it's just 1-2 stats with shitty caps you can generally get them to 220 with items anyways

i prioritize a high liferating over good max stats, even con, since you can make up for low max con with one +3con item but you can't make up for low liferating

No, see, that kind of joke is only funny if the answer is clearly available: It's a way of making fun of newfriends who don't have the brain cells to look at, say, the crawl or elona wiki before asking questions. However, because *bandgeeks aren't capable of documenting even the simplest datum regarding character classes (who knew sorcerer spellpower was based on charisma? It's not as if it's explicated anywhere!) that sort of joke lacks effectiveness.

This is probably only happening because he launched a kickstarter and specifically marketed it as being for a game that was the spiritual successor to DoomRL.

Wow, instagibbed by a death sword.

the death swords always have the same damage, it's not dependent on their drop

I'm new to roguelikes and dcss, can someone explain to me what the attack field means on dcss wiki. For example ogre is 17 yet in wiki it says they deal "20-30 damage" on the same page. http://crawl.chaosforge.org/Ogre_(monster)
>>
>>161607383
Your first lesson is that you should never take the wiki's as fact. Just 'suggestions'.
>>
>>161607471
Still, I have 0 experience or knowledge of the monsters in the game. It's better than nothing, however having a good idea of what kind of damage an enemy I encounter can deal would be nice, but I don't understand what that attack column means, obviously they don't deal a constant dmg, there is some dice roll that happens. Any help would be appreciated.
>>
>>161607383
the monster's attack is added to the damage stat from its weapon

ogres often carry Giant Spiked Clubs which deal 22 damage, leading to a max possible damage of 39

but also the wiki is shitty and very often out of date because the owners have the retarded policy of not allowing anonymous edits and not letting people create accounts
>>
>>161607597
All you should grasp from that page is what an ogre is, and that it hits kinda hard. The actual damage rolls will be irrelevant to you at this point.

For now, just understand that they can gib you if you're not wearing armor and are a smaller race.
>>
>>161607893
>anon thinks anyone knows what he's talking about.
>>
>>161607750
ok, so attack is a dice roll? So enemies with weapons is weapon base dmg + attack roll. And if the enemy is like a dragon with a claw attack of 15, it would just be a d15 roll period for damage then?
>>
>>161607954
I accidentally posted in the wrong thread.

:)
>>
>>161608020
actually the base damage is a dice roll too

a monster with 5 base damage and a 6 damage weapon does either d11 damage or d5+d6, i don't remember which

Depends on the enemy. Again, don't worry about it so much. Just play the game.

your first attack out of "hiding" is a sneak attack that can potentially do massive bonus damage or potentially instakill shit

generally instead of standing next to things and repeatedly bumping them it's better to move in and out of hiding to get the maximum number of stabs

as a ninja sneak attack shit is probably the MAJORITY of your damage. never ever ever have perm light items equipped unless you have some permanent darkness to counter it out

Why?

That doesn't seem to correlate to me. If I can't get seeds for them, what would making them grow faster matter?
>>
>>161614319
The faster broccoli, oats, beans, etc. mature the faster you can harvest them, collect the seeds, and replant, refertilize and reharvest for more seeds. This is in contrast to buckwheat, wild veggies, wild herbs, dandelions, etc where you can both harvest to get crops and seed then craft the crops into seed to quadruple your seed stock.

It's nice for when you gotta go hump it for a couple days away from home. desu, I say just roll with the least overhead so you spend the most time actually playing the game. Foraging and slingshotting small game will let you keep socking away a little permafood at a time.

Buckwheat's your main. You can ramp to thousands of seeds lightning fast, cook it raw for 50 nutrition or have an NPC help you grind it for 200 flour every 2 hours. You get around 40 days of food from a 10x10 plot of buckwheat. Grow a little dandelion for a couple jugs of tea to stay healthy, marijuana for joints and brownies,. Once you have a can sealer or foodco buddy you can grow some wild veg, dandelions, and mushrooms for jars or cans of soups. Garlic works as a salt substitute until you find a swamp to take on tanks of saltwater.

At some point, you can grow a bunch of berries to fruit wine into vinegar. That gives ya booze for the tipsy +1 str, vinegar for preserving and batteries.You'll get yeast as a byproduct for bread. You can grow vodka for bandages, aid kits, hard alcohol preservation, and ethanol crafts. If you don't have fungals/triffids near you can grow canola for a couple jugs of cooking oil. Rhubarb has the best crop to dehydrated fruit ratio if you want to stock up. Hallucinogenic mushrooms are another source of free +morale if you're chill with eventually finding out a hulk is real. If you don't want to go the lye and berries route, you can tap maple trees for sap and sugar beets for syrup to spam cookies and shit.

like your winrate but a better indicator of skill because if your character can make it to lair you're practically guaranteed a win after that point, ignoring suicides and lazy play since DCSS is a borefest after early game which makes people want to kill themselves literally and figuratively (in-game)

>>
>>161621340
It got nerfed a lot over time, like everything else that was useful.
>>
>>161621723
If you can make it to lair consistently and often, you have all the right skills to continue onward to beat the rest of the game. Those skills can be applied to every branch. Everything else just depends on how spoiled or bored you are. Everyone talks about how tedious the game is, which they use as an excuse (rightfully) to go for the bare minimum of 3 runes instead of all 15 runes, or to excuse really stupid deaths like tabbing to facilitate suicide or expired flight over deep water.

So that's basically the situation in every floor of Crawl and not just lair:1 right? Except it's deadlier the further you go. Your rate at getting 3 runes is a good indication of skill

Cause you break them down into their cap tiers and just plug the mon recall max hp into it.
tl;dr, ADOM/Nethack mentality is cancer
>>
>>161628796
This is a very good idea. Have something like:

Max Possible Damage (Full HP): 1000
Damage (current HP): 500
Actual Damage (w/ resists) : 250
>>
>>161628048
Breath damage is based on current monster hp. For generic elemental ones it is 1/4 of hp and caps at 900.
Here's a table of sorts:

>1/3 HP
Nexus / Time: max 150 dmg
Gravity: max 200 dmg
Mana: max 250 dmg

>1/4 HP
Fire / Elec / Cold / Acid: max 900 dmg

>1/5 HP
Poison: max 600 dmg
Storm Winds: max 300 dmg

>1/6 HP
Light / Dark / Conf: max 400 dmg
Sound: max 450 dmg
Chaos: max 600 dmg
Disenchantment / shards: max 500 dmg
Plasma: max 200 dmg

>Other:
Toxic Waste: 10d6 ( *2 if monster casts powerfully )

I went to the Icky Caves real quick to get on the recall list, then went back to the starter town (arriving to the south of town). I then used the "travel to" key so I could hit up the stores faster.

I really hate the fact that a lot of things on crawl like resists are fixed that it always always always encourages branching to other spellschools in order to not have a hard time. Why is everyone in Gehenna resistant to fire and why are all of their skills or their state of having no spells exactly the same all throughout? Can't this certain random Balrug who happened to be a scholar in Gehenna know Firestorm but is not resistant at all to fire? Can't this random Red Devil be speed 8 but knows Recall and Might Other? Can't this random Hell Sentinel in Dis happened to be born defective and cannot cast a single spell except for Haste Other while also having only MR1? What about in Pandemonium, specifically those Cacodemons. Can't this random Cacodemon found nearby the rune vault of glowing rune happened to be a Captain Cacodemon which happened to act as fast as a killer bee but is susceptible/not immune to poison? What about this random Orb of Fire that filled its remaining resistances in cold (rC+++) in exchange for losing its elec resistance? And most importantly, why are every single relevant demon either poison resistant or immune in the first place?

I get that uniformity has to be maintained as much as possible in games not only to roguelikes but too much of it is actually boring, uninteresting and encourages dumb repetitive behavior.
>>
>>161634725
It's good for a while then dies because neither its damage or effect damage do enough
>>
>>161634763
bitch you're not supposed to use the same spells forever. a tabber has to find good weapons and a caster has to find good spells. there's no reason to branch out to different spell schools once you have icestorm
>>
>>161634763
You get IMB/sphere/OoD as part of whatever spellshit you're doing and most schools have partially irresistible or non-elemental. Examine fatigue and difficulty of both getting all their tards to agree to a glyph system and getting the sprites as well probably.Semi-Random spellsets are bad enough. Pan lords prove it's not even all that interesting of a concept anyway. Like the proc genned creatures in spore it sounds better than it is. I do think champion monsters ala diablo with a glow/different glyph color would be a good way to spice up the game though
>>
>>161634882

>Pan lords prove it's not even all that interesting of a concept anyway

A lot of people already got killed by random Panlords in their orbruns despite only appearing one by one. You can only say they're uninteresting because you know there is always a single Panlord residing in a Pandemonium floor along with some cannon fodders equipped with spells that you already know how to deal with so the Panlord can't really do much. The only single time they appear unexpectedly is during orbruns too.

Well to be honest Panlords are not really the issue here, even a level 16 no resists felid with statueform can decimate a couple of panlords just fine. The lack of unexpected encounters and abundance of fixed bullshit among common mobs should get reworked real hard so it can get interesting for once.

Shut the fuck up, turn based combat doesn't make a game roguelike or not roguelike.

It has more roguelike traits than any others, it is a roguelike.

I dunno man, the way the game works is through farming, and if there were dungeons in-realm (which would be cool as fuck, admittedly) there would be no way to make them farmable without risking killing people when the dungeon needs to reset.

Personally I think that the shatters should have been an in-realm dungeon. Realm events are fun, but I really want to pilfer a structure without having to go through a loading screen.

Something weird just happened.
I started a lab start in CDDA, but actually spawned innawoods with no lab in sight.
Is it some sort of a bug or just some strange RNG?
>>
>>161664441
It doesn't seem to do that, though.
It'd be no trouble if staying drunk 24/7 actually countered the side effects, but the only thing it seems to work on is the morale penalty.
>>
>>161664961
Probably means map couldn't generate a suitable lab start.
>>
>>161664961
Stable or experimental?

Stable does that.
Experimental shouldn't, though it apparently can place you inside a car near a lab, because it searches for a space "inside" and car counts.

far cry is a zombie survival game

it has all the typical mechanics like shooting badguys, using consumables to heal urself, etc

>>
>>161664961
>>161665037
That's often happened to me when I tried the cabin start. There isn't a lab on the map to place you, so it defaults on the middle of nowhere.
Either gen a new world or walk long enough to generate some new terrain. (I don't know how long is long enough.)

3rd time creating character in a lab start, still no lab.
I think it has something to do with a error message about overmap specials before starting or something. Whether it is caused by cranking cities to 6, or by too many mods, or both, I'm not really sure.
Maybe it's just a shitty world RNG, but it would suck if it is actually one of these reasons, because locating a mod that causes it would be a hassle, and it probably would be a fun one. And big cities are fun too.
>>
>>161666569
>cranking cities to 6
Nah, I have cities set to 9, space to 3, and I have half a dozen labs.

They were changed a lot recently
>>
>>161665818
Obviously its a lot more feature bloated now, but there is a lot of decent content. Personally I feel like I've beaten the game (one of every character maxed) and I still play constantly to grind out white bags (rare equipment drops in them at a .1%-1% rate, depending on the item).

It isn't fun for everyone but I thought you guys may be the audience, but I guess most of this thread is too busy defining the genre to a T instead of enjoying games.

>>161666569
Wait, did you create new world every time or not?

Are you generating a new world each time? I do lab starts often and those kinds of errors hardly happen to me, if they do, a new world fixes it.
I'm playing on the latest stable version as well.

Electrohack is straightforward (if somewhat luck reliant) assuming you start with the skills to craft it.

My "best" one involved destroying the card reader with the electrohack, spending like two weeks grinding up to crafting dynamite and then failing to actually destroy a wall before running out of soap, and finally shoving an integrated toolset into my guy with like 30+% fail as a last resort so I could craft an electric jackhammer.

because it has completely different gameplay and is in a completely different genre, anon

the general mechanics between e.g. poschengband or sil or brogue or crawl are mostly similar and people who play one are at least familiar with the others

nobody in /rlg/ plays or posts about twin-stick shooters, or any games that are even similar to twin-stick shooters

There's enough difference between what many here consider roguelikes and what are not roguelikes. It's a schism that only gets bigger as the issue is debated. There's no reason not to have separate generals for these different types of games. Both can be lively by themselves, not fast, but alive.

I've never tried it like that. I usually just employ explosives. It's much simpler for me.

Nice, were you out of options at that point? In two weeks I doubt you'd have any food left.

>>161668897
It's much closer to those games than a traditional roguelike.

>>161669216
>also cdda but it isn't a roguelike
I'm personally not even sure what I'd call it. It's got a lot of major elements of a roguelike game, but it's melded with an open world-sandbox-survival thing, which is pretty different from more linear, goal-oriented roguelikes.

>>161669706
This. As long as it's grid-based, it doesn't matter how that's represented.
>>
>>161667868

>>161670314

well go ask in the indie game thread

there are no rotmg players in /rlg/ for reasons that should be obvious by now (i.e., it not being a roguelike)
also everyone who plays roguelikes suffers from crippling austim, cripplying alcoholism or both so they dont have the hand-eye-coordination for real time games
>>
>>161669756
>My point is that it has every single trait of a roguelike except turn based combat
Which is a major factor in determining what a roguelike is. RotMG is also missing a grid- based system, which is equal in importance to turn-based combat.
>The combat method shouldn't even be a factor
It's a roguelikes defining trait.

>the point of the games are the difficulty and the complexity
Which mainly comes from its turn-and-grid-based mechanics.

like back when you could play pcb as a Blood Mage of Life (lmao i spend hp to cast spells and i cast spells that fully heal my hp) winning that combo was not skill-based nor hardcore nor difficult at all

being hard is a common feature of roguelikes (if it isn't hard to win then permadeath doesn't add fuckall to replay value and people will get bored), but it is not a necessary one
>>
>>161670793
It has a grid based system, its just that players and monsters have free movement while abilities and other things are constricted to the tile system

Basically the only thing it is missing is turn based combat. Is there really no room for the game to be discussed here? There are no other generals to post in (I have already tried, nobody sticks to it) because people cry like pussies when they die and lose their stuff.

You people keep telling me to go to generals I ALREADY WENT TO and was told to fuck off from. That's why I'm pissed and that's why I'm not fucking off from this one.

>It has a grid based system, its just that players and monsters have free movement
That's just it. Players and other entities are not confined in a equally-spaced grid. Superficially, it looks grid-like, but it doesn't function like a grid would in a roguelike.

>Is there really no room for the game to be discussed here?
There is no room. That's why I suggest starting up another roguelite general, as it is a much better fit for RotMG. Plus, I'd have a place to talk about FTL whenever I decided to get back into it. Going to /v/ might work as well.

the only reason the original devs made rogue turn based is because it would've been too complex to program and use a shit ton of resources at the time

Yes. If the summons do all the damage you get 50% xp.

If the summons do 50% of the damage you get 75% xp.

If the summons do 2% of the damage (pretty much just being your meatshields) you get 99% of the xp.

Any tips for how to save a run that feels lost? I'm playing DCSS as a DD Artificer of 2pak and while he's been very good to me, I'm on Snake and feel like I'm falling further and further behind the power curve. The monsters I summon with Rod of Shadows carry me through so far, but I'm leveling slowly and I'm losing health faster than I can recharge my MP to recharge my wand of HW. I just got lucky with a pull of Elixer from a deck of defense, so I got a stay of execution for now.

Yeah it's totally fine. It's pretty effective even. You need to take advantage of slowing terrain because it's pretty slow though. Definitely be wearing armor and have something in a holster/belt/scabbard/boot to draw quickly if you ever fuck up.

Vehumet gives you mp on kill for those dank shatters and helps your fail rate
Zin is a budget Chei that lets you imprison dangerous shit and use a screenwide holy word+mass confusion
Chei gives you obscene stats to do whatever the fuck you want, slow enemies, screenwide AoE and ghetto teleports
Xom mutates your body into a randart and often helps you in combat with allies, buff pots, and flinging you clear before you die.

why does random effects wands seemingly ALWAYS do beneficial things for enemies and terrible TERRIBLE things to myself
>>
>>161695090
Because your lord and Savior Xommus Christ has deemed it so. Now get more spellpower and just splatter that invisible berserk jigaboo with enough zaps to get bolts.

i successfully got sif muna from a faded altar

just suicided by DDAr because it was fucking miserable to play

I don't know where I went wrong but I felt like I was constantly clawing to progress only to slide back

Should I have invested more into my melee? Ditched the shields? fuck I'm mad

The worst part is that, after holding onto my supercharge for a long ass time waiting for an appropriate rod, I decided to use it on my wand of HW, since the wiki (i know, I know) told me it should increase it to 32 charges. It went up to 13. Should have known better than to trust the wiki.
>>
>>161695090
it's (very) useful early game if enemies are 3+ steps away and you're on top of stairs

i don't know why artificer is considered a challenge background. it's pretty good

Bad skills and bad items that don't make up for it. Gladiator and fighter is better in every way for an evocations run.

early game enslave with 5-10 evo is stupid powerful, it is certainly a better tool than the nets or might pot, the other two are also useful

they're useful when your 2 (two) int minotaur gets int drained once, or for any other combo

>>161695660
Just hit them in the face with your weapon.

>>161695802
You quaff it for about half of an enhancer of added power. It's pretty good

>using a +4 longsword
you retard just drop the shield for the 2sword and come back to it when you DO find a dblade
>>
>>161695802
if you aren't using offensive spells, just drop them
>>
>>161696664
I made a point of only using one handers. If I was trying to be optimal I would have ditched the longsword a long time ago

EARLY SHOP ARTIFACT BINGO

I'm a Deep Dwarf Artificer with 0 exp in any weapon skill. I have enough money to buy ONE of these. Take your pick, folks! Operators are standing by!

>>161698462
Must have been a phantom post, blinking away like that!
>>
>>161698159
I always wondered how that worked out, from a lore perspective. If you worship a god and get the orb, what the fuck will the god do once you leave the dungeon?

We should all just worship Jiyva desu. The only god that truly cares for you.
>>
>>161698503
Whip
>>
>>161698503
m&f crosstrains with axes which you want to use as a dorf anyways

my vote's on flail because a whip without elec brand is a kind of shitty weapon.

whip is better if you plan to stay at 0skill for a while though
>>
>>161698242
Lead it on with a rope? No idea cause I don't play it.

>>161698503
Flail, it's a decent base and it crosstrains
>>
>>161698738
>>161698651

I'll go with whip, then. I'm sick of axes, and I'm gonna do shields anyway.
>>
>>161698503
>0 skill
you have enough to buy the randart whip, then the war axe or other whip if it's trash. so do that

>>161698901
Protip: alt + printscreen allows you to capture the window you are currently in without grabbing the whole screen.
>>
>>161698778
then why did you play a race whose best apt is axes

>>
>>161699126
deep dwarf is a gimmick race, you have to play around their gimmick

sp has +3 and a different gimmick, or you could just ko for a "normal" race with good evo
>>
>>161699126
protip: if you are in win 7+, search the start menu for "snipping tool" instead of using printscreen like a animal
>>
>>161699189
1 vs 0 is basically nothing, m&f is fine on a DD, a +9 whip is certainly better than a +0 hand axe
>>
>>161699284
thanks
