Chapter one of the goblin king chronicles
Fist should be first.
%playername% should probably be (a|A)non.
You're correct.
I have 4 hp left. This goblin really wiped the fucking floor with me. I even had Beastly Appendage up at the beginning of the fight
Praise Yred! Rattled be his name! Vampires are for battle! FOR BATTLE!
It gives so little of a shit about my feeble draconian fists it actually healed
Also, I found the culprit, it's wearing a chain mail which makes it fucking invincible to my poor XL4 character
this where we say evoke feet
>didn't even snig the snegs on him
Give him the adder.
He had a hunting sling with sling bullets. He was prepared for every situation
I tried, spawned a ball python which he killed
In the end he dodged my throwing net so I had to drink my Agi and punch harder
;_;7

I get both of those references/spoiler]
Found and oil lamp in IVAN. What is a rare item that i should wish for? i already have a mithril sword and finished the first quest. Also lost my leg but prayed to a god and now have 80! LStr. I can carry everything with me.

Any angband players who can help me find how the fuck to turn on Vi keys?
I can't seem to find it, and numpad is maximum awful

>D:2 goblin so powerful it takes agi and 32 HP to kill it
Legendary.
MfDK feels like MiBe sometimes, but more fun in general.
If Menkaure stops popping up with his buddies I might actually make it to lair some time soon.
Are you playing a version where undead don't crumble? Why wouldn't you go kiku in such a version? Animate skeleton was literally the best spell when skelebros didn't crumble.
Playing 0.15 for death knight shenanigans. Being able to start with Yred takes a lot of the danger out of a lot of the early levels.
I even killed a D:1 Gnoll gank squad at one point, got a nice halberd of freezing.
Ah right on. .15 was bretty gud. Nice job on wrecking the gank squad.
>reassign 4 last skill levels every level
no longer possible unless you go turbo autist mode and leave the dungeon every time you level up, because that can only be done in towns now
there's an amulet of resistance or amulet of elemental resistance or something
not sure about name
but it's a solid choice
you could go amulet of life saving but it doesn't work if you get beheaded (because the amulet then falls off) which happens a lot in IVAN
Staff of Wucad Mu and Amulet of Four Winds make everything easier, although I get both of them far too late in Ziggurat.
I wish I can get them in every game.
More like deep smelf.
From what I heard, that's what you're supposed to do on characters where early levels differ from late ones much. For example, arcane blade.
>Make cure mutation slightly rarer
s-z.org
implying !cmut is even common, sometimes I only get 2-3 in 3 runes game
>remove amulets of resist mutation
>make cure mutation amulets rarer
they're gonna go after my nigga Zin next, aren't they
I feel like that shouldn't be allowed.
>getting mutated
>ever
Mutations aren't relevant in 3 rune games anyhow.
This just means that if you would get 8 Cmut before, you will get 7 Cmut now, or thereabouts.
...
does anyone even actually play mumo anymore
No. We live on with the memory of our shared brotherhood, and the hope that one day, we may.
>We live on
I beg to defer.
Nobody knows you're a mummy when you post on the internet.

>Not ONE PERSON cried fault
On one hand, those sheep are legitimately really dangerous and probably need to be tied to MR or something. On the other hand, walking away from haste/might Dolan is dumb and requires something more.
They just need to be changed so that their sleep ability isn't janky shit that gets cast when there are two of them every 3rd turn and actually needs a "flock" to cast regularly.
The minimum sleep duration is like 50 auts or something ridiculous like that iirc.

Also isn't his name spelled Yredelemnul?
What is the best roguelike monster and why is it the Starcursed Mass? It's not even close tbqhwy

Orb spiders.

Well the lesson here is don't not spawn !rFire in your game. (mind worms were the monolith spawn).
Chei got piety decay now. Feel the pain!

Gross. Why would you do that to yourself?
The Misery of the Dickery.
Because it's much more interesting this way.
hey lads,
what's the "consensus" on 0.18.1?
did the removal-crew go totally ham on the game or is it worthwhile for a semi-noob to upgrade from late 0.17?
I want to get into the game again, but I'm not sure which version to use.
0.10
You get to use 2pak. The amulet changes are kind of lame, but you get to play with new amulets and a lot of quality of life changes to a bunch of gods and new monsters to splat to. In general, the hardest part to get used to is the amulets but I think you'll be quick to realize that they never really added much to the table. (outside of zigs anyway. And rip warding, my lost love). Its worth updating for 2pak alone though. He was something special, and 18 as a whole felt like a great time to do a lot of evocations builds. They've ruined that in trunk.
>did the removal-crew go totally ham on the game
Yes.
>I want to get into the game again, but I'm not sure which version to use.
Either 0.14 if you want some old-school fun or trunk to see the new development.
I recommend winning a game in both so you can decide for yourself what you like.
IMO every version past 15 has been the exact same level of quality, the game has neither improved nor gotten worse. Give it a try since it's all the same.
cheers, I'll check 0.18x and trunk out.
Didn't they already remove Pak? That's what I've read in the last thread at least.
upload it, I can offer the buggy 0.16 with wizmode-Op in return
Old versions are available on SF.
sourceforge.net
Pakellas was in 0.18. He's been removed in 0.19 trunk.
They disabled him until he can be balanced more properly. He probably shouldn't have ever made it into stable, but he is worth an ascension. They've since nerfed everything that enabled him as well. No more bolt wands to recharge and abuse with water, and no more invis wand. Bobs and spiders aren't as good. Rods are back to being rare AF since you can't really acquire them anymore, with some of them removed. Bad feels all around. Old 2pak trunk legitimately felt like a weaker Tome4 character with all the shit they could pull instead of a crawl character. Definitely deserved the nerfing though, the evo build was way too easy and strong to get into.
I play 0.14 online, sorry. Will upload later when I'll get to my desctop.
Oh, and rings of invis and tele are both gone as they were. Same with decks of cards and Xom's chess piece. Man, evocations was nuts.
Why nerf pak but not trog? Doesn't make any sense
Trog needs to exist so that newbies can stay bad at the game for longer.
Uskayaw is an even worse version of this.
No need, it's on the SF as the other user pointed out.
I don't think you can balance 2pak the way you could potentially balance trog. You can't fix 70% infinite paralyze on a whole 3 rune. You essentially had 3 wands that could do the same effect (enslave/confuse/paralyze), so you had a very high chance of getting 1 of them. Not to mention how abusrdly strong bob's, spiders and rods are, and how you'd get them for free. As much as I loved 2pak, he is kind of inherently broken. It doesn't take much to put him over the top, and it can be as simple as having infinite teleports or as degenerate as infinite hastes/HW with rod of shadows and clouds. Trog is busted for different reasons, but I don't think he'd be nearly as good if you just took away the berserker backround.
Most broken thing about 2pak is manaregen imo
Continuing my SpEn run on lantea if anybody wants to watch
crawl.lantea.net:8080
We've already discussed this a ton of times that Trog's only relevance is BiA which TSO does way better and inferior Okawaru gifts. He doesn't need nerfing since he's weak.
I laughed so hard I started coughing.
Everytime I dream it's of nice memes
*nice memes*

>buggy 0.16 with wizmode-Op in return
I'm not sure what this means.
If i want to learn the dark arts of Necromancy, is it better to start as NE AND worship Kiku or is it better to go Monk and start training under Kiku once i get to him?
Monk if you're playing in trunk honestly.
Pain is such an awful way to experience D1.
Now now don't get so upset that the local MiBe has a higher score than your 100k turncount 3 rune """win"""
Start as a Fi and go Yred.
Which background benefits the most from the INFINITE MP of Sif Muna?
Nice """meme""".
The removals background
Probably dragon porn summoners, that's the most mana intensive build.
rest in pasta
Im not even mad, had no loot what so ever and i found like 15 shops
Maximum overfault in the salt zone. Robin BTFO. Crystal guardian bolts check your rF/rC, and can do 75 damage. They can even double zap too. Should have evoked those cute little broccoli feet.
What broccoli feet?
crystal guardians — enchanters worst enemies
you cant melee them, you cant cast shit on them
pure fault
I guess you can't evoke them when you meld your feet away.
there was one version in 0.16 where they fucked up something hardcore; you could drop +1xx attribute/EV/AC rings in them.
naturally, octopussi became quasi-wizmode once you got a couple.
That sounds fun and I am interested in playing it.
This wasn't too long after that double damage glitch either. What a silly time for crawl.
Remember when all the derived undead kept the spells and abilities?
I was hoping hes gonna be asleep as i get to him but o well ownfault
