Will updating my one month old version of Cata break the savegames?

2nd for Quazloud
Who /memecharacter/ here?
I'm stuck in my dorms due to a severe storm so I'm doing this guy right now. I would've done tengu but eh, they die too fast..
Luis Long
Supposedly you can still load 0.A games in the experimentals.
So it should work unless someone accidentally the code.
Jose Rivera
All my characters are themed. I can't play any other way.
I've got Karasu the TeWz who flys above his army of summons, striking at foes with his polearm and air magicks.
Crysta the SpEn of Fedhas, here to get the orb so she can save her forest from Hexxus.
Batty Koda the VpEn is there too. He got separated from Crysta.
Maneaster is a GrFi of Ashenzari trying to collect souls.
Centurio X-I the FoEE was sick of people stealing his Shaman's Cloak and came to the dungeon to obtain power.
Muromi-san is a MfIE and Suu is a DsTm. I haven't bothered to think up their two sentence backstory yet.
and Rooty Tooty McShooty is a HEHu who is fucking sick of dying and running out of arrows holy fuck you can't do ranged only no magic classes in this game.
Jackson Murphy
looks like I'm not allowed to die now
Mason Moore
i can feel the splat approaching
Dylan Flores
To that user asking about IA last thread: Cool Headed, Dextrous, Melee or Ranged II, and Strong Back are some of the first traits I usually take on a War Vet.
You also usually don't want to use a pitchfork or sledgehammer without a rank in a melee skill, or if you are an occultist for the darkbolt synergy. +3 Machete is the best weapon for every class IMO.
Julian Gray
Damn. I'm not even sure this character was actually possible. By the time I hit Lair 1, everything everywhere was chasing me always. I couldn't restore my mana fast enough to deal with the threats.
Andrew Rogers
>Lblades with fencer gloves >Plutonium sword Jesus christ
Alexander Anderson
check them resistances my friend!
Samuel Jenkins
>Tired of splatting >Roll up a MiBe for the first time in months >Finish lair in 50 minutes Jesus i forgot how strong this is What's a good time to abandon trog? Before vaults?
Lincoln Wilson
Hmmm... how exactly did I arrive at this killhole with Chei speed? I really can't remember but I'm sure it was traumatizing.
Dylan Jackson
before extended
Benjamin Rivera
I'm running an Epic Enchanter in Quest For The Unicorn. Currently, I'm abusing CHA to buy cheap stuff, enchant it, and sell it for more than I bought it. My plan is to buy a Spear of Spruce and blast some shmucks out in the wilderness until level 7, when I can buy Medium Health, enchant all my stuff with it, and feel safe enough to enter dungeon 1.
Joshua Morris
do boots negate the negative stealth effect from cloven feet or just the aux attack?
What game be this? (And is it available in nonASCII format?)
Lucas Sullivan
Rumor is that these two received Zin's wrath for having a love more pure than Zin's. The twins couldn't be reached for commentary, but are understandably salty about the whole situation.
I did it all for the puns, I regret nothing.
Thomas Lee
see >(And is it available in nonASCII format?) Yes, it's available in non-ASCII but it takes like 5 seconds to load the screen every time it needs to be redrawn (which is often) so I wouldn't recommend it.
Gabriel Lewis
>tfw you don't realize the game name was already mentioned because of how silly it is.
Thanks. I'll take a look and see if I can stand either version. The color coding looks decent enough that I may be able to handle the ascii.
Brody Taylor
Was monster generation in Crawl tweaked recently? It seems like there are more spawns per 100 turns than there used to be.
Gavin Peterson
>Really attack while wielding your 20 stones? No you jackass, I just want to get closer so I can get within casting range of Sandblast.
On that note, I wish there were a way to specify a starting skill training configuration. I'm shit at this game and one of the more annoying things about dying is having to set all that shit back up every time I want to try again.
Parker Roberts
there is
Justin Gutierrez
>Really attack barehanded? Jesus fuck that rat has no hp left, just let me poke it with a finger once you don't have to ask for confirmation every single fucking time
Brandon Morris
just say yes so it doesn't bother you again
Blake Thompson
>skill training ""configuration"" On turn 1 you press m then press shift+(letter of Earth Magic). Then train that to 5. Then you press m, then shift+(letter of conjurations). Then train that to 3-5 depending on Apt.
Samuel Butler
I know that already, but I'd like not to have to bring up the m menu at all.
Xavier Robinson
Well there's a script you can use to bring up the skills menu automatically on turn one. I suppose you could extend it to assign a skill based on your class, but I don't know how.
Adam Taylor
now THIS is what I call a fun game where you aren't allowed to ?blink/tele out like a scaredy cat
Jack Campbell
I hope you die. Like, right now.
Levi Rivera
>tfw vampiric handaxe
would it be worth enchanting it a bit? how far could it carry me?
Hunter Myers
lmao no, dying with a Step From Time and /HW is just not allowed
Jacob Harris
Nigger you have like three different escape options AND some potions.
Gavin Carter
>fall ass backwards into artifacts >play like complete shit >almost die like 5 times >still win
Fuck you.
Thomas Young
Here's hoping he fucks up on the way back out.
Wyatt Howard
Living the dream. I miss when we could quadzap even if it was hideously overpowered and degenrate. It was just such an immersive feature.
Jonathan Diaz
no
Oliver Wright
>golden rune of zot >isn't golden
Sebastian Parker
It is, undiscovered runes are just given the same placeholder sprite
Carter Cox
You finally showed your dirty cat face at last
Isaiah White
What game is this?
Joshua Barnes
literally walk away: the videogame also known as dungeon crawl stone soup
Michael Gray
done, one of my dreams finally came true
Easton Brooks
Fuck you and die.
Ethan Anderson
What have you against this dude?
Colton Stewart
Oh I didn't recognize it in ASCII, looks so much different.
Nathan Gonzalez
>diesel as fuck character >fuckton of good artifacts >still fucks up and almost dies numerous times despite this
He doesn't deserve to win.
Landon Martinez
jealous
Aiden Butler
winning with a FoFi^Chie is not tough dude
especially if you have the plutonium sword and fencer's gloves, jesus
Jack White
so post your win then u jelly as fuck
Aaron Torres
Most actual threats in this game aren't riposte-able user. Most notable are Iron Giants and Hell Sentinels
Eli Davis
The HUD is the part that looks the most similar.
Ryder Moore
Any Elona+ vets give me tips what do now that I've mostly finished NT?
I'm clearing dungeons for plat and medals, eating food for potential and stats, completing quests and trying to raise all my skills to 60. And I'm capturing little girls and farming AP at lvl 50+ dungeons for speed. My long term game is cycling gods for their rewards so I can hit the ST quests with good gear, skills, stats, and high speed.
Easton Powell
Do I continue on with a straight-forward OpTm build? Or so I fuck it and worship Quazloud to try to become the loudest, shieldiest, Octopode I can be?
Noah Garcia
>69 average stats at 124 hours
you sure like taking it easy huh
Mason Mitchell
And I fucked up my image.
Caleb Thomas
More or less nailed it? Keep your potentials up, invest, keep stocking books to spam buffs to level them. watch your invested black market for good buys. Especially the #####+ resist magic that you can shuffle material for another resist. I dunno if the unmangled pasta survived but dig through it and any nested pastebins.
You're getting up to the point where you can bear the magic guild leader to teleport the guard away and go use the book scribe.
Hudson Gutierrez
Stop being a salty faggot and post your own wins, hater
NO BULLY
Nolan Price
Old character from 1.41, all I did was harvest quests thinking I needed to grind money for certain things. Didn't even attempt bosses till last week. Is that bad?
Evan Martin
Just because another user posts like a faggot, doesn't mean you have to descend to his level or even respond. Just ignore it.
Daniel Long
Man my copy must be in a shitty mood today...
I ran away from Menkaure and ran into Natasha, I splatted 2 turns after this screenshot, when i slayed Natasha, chugged Might, and died.
I'm a patient man but fuck me man sometimes the RNG just says "Fuck you today", i swear. I'm the same dude who had 5 ghosts in 5 floors and Urug/Nergalle at the same time. Why does every floor have to have some faggot monster i have to run away from for five floors now? I think i'm switching back to .13 for a while
Henry Nguyen
Crawl getting harder with each successive version confirmed
Aiden Cooper
>my copy Do you displace your negative emotions to a splinter personality? You should stop mixing between 1st and 3rd person in that case. It's confusing. I hope your copy feels better later.
Kevin Johnson
I was 400 hours into an elona run back in like .16. Never beat south tyris or even the tower of fire. Just farmed, fished and did jobs. Comf as fug up until it crashed and the save got borked.
Ryan Robinson
>unidentified scrolls, potions, AND two rings
Unid is as good as not having them at all.
>Hurr what if I get some mutations
better that than taking fat mummy dick
Gabriel Perez
Don't get me wrong, it's good to take it easy since Elona is such a nonsense grinding autism simulator but it should have some limits
Cameron Lopez
>Long thin line of exploration from the only stair he knows >Probably made a bunch of noise or something else did too If you blame it on the RNG instead of taking responsibility you'll never improve.
John Bailey
That randart name entry actually predates the video by about 2 years.
Yeah. You should be doing all the jobs cause as your fame rises you get more money per job until you start getting 2,3,4,5+ plat per job. The money lets you buy, invest, buy and enchant better gear, consumables and spell stock which lets you dunk on dungeons. You'll eventually quaff up 7 league boots and run cargo in addition to diving easy dungeons on the way to/back for even more dosh. It becomes a runaway train if you keep at it.
Ethan Richardson
It's also from an english phrase "too many cooks in the kitchen spoils the broth."
I haven't seen the video.
Joshua Murphy
>It's also from an english phrase "too many cooks in the kitchen spoils the broth." Of course, but who the fuck references an ancient saying as a meme?
Tyler Ward
He probably doesn't know the saying and thinks the video made it up was the implication.
Jace Young
OK let me rephrase
Proper playing of this game is sometimes really repetitive and annoying. I'm tired of getting to Lair once for every 19 times i get raped by asshole posion monsters or boss gangbangs. I also think it's annoying that 99% of creatures in the dungeon auto-target you and just proceed to fuck you up. And then they just hang out where you left them. And if you're a scrub, every time you splat, you leave a ghost that fucks you up later on, because they always appear before you're ready for them. Oh boy, ANOTHER monster i have to run from until ????
I love this game but it's frustrating as fuck sometimes.
Ayden Nguyen
Fair, I totally understand
Gavin Richardson
you are very bad
Luke Sanchez
Yeah, wow, explore around your stairs and pay attention to loud noises, evocation, spell noise then explore in chucks pulling away from unexplored zones to avoid adds so you don't get fucking rocked. So laborious. I know, I'll just run alond the map edge, get cut off, git dunked on and play the early game all over again. Cause nothing is more repititive and annoying than playing smart one time so it's best to just splat incessantly.
Just spam draconian, hill orc, or ogre anything. You can streak dozens of those to lair with no problem.
Joshua Nguyen
>priest smites me 5 times in a row Come the fuck on man. I survived, but there should really be a limit or something.
Henry Edwards
All I hate about ghosts is that they're usually stronger than the actual character that died.
Thomas Cox
As a DECo once I get my spells down to 1% failure chance and 0 hunger what skills do I concentrate on for the end game?
I assume its a mix of Invocations, Fighting, Dodging and Evocations?
Oh, I didn't know, is the plat reward tied to a formula? I figured doing a bunch of quests quickly in yowyn and doubling back to palmia and repeating was the best way to raise it, once I get my performance to 30
Juan Adams
Deep Elf Cocksucker?
Jack Price
someone messaged me on xtahua, didn't read it, i just saw "1 new message" when leaving cause tired as shit (which you could have guessed from casting confuse with 2% until mp pool was gone) you're welcome to continue if you want to, whoever it was
Andrew Moore
>DECo
concentrate on becoming a decoration
Jaxson Fisher
>usually which situations are they not stronger? only thing i can think of is stairs
Nicholas Clark
you have been
smitten
Angel Powell
Just keep raising your fame doing as many jobs as you can handle.Eventually you unlock harder jobs with a higher plat reward and your regular jobs slowly get harder then pay more plat. you don't really have to go out of your way just do all the jobs you can whenever you can.
Robert Myers
>focusing on getting to 0hunger fault
Parker Jenkins
>DECj
>Cocksucker If it gets my question answered, then sure
William Cox
>Fighting, Dodging, Evocations
none of those
Blake Gomez
don't worry about hunger
you can train conj beyond the point necessary for spell success because it also improves damage, but you might have more success just going fighting/dodging/etc until you have higher-level spells available
Brandon Brown
>troll earth elementalists dont start with a potion of lig shit game 0/10
Colton Rivera
>Trolls don't get instantly petrified when they leave the dungeon shit game 10/10
Ryan Cruz
Hunger is largely irrelevant. Butcher whatever you can and eat permafood if it looks iffy since corpse saccs aren't really a thing anymore. Thanks devs!
Your goals are mostly get a L4-5+ damage spell with enough power to kill a hydra in ~4 casts Raise a defense according to apts so you don't implode in a light frogging unless you're gonna go glass cannon Get more spellpower and a little more defense and minor buffs Then decide if you're gonna use evocables and the crystal ball/staff of energy, haste, your gods invocs, a melee weapon or launcher to help supplement your blasting. Win your 5-rune
