first for amy

Could you really run an android on lamp oil? Or do they need batteries of some kind?

Well you can generate electricity by burning fuel...

yeah I've tried a few force trainers and their spells mostly seem like sortof bad offense that requires annoying Improve Force to have any respectable front-loaded damage, but doing so uses basically all of your mana.

The early levitation spell is nice at least for accessing some dungeons

i like androids

Fuck off Amy.

amy is a goddess and we are lucky to have her

Crawl babby here.

Will a shield fuck with my riposte rate?

Very indirectly it will lower it, it's not worth worrying about if you are already using shields or worth not using a buckler while you are using a 1H sword.

Shielding occurs before dodges, so it will mess with riposting.

Yes but SH lowers their total chance to activate over time as you block more attacks during combat so I think using shields with the goal of minimizing "initial" physical damage in case your EV doesn't work is still very relevant. The way SH affects riposte could be illustrated with an inverse exponential graph in which as more turns pass, the lesser its impact. Riposte has 33% chance to activate along with the chance of EV to work so SH's average influence for riposte to not work would even be lower than this

I see. So the chain of events is SH -> EV -> riposte -> AC.

Is there a hard cap on how many blocks/ripostes you get per turn?

No.

>Find One Ring
>Equip Helmet of Ares
I am dealing berserker damage now.

I wouldn't know about SH but dodge and riposte are basically the same being limitless; riposte just has twice lower chance than plain dodging to activate.

Good evening, rlg. What are we splatting tonight?

The good old 3353.

Ah, a classic.

you get a penalty to SH for each block beyond the first, and IIRC you can only riposte each monster once per turn (before that change people were hilariously octuple-riposting hydras to death)

best feeling
imagine if you were a berserker with those though

so yeah, rage mage is somewhat frustrating due to massive AC penalties and nostealth

level 28 at the moment

there is literally nothing wrong with playing an elf in Sil

Haven't splatted yet!

>great wings of shadow

Oh boy, here we go again

Belegwath is OC for Sil though.

Who has had their respect for Tolkien rekindled by *band games?

Here.

Doesn't really make sense except for Sil because they're all so lore-breaking.

rekt

I do enjoy being able to teleport,. destruct and genocide, though.

Holy shit.

why the FUCK is the player view so huge in C:DDA? I still can't see it all even fullscreened in 1920x1080

because humans can spot things from very far away

in other words:
because the devs are dumb and implement things that are really shitty gameplay for the sake of realism even though they completely ignore realism in many other ways

>it's an "Amy wins her own fork again and makes an OP with her own win because she can't stand being ignored" episode

what pcb combo would Aku be
DCSS probably demigod transmuter or something

possessor with GWACL body

arigatou, user~

Well,. that was brief.

I'm gonna play a demigod of Hephaestus mauler

Here's the dump. Not gonna submit it to ladder since I don't wanna mess up PCB's ladder. You have really little control over the dumps, which is kinda annoying.

pastebin.com/7u7rxEC3

Yeah. If I wanted to make it faster, I'd probably have to just boost player to 50, give him some ok starting gear and let him go down from 90 ironman-style.

Getting guarantee on hammer is good, but too bad Hephaestus is kinda poop by himself.
The two feats can make up a lot, though.

why hephaestus?
his hammer is only 30lbs so its not like it makes a good mauler weapon anyways

actually i havent played mauler since they were reworked to have 3 blows
i think they're less dependent on weapon weight now?
but anyways there are a ton of big heavy weapons that you have increased drop chance for, like Typhoeus and Ymir's swords

>this isn't like what I like
>therefore it is retarded dumb doodoohead poo
>oh and it is like this objectively

any new sweet crawl games in the past couple months?

I like DCSS, ToME, and Elona+ the most

it is pretty big dice with all the best slays and brands and some decent stats

>sleep in a town I'm looting
>there's a minefield pretty close to my house
>mfw I keep getting woken up by explosions because zombies are retarded

>implying cata ISN'T dumb doodoohead poo
have you played the game

maulers get huge inherent bonuses to dice just from wielding heavy shit though
you want something over 50-80lb for the full bonuses IIRC

half the time it's just players pulling shopping carts

he was a warrior not a mauler you silly goose
it's also really good parentage for clubmasters

oh wait disregard, I didn't realize there was a new character mauler starting perhaps.

yeah other guy don't do that, thet hammer truly is not good for maulers.

That minefield saved my life once because I lured a chicken walker into it, getting killed by it felt like pottery.

Why are you playing roguelikes instead of games more your speed, such as free MMO, FIFA or candy crush?

Why not?

Because you lack the taste and skills required to develop an opinion on the subject and so are only capable of spewing memes.

>playing video games at all
i just watch anime and shitpost

I'm so bad, please share some of your proskills ;___;

Dont be mean and a bully! Calm down..

>playing in nightmare for the first time
>first time using the embers of rage dlc
>open up tinker town
>go there at level 5
>level 35 spiders with 200% movement speed rip me a new one

wooow how was I supposed to know that?

I just watch Power Rangers and shitpost

But as you can see by the OP pic we encourage vegan memes

The bullying stops now.

Rolling.

Bullying shitters who shittalk games they don't like is an universally preferred behavior.
Rolling

Is there a torrent for farlands?
If not, it should be removed from the list. It is jewish to recommend shekelware in open source games general.

But being skilled at roguelites is nothing to be proud of...

Tell me about Dynahack
Why does it wear the meme?

Does it buy into muh minimalism memes or does it have actual fun in it?

What is your reaction when this happens?

>Yesterday, a couple changes were made to the god that I have strongly argued against. While I don't mind any of this, my wake up call came yesterday when I realized that changes had been made without me realizing at all (I was checking !messages in ##crawl-dev every day since I live on a different timezone, and nobody sent me a ping before this patch). Again, I'm not trying to express anger at the devs for not "respecting my design", which would be a shit attitude to have, but realizing that no matter how much time I spend, and how strongly I argue, I don't have control over the idea anymore, and on the flipside no responsibility for watching over it with the same degree of involvement. If I had been asked before these changes were made, maybe I would've felt compelled to remain in the conversation, but at the moment I don't feel like I can keep up, especially when I'm asleep through most of the live discussion.

That sounds pretty shitty, but it could be just different people working on things, not realizing things are "taken", and failing to coordinate because of that.
Happens pretty often if there is no hitler micromanaging everything with iron fist.

This is the future you chose.

>I need you to guard this position

>turn 360 degrees and walk away

Honestly, I'd rather have the Amy shill her interface rape fork than non-rl bullshit like tum pedoshit or "x isn't a roguelike because it has cats".

>back to safety
Even google knows tavern is shit

Well technically, yes.
I mean we did make another thread but we stayed in this one.

It's fine as long as we don't go back to the ancient ways of "posting the win in the OP"

i bought a book of song in poschengband but i cant actually study it

im a cyclops paladin whats the deal here

Got back into ToME given the Possessor addition. Sure is fun, but I totally forgot the utter bullshit that is sawbutcher rares. Christ.

There's a level difficulty feeling on zoning in anywhere.

pro tip: paladins arent bards
paladins also arent necromancers so you cant study books of necromancy
and paladins arent samurai so you cant study books of kendo
and paladins arent rage-mages so you cant eat books of rage

>books of rage
>REEEEEEE
>for 50 pages
>FUCK CUNT SHIT PISS DICK FUCK COCK for next 50

also you really do learn spells by eating the ragebooks rather than reading them -- they're used up and destroyed after you learn a single spell, so you eventually need to find 8 copies of book 3 & 4 if you want to learn everything

sounds like my uni's whatsapp group.

>+10
Have artifacts always had the chance of having stat boosts this big?

It was a more recent change. Like .15 trunk or something. Before that they were way more tame, but generally much shittier.

...

Alright. Now the figure out how to deal with low-value merchants.

The new stable
