>It gestures at your feet.
>You rise through the ceiling.

Took 40 recalls or so to find the Questing Beast. Taking bets on how long to find both Wutugu and Mulu. 50? 70? 100? 150? 250?

remember to do your best today

>playing archer
>all your best arrows were still on the ground around that unique's feet

>tfw could be playing roguelikes but stuck in a family function

What's the equivalent roguelike feel?

Being trapped in Pan, scumming for all its runes, when you could've just ascended already?

Why would you want to kill the trash uniques without escorts

>not posting my win
fuck you faggot

may be easier to spawn them in an ambush though not really sure

when you're trying to have a nice private chat with Hermes and he calls for his famalam to gangbang you

chubby elf tummies might be cute, but they're not roguelikes
why not post awoo instead

awoos aren't roguelikes either but okay

Momiji is not roguelikes either, man.

Not really.

doing your best and wishing the same for others is roguelikes

...

>lvl 3 dungeon sewers

fuck yes

Because you get to kill secret bosses in Heaven and Hell when you kill all the uniques

I disagree

2hu is roguelikes

Problem is - i want to use Long Swords (so i can grapple with each riposte) and game is mocking me.

At least aptitudes are decent for octopodes.

No, user. You just have a weird fetish for killing even useless uniques. Admit it and be done with it.

if one is still alive you should use The Emperor Q or Aphrodite for their summon uniques

I guess morgoth and maybe some others can do it too
though dancing with morgy like that can be stupid

Recs for simple co-op roguelike?

it's not strictly considered a roguelike by most in this thread (though I consider it one) but tomenet may scratch that itch for you and your friend

DCSS - rlgrobin
Demon - Computer is your bro and controls your allies
Dwarf Fortress - Succession forts are fun

120-150 recalls so far, no sign of either of them.

are you at least using Palantir to help hunt if you're not going to farm something with summon uniques

request for poschengband variants make light hound corpses/skeletons weigh less than other zephyr hound types

It's been a while /rlg/ What's the FOTM this year?

Give me challenge combos for stone soup, /rlg/

I crave the pain

Minotaur Berserker

Pure MUMO my dear acolyte

do you perchance have the pic that lists the rules of it

Here you go a pasta just for you.

>fall down a shaft into a pack of killer bees

yea cool game fuck U

remember when dcss was fun

trap detection is your friend, could have as easily been a rune that summoned "immortal beings"

/rlg/ hasn't had any new material in at least 2 years.

Shame, I thought Caves of Qud or Sproggiwood would have brought some new life.

I'd put a bullet in my head before searching out rare uniques without Palantir. Also the unique summoners don't seem to summon them (Qzlzuup didn't anyway).

>caves of shit
>good

CoQ might be good in X years when it's finished at least

bless you

CoQ is actually a really good game (remove this part of the message when you paste it)

>posting the old version
if you're going to post old versions you gotta go way back son

hey, you buttcheek

>only 4 true pharaohs have risen since 2014


makes you think how many nameless ragged individuals have died in pursuit of the unholy prize

>13 runes

Holy fuck.

how did you miss that we were basically completely overcome by shitposting

why do you hate it, /rlg/?

it could just be that he has so many summon spells that he randomly never cast summon uniques while you were watching

I must be completely terrible at Pixel Dungeon, but the extremely harsh food clock and the over-reliance on RNG to win just seems weird as fuck. Like, if you're playing a certain class and don't have Thing X by the fourth floor or whatever, you lose, gg.

You mean three entire threads of one guy arguing with himself about the immorality of having kids.

It was a stealthy MuMo game

I can appreciate it ,especially after Basil's big shit

IMHO, he could have done Coc, but he knew he'd go through a bunch of blink scrolls on the last floor. There should've been a clause to let him evoke flying just for that rune -- if dicks or whoever made the MuMo image ever amends the rules, the no-evokables rules should be changed to "No evokables -- but you can fly on the last floor of Cocytus."

But he really did chicken out of Gehenna.

Still, the fact that he did Dis and Tartarus was fucking beautiful. One of the highlights of the past few months.

what do you do in the midgame in pcb ?

Where do you go to find good gear or shit like that

Anybody know if the steam version of ADOM is any good?

the log for Dis was beautiful

depends...get into Arena as soon as possible to jumpstart late drops, and some quests (especially Cloning Pits and Old Castle) have a set of class-specific reward possibilities, though you may not get the good one. But again those are not necessarily easy quests, especially the latter.

Lonely Mountain 39 is an okay spot to farm stat potions and dragons, or better yet 40 if you can handle Smaug since stat potions are native to 40. Still best to transition to a high dungeon especially Arena ASAP.

>Where do you go to find good gear or shit like that

1. find a place with dragons/wyrms
2. kill dragons/wyrms

Yeah I don't understand that, morality is a spook anyway

No, he summoned Morgoth+Wong, I think it has something to do with the summon uniques code where they won't be low level uniques no matter what, same as how the Serpent does it.

I mean, maybe some enemy around level 15 has summon monsters as a spell, and that would work...? Otherwise it's back to recalling once I take out a few remaining ones.

>A Plain Gold Ring

i really wonder whether trolling for a humanoids ambush in the right level wilderness would be faster but idk

Some Geh ends are sealed off by a moat of lava, and perhaps a single tile for the rune itself.

yeah PGR possibly the hardest monster in the entire game

how many runs have you played? the first 5 levels are just that, you either find a weapon that will be good for the next few dungeons, ghost gives you uber armor or find a flask and keep it always maxed
if you die, one of your 'important' items will be in a corpse in the dungeon you died. Playing the same class over and over is highly rewarded imo

It's kind of like getting a +10 speed ring.

mumo faces the challenge head on, he doesn't pussy out when he thinks he can't do it
15 runes was within his grasp, especially since he was able to scum pan/abyss for shit tons of tele without risk

Every time.

>scumming is ok on a mumo

But that's wrong. You're wrong. Scumming is what weak players do when they can't win any other way.

there is honor in the noble art of the scum

so why didn't he get the coc rune then
he was literally right there on coc:7
why didn't he dive gehenna when he didn't even see if the rune was blocked by lava

I don't see how one can finish Cocy without a bunch of blinking scrolls on hand

>!New Life and !Self Knowledge in the same vault
>up from 93 to 112, and with decent caps so i can max my melee stats
That's so much better.

coc:7 has -tele. You're not getting to/away from that island unless you burn 7+ tele/blink scrolls. And who knows what it would take to kite out god knows how many ice fiends.

>see someone shill Pixel Dungeon here

Only Di left to fill and Nether to double cover now.
Will probably need an elemental immunity or two though since I get 9 blows a round.

those two guys miiiight only spawn in stronghold

Unicorn couldn't git gud.

what if you're a mumo and got stuck in the coc:7 rune island without and form of tele or flying
is it possible to press 5 until a demon shows up with a scroll in their inventory or does the game become unwinnable

just confuse urself and scramble across

this isn't nethack
one doesn't simply confuse themselves

The rare Mulu finally makes his appearance. Two more left. Tomorrow.

unicorn doesn't have to git gud, it already IS good

controlled bloat is still in the game? can't believe they haven't removed this scummy nobrainer spell yet

>level 8 spell is a nobrainer

can gnolls cast level 8-9 spells

gnolls can still reach 27 in all skills given an infinite time to grind

it just takes ~3x more xp than a normal race

Who's your favourite nonstandard god? Mine's qazlal

>tfw 6 str gnoll

switch to chei
problem solved

I've easily posted a hundred CoQ screenshots in these threads over the last two years, but even I get tired
Now is the reign of UrW
(Again)

is it the fact it costs money? you never seem TOMEposting or anything else

Does glotrot still ruin runs in CoQ?

It's not finished

I actually like caves of shit I was just shitposting
The blue tint of the paid version looks like trash though

Neither is Dwarf Fortress or crawl (technically) but it's still full of content
