/rlg/ - Roguelike General

Yeah each morgue file is saved on that specific server, it makes sense to do that though since people could just create accounts on other servers and intentionally break streaks by dying under the same username.

Not all but most early ones, like sigmund, jessica, ijyb, cant remember of any others
It says which ones start with wands in the patch notes for 0.20

>Bad monster sees me
>Try to escape
>They kill me

>be snek
>anything sees me
>there is no escape

Why do two-floor shafts have to be a thing?

The same way how 3 floor shafts are a thing as well

>tfw get banished by the elf sorcerer or whatever his name is
>puts me right next to the rune in abyss:3
Sometimes this game is fun and nice

nope wait my bad he died
good job user I didn't see he was paralyzed

I think he survived that with one HP and escaped though

He posted the story yesterday

YES YES, I've been relying on zombies for a while since Yred hadn't gifted me anything better than a skeletal warrior but looks like the tide has finally turned.

He survived with 1 hp and escapes, if its to believe his story from yesterday

alright but technically it looks like a death so it's fine and it's also interesting to look at

but let's not go back to the whole "why haven't you posted my win in the OP" like we used to do many moons ago

Poor little orb spider

I wrote a little script to show which species/backgrounds/gods will give the biggest increase in combo/god points. This way you don't have to cross-reference the s/b/g page with your clan's current scores when deciding what to play.

Makhbats: 198.27.67.67:8001/combo_god_points/clans/nikheizen.txt
Serial Splatters: 198.27.67.67:8001/combo_god_points/clans/thaddeus.txt
Tummy Slashers: 198.27.67.67:8001/combo_god_points/clans/prongedramen.txt

You can also replace clans/(name) with players/(name) to see the same info for an individual player.

Octodragon time

IS THIS,DARE I SAY IT,A MOTHERFUCKING JOJO REFERENCE?

>PB streak
>have to decide to fuck points and go back to already won diesel combos to improve the streak or go for tournament stuff
feels bad

Linesprint was pretty fun honestly.

I'm more of a zigsprint man myself.

What happened to Berserk in 0.20? Seems like it lasts longer, and there are no longer exhaustion, despite the message log saying so?

Also, what is up with all these sewers and ossuary?

Can you wait out Vehumet's salt casting conjurations on D1 or is it exp based?

I dunno maybe read the changelog??? FUCKING MORON

>198.27.67.67:8001/combo_god_points/clans/prongedramen.txt
MuVM of Kiku sounds pretty chill famalam thanks

berserk's duration is the same, it's dependent on how many turns you can keep continuously attacking

d-did he ascend?

no
he died on the way to his home planet

Yes, with one (1) HP.

yes and if dio drops the stone mask and you put it on you become a vampire permanently

This is a nice color scheme senpai. What is it?

Deep blue on amber.

nice user

Dont forget that the crawl 0.18 tournament starts soon anons!

TEAM DISLEXIAPATER FOREVER!!! Congratulations! You're awesome! We're gonna show those teamsplat hardcore autists what nethacking is all about - this year they won't win! :D

manman got his 15 streak broken by a mangrove hornet

fault
atleast yermak died on d:1

Haven't played in 2 version so excuse me for a bit here but
>Removed High Elves
>Potions of cure mutation, beneficial mutation, and mutation have been merged
>Removed Wands of heal wounds, haste, teleportation, and slowing.
WHY

isn't the rule when you find slime temple you take it?

no because jiyva is a terrible god

Bloat

you must
also for sick tourney points

How? What was he playing?

No, only if youre a bulky char and you usually take it mid/late game because they removed paralyze slimes so youll get all your loot eaten

Yeah, be warned though that his only good ability is slimify.

seriously why they remove high elves and wands and pakellas and keep fucking jivya around

I legitimately think the devs have forgotten about Jiyva.

I completely forgot it existed until I looked at the tourny point sheet and saw it at the top of the list.

Shame its a broad axe tho, i could still use it i guess.. Should i?

Thanks! Good work on the samurai yourself.
We're already the leading team with the highest number of members and the highest number of conducts (even though for the sake of the tourney this is only a 10 conduct win and some dedicated autist could fo a 11 conduct win with some faggy wizard)
is having 20 people in the team even legal
Thanks!

yeah shield + that is going to be fairly strong

They know he still exists because specifically removed all possible early game spawns of him

>not saving up hundreds of arrows and bolts so you can strategically summon jelly for infinite regen during a tough fight

>High Elves
Non distinct race (no innate mutations or abilities, decent apts, too similar to Human and other races), too "Tolkienesque"
>Mutation
Streamlining the mutation mechanic. Previously the "best" use was to save Cures until needed, use Benes and ignore Mutation Chunks etc. Streamlining it removes this "optimal" play in favor of something that works quite similar but still has a chance to leave you with bad or unwanted mutations.
>Wands
Too OP. As far as I remember (too lazy to check) Slow was untouched. Wands removed because essentially finding Haste/Heal was a game-winner in combination with Recharge Scrolls. Drop rates for the respective potions/scrolls have been increased to compensate for the loss while removing the chance of essentially "infinite" use with recharge

also,

Jiyva takes a little preparation to play, but she's kinde of a mix of xom and fedhas, you've got to keep an eye on your muts, and you also benefit greatly from battle preparation

>yiuf berserks me before i smash him
thanks idiot

You finish taking off your +1 cloak.
You start putting on your armour.
You continue putting on your fine cloak. x5
_You finish putting on the +1 cloak "Dadd" {MR+}.
it's dad!

>not saving yiuf

on a UC TrMo is it worth it to use a regular shield? or should i just be a claw nigga until/if i find a large one?

You need all the defense you can get until you get scales, so yes.

But im a Fo so i can use 2h anyway, just vamp is too good to pass

>hi Dadd, I'm Dad

>Yiuf heals you right after electrocuting you

O baby

that's a pretty quick whip

whats the delay on that then? 0.3

...

>gelatinous cube eats the luckstone
This is not okay.

Or maybe it is okay. After all these years I still don't know anything about NetHack.

yup

>tfw first golden dragon i kill i get the armour
Its time

grats

Ty user
Sad thing is i got no jewellery in vaults.. Just a few books and had the rare gold 'vault'

How far back do i need to go to play a version of dcss before they started removing good roguelike features like potion shattering and having to actually identify items?

0.14 or 0.15
You have versions on lantea underhound going all the way back to 0.10, but 0.12 and lower are somewhat laggy so its hard to play normally

>paralyzed on the upstair on d:1

thats a fault

where can i download these?

>having to actually identify items
What did he mean by this?

sourceforge.net/projects/crawl-ref/files/Stone Soup/

If you wanna play offline, theres every version going from 0.1, first tiles one, if you are a tiles guy, starts at 0.7 or 0.8, you can get all of those on the dcss site somewhere on the index/archive page

I think he means that when you use a scroll, and lets say it lets you use it on something, that if you use it on an weapon, it doesnt identify because the scroll doesnt do anything for weapons since its, lets say, an enchant armour scroll, so the scroll still is unidentified but you know that when you used it on weapons, it didnt do anything

Ah makes sense.

Im sorry if you didnt understand it, my explaining skills are somewhat bad.. I can try to clarify bit more if needed

>D1 shaft lands me next to an adder

RIP streak

also wands auto-identify on pickup now and a few other "quality of life" things have been done that i don't like

I wonder how many uphevals and hits, if any, ill need to kill him

I wasn't sarcastic. Such a healthy general when you assume people are mocking you by default.

The answer is 6

immolation + upheavel should fuck him up pretty quick. TRJ is always a jobber.

Oh i wasnt saying the general is bad, im just saying in general that my explanation skills are shit, its hard for me to transfer my knowledge onto someone somehow

>they STILL haven't fixed TRJ's tile
IT'S BEEN TWO YEARS

y-you too

guys i think i need more int

>How? What was he playing?

Barachi Transmuter

He basically got fucked in like two turns, entirely due to getting paralysed by a hornet (particularly while using Blade hands, which dropped his AC to 8).

While it could be argued that the game fucked him over, 1) getting paralysed by a hornet is always possible if it does damage; the game's info even says so, and 2) he *did* have opportunities to try to hit the hornets instead of the shambling mangrove, which *might* have lessened his chance of getting paralysed if he successfully killed the hornets. With almost 19 skill in UC and Blade Hands up, lessening the danger by quickly killing the hornets was definitely doable.

Manman truly faulted.

also you shouldn't be fighting that shambler without rPOISON, and possible just jumping away
