Yeah 4 points is what you want with Riposte, why no last stand, or whatever it's called?
>>121353275
>why no last stand
Is it important?
It says that it makes you unable to move so I thought it'd kill me pretty surely.
>>121353275
Also should I be going for 5 in Assault.
It seems to be doing a shitload of damage.
>>121353252

>eventually dismissing the challenge as RNG horseshit

>>121353150
I need resistances tho
>>121353703
>>121353596
son you're going anti magic, that means whatever regen infusion youi use will be overpowered as shit, combine that with last stands *won't die, can't die, don't even know how to die* ability, you'll be able to outregen any damage thrown your way while still fighting, IF you have a good regen infusion
On Assault, it depends on the scaling, I really should make a bulwark again sometime...
Get GWF(greater weapon focus) it's in battle tactics I think
>>121354041
I think you're just a shitter. Many wins have mostly +0/+1/+2 auxes. Just swap in resists with your rings.
>>121354181
Yeah i am.. Sadly
I wanna do 15 rune now so im trying to stack up on lot of shit before i switch to TSO and clear the rest but im scared
>>121354056
Alright thanks.
I think I'll be maxing assault even if it might not scale that well just for this.
>>121353252
Okay I want to participate but not sure how. Ive only played offline(most current trunk) and a few or so 15 rune ascensions. wat do
>>121354813
What country are you from? Play on a server that's close to you.
If you're EU, play on underhound, if you're US play on CSZO.
Set up an account and play a bit. If the lag is too much for you then no worries.
>>121353252
Does it have to be trunk? I hate trunk. Does it have to be tiles? I hate tiles.
>>121354963
The tournament is on 0.17.
And no it doesn't have to be tiles. You can play on console too.
>>121355004
so how does it work? do I post my name then you take my scores from now til the tournament is over, or does it start on a certain day or something.
>>121355103
You set up an account on one of the servers then just play 0.17 games.
From 21:00 (GMT) on friday your games are automatically tracked and you get points accordingly.
That's basically it. For more details check out http://dobrazupa.org/tournament/0.17/ .
>>121354879
The lag isnt bad. Getting used to not using a mouse is gonna be strange.
Crawl team will never be as good as the v13 team
Does anyone understand how the animal spawning/detection works in Unreal World?
What region is the best hunting ground in general?
I can survive as a fisherman well enough but I need hides to trade for tools and stuff, and can never seem to find any big game.
>>121355572
That's generally because the Crawl people in this thread are either babbies who need to ask about what weapon to use senpai, or disgruntled old farts who just play it out of spite.
Man, DCSS sucks.
>>121353107
>bug, morgoth has been defeated in combat
Even the game denies that's possible.
>>121355572
Not with that spirit anon, if the kings of men are gone it's only natural a new generation should take their place.

>>121353252
Trunk is fucking gross. No way I'm touching that thing with a ten foot pole.
>>121355946
Maybe it's time to move on, anon.
>>121355672
Best hunting ground is generally marshes. Start at late night, climb ontop of the highest avaliable terrain - taller forests, hills or mountains - and zoom out with ctrl plus the substract key. Look around, repeat for any other high points that have decent view nearby. Some areas are richer in game than others and due to how the spawning mechanisms work there will be slightly more game in areas where you've spent time. Not enough to make or break anything, but it's certainly there. I like the south-eastern parts for my settlement, since it's close to the njerpez and quality driik shops in addition to good hunting grounds. You can get an uncanny amount of reindeer hide and elk hides in the north, though. Just have to ship it halfway across the map if you want to spend it, generally.
>>121356935
Thanks, been having trouble getting a foothold unless i'm a fisherman.
Watching some youtube videos kind of tell me that spear hunting (i.e. tossing javelins) is more effective than bow and arrow hunting. Is this generally true?
Also, do you have a chance of finding random game when travelling on a zoomed in map? Or do i have to travel the zoomed out map in order to find large game?
I think I'll start up north, get a foothold and create some kind of settlement, then head for the Driik once I have some hides to trade for tools that I need.
Love this game so far. There is something so weirdly compelling about it.

>>121359548
Go and centipede it up in PCB
>lvl 2
I already hit like a truck, when this thing level up it will be disgusting
>>121359797
>seven blows
bruh
>>121357364
Only if you have a very bad bow/arrows, or your spears skill is significantly higher than your bow skill. If you have a hunting bow or maybe even a shortbow of normal quality together with regular arrows it should outpreform javelins. An exception is if you know the rite of iron - it works with thrown javelins. Or at least, it used to - I don't do much hunting besides bow hunting.
Definitely can only find animals on the world map. If you get some valuable small hides like rabbits or lynx you can save them to trade to the foregin merchants If you're going to transport your loot, use a raft - it can carry about 400 in addition to whatever you're carrying. Rowing is also usually faster than walking, and it's certainly less bothersome to do. You can even drink salt water without troubles. Don't hunt with more than 4-7% encumberance at the most - ten arrows, a bow and a cut or two should do. Each % reduces your speed, recovery rate, tracking ability and accuracy. Build your house by the coast. Try hiring a vilager! They can even help you chop down trees for your house. Dogs and cows are great, too.
>>121359797
Oh man, and it's +speed.
GG
>>121359896
The winning Furyladder phase warrior had 62 blows per round.
Yeah.
>>121359910
I'll try more bow hunting then, might install that craftable bows mod.
I have a midterm in like 25 minutes but all I can think about its rougelikes.

>>121364885
>>121364985
Don't even bother, to be honest. The flavor is amazing and all, but the game balance is skewed in favor of making your experience as tedious as possible. The dungeon generation is whack as you can see in
>>121364587
You're supposed to stay in floor 50 until level 8 or so if you're afraid of getting one shot, and XP is scarse as all fuck so you'll probably farm Kuzdu for minutes instead of playing the actual game.
The wound point system is awful in practice, and it makes you spend tons of gold in tonics since you're always quaffing dozens of them to get your WP back up.
>>121366025
And what about iron city of dis?
>only 3 runes
Nothing special but still it's my first DCSS and legit roguelike win.
>>121366287
Also holy, look up what brands do what and how resistances and some cases what type of monster it is affect them.
>>121359797
Guessing this is the equivalent of pcb's vorpal blade. The plusses and attributes match up, at least.
is there any way in DCSS to make it so you autobutcher corpses while autoexploring? And make autoexplore actively seek corpses too
In PCB do Novice Mindcrafters evolve?if so why is it taking so fucking long

Hello fellow badplayers, I'm going to make a casual crawl team for the tournament. Nothing expected of you, join if you want to try out the tournament by putting
# TEAMCAPTAIN nikheizen
as the top line in your rc file and respond to this post so I can add you to my own rc file.
Thought it was gonna be a boring game, but Zot:5 and orb run were so close kicking my ass since I got mutations out of my ass from OoFs. Don't think I've ever used so much consumables before.

SoonFUCK ICY RUNE HOLY SHIT kill me..
>>121365724
So I survived the ambush and got tons of xp and a bunch of items to sell, but now Yavanna hates me because of all the summoned animals that died, I have -3000 piety ;_;
>>121370943
>worshipping gods
>not going full fedora
Is it actually worth it? They all seem kind of finicky and I'm sure I'd accidentally a good monster or whatever they dislike.
>>121370943
Yavanna is a bitch to please senpai, and poorly thought out
>likes you charming animals
>only way to do that early on is to use piety
>likes killing undeads/demons/etc
>rare as fuck early on
>>121371418
She also likes you lighting rooms.
Bet you didn't know that.
>>121371813
>>121371418
>>121370943
And also from what I understand generally walking in light gives you piety also.
Not that bad.
>>121371365
Going Aule the Smith gives you some crazy good equipment enhance capabilities, so if you're a generally melee class it has lots of OP potential.
Other gods, don't know yet. Not enough testing.
>>121371365
Its only bonus, there's no downside as far I know. And yeah its worth it, they give good bonus and you get the free spells from their related magic schools
>>121371813
>>121372332
You' re thinking of Varda, Yavanna is the nature/animals one
>>121372821
ayyy you're right
Haven't been around in awhile. Let's see how much more hardcore the DCSS devs have made the game and what sort of fu- bloated bullshit they decided to remove and spare us players from.
http://crawl.develz.org/wordpress/october-trunk-update-and-the-0-17-release-and-tournament-date
HOLY SHIT! The devs added shit. My fucking god they have finally added shit. Yeah, it's fucking garbage, but at least they added more stuff this time. Who else is finally hyped for this game again?
>>121373105
They've been steadily adding shit for the past few releases.
>>121373105
>Hammers are gone
But at what cost, anon. At what cost
>>121373294
There's hope yet, anon. Maybe... maybe one day we'll live in a world where the devs learn that adding content is good. Maybe, just maybe, one day we'll live in a world where hammers and dwarves are both back. This isn't what we need, but it's hope, anon. It's a little bit of hope.
>>121372447
How do you gain his favor? The help neglects to mention this fact. Or are you out of luck if you aren't a dwarf or gnome?
My only experience with fury's gods is starting a dark priest and losing half my piety on floor 1.
>>121373105
You're fucking retarded.
>>121373763
Most of the gods will give you piety for killing shit, I believe it's double the piety if you kill them while 'p'raying. Disable praying after combat or after doing whatever it is that pleases your god because praying while doing nothing actually dunks the piety pretty bad.
>>121373763
Use an axe/hammer
>>121374241
So basically haftedmaster + Aule = gg Morgoth.
>>121364539
>>121364687
Where's the fun in that?
>>121359548
Roguelike games have to take place in medieval fantasy. Playing as something small evokes Alice in Wonderland, and is therefore creatively unacceptable in this dead genre.
>>121364539
That is sensible. It's a world with fucking zombies and other crazy shit are running rampant. Suicide may look pretty good compared to living in that world.

Because you know in your soul you're gonna splat soon.

Last thread somebody asked about poschengband
>Thats pretty cool looking. If i want to keep up with chris's latest updates any idea where should I look? I had no idea that he was even still working after 3.5 and now i'm very intrigued.
The answer is normally the github page, but for a mix of reasons (chris without internet at home right now, maybe teaser secrecy?, etc) it looks like Chris has been keping his work upgrading from 3.5.0 to 4.0.0 as a "secret" on his local machine. He says to expect the public 4.0.0 release (and presumably update to github) sometime around Christmas.
The new character dump and items have me super excited for it.

The stats used to be on the left.
Looks like 'C' now shows a dump, so you can also scroll through things like your ring essences, inventory and quests in one area. Kind of neat.

>>121394531
Not sure I like the messages. If you use the minimum size terminal (like me), your character and monsters can easily be covered up by the log. Turning on the option to center the map helps for now, but I don't know about later on with tons of things acting.
Does anyone here play Unreal World? I asked about it a bit earlier, I've been learning it this week.
I find it weirdly compelling if a little bit frustrating to learn.
Why is this allowed?
I have another one stashed away but it has a shitty suffix

>>121407491
Oh sorry, I must have misread then.
I know people are talking about the upcoming DCSS tournament team, but I'd like to briefly discuss a few last things about the /rlg/ team in the /vg/ League.
http://implyingrigged.info/wiki//rlg/
We are already signed up, but there's two issues I'd like to settle:
1. We need a goal horn (that ISN'T from a shitty roguelike), music that would play after someone would score a goal. (Sigmund has his own goal horn). It doesnt necessarily need to be from a roguelike but it would be a plus. It should be something upbeat and exciting (i.e. NOT the Elona login music).
2. There's a couple more roster issues. RNGesus and Easymode Roguelike have been sacked and need replacements.
You may also suggest other roster changes.
>>121410540
https://soundcloud.com/the-slanted-room/forever-adventure
My suggestion.
>>121410540
Obviously nobody cares though.
>>121411637
except for all the people who do.
the /vgl/ council believes we have enough general support to have a team.
>>121411290
Thanks this is definitely the kind of thing I'm looking for.
>>121410540
Not many roguelikes have a soundtrack is the problem. We can probably use something from DoomRL for the goal horn. As for the roster issues, we should probably include some stuff from Nethack. Something like Wizard of Yendor or perhaps one of the gods. Someone who has played more nethack than me should suggest something.
>>121411964
I went through and looked at the doom RL sound track and found 2 I think could work.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXi3zku2EG8
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uNpPcFMZNV4
Also, if we really need another roster and no one can come up with one, we could just use doom guy. I think it goes without saying that most of the general has a soft spot for doom RL.
Doomguy is already a player for /vr/ in the /4cc/
>>121410540
Wasn't there a voting thing for the names?
>>121411964
There were a few NetHack related things last time. Vladbane the tin opener was one of them
>>121413215
Yeah head here and suggest names and goal horns, better than spamming the general.
https://www.suggestionox.com/r/l4nlgv
>>121412943
literally who gives a shit
>>121413563
Not him but I think that Doomguy better suits the /vr/ team. We have better names anyways

Scrolls of wipeout are too dangerous to try and get unless you have an overupgraded weapon, and by that time you're better off just killing the fuckers. Heck, the only place they're good is the demon halls if you have no torch or the dwarf palace if a sorcerer is about to kill you
Also fuck off mimics holy shitttt there is no way to identify them and so you always get hit at least once this is bullshit
>>121416968
Sounds like a bad excuse.
Just git gud instead of whining like a little bitch.
>>121416968
>Bored after 2 runes
Are you playing melee dudes or something? Why don't you play a more exciting character type?
>>121416968
Resist the Skinner box, anon, and find a game that's actually fun.
>>121416968
Yes, git gud so you can instead win while being bored the entire time.
Or you could, you know, play a roguelike that is actually fun. Try Brogue, it's apparently what DCSS wants to be anyway.
>>121417468
>having fun is more important than gitting gud
Somebody get this memer out of here.
>>121417636
I bet you play DCSS. This is not the general for your kind.

aw fuck I forgot how good the fanmusic was for DoomRL
Hell's Weapons is great
>>121417723
So, in a sense, I merely adopted the thread.
There was an attempt to make a multiplayer NetHack called 'InterHack' by Nathan Danials ( http://www.roguebasin.com/index.php?title=Interhack ).
Nathan here removed the download on the sourceforge due to some copyright thing.
I got his RTOR.pdf in a series of jpeg images off of some UK database caching website and it seems sensible, though the actual game seems to be gone in the wind.
Did anyone manage to obtain this and keep a hold of it?
Last known filename is 'ihack-2.1.43.tar.bz2'.
>>121418305
Who cares, NetHack 4 already supports multiplayer.
>>121416968
Stop forcing yourself to play DCSS. Most people feel the same way you do, which is why the midgame gets shorter with every version.
Try:
>DoomRL
>Sil
>Brogue
There are some rare breeds who can play DCSS every single day and master every single mechanic without going insane, but that's not most people.
>>121420476
>NetHack 4 already supports multiplayer
yeah that would go over well

Some rlg anons played it actually. It didn't go like that. They just quit out of boredom.
>>121421285
>They just quit out of boredom.
Legends say that's why Diablo's original developers made it real time way back when.
>>121420476
Which uses a turn-based movement scheme for each client and it is not great at all.
This is why I was asking about Interhack because it uses RTOR specifically.
So, to answer your question: I care.
>>121418305
Because of this post I ended up dumpster diving through FTP servers.
I just now finished patching an ftp client written before I was born.
So far all I've found is version 0.20 from 1998.

The FTP client, not the game; it was written by at least 1990.
>>121429329
Just found version 1.0 somewhere else.
https://0x0.st/iEx.tgz
I'll take another look around for newer versions.
I think the best place to look is an outdated/unmaintained sourceforge mirror.

I'm pretty much clueless about Brogue, first playthrough other in something other than the mobile version. So first real playthrough.
Found a vault and don't know what to take.
>>121431853

>>121432037
Telepathy charm.
My reasoning:
No good weapon, Warhammer kind of sucks
No good armor, chain mail sucks assuming unenchanted
Light weapon requires testing and backtracking, which will lead you to probably starve as a new player; similar reasoning about the empowerment wand
>>121432382
Thanks
>>121432037
Empowerment is one of my top picks because all it needs is an ally to win.
>>121406128
>+2
??? that shit is nerfed
Also I did the same thing :^)
>>121432725
To expand on that, pretty much anything better than a goblin easily becomes stronger than the player when empowered several times and will brawl down monsters that you have little hope of killing in a fair fight.
Should I go demon whip of poison or great mace?
>>121433095
>Nerfed
>Added rPois, rN, rMut, rCorr
He also did it on a character where that was literally the best thing he could have possibly found. Absolute mad man.
>>121433546
Was talking specifically about the AC.
>>121433526
That depends, do you want shields at all? You can eventually rebrand the whip into something less shitty for the end game. If you don't want shields, go great mace.
>>121433612
>Soft wizard hat
>Ac nerfed
who the fuck cares
>>121433673
I hear shields suck. I plan on going for 15 runes, should I bother with shields?
>>121433804
Shields are pretty good. We'd have to see your character to know if it'd be worth it. Post a morgue or something.
>>121353252
Why the hate for trunk?
>>121433990
Some people don't realize that they're actively making the game harder because they're too caught up in the supposed "removal" nonsense.

>>121434658
>Enemies not abiding by the same rules as players
>Bullshitting the player
Give examples please.
>>121434756
You know that you can post your morgue to pastebin, right? From what it looks like, you're just a melee dude with a little spell support. Stick with the mace and you'll be fine. Find a way to fix that rCx. Skeeh is really great, but make sure to take it off against anything that can hit you with cold until you patch that resistance.

>>121435270
Alright cool. I have like 5 scrolls of enchant weapon, should I use them all on the great mace and hope of find of scroll of branding?
>>121434898
hunger clock
>>121435895
You could probably hold out and wait for a branded one. Frost and Fire giants are basically guaranteed to have them 50% of the time, in addition to other giants and random drops. You'll be sure to find one in no time.

Do enemies in crawl even have MP?
Do they run out of that?
>>121434658
Crawl's development feels silly. It's just a bunch of people tinkering with an outdated game, wasting time on nonsense like removing misogyny and changing monster movespeeds by a tenth of a unit. The contributers would be better off splitting into like-minded groups and working on new roguelikes from the ground up.
It's an honest shame because there are a lot of creative people wasting time coding stuff that will never see the light of day anyway.

>Roguelike combat in general
I'll give you eyes, but you don't really run into them anymore. And combat is more or less the same across the board for most roguelikes. But are you seriously mad about the rest of that stuff? You are aware that most of the game is stacked in the player's favor, right?
>>121437124
senpai what is even the -point- of crawl if the combat is so bad
Like all you do anymore is o-tab or o-run to a hallway or o-zap or o-walk away
Please don't stay "muh genre has uninteresting combat so it's okay for crawl combat to be shitty" it really isn't senpai.
Sil ToME Nethack and it's variants, ADoM, Demon, Maidensnow, Elona, etc all have more interesting combat than Crawl
>>121437510
Never thought I'd see Nethack be touted as a game with interesting combat.
>>121437673
Senpai, you have so many more ways to deal with enemies in Nethack than you do with Crawl, there is pretty much no useless item in the game, it's a game that rewards players thinking outside the box and intuition, while at the same time having a high emphasis on positioning and making meaningful decisions.
I honestly can't see what -wouldn't- be interesting about it.
>>121416438
It took me like 6 years of playing DCSS to get my first win. Step up desu senpai
>>121391568
Thanks kind anon. That was me asking where to hunt for stuff. I'll keep an eye out there for updates. I'm pretty hyped too after the character dump and item teasers.
>>121437926
You can cheese 80% of monsters by scribbling a word in the dust.
And in the later part of the game where you have all these options, you are so powerful you can just bump into everything until it dies (this applies to DCSS too).
>>121368883
Wizzzargh here, since my attempt at making a clan has inexplicably attracted imposters, misinformation, and dead signups, I think it's better if I just join yours instead

Remember to post when you're playing and what server so /rlg/ can watch and root for you guys
>>121438970
My number probably should be higher since the only part worth looking at is pre-wand of wishing.
I mean, you could read a scroll of fire to do something, I'm sure. Or you could Elbereth.
What about confuse monster, wouldn't that be neat? Or you could Elbereth and know you are safe before it gets to melee.
Nethack has a lot of options, sure. I bet it feels good when you lure an iron golem on a rust trap. But there's a few that are so overpowered (Elbereth, conflict, cockatrice corpses, teleport other) that no one ever uses the rest.
