Digrat returned to D8 for a rest break between bouts of ownage on D9.  While he was there he saw an octopode corpse, lying on the ground.  It was Bloopex, with eight arrows stuck in his body.  "Pobrecito.  Guess arrows hit hard when you have low AC".  He picked them out, one at a time.  By the time he was done removing them, the body had rotted.  No matter.  He cut Bloopex's rotted corpse into eight pieces and gobbled them.
I see why they say this is a delicacy.  Well, that's all the vengeance I need, but I may as well keep going and see if I can get that lifelong fame and all

Hmmm, I wonder what chance Twitch plays Crawl has of making any progress whatsoever.

[Grujah]

So, you read a TP wand, then quaffed a random potion which turned out to be paralysis? Harsh.

Ring is nice, and so are the wands, but not much like with the rest

Why train everything? I'd focus on getting Charms and Fire up, to get Fireball more reliable, make Battlespehere more powerful and maybe get that Haste going.

[Jorbles]

The wands were actually bad luck given that my god was Ashenzari and I was trying to build piety by keeping a cursed weapon equipped. Ashenzari was not an amazing god, and it was really difficult to build piety up. I don't think it's the variety of skill training that killed me here anyways. The wands could have saved me if I hadn't been following Ashenzari. I probably should have read a remove curse scroll to use the wands in the fight. I spent a large portion of my first fight with Nergalle sitting next to her waiting for Death's Door to wear off while she was almost only to have her recast it before it timed out. Oh well, I was playing a little riskier once I knew I'd won. I wanted to get back to my MiBe that's on the final level of the Spider Nest.

[popsofctown]

Why aren't Solriska and Devikraken getting the awesome flavor?

The way I wrote their backstory I have more idea about how to write their climax than how to add any more rising action.  For that, the round needs to end.

What? You don't need to wield wands to use, you can use them while your weapon is cursed.

[shraeye]

i'll do another run tomorrow, possibly two.  This is an ultra-busy time for me.

Seriously? I thought you needed to have them equipped to evoke them. How do you use them?

'i' -> [key matching the wand] -> 'v' -> [use arrow keys to aim your shot] -> 'enter'

thematically it makes little sense.  And there are these rare staffs in the game that also producse spell effects, but you have to wield those to use them, which is consistently inconsistent.  In 0.14 Felids will somehow be able to use wands even though they can't grasp small objects well enough to throw them

Huh, well that would have been really handy to know. There's so many little quirks to this game.

for future reference, you should not wait until you get into a dangerous situation to start using a wand.  You usually want to use-ID it by casting it on a distant minion, preferably a weak one.  (this is usually worth the saved ID scroll, because quaff IDing is much more dangerous than wand use IDing.)

If Felids get the Blade Hands mutation, they get the bonus damage like anyone else; however, since they walk on all four legs and metal is noisy against stone, they get a major penalty to stealth.


There's lots of nuances.

Rods and decks you need to equip, wands no.

I am also quite irked that you need to actually equip a chunk for Sublimation of Blood.

[popsofctown]

You have to equip stones to optimally use sandblast too.

Nemelex followers don't have to equip decks to use them, which is huge.

shraeye and Grujah, you have 4 days left for your runs.  If you do not finish all, your best one is used.

[Grujah]

I've finished mine (some time ago). No rush, tho, shra.

My run #1 was particularly fun.

[shraeye]

i have no idea what a deck is.  I'm starting another run today.  Sorry if I don't get all 3 in but I'm trying hard on the runs I make.  But regardless, I'm having a fun time exploring a new game.

[popsofctown]

A deck is a type of rare item.

Grujah I knew you were finished, but there is some amount of strategic info divulged by saying so I made announcements as though you hadn't.

[shraeye]

eh, i figured he'd do the runs before me.  I'm just a slow person.

I know, I know. You are keeping it as low info as possible, for no amount of advantage for any player.
