I just thought of something, wouldn't the fungal skill be good for vampires/necros? first you start out with some mushrooms, you get an awesome pet, you can turn shrooms into other shrooms(vampirism+the lifesteal shroom is godlike) etc?
Holy fuck this game is hilarious. vox_brain_too_dumb01a.wav [I]"No, your brain is too dumb!"[/I]
Oh wow, made a Swords-Maces-Axes dual-wielding badass earlier. Died while chopping through about 1/3rd of a monster zoo on the 2nd floor. I think I'll make a crafter next. Smithing-Tinkering-Alchemy, then throw bombs everywhere. [editline]22nd July 2011[/editline] "Your mother was a radish" is perhaps my favorite mob insult.
Thou art a pimple on the dungeon floor!
I hate you so much
Why does magic seem so weak? Every time I try to make a mage the floor is wiped with my lifeless body within minutes. [editline]22nd July 2011[/editline] By jove, I've got it! The trick is not to get hit, ever. Thank Pythagoras for Froda's Jump Discontinuity.
[QUOTE=Nerts;31257075]Ten floors.[/QUOTE] Or 9 floors and Dredmor. When i opened the first door Dredmor was there :v:
Keep dieing by accident by assaulting the shop keeper by right clicking him with the unarmed AoE :downs:
Bawww, my awesome dual wielding staffs character died on floor 6, fucking acid traps.. Time to figure out a new build.
Yeah acid traps kill you in a 2 or 3 turns there. And if not, lasts long enough to kill you anyhow unless you got a way to remove the effect.
Unarmed + Archaeology is a surprisingly good combo. You can kick artifacts out of the store and send them off for massive XP. Or just keep them, although if you ever walk back into the store you have to drop + kick out everything you stole or you get pounded by Brax.
[QUOTE=SomeDumbShit;31241928]So how do you grab something when it spawns like this and you have no teleport powers? [img]http://gyazo.com/fd06d306e346c122829d1b2ac735b84c.png[/img][/QUOTE] i use the psychokinetic shove (psionics) to get these. you can also move traps with it (the annoying ACID TRAPS!)
Why is Vampirism considered OP? Only being able to heal in combat seems pretty shit in practice, since traps will still slap your shit and you end up one-shotting diggles and the like pretty fast, so you can't even heal much that way.

Unless you took one of the skills that allows you to heal. Vampire is OP because you regain life during combat. No sacrifice to heal.
What do i do with all these useless items taht i just don't need?
Sweet, my old save works again. Time to finally kill Lord Dredmor.

[QUOTE=Plasma Rifle;31267073]Doesnt look half bad. Also, she must have huge eyebrows. :D[/QUOTE] Huge eyebrows have been confirmed, yes :v: If I recall correctly, it's pretty much going to be the main character, only female, so don't expect anything hugely different.

A warning for anyone playing golemancer and using Unliving Walls: they won't disappear if you save and load the game. Almost managed to lose my character after accidentally locking myself in a room by this. Good thing I had a rock wand to punt the wall forward.

There was a small snippet of this blogpost posted earlier, but I think it's worth posting the entire thing, it covers quite a bit. [release][B]Laundry Day “When you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is to stop digging.” — Ancient Diggle Proverb [/B] Today, I caught up on my sleep and did all my laundry. Small things, but necessary, especially if you have ever seen what three weeks of laundry looks like. I also started taking stock of the bug pile. So since you’re all wondering, here are some Mild Announcements. - We have hired Chris Triolo to do some art for us; in particular, he will be providing us with a female hero for Dredmor (Something that I have always wanted) and a handful of new monsters. Chris has promised to “rein in his salty language”, whatever that means. Welcome aboard, Chris – and just remember: when the new hideous demons start killing people, it’s Your Fault. Chris will be working on these as soon as he gets some of his other contract work wrapped up, and we look forward to letting you all play Dredmor as a woman with massive eyebrows. - We have gotten Valve to set us up with an opt-in beta program; particularily active community users, and general masochists, will be invited to participate in our Advance Patch Testing Program. More on this as soon as we get it set up. - I now have a working Mac development environment of my very own, which means Mac users will be getting the same level of love as their Windows brethren from now on. (Linux users, we love you too. I hope to have some good things to say about this soon enough.) - I now have a version of Dredmor that can test three hundred save games for compatibility in five minutes. (Seriously? This is the best thing ever.) I have also gone through the bug and balance pile and have started working out what is going to get into the next patch. The following is a draft list of what we are planning to address, collectively, for 1.0.4. If your favourite bug or balance issue isn’t here, don’t worry – we are thinking about it, and we will address That Lame Skill You Really Want To Love eventually. I don’t have an ETA for when we will get through this list, but I will let you know. Real life – plus Company Drinking and Cigars on Saturday – will delay the start of work on this, so realistically I will start working on the next patch on Monday. The biggest issue towards getting this done in a timely manner is that, as previously mentioned, I am moving on the first of August. This, traditionally, means chaos, but it also means David and I will be sharing an office space again… and this can only mean more madness that will please the Elder Gods. Ye olde Patch 1.0.4 issue list is below: Bugs, Actual Bugs: Fix the memory leak issue on level creation. Fix the issue were “empty” tiles reset certain important properties when writing a room template. Lag due to blood splatters. Fix the fact that warriors are not getting correct primary stats per warrior skill selected, and wizards are getting too many. Autofill consumption bug is still, apparently, showing up, and needs to be re-addressed. This Translation is All Wrong! needs to take damage into account. Fix the -nomusic option. Fix the crash on fullscreen mode with OS X 10.7. (This one? All Apple’s fault. You can look forward to any game that uses a fullscreen software rendered framebuffer breaking, silently and awfully.) WASD has issues in, or near, doorframes, especially if there are monsters in them. Transmutation skills do not correctly transmute entire stacks. (Gems in particular.) The auto-loot does not pick up lockpicks, and does not have an option for lockpicks. Dual wielding needs to be fixed, in particular the negative counter bug. Look into the reports of the shield bearer skills also doing something odd. Monsters getting 0 HP due to a debuff (acid bolt, nightmare curse, etc.), and suddenly turning into God Diggles with giant HP bars. (ALL GLORY TO THE ARCH DIGGLE.) Sleeping enemies should not be able to dodge, block, or counter. Potion stacking occasionally stops working. Crafting tools let you stack things that should not, normally, be stackable. Thrusty Achievement is not consistently triggering. Zoo achievement is not consistently triggering. Other achievement screwups. Zoos are not showing as cleaned up if you run away from them. Lutefisk Cube behaviour should be consistently with stacks and with individual units. After loading and saving, objects may no longer show up in the crafting toolkits you left them in. Issues with traps, Brax, and stores. Pets occasionally just act like idiots. In particular, they need better targeting, the ability to lose targets, and the ability to switch targets dynamically. Leaderboard scores need a CRC check on the datafiles before uploading. Pet double-summons. Move music loading into its own thread AND TEST IT THOROUGHLY. (Don’t put it in the patch if it’s too scary.) Haywire not triggering, except when it absolutely shouldn’t. (Vampirism, traps, everything but your spellcasting.) UI Fixes WASD should let you interact with: crates, fountains, Dredmor statues, doors, chests, evil chests, uber chests, etc. (Basically: anything you might normally click on if you’re next to it.) SHIFT-Click mode, when turned on, doesn’t correctly handle SHIFT-Clicking as regular clicking. Add a way to split stacks of items in the inventory and belt. Add pricing information to the quicksell. Add quicksell to the belt. Monsters should get HP bars when you are adjacent to them, not just with mouse over (for WASD players) Minimap size should be saved in config Window positions should be saved in config Delete confirmation when deleting a save game Minimap icons: uberchests, quest shrines, quest items, quest mobs, important mobs, Dredmor, user markables Mousewheel triggers things in the tutorial menu Equipment comparison tooltips for the equipment screen Vampires should not be told to “Eat Food To Regain Health.” Game speed should be saved. Game should render text using Unicode-8 internally, for the Japanese translation teams. (Especially since they showed me how to do it.) Third row of the inventory occasionally gets items stuck in it. Make lockpicking less tedious. Make sporecrafting less tedious. Add a way to force your player to kick down a door or a chest, rather than using a lockpick. Clicking on pets should just shove them aside, and not force you to kill your moustache golem by stabbing it with a sword to get it out of the way. (Really, how could you do that…) Missing Sound Effects: Electroblobby attacks Crossbows Chest opening Footsteps with WASD movement Some clicks and bangs in the menu system would be nice. Balance Tweaks: Vampirism should not consistently haywire. (In fact, it shouldn’t hay wire at all.) Vampirism should be more useful for non-mages. Make lockpicks and spores have a *sell* cost of 0. This Translation is All Wrong!, in addition to having bugs, is too powerful. It needs to be reined in. Some of the new Smithing Crafts need to be addressed. (In particular, and as much as it is a mild anathema to Dredmor’s way of just dumping everything on you depending on its moods, we need leveled materials.) Necronomiconomics is too self-destructive. Ley Lines should be more fun. Craftable thrown weapons. Up the ammo recovery rate, again. Heavy Armours get piercing resistance. Nerf the obvious fireball, again. The last nerf was not sufficiently obvious. Witchys and Monstrous Masks are too nasty, and should spam the revival spell less. Lord Dredmor is *still* not sufficiently a badass (and should have stun resistance.) Acid bolt traps should be taken down a notch. Only one monster zoo per level, please. Named monsters should give you lots more XP. Zoos should have some artifacts in them. Deadshot is just kind of lame. Kleptoblobbies should steal less. Corruption should affect armour as well as weapons. Look, seriously, at every request for an auto-rest button and then try to come up with some way to use it that isn’t awful.
