Haha, found a trap called "Dragonbreath caltrops", tried to disarm, and it said i have a -10 percent chance of disarming it :v:
[QUOTE=Aperture fan;37197984]Is it just me, or do the Wizard Lands feel really... lacking? They're all (from what I've seen, about 4 of them) small, 5 minute, linear paths with low level loot. Am I missing something?[/QUOTE]
I got one shotted by Evil clones in the wizard lands twice in a row. Not touching a lever in the wizard lands again.

I'm high enough level so it takes 2 shots for the Evil clones to kill me. I can take them out with a long process of summoning hordes of zombies as distractions and wearing them down with rocket punches. If they get too close I rocket jump away.
Takes a while, but gets the job done.

Yay
Mysterious portals are awesome.
I went into one with a polearms build, and I immediately was greeted by two unique bosses from level 12 and level 14. Needless to say, I died.
Then I go in with another character, and the first item I find is Ulmish Blacksteel Platemail. In the next corner I find a clockwork bolt thrower.
I put a Hordraic Lutefisk Cube inside a Hordraic Lutefisk Cube. In the middle of a Monster Zoo.
The results were... not what I expected, but nonetheless helpful.

OH GOD, now I need to try this.
See, this is one of the greatest features of the game: When you try stuff you aren't entirely sure what the hell is going to happen, and it leaves things up to experimentation. That is the true mark of a rogue-like.
That and the perma-death v:v:v

[sp]Just... be sure you have some sort of explosive (or flame, not sure what the damage was) resistance.[/sp]
This is my most played game behind only Oblivion and TF2. I am really finding a lot of help from Egyptian Magic's drainos that help my warrior out.
[QUOTE=Aperture fan;37202888][sp]Just... be sure you have some sort of explosive (or flame, not sure what the damage was) resistance.[/sp][/QUOTE]
[sp] Both: it explodes and the tile you're on gets set on fire IIRC [/sp]
so i accidentally discovered the "mage's magic maille" bug while playing, which allows you to infinitely stack the skill and basically make it so you never get hurt. The first thing I did with this newly found knowledge was abuse it. And then later found out it's been reported multiple times before, months ago.
[sp]It's the 2nd skill in the warlockery skillset, that gives +1 to all resistances (except acid) and +1 to armor. It can stack every time you go up/down a staircase, or ~200 steps(?).[/sp]

Thankfully I had beserk rage so my mana got reset back to 0 frequently, otherwise my mana would probably be in the -1mil range.
it feels like cheating though, so i'll have to remember to re-do this character without stacking the maille.
Finally I manage to get a good run, but then I see a mysterious portal I can't resist. I ended up in a lower floor with high level monsters that take half my health per hit. I try running, but get blocked in by several monsters and die once again a horrible death.
Some day, i'll finish this game. [img]http://www.facepunch.com/fp/ratings/rainbow.png[/img]

And I thought going into negative mana with it was broken.
How'd you even do that?
[QUOTE=Pokey McFork;37212793]And I thought going into negative mana with it was broken.

When the skill is activated once, it causes your mana to drop by [Damage]. So because I had somewhere around 60 or so, it would be [Damage]*60 every time I got hit. So if it would have done 11 damage to me normally, it would instead be 660 mana damage per hit. Maybe a little less than that i'm not sure on the algorithm they use.
I didn't really do much else other than stack the buff. Apparently a recent patch to DunDred reintroduced the bug, as I saw a [url=http://community.gaslampgames.com/threads/stacking-mages-mana-maille.4170/]bug report thread dating aug 2nd[/url] about it as well.
New Blogpost!

I find it quite fun but I keep dying in the beginning because I just try to kick things to death

Ahh, thank you for clearing up. I wasn't sure about the Big Game Hunter skill.
[b]WHAT THE FUCK[/b]
Free expansion pack? Why did I not know of this? :v:
I'm starting to think, how many people aren't aware of the free DLC?
[QUOTE=The Lone Spy;37225418]I'm starting to think, how many people aren't aware of the free DLC?[/QUOTE]
Probably cause it doesn't have a name :v:
Also I'm tempted to trade crap in TF2 to get This game and it's expansions....Don't have money to buy them so this is my only option.
Shouldn't cost me more than 4 Keys hopefully.

I'd do it for 5, if you were looking for someone.
[QUOTE=mutated;37226949]I'd do it for 5, if you were looking for someone.[/QUOTE]
I'd rather only pay the 4 honestly.
We can discuss stuff on steam when you're on I guess.
So I used the Horadric Lutefisk Cube on the Zoo it was pretty fiery and I also used Bolt of Mass Destruction, then I Killed Brax and robbed him, his goons showed up to get me, I killed them, escaped to next level floor and sold the robbed stuff to other Brax. :v:
Also this is on level 10 I believe
