Dexters Secret posted:i need someone to explain to me how to invest stat points because i've always just invested in one and never touched the others (int for mages, str for berserkers, etc) and my understanding is that is wrong There's nothing wrong with that, just point the points into what you want to do most. Str for wearing heavy armour, int for casting spells, dex for dodging.

PleasingFungus posted:the thing with the stats on level-up is they don't really matter all that much I mean almost every game is lost on poor tactical play but it's a huge disadvantage to, say, not raise dex on an EV character and have 7 less EV.

can't say i'm a fan of wands auto-identifying on pickup now. pointing one at some enemies and hoping for the best was part of the fun. idc if it was ~optimal~ to test them on walls instead, i dont roll like that

Hey if it were anything else(except healing or haste or something) he'd probably have straight up killed you, now there's a chance.

Crazy Yuif says wacky random stuff but if you are confused all the stuff he says makes sense and is actually fairly insightful.

Jeffrey posted:Sil's combat can be fully explained (to a degree in which a programmer could write it themselves) in a few paragraphs, crawl's requires talking about a million variables and lognormal distributions. Crawl has been slowly cutting out the archaic bits of linley's crawl with a scalpel, the sil devs hacked off the bad parts of angband with a triple sword on day 1. (Okay I don't actually know sil dev history but that's what it seems like.) sil was being worked on for 10 years before the first version was even released

Parallax Scroll posted:thought this was just me the best thing to do is press ~ and set macros for your most used spells. if you have magic dart on "c" you can make the macro "zcf" and bind it to 1 or something. you basically create a hotkey for "cast magic dart at default (usually meaning nearest) target" this way.

I should be doing this but I'm too lazy to find keys I can conveniently use.

is it worth using a +4 crushing flail even if it gives me -2 str? I don't really know the math behind calculations and if that's worth it or not. on a berserker.

Chei only slows down your movement right? so you can still strangle 8 goblins per turn, just not run away all that fast when its loving u over..

i'm having a lot of fun with this HEFE. spellcasters can be a lot of fun and and have more interesting tactical choices than a melee fighter, but the game is a lot slower paced and sometimes i'm too impatient for that.

maybe Oka could gift a few rings to octopodes. he'd probably become the only god people would use for octopodes, though
