Incredulous Dylan posted:What would you folks recommend as a Roguelikelike for this specific usage scenario - I want to get high as hell and explore and fight stuff and maybe find some cool or overpowered stuff if I'm really lucky. Permadeath and all that preferred with no ASCII. I loved Binding of Isaac, FTL and once when I was pretty drunk Munchkin Quest Hop onto crawl webtiles and roll some troll chaos knights and see what xom gifts you.

Just figured out how to find my logfiles on the server. Heres my current dude. http://ancardia.us.to/adom_users/lawman/oggasmas.vlg code:As a beastfighter what kind of armor should I be aiming for since I had this nice splint mail of carrying that got blown to pieces by a trap so im using the ancient mummy wrapping now.

Space Bat posted:You may have already sold it, but one of the Dwarf town quests gives you a suit of blessed mithril chain mail which is pretty decent. Really just looking out for anything that's mithril or better with a high PV is the best plan. Still, if you haven't been crowned yet hang onto those wrappings so you get something better then Cold Immunity if you get crowned. Already got crowned with lightning immunity and im pretty sure that mithril chain mail was actually really bad.

German Joey posted:since you're a beastfighter, you should aim to get the highest protection values as you can because you can't wear a shield. have you done darkforge yet? you have far slayer (have you been training up your xbow skill?? train this up!!) and multiple quarrels of construct slaying, so you should have no problem with the golems. if you're feeling nervous busting in the front door, you could even backdoor it if you have cTele installed because you also have multiple zaps worth of teleportation wands. the weapons there won't matter for you, but you can usually find some decent armor up there, a dragon scale mail for instance. once i even found the robes of resistance there. I just did it and I got nothing except for some plain mithril chain mail. edit: Also German Joey 1.2 fucks ctele in darkforge  though I probably found some good weapons to sacrifice or something.

madjackmcmad posted:I think the silhouettes in the ToMe art really helps, the enemies are pretty clearly defined, no? I mean, quick, which one of those Crawl orcs has a bow? Which one is fast and probably gets two attacks in a round? That's what I was shooting for in the Dungeonmans orc set: I think one of the main problems is that they don't really tell you when that orc warlord (the big beefy red orc) is has quivered a tomahawk (this is actually probably an obsolete complaint since throwing random poo poo just got nerfed) and is about to bean you in the head with it for 50 damage or if hes wearing some GDA or some really good plate mail or something.

Ibram Gaunt posted:Are there any good newbie guides for getting a chaotic character off the ground in ADOM? I'm new to ADOM in general and Chaos Knight has been a pretty fun but most information/guides I can find are for neutral/lawful characters. Chaos knights are a straight up challenge class, (they are not allowed to do many things and are supposed to aim for one of the special endings instead of the normal one) my suggestion would be to roll something like a troll barbarian or orc archer.

Ibram Gaunt posted:Oh alright, with how easy I was killing things at the start I assumed they were a newbie one. Thanks. Troll barbarians have a good chance to knab vanquisher which is the best two-handed weapon in the entire game and will be skilled with it when you are crowned. quote:Vanquisher is most notable for having seven slaying powers -- meaning it is guaranteed to land a critical hit on any monster except beasts, insects and plants

oiseaux morts 1994 posted:Crawl does have a wacky flavour, but I think what MrBims is trying to point out that a lot of (bad) *bands just throw wacky poo poo into them without concern for balance, gameplay or rough thematic consistency. PosCheng looks to follow in that noble lineage. Actually lately thanks to marvinPA there has been a no fun or wacky things movement in crawl thats getting really annoying.

SageAcrin posted:Do note, though, that if you're looking for a dedicated summoning playstyle, ToME is probably better for it. Someone never played an old Mummy Summoner apparently.  Anyways if anyone wants a good laugh take a look at the Slash'Em extended page. http://nethackwiki.com/wiki/Slash%27EM_Extended by laugh I mean nervous laugh as you slowly lose faith in humanity

The lockdown has made me crazy enough to try and beat nethack again with the new version. I noticed they made some major e-word changes. Anything else I should take note of?

Robo Reagan posted:Is there anything that fits in the baby's first Roguelike like Dungeons of Dredmor? Finally getting in to this game and I want something to look forward to when I'm done with it. Good story or humor is a huge plus. Part of the reason it's hard for me to get in to some of these balls hard games is I don't have a story or anything to keep me going. Suffer with me in nethack op. update: about to clear out fort ludios and snagged a wand of death now I just need to find a charging scroll.
