Another way to deal with rust monsters is to carry a weapon not made of metal (such as a Stone Spear or Quarterstaff) as backup.

to make a 4-player co-op action roguelike thing... It's a serious technical step up from single-player, but I'm really liking this framework that I'm testing out.

TOOT BOOT posted:Ultra endings are supposed to be rare, special achievements, not just something you decide to do at the beginning of the game. I'm not sure if you're being facetious/trolling, but why is basing it on a random rare drop better than making it challenge-based? Why not for example put a guaranteed RoLS in the game but put it at the end of a very difficult dungeon that will kill most characters at pre-Kele levels? There has to be a more interesting option than Did you score a lucky RoLS drop Y/N? (I guess you can grind the ID forever but I couldn't be hosed with that before Biskup nerfed ID scumming much less now and that's not at all a more interesting option anyway.) Also, it is something you decide to do at the beginning of the game. If your first kill is the wrong kind of monster you can't do it. You literally have to plan for it from the very start of the game and luck out with the ring/a wish. Wafflecopper fucked around with this message at 10:28 on Feb 27, 2015 |

Well yeah no-one is arguing that that poo poo is weird. It just seems a ridiculous design decision to gate that extra content behind a random drop.

Pladdicus posted:Probably it's just the amount of luck involved. Isn't there a good chance of getting a wish at some point in normal play though? I dunno... yeah depending what you class as good? Completely anecdotal but I'd say I've gone 50/50 at best on getting the amulet as a drop or a wish by the time I've cleared all non-ID content I can without passing Kelevaster, including Darkforge and drinking all pools. 50/50 might not sound that bad but it sucks when you've gone to the trouble of doing all the other prep for an ultra and not died and the amulet just won't drop. As for whether challenges should be a combination of luck and skill or just skill, I think there's room for an element of luck in the survival of your character while attempting to conquer the added difficulties the challenge throws at you, but the luck factor should not revolve around whether or not you get a specific random drop.

Gah, ran out of attempts for ??17. I thought I had it when I noticed Unormal's regdate in US date format is 11/17 but 11 didn't work. Nor did 10/17 for hand of luke or 04/17 for the post date. drat.

I googled NC17 and got an American film classification. Is that what it's referring to?

Is there something I'm missing about the Intercept ability in CoQ? Most enemies only move next to you once, so you get a one-off 0.5% chance of one free attack per enemy? Seems pretty underwhelming.

Even if it does you'd still have to kite them an average of 200 tiles to get one free attack. Hardly seems worth the effort.

Faster Than Light question: What's up with the halberd beam? For the first couple of sectors I thought it was the best thing ever but once I started hitting enemy ships with two shield layers it started doing nothing at all. It didn't say it missed, but it didn't do anything to their shields either. Does it only work against a single layer of shield?

Thanks guys. I thought the halberd laser would still damage their shields though, leaving them open to a shot from another weapon?

TooMuchAbstraction posted:I guess an alternative solution would have been to give all enemies above, say, level 50 a blanket 90% damage reduction and 90% of the hitpoints they would otherwise have according to normal level scaling! That would... make them take a bit longer to kill, that's for sure.

Just tried Armored Commander. Spent a lot of time maneuvering and didn't manage to kill a single thing before my commander died (the sole casualty) when my tank got knocked out in the last battle encounter of the second combat day. I don't think I really get this game. Also is it even possible to reach the second exit before the end of the day without beelining the whole way without ever checking enemy resistance or using artillery?

GreyPowerVan posted:I've been heading into the small cave to start with but having no healing kind of sucks You can always enter the small cave first to spawn the initial mobs at low level, but leave before exploring, go do the quest for healing, then come back. Just try to kill as little as possible so you don't get lots of high level spawns. If you can find them, a scroll of magic mapping and a wand of digging are both useful for helping find/get to the stairs with a minimum of killing. You could even leave it til way later and come back once you have magic mapping and a means of controlled teleportation. Of course you don't have to go at all unless you're going for an ultra-ending or really really need that guaranteed scroll of chaos resistance.

Minor bug to report, along with a workaround: I just bought an ape-fur cloak then went into my equipment screen to equip it. When I selected the "worn on back" slot, the game told me I had nothing to equip for that slot. Going into my inventory screen and selecting auto-equip on the cloak equipped it on my back slot just fine. I am playing a carapace character, but that should only affect the body slot right?

Precrowning gifts are completely random, just be glad you didn't get the Black Tome. quote:On another note, are there any strategies to saving the cute puppy before it dies horribly? I always feel awful 'g'iving it to the little girl. Roll a buff early-game character like a troll barbarian and brute-force your way to it as soon as you get the quest. Even then you may get unlucky and have it spawn in a room with something that can kill it before you reach it. Or it might unavoidably get killed on the way back up. Honestly it's not worth the effort, the reward is trash so the only reason to do it is if you're emotionally attached to that red t and really want it to get its white d back.
