Sigmund hits you. You die... DUNGEON CRAWL STONE SOUP ITT
Trollstormur:
it's amulet of the gourmand and it's an ability that is unique to the amulet and mutations.
fast metabolism doesn't become an issue until really far down into the dungeon, where you fight entire levels of shit that does not drop a corpse. all of hell as well as the realm of zot.
even in the lower levels of the dungeon 20-25 you can find things to nom.
Alex C:
True enough, but that far into the game is exactly when I start to actually be a pinch irritated if I die, so I rather prefer my inconveniences to be present in the early game rather than the mid-to-late game. Honestly, it's not a very big problem, but with ogre mages it is a pinch annoying because unlike standard ogres and trolls they cannot just stuff their faces at will without owning an Amulet of the Gourmand first.
Scandanavian War Machine:
how many levels are there, exactly?
i'm always proud of myself if i make it to, like, level 7...but...20-25? fuck that shit must be insane.
Alex C:
Well, honestly, I'd say it's the first 7 levels or so of the dungeon are actually the most dangerous, simply because your character hasn't had a chance to really develop a truly consistent offense yet, much less diversify. By the time your character hits level 15 or so he should really be pretty decent at whatever his shtick is as well as have a good bag of tricks to work with (be they spells or wands) in case of emergencies. There's still things you have to worry about, but when you die it's a lot more likely to be because you made a genuinely poor decision rather than had a run of bad luck vs. a gnoll with glowing mace. In short, the first part of the game is hardest because your dude is incompetent, whereas the mid-to-late game is tricky mostly because you need to tread water and hold your own while seeking the tools you need to handle unique situations, like grabbing a ring of poison protection before wandering into the Snake Pits. (P.S. FUCK GREY SNAKES)

Has anyone tried this over SSH yet? It looks like it could be good fun.
