Demons don't spawn in orc:2, but there are orc summoners that summon them.

Interesting. I didn't know you could find Pan entrances outside the depths.

Figured it was time to pull in a win, so i went  for a 3 rune MiFi, and nabbed the tier 3 Test Subject banner after getting Yred off an faded altar.

There are some scripted entrances. This one is relatively new, I think. Orc was revamped since .17 to shorten it.

It's a similar situation to Lair; there's one Lair:8 with an entrance to Hell and a few medium-strength demons outside of it.

anyway I ended up winning that game with 4 runes because I couldn't be bothered to do Hell/Pan/Tomb. They've made some hilarious chances to Zot:5, too.

In the rest period between my final exam, and I've been doing DCSS ._.;
There's a ton of changes I've not expected (Orc Mines are so short...), but I'm pretty happy that I'm getting a good streak of pretty much many things--mutagenic pieces of meat are still the same as I remember, but I'm leaning on the positives.
Will try to aim for a win, despite not remembering anything past 0.7. .-.

E: I've been consuming Sky Beasts...and now I'm stuck with an array of GOOD MUTATIONS alone (since the only bad one got cancelled out :D). Now stuck with a stack of 4 more meats, I am very reluctant to continue, but I also want to continue. :I
They still DO have the Potion of beneficial mutation right? I only got one cure mutation, and am currently floundering between Elven Halls (going to the 2nd floor), going further in the Lair (going to 3), or traversing the depths (currently at dungeon 12).

The clan page seems bugged out for me. It hasn't updated anything in a while and hasn't even NOTICED my current game.



After getting hella exasperated and taking yesterday off, I seem to be getting back into the swing of things. I love Blade Hands and Qazlal.

! of Beneficial mutation are pretty rare - pretty sure you can do a standard 3-runer and never see one, but sometimes you find a stack of 3 on D5 and party. !of Cure mutation have been made more common due to the amulet of resist mutation getting the axe.

I don't understand your Branch order  - did you mean one of the Lair sub-branches? Swamp, Snake and Spider are all going to be safer than Elven Halls 2 for most dudes. Elf 2 can have some pretty aggressive hellfire users, as well as horrible stuff like distortion dancing quick blades. Whereas Lair 3 might have some river rats and the occasional Black mamba?

If you haven't cleared Lair, you should also be wary of heading all the way down to D15 - the Vaults and Depths stair vaults can sometimes be pretty nasty.

Whelp, just managed to lose yet another character with 2 runes.  :'(

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong - I should be winning with these characters, not dying to assorted trash.

I feel like the game's difficulty spike has moved from around the lair until after a couple runes, and I think it might be due to the change in Orc(less xp available maybe).  I'm not sure, i just feel like in the past if you got one rune, you had a darn good chance of winning, and this tournament i've lost plenty of chars that had a few runes.

I agree that the midgame is harder now, especially for casters. They just don't have the mana pool or the right spells(unless lucky) to deal with some of the stuff you are likely to encounter.

Phew. Finally clocked my first win of the tournament, so I feel a bit less like deadweight. It's a paltry 5-rune win though, and, outside of it being a Minotaur, beautifully prepped for a full win in the hands of anybody more skilled (or maybe if I felt like risking it...). Posting the mortem in the main thread.

Ooo, and I got Speed Demon III too.
