Got a few firsts for myself,

First win with a Kobold, Chaos Knight, and Xom worshipper.

http://crawl.akrasiac.org/rawdata/Vactor/morgue-Vactor-20170531-210926.txt

I tried one of the characters with the most possible points for a win, as there had only been a few wins by people playing any of those backgrounds, ended up netting 442 extra points for the background.

I never thought i'd say it, but Xom is actually kinda fun.  I discovered he pairs very well with a stabber.  In the past I always tried to be tanky and durable  to survive him, but a stealthy stabber can take advantage of his love of confusion.

Gratz Vactor!
Trying a stabber myself... I deserved that:

My best crit yet

[AlStar]

Went down to Lair:2 and almost immediately found a ghost that was way too tough for me, so I decided to go clear out the main dungeon for a few more levels.

I just came back, and I've now killed 4 separate ghosts, all on this one level. What kind of crazy crap happened here?

The ghost of TollerGames the Fighter, a journeyman HOFi of Okawaru (Lair:2)
The ghost of ArcMage the Distorting Orc, a journeyman HOAK of Lugonu (Lair:2)
The ghost of Volgon99 the Grappler, a journeyman TrHu (Lair:2)
The ghost of PeteStorm the Basher, a novice DrVM of Lugonu (Lair:2)

I almost want to deliberately splat a high-level ghost somewhere early on just to be annoying. Unfortunately if a player dies on a level other than the one the ghost is on, the ghost is still not available to be used in other game (at least from what I've read).

[Graven]

Yeah if your ghost spawns on a dude, and they die on another floor your ghost is done haunting.

Gratz Vactor!
Trying a stabber myself... I deserved that:

My best crit yet

This was my first sucessful stabber char, and what i really learned was that you cannot count on getting stabs on sleeping monsters, a good portion will be woken up, regardless of how careful you are, so you need to start bringing online some skills that let you get stabs on monsters while they are fighting you.  Having summons helps get distract stabs, and being able to cast things like confuse and invisibility helps a lot, but even so, by the time i got to Zot 5, I still couldn't kill an orb of fire.  I tried fighting a solo one on zot 3 several times to figure out how to do it, and eventually i just did an orb tele-sprint and didn't bother killing everything, just burned as many consumables as i could to stay alive.

[FakerFangirl]

What should my str to dex ratio be on vampire skald? I've been maxing dex.

[Tegga21]

got my 4th win, my first as an ogre in .20 they really messed up ogres, maces went form +3 to -1

[FakerFangirl]

Next Nemelex is Kobold Air Ele. A decent combo since they like start with amulet of the gourmet mutation and gain exp fast. Wiki recommends Sif Muna. Train your dodge early and look for bouncing lightning setups.

[Graven]

Tried one, first amulet I put on was cursed inaccuracy, in my desperate attempts to find a remove curse scroll I stumbled upon a randart robe, which was also cursed, and -cast.

At which point I died.

Not the best first impression tbh.

[Not good with names]

Quick tip on anyone going for a VpSk:  Stay alive (full on blood) the entire time.  You don't get fancy resists, but you do get troll regen the entire time (With Regen spell that's 2 HP per aut).  Very useful.

[Tegga21]

I find Vampires so fiddly with the blood thing, personally. Probably one of my least favourite races.

got my 4th win, my first as an ogre in .20 they really messed up ogres, maces went form +3 to -1

Ogres were 'too incentivized' to use maces, apparently. I think the real culprit behind this is the meta having decided that shields are weak at the moment, when in my experience they are anything but. People weren't properly valuing the trade-off in defence that Ogres were making in order to use those GSCs.

Anyway, I see the Champions are at #15 at the moment, with a fairly small gap between them and the next few teams above. Could we see another Bay12 top ten showing? Here's hoping.

Trog gave me a GSC artifact, and I did NOT use it, no thanks. that SH wins games

[Tegga21]

Went for back to back wins after work tonight, made a gr fi (easiest win) of gozag


got the 2 in a row OgBe>GrFi and *heavily* scummed 80k turns at the end to get highest AC+ev, exited with 99 ac + 49 ev

[Graven]

Got a rune on my VpSk^Hep, but holy moly is it the biggest drag ever. It doesn't help that webtiles are currently slow as heck in and out of themselves, and I hit the worst labyrinth I've ever had.

It also doesn't help that I have 0 idea how to build this - I'll have to settle on a Dragon armour soon, but I have no resistances so no easy choice. I could go Swamp, I guess.
