[Ozarck]

Thanks. I like to save my potions of curing for other things, but sometimes I forget what they can be used for. if only I'd had one at teh end on my last character, I might have made it back out of elf:3

[IcyTea31]

Curious thing I just found out: while a scroll of fog can reveal an Unseen Horror, Mephitic Cloud can't. If the idea is that the monster moving around the fog disturbs it, forming an outline, why doesn't it do the same in a cloud of gas?

[Damiac]

That is weird. I assume it's the same deal with all the damaging clouds, but it would make more sense if they all did that...

[frostshotgg]

If learndb is to be believed, the distinction is in opaque vs nonopaque clouds. So steam, ink, smoke, etc. I guess since Meph is transparent it wouldn't work as well or something.

[Dozebôm Lolumzalìs]

It's somewhat weird that Mephitic Clouds are entirely transparent. Shouldn't they be at least a little opaque? They are confusing fumes. Is the idea that they are very thin clouds of confusing fumes?

[EnigmaticHat]

I think the real reason is that if creatures dispelled damaging clouds by moving through them, they wouldn't be very good at area control.

[monk12]

It's somewhat weird that Mephitic Clouds are entirely transparent. Shouldn't they be at least a little opaque? They are confusing fumes. Is the idea that they are very thin clouds of confusing fumes?

The confusion does not stem from the fact that your vision is obscured, but rather from the fact that your vision is impaired, because you've inhaled an unseen gas that has made you go a bit loopy. Presumably the tiles are just there to aid the player, not to say "this shit's green"

[ZeroGravitas]

If Mephitic Cloud had any significant effect on LoS, it would be one of the most important spells in the game.

[Dozebôm Lolumzalìs]

What should I do now? Am I dead? Should I have run away the moment I saw these slime creatures?

[Arcvasti]

The larger slime creatures are quite nasty[The titanic ones can easily deal ~50 damage a hit]. Walking away from them until they split into babby slimes again is the safest plan. Barring lucky blocking/dodging, you're probably screwed in this instance. This is one of those times when being a Formicid is hella inconvenient, since a scroll of blinking would most likely have saved you. Slime creatures can't bypass doors, unlike jellies, so those can be quite effective in splitting them if they're positioned right.

[frostshotgg]

If you go down into what is hopefully that open area below you, the slimes should break apart after a bit and you can quaff ambrosia to heal back up then kill them. The thing about slime creatures is that you never, ever fight them in a corridor because they can glom together and get huge. They'll fall apart in open space after a bit. I'm not sure, but scroll of fear might work on slime creatures.

[monk12]

First try and kite them a bit as slimes tend to fall apart if they aren't in melee (this plan depends on you having some maneuvering room to the bottom left there.) Once you've given them every opportunity to split into less dangerous monsters, read a Fear scroll. If that fails and also you're still alive then probably additional scrolls of fear. Shafting yourself is also a possibility, though I've never played a Formicid for any length of time so I don't know how long that takes (if it's comparable to going down a flight of stairs you won't survive while in melee with a large slime.)

Needless to say, if fear works you need to get to another floor for a rest; up is ideal, but if you need to then down is better than dying.

[Darkening Kaos]

    Hmmm.  I got two questions for the Brains Trust...
    I have a Hill Orc Wanderer, spamming crossbow bolts at everything, (started with 25, then picked up another 26).
   Then, on D:1, picked up a Storm Dragon Hide, is it worth enchanting it to make it into armour?
   Secondly, as I am now on D:2, is it worthwhile taking Pakellas?
   I haven't picked up any books yet, nor a decent melee weapon.

[Antioch]

What should I do now? Am I dead? Should I have run away the moment I saw these slime creatures?
