Okay, Psionics is definitely better than it was. Pyro + Shove + maxed Blood Magic + lvl 4 Vampirism = infinite mana, area lockdown on demand, high direct damage and massive DOT potential. Even if something's seriously bothering you there's absolutely nothing stopping you from shoving it onto a far platform/behind solid objects/through a door and dealing with it later. Bar some random bullshit (or another serious beefing up of Dredmor), this run looks to be a free win for me.

Word of warning: If you craft anything, be sure to scroll the crafting window back to the top. It's a known bug and I think they said they're releasing a hotfix. After not scrolling back to the top, any time a different crafting tool is opened, you may see an empty recipe book. The game may crash upon attempting to scroll at that point in time.

I find it amusing that diggles may shout "FUS RO DAH" now.

I still can't complain much though about overpowered skills, because honestly, I'm not a master of the game so on higher dungeon levels I'll take all the cheap tactics I can get.

Did the Eel monsters always shoot those acid bolt attacks? I remember Shoving one to death over a period of about 100-200 turns a few weeks ago. Wasn't able to fight back. Now I tried that just for kicks and after about 30 turns it shot this acid type attack directly at me, killing me within 2 turns somehow. I didn't catch all of it.

Yeah, and it stays between saves apparently, so you might get stuck like that in some situations. Oh well. They're good about the hotfixes.

The Desura version was forgotten or something, we didn't get an update
I bought it so I could easily play on Linux, but now it looks like it backfired.

Sadness!

They've been talking about this on their twitter, it should be a day or so.

When I first reloaded my save after taking a break from Dredmor for a few months, I was surprised to have a magma eel (That was stuck in the floor hilariously) spit a fireball at me. So yeah apparently eels do that now, not sure at what point exactly that was introduced.

Would have been really great if I'd known this a few hours ago This is why I should always wait a few days before playing dredmor patches.

They've been able to do that for a while, at least before this latest update. Can be deadly if you find the room on the first floor with the Lutefisk cube and two Eels. I still find that some are too stupid to figure it out though and just sort of float around as I pepper them with plastic bolts.

Edit! I just realized that Gaslamp Games is operating out of Victoria. Like an hour's drive from here. Never in my wildest dreams could I have hoped it would be this easy to stalk them.

Awww.  I can't expand my inventory with crafting items, and the success of crafting skills is based on RNG now?  :<

[ChairmanPoo]

I hate the crafting system, so I stick to mushrooms.

[Seriyu]

Oh man, No time to grind mode solved the only problem I had with this game, which was progression felt too slow. And the crafting menu is nice now too.

And I've never failed a crafting recipe Farce, so I'm not sure. I guess it might? It's not terrible if it is though.

[Darkmere]

I think the crafting fail means you can only make things you've found recipes for, which is RNG-based. That or the crafting menu crash, which is even more annoying.

This. You won't 'fail' to craft something but you can only craft something you've found the recipe for.

Got to the bottom floor for the first time. Found Dredmor. Readied my specially saved bolt of mass destruction. Miss-clicked, causing my idiot character to move and get one-shotted by a legendary arch-diggle. With permadeath on.

Kill me now.

The BoMD wouldnt've done much anyway. Last time I tried doing that, I shot him with at least three then threw a Holy Hand Grenade at him, and he was still above 50% health.
