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.

Yeah, he's been really buffed from what I hear. I plan to keep a safe distance with highest-tier Promethean spells.

Right now I'm on dungeon level 4 on Dwarvish with No Time To Grind. I don't know what it is but it feels a little too easy compared to non-NTTG games. I might have to switch to GR if I keep going like this without taking a scratch.

Yeah, it's awesome, albeit a bit easy.

On the other hand, it's the first roguelike I've beaten, without wizard or exploration mode or somesuch.

What difficulty was this? On Going Rogue I pretty much killed him with one bolt, he didn't die instantly but he soon succumbed to the flames afterwards. I didn't even have a decent crossbow!

Seriously, I find Dredmor to be incredibly underwhelming. He's never been any sort of trouble to me at all, as long as I can reach him I can off him without any real problems.

Flames are broken. Being set on fire is non-resistable and the damage it does is percentile based (this is yet another reason why Psionics is broken, but it applies to Necro/Pyromancy as well). You can just set Dredmor on fire a couple of times and run away for an instant win.

And yes, that was on GR.

[Myroc]

Well that explains it then. He still seems unnervingly easy, though. I'm honestly more wary of arch-diggles whenever I'm in Pandemonium.

EDIT/WARNING: A friend mentioned to me he had issues buying this as it may not technically have been released yet. Purchase at your own risk.

DLC appears to have dropped on Steam.

Something terrible has happened.  Dungeons of Dredmor no longer works for me on Steam.  I open it, I see that little gray box that says it's loading, and that's it.  Nothing happens.  I can technically still play the game, if I navigate to the actual folder and run the game's executable, but then I'm not on steam so I don't get achievements or any of that and it doesn't say I'm playing on Steam.  That's just unacceptable.

Anybody know what I could do?

Steam was down for some "unscheduled maintenance". I was having the same problem with another game, and when I tried restarting Steam it locked up at the 'synching to Steam Cloud" thing. Seems to be resolved now though.

YESSSSSS. And...bought.
/EDIT: FUUUUU-- It's not installing apparently it's not ready yet.

So I've been messing around with a sword/smith/heavy armor and stuff build. Also it has burglary for usefulness. Doing pretty well so far, I actually got past the second floor. It was also on NTTG though so that may have something to do with it.

I'll have to try to get that DLC. The thing is, I've had problems with trying to buy things on Steam in Europe.

[freeformschooler]

Looks like the DLC is going up today for real. It's already on the store but (according to gaslamp) not properly functional. Time to get my other bro her Christmas present.

Still no HiB patch 

Mind you, I'm just annoyed, not genuinelly angry, as the guys behind gaslamp games do seem to have good will towards these things (eg: the game and the DLC are dirt cheap, and they keep adding content for free in patches, unlike some others I could name *cough* positech*ahem*, but the HiB affair was a bit of a mess, what with the linux crashes, and the 1.08 delay.

Team Meat is even worse. "You know all those things we told you we would do Very Soon (TM)? Well screw you. We're going to ignore it because we decided we wanted to work on something else."

Guys guys guys. I have a solution for something that was discussed long ago. Is Dredmor too slow-paced even with animations all the way up for you? Use this. Try to resist cheating, and instead attach it to the Dredmor process, click "enable speedhack" and enter 1.5 and hit apply. Dredmor now runs at nearly a regular roguelike's pace. Isn't that great? I discovered this when my Fire Wyrm summon was taking forever with its attacks and slowing down my dungeon exploring when fighting.

DLC is working now, by the way. Just tried it out and went into a mysterious portal. That was a short game.
