Too bad pool sipping didn't work. If I don't get a wish from the frost giant vault, I usually score one from Dark Forge. I assume you already dug graves in the Griffyard?

If casting wish doesn't...

Had a recent game with a High Elf Healer where both the Frost Giant and the CoC GV were Undead. Blagh. I closed the Gate but really wanted to clear those vaults, so I created a GEE on D48, leveled...

ADOM is a labor of love produced by some dudes in their sparetime, not the work of a gaming studio (e.g. Darkest Dungeon) or some indie dev doing it full time (e.g. cogmind). Yeah it's a bumpy ride...

My resurrection day character is still trucking along... currently live saccing on an altar in tomb of the high kings to crown. This beastfighter really needs the power boost that comes with a nice...

I haven't played since R23, downloaded R60 yesterday on a whim. Man, the newest ADOM is so polished and gorgeous. And lo and behold, I found a resurrection amulet in outlaw town and learned about...

I cleared D50 with a duelist equipped with rapier of the needle and melee'd everything to death.

I think this is one of the weaker quests in the game. I would prefer that the quest target be a named monster (buffed too) that appears somewhere in an already explored CoC level. I'd gladly...

I have the day off tomorrow so obviously a) I'm drinking copious amounts of beer and b) I'm brainstorming ADOM quests!

The Old barbarian - he teaches you courage and that's a handy skill - but who...

In my opinion, the quests are needed to fill out levels 24 to late 30s. The early game quests get you to 10ish easily, and the DT quests + Pyramid, ToTHK, and DF get you to high teens low twenties...

I wanted to not touch ADOM at all until the updates were all done (40+ new artifacts... drool), but the new tiles were just too much for me. After a very disappointing loss of a monk in BugVille...

Increased HP regeneration, the rate at which depends on the background corruption: the greater the ambient corruption, the faster the HP regeneration....

I think most super pressing things have been mentioned. I would like to see some of the scumming clamped down on. So the following is a list of feature request/bug hybrids I think:

You could grind the big room. Better than the ID imo.

Frankly, a ring of ice is not essential. Fireproof blankets, + artifact/eternium gear should do the trick.

Any forum superstar knows that reg date is the only thing that matters ;)

I was just joking around, no hard feelings.

EDIT: Mr. 81 now, w00t

lol look at this scrub

The trunk version, always available for download in the link above, is updated constantly. Let's you playtest the work in progress stuff.

Fair point. I was oblivious to the fact that TB owned a company and had kids. In light of that, it's really hard to begrudge him for putting ADOM on the backburner.

I don't know about you but I won't be playing ADOM in 20 years. I haven't played it since 2007. I've already won with most classes. What's the point? New content is added to Crawl every week, and...

For the record, the developer behind Dwarf Fortress makes thousands of dollars a month:

The blog Ascii Dreams, maintained by the guy who runs UnAngband, had this to say on the matter:

Don't release it, I don't want to see 14 crappy versions of ADOM.

However, don't sit on it. Find a group of willing programmers and give them the code. Pass on your overarching philosophy of the...

I could do with sound effects for special events and even snippets of music here and there, but the 3D isometric view and other visual aspects of Tower don't appeal to me at all.

If I understand you right, basically: With sufficient skill in shields, a successful block has a chance to inflict damage upon the attacker determined by the type of shield used and proficiency in...

It really depends on the type of shield. A small shield like buckler would hit fast and more accurately, but do less damage and would be better at stunning a target or knocking them off balance. A...

Speaking of arrows, I have to wonder if there should be a penalty of some sort when firing a bow at a target immediately adjacent to you. It seems that aiming and firing and all that would be...

Wow, great discussion guys. I really like F50's thoughts on the impact of being surrounded on a weapon's DV value.

For the record, I personally i think the main advantage of a spear should be its...
