Discussion / Progressing on UV Arch Ao Lt. How do I improve?
« on: January 13, 2018, 17:03 »
After getting HMP ArchAoLT with relative ease I am trying to do the same on UV.
For sacrificed 20 slots you gain a whopping 30% speed which makes very early game even easier, than standard game.
I have 2 ideas to try.
One is melee build with vampire. Use shotgun in early game while leveling. In lategame your vampiricism will sustain you.
Another idea is to get to Armoury somehow, find nano mod and eventually build a nanomanufacture/nanoshrapnel weapon.
In both cases I want WizKid on non technician.
I can clear up to chained court fairly well with my build. It is levels 6-7 that I struggle with. The number of sergeants drops limiting your ammo supply, the number of armoured enemies requiring multiple shots to kill even at point blank raises. And at that point I am still not strong to rely on melee, especially if level is full of open spaces.
My build so far is Fin->Bad->Bru->Bru->Ber->MVamp in preparation for melee lategame and Wz
What should I do to improve? Is WizKid a good skill to pursue?

Post Mortem / [H|AoMr+Ao100|93%|YAVP] Sharpshooter grind
« on: January 11, 2018, 15:47 »
My first HMP win. Ao100 feels somewhat easier, than standard game. Getting an early blaster and combat was very nice, but game was not too hard even with simple pistols modded. Being umodable Grammaton is not as strong, as I hoped. The very end was a boring grind, I started skipping levels and did not reach lvl 25. Inquisitor set is totally overpowered in lategame with so many fire based enemies and lava all over the place. Had onyx and nano pack unused...

Discussion / Skulls

Are skulls considered good? Good enough to risk going to city of skulls. Can I use these in Berserk, Shotgunnery or Marksman challenges?

0.9.9.6 / [M|AoMr|76%|YAVP] First win and impressions. Sharpshooter.
« on: January 01, 2013, 15:01 »
Hello. Just won my first game on "not-hard" difficulty. I took technician marksman. Instead of taking dualgunner I went for sharpshooter. The idea was to get double benefit from power mods that I have plenty as WK. With only one gun I can use ammo chains for fast reload, Even with reloader trait you won't double reload as fast. Having high rate of fire and decent damage even when I need to fire much more than 6 shots. With 17 damage per hit enemy armor is not an issue. (Inability to one-shot lost souls is somewhat annoying, wish I could get 20 damage).
While the game is much shorter than Dungeon Crawl SS (which I won a couple of times and enjoyed a lot) it feels very fun and well balanced. Ability to pick difficulty is what many roguelikes miss. "Medium" difficulty is not very hard, just takes a few YASDs to learn it. I tried some games on H and on UV and the things do become scary rather fast. In the future I\d rather play DoomRL than commit to a ful game of Dungeon Crawl or (god save) Angband.
Hoping to get my hands on version 1.0.0 soon.
