I got one in an hour over on Discord

I also got PGC-BTP-MTC from ifritdiezel in the Discord, with the rings properly accessible.

Honestly the run is fairly easy, if anything I’m going through too fast (thus low level so a bit behind on talents). Also I should have kept the rotberry for grass generation, ultimately I can deal without it, not using tipped darts is a shame though.

I just need something to kill crabs early on. Beyond that the goal is to avoid melee

Huntress with early RoSS and RoH (and maybe transmute for a better tier 1 weapon) might be able to do it, barkskin to cover for armor and point blank talent in place of melee weapons.

Maybe I’ll give it a shot when I don’t feel like doing standard challenges

Items dropping on a chest is not a new thing, presumably you just haven’t encountered it before

Rare but it happens… time to put the corrosion wand to work then

Alternative solutions: change the tile type with e.g. aqua blast, use some sort of teleporting e.g. chains or blink stones, and several other options depending on what you have

Inspired by, a rogue-like Shattered Pixel Dungeon (at the very least I saw this photo in its subreddit a couple days ago, and we are in PD’s lemmy community)

Going by the phrasing I’d say educated guess. I for one agree, it sounds like a massive liability when you have e.g. data protection laws to think about

I wouldn’t quite say by itself: You need to take a bit of time when you die to figure out why you died and what to try and change about your approach for next time

Leave an empty line.

That way you get separate paragraphs. Lemmy uses Markdown (and so does reddit, actually, but you may be used to the fancy-pants editor)

You’re in luck: the_complete_newb_adventurers_guide

You don’t have to read the whole thing at once, but perhaps the most important tip is to take your time and inspect anything you don’t know with the magnifying glass

I mean congrats but I have to wonder why transmute a RoH? Did you want a challenge?

It’s fast, controllable, with the right investment permanently active and providing blind and cripple conditions, if you fancy a metamorph ally warp is real neat with it…

More walls/further behind a wall IIRC

Think of evasion as a nice bonus, not something to fully rely on. (And honestly same for armor, though it is more reliable).

For this boss specifically I’d suggest stamina potions, toxic essence to AoE deal with the majority of enemies and shrouding fog (2,2,3 just to be on the safe side). Also get stones of aggression for the final phase, and as general backups you can get stones of flock + shock for wand recharge or + psionic blast for straight enemy clearing.

One note on fire extinguishing, sometimes you need to wait a turn, especially in the presence of movement speed boosts. probably needs the turn timer to cross a certain spot to extinguish fire on hero

Might just want to pop an unblessed Ankh if available

Tip: when you intend to ascend with the hero item, just leave it on the ground by the stairs before you go down; pick it up on the way out

I just want to note one thing, it’s absolutely valid to spend a couple upgrades on low tier gear, if the alternative is dying before you can get your hands on the high tier stuff.

And to me “This weapon benefits more from upgrades” seems pretty clear.
