I will switch to an everburning torch if I have another piece of equipment that gives light (like a helm of light or a certain pair of gloves). It's nice to stop worrying about oil.

Whenever my character finds a scroll of enchant armor or *ea*, he reads it on his boots just for the sake of trying. They started in the single digits, and so far they are up to +12 ac. I don't think it's worth it to buy the scrolls if something is at +11. With high dex, I'd steal them if they were ...

I would like to see Recall broken up a little. Perhaps you can fetch items at Conveyence level 15, recall to/from the dungeon at level 23, and swap positions at level 30. I'd like to see a mage that can fetch items magically, but it's way too expensive to pump up Conveyance that high. Fetching items...

Topic: Preserve mode?
Replies: 7
Views: 5317

As far as I understand, it goes like this: With preserve mode on, an artifact can be generated more than once, but it no longer appears after the player identifies them (whether they keep them or sell them or leave them on the floor). With preserve mode off, an artifact can be generated only once, w...

My thoughts exactly, Neil. With preserve mode off, I would hate to use telepathy to scan a monster in the middle of a vault I'm not ready for (or can't reach), and see it is carrying, say, an "arkenstone".

Sounds like this could lead back into the discussion about getting (very very small) skill advances for using your skills, like a sorcerer getting rudimentary combat skill through the experience of fighting for a long time, etc.

The closest thing I can imagine that would work with the current skill system is to add guilds... so a paladin would take training from the temple and the fighters' guild, and maybe drop by somewhere else for magic item training. But I think at this point that would be a ridiculous amount of work. I...

Earlier today I yoinked a randart with a +12 pval from a Speed Ring Market. That pval applies to speed, strength, intelligence, charisma :roll:, and -- :shock: -- attack speed! It sustains strength and grants resistance to acid, confusion and chaos. Who needs extra arms with a ring like this? This a...
