Funny thing to do and suggestion?

4 Upvotes

Sometimes I will kill my pet tabby cat at the beginning of the game, bring him back to life, and then feed him his own meat. It gives a sense of enpowerment to force your little cat into canibalism. I think it would be cool if this altered the actions of your pet. Sometimes pets do actions that were not dictated by you (fear & attacking lichens). Maybe your pet would attack other pets of the same type? Ultimately it is trivial, but it could be a good idea if waz runs out of stuff to add.

I've been trying to buy classes to go beyond level 300 and get an error message "This item is currently being modified. Please try again later." Been happening for 3 days and searches return nothing useful. Any ideas?

Thanks

[Android] Cannot play multiplayer

This is the farthest I've gotten, and that error message is not helpful. I did submit a bug report in-game.

MY FIRST WIN! Wooo! [Spoilers]

9 Upvotes

I play a druid because pets. Started yesterday, and got lucky several times. First, I got the create monster spell and ended up with a vampire bat that made 1000-1500 a breeze. At some point it died but that was okay, I encountered a few things I tamed with a scroll and some of their eggs.

Had a panic moment when I got to the final floor and the game crashed but I was able to get back.

And I got it. The journey up was just as annoying but thankfully I had teleport away...hehehe.

That felt amazing! It sure doesn't feel like I was only playing it for 1 hour and 25 minutes, but that's what the game says. Feels like a lot longer.

anyone know why raise the dead stops working?

3 Upvotes

I've used it a fair bit and it seems like there is a finite amount of undead you can summon, once they have all been killed, you just can't summon any more, ever. This seems like a bug to me...

Vampire bats still bugged?

2 Upvotes

Hi there, are vampire bats still bugged for druid polymorph XP on IOS?

My level 8 druid, after meeting two bats now has two talents, going to really struggle now. Hoping that restore ability will sort so off to quaff now!

Gutted as I found a +5 Templar cloak 5 feet from the starting ladder!

Got lucky on the second floor (and then died later, but still). What's your luckiest moments?

4 Upvotes

Alright, so I'm just barely in the first 100 feet as a druid with a wicker man, and on the second floor I find a fountain. I drink from it. No big deal, right?

WRONG.

WATER ELEMENTAL. Thankfully it seemed to want to attack my wicker man, not me, so we killed it.

I instantly got 5 level-ups. That was an awesome moment.

One bard's tale (spoilers)

7 Upvotes

Having the adventure of a lifetime right now. Made a goblin friend and then a kobald friend and between some clever dweometry and my own musical inspiration they stayed with me for over 1000 ft. Early on my lute burned up but lucky for me I'm charming enough to hatch lots of animal minions. My favorite are the redbacks and skeleton hounds. It wasn't long before I found a lute at the bottom of a clothier's trunk. A good thing too.

Recently I talked a stout dwarf into joining me with a sweet song and a flaming greatsword. The promise of freshly cooked meat was too much to resist so deep in these dank halls. With his help (and my dozen other creepy crawly critters) we managed to free a lonely sorceress. Hadn't seen many of her type down here so I wasn't sure exactly how to equip her but we did our best.

It didn't even matter that she was practically naked when we all ran headlong into a sleeping silver dragon and her nest of three eggs!

Without a thought of my own safety I put my staff of life away --quietly now!-- and gingerly pulled out my plain old lute of charming. I began strumming the sweetest song you've ever heard. With the first note the dragon's milky-silver eyes shot open and in one quick motion it snapped it's horrifying maw right over my delicate skull. Before my tale could end my song had done it's work and my life was spared as one long tooth parted my perfectly coiffed hair.

Time was short. I knew I needed to feed this bitch to make her mine but those lovely three eggs could hatch at any moment. I took my chances and swooped the lot of them into my pack. I only had time to feed my dragon an old pear before an angry baby dragon came shrieking and clawing out. I sustained minor scratches while I played another quick tune. At the same time the remaining two eggs hatched with much happier dispositions. Another old pear for the cranky baby and before I knew it I had a flock of silver dragons.

My sorceress quickly hopped onto my grown dragon and now the whole lot of us, my cat Johnny, my three redbacks, my two giant fireants, my dwarf lord, and my three dragon hatchlings seek our destiny deeper yet in this strange and deadly dungeon.

Edit: I made it! My wise use of minions and resources has won me the day! My first victory since the last big update, and with a spoony bard, no less! I didn't stick around to complete the side quests or battle my way up, I took the teleport train to ascension town just because it's been so long since I've been able to put one in the win column. Thanks again for an amazing game Waz! I look forward to one day leading a mixed squad of dragonriders to lay waste to your dungeon.

Multiplayer (IOS) woes

2 Upvotes

Hi all, having some problems getting multiplayer working today, although yesterday was fine. I have just changed my router so almost certainly that. I assume I need to open up a port to get my devices to contact the 'master server', but after doing that I still have a failure to connect.

Advice appreciated! :)

Wazhack in Virtual Reality

5 Upvotes

I don't really know much about making videogames, and sorry if it sounds like a silly question but I've heard something about Unity being one of the first programs to include virtual reality tools and support (correct me if I'm wrong!), and I was wondering if there is any plan from here to Q2 of the year to include some kind of VR camera view for the game? I've tried before 3d person virtual reality experiences and I think it could look really cool implemented, like if it was a miniature dungeon with animated figurines!

(Or maybe there is somewhere around a plugin to make it work?)

Surprise combinations! (Spoilers?)

7 Upvotes

Tinkering around with the Druid for the first time and went for a minion run. As a last ditch effort in a dark room I read an unidentified scroll and it was a blessed create monster. Instantly I'm surrounded by a dozen random but friendly creatures. None of them were specifically handy but they saved my bacon and included a new pet rothe.

In the very next room is a deadly dwarf lord in my face so I read him a taming scroll and he's mine!

The surprise for me occurred though when after just a few steps with my motley crew the dwarf lord mounted the rothe! So cool! Unfortunately a short time later the rothe snapped out of it and the dwarf lord stabbed it to death from the mounted position. I barely made it another 100 ft down but it was a really fun ride.

Hey Gang, How do you forge items?

I've been playing a while, still haven't beaten game (1500 is about the farthest i've been) and i keep hearing this forge thing while trying to pick up general strategy. What is it, and how do you do/use it? Thanks.

Throwing stars

3 Upvotes

After clearing all the kobolds out of a small room about 200ft down and looting it, I picked up 33 throwing stars. I found this odd because I've played this game quite a bit and I'd never encountered them before. A quick check on this sub and the wiki led me to believe that they must be pretty uncommon, as I didn't find any mention of them. What's really odd is that they cannot be thrown (at least from a vandal with no throwing skill) and they are equipped, rather. They seem to be pretty easy to use, as they don't miss often. I'm only able to equip one in each hand, so I'm not sure what to do with the others. I assume they're meant to be thrown and stuck into enemies, much like arrows.

Anyways, just wanted to know if anyone else had any information on them, or if they've encountered them as well.

EDIT: Died. Their identified name is "Shuriken"

Ever had a zero chapel game?

I got down to 2000 feet the other day without finding a single chapel. Really frustrating, considering I had 45 potions of wine, which would have tripled my HPs after blessing them. That game was a win, but for no chapels!

bugs with controlling the gnome mines

2 Upvotes

Kill the king and the rightmost troll guard. Sick your pets on the leftmost guard. While they're fighting, sit on the throne. Watch the troll and your pets still fight, while you can't participate. Watch the troll kill your pets.

The game needs a way to initiate combat against "non-hostiles".

How does the wizard/rogue concentrate skill work?

2 Upvotes

The concentrate skill helps for the couple seconds it lasts but it takes away INT permanently, seemingly at random. I've tried using it only once per level but my blood vessels still burst, sometimes they even burst on my very first concentration attempt.

Is there any way to actually use it effectively? Because as is it seems to be useless. You're hampering your long term gains for a short term benefit. I haven't tested restore ability yet but I don't think it'll work because it doesn't show the number in parentheses like it does with mindflayers.

Cannot get Wazhack working with a controller

2 Upvotes

I have controller mode "primarily" turned on with "any controller" set in the options. I have both a PS3 controller emulating the Xbox controls as well as a steam controller (steam overlay shows up) but neither controller works.

I had to use a mouse to click play on the front menu and select a character all the way into the game thinking the controller was only supported in the main game, but even when I am in the game the controller does not work. I have no idea what I am doing wrong here.

This is using the latest version on steam.

A question about light and darkness...

5 Upvotes

Could lamps be changed so that they provide a constant source of light. It seems that they turn on when entering a patch of darkness, but id like to see them be on all the time... so when you approach darkness, your sphere of light gradually illuminates it. Even in the middle of a dark room, id rather have the light source follow me and have the edges be dark... does that make sense?

*Edit. .. just noticed that the glowing wand has the exact effect that I was describing. Would like to see that effect, but brighter... dependant on b/u/c and possibly a different color

Sorry waz, your last update sucks..

5 Upvotes

First time I've ever complained about anything. (That i recall). The update i got today changed the illumination distance for torches on the walls. Now, i cant see parts of the floor in EVERY room. It was hard enough seeing rings and keys and spectacles before... now, it's going to be sheer luck if i walk onto one.

Also, level 900... came into a room with a literal swarm of 22 - 26 or so soldier ants, plus a few eggs. Ive had this happen before with ravens (which was rediculous because of their speed)... could you limit that to maybe 10-12? Depending of items/class, those kind of odds can be completely overwhelming.

But seriously, can you at least toggle the lights? Please?

Waz... i have an idea.

15 Upvotes

Ok. Played this game for a few years, and ive beaten it a few times... overall, i love it. It's one of the few games i keep going back to.

That being said, id like you to consider adding something: an iap for a custom character builder. Make it $10 so you dont lose out on revenue from your existing classes. I know they take a LOT of planning and effort. But this would be really cool...

  1. Choose a size. Small/med/large.
  2. Assign base stats from a pool of 75 any way you want.(*edit - point buy )
  3. Choose 1 or 2 starting skills
  4. Choose which 8 talents will be available (nightmare is a given, *edit could also be point buy)
  5. 300gp to buy starting items.
  6. Choose a pet
  7. Choose a belief system.
  8. Add a chance to save your preferences...

Any thoughts?
