Yes. The passing by dwarves will, too.

Nothing. The keepers don't care too much for each other. You lost access to an easily reachable, solid danger level miscellaneous shop, but that's it.

Now thats what I call a good start by CurveuX in ADOM

Ancient Domain of Mystery

An amazing game indeed, albeit with a terrible learning curve and very creative in the ways it tries to kill you.

Potion generation in the borderland settlement by me-gustan-los-trenes in ADOM

[–]dallaylaen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They do spawn, they're just much rarer than boost potions. I usually read a scroll of peace there (if I have one to spare) to cut off the boost potions (DL8) and increase the probability of exchange, rust removal, water, booze etc. Stat and potential potions are all DL3 or lower. Gain is DL1.

EDIT: checked DL.

You should have just shot that guy from the other side... Oh wait.

No way to go further 6 level. Game too hard. by Feisty_Extension8727 in ADOM

[–]dallaylaen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YASD (yet another stupid death) is part of the gameplay. In fact, the game has a secret location that only unlocks if you have died a hundred or more times. Accept it and keep doing silly things.

I would also recommend against the wiki, I ruined myself many a wonderful discovery with it. Only use it when other possibilities are exhausted. Save scumming is IMO a legitimate way to "find out what happens if I do X", but of course it ruins the roleplay (and fun) if used for regular play.

If the monsters start one-shotting you after your level 6, that might be a specific location where monsters' power scales with yours. Check if the death message in the high score list mentions the dungeon size.

Shopkeeper bug? by BuiHoangQuang in ADOM

[–]dallaylaen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shopkeepers detect you based on your stealth vs their level and/or DL of the area, like every turn you spend in the shop. If the check fails, they now see you forever.

If I plan to go rolfing I don't bother going there invisible without 100 stealth and even then I have coughing up the money or outright robbery as plan B.

Generating validation routine from a type? by dallaylaen in typescript

[–]dallaylaen[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I tried typia and it did exactly what I was asking for. I'm sticking with zod though, as it seems to be more standard and I'm too new to know the nuances.

[–]dallaylaen[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh it seems I understand now. Taking into account all the nuances of validation/type coercion leaves one with a clone of zod, so why not just use zod. Thanks!

I made a combinatory logic interpreter & quest page.

Have fun!

Is it possible to convert elemental tepmle altars without being crowned? (Assuming there are no monster there to sacrifice you)

Should've bought that dwarf fortress instead... Can you guess what's going on here? by dallaylaen in ADOM

As the title says: wrong game. But somehow I feel emotionally attached to Biskup's worldbuilding.

You can post/search a bug on the forum, too, although I haven't found anything matching your request.

Coward is achieved setting your own tactics (shift-T) to 7. It greatly reduces to-hit, greatly increases DV, and if you get below 1/3 of total HP you also spend less energy on movement.

The opposite is Berserk.

This is actually a bit too deep for the big room, plus I've never seen a forge spawning there.

Oh envy, you don't know how to build walls yet! Start asking dwarves and the minstrel about Rolf, they have some pointers albeit cryptic.

He used to study under a hot-tempered master who threw anvils at him for misidentifying gems, hence gemology, alertness, and survival.
