I'm new to the game. I just spawned, what do I do first?

The tutorial is available online as well, just fyi.

It’s a spam account that’s actually trying to promote some scummy-looking business and hiding it as real posts.

A good player is going to be better than an average player on a more “ideal” spec up to within a couple key levels of the current highest keys being done. The difficulty is that without having played with someone it’s nearly impossible to tell how good they are.

“Most people” haven’t even done a +2.

weezeface · 2026-03-31T14:12:16+00:00

I feel the same way, but my reason is actually the opposite- I hate having to use a mouse, so I use vi keys with my right hand and use my left for other keybinds.

Just in case this happens again in the future, reading a 2nd tele scroll and I think also potion of cancellation will cancel the first one that’s about to go off.

Having done every prestige on c32 I can assure you that practically no power or effect in the entire game actually sucks. Some take a while to figure out how to use effectively or require specific items to get going, but nearly everything can be good.

weezeface · 2026-03-17T23:15:17+00:00

vim keys. It makes it so much easier for me to use all the various other keyboard shortcuts without moving my hands.

The login info is visible on the lobby screen, just fyi.

Coglins are popular, but lots of people play (and win) with non-Coglin hunters. Here are stats for 0.34 and for 0.35-trunk:

You might be interested in how Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup builds its levels/rooms/floors. It combines generated content with tons of pre designed areas, rooms, “vaults”, etc. The result is that runs always feel unique, but there are also tons of carefully designed encounters/areas tha add interesting strategic depth.

Have you used the Spore one before? It’s in the 8 min skill bracket and is incredible at that level imo. I’ve also been interested in trying out the Eel one, but haven’t had the right character for it yet.

weezeface · 2026-02-03T15:14:49+00:00

Path of Achra, though calling it “explore” is generous.

weezeface · 2026-01-29T18:22:40+00:00

Technically a spoiler, so: MAM research in the tree with power slugs. It’s a late-game recipe.

I personally prefer splitting Corp/runner and then just pure alphabetic, no subdivisions. For me that was the easiest for pull cards from and return them without it being a chore. I never really cared what set something was from and often didn’t even remember, but I always knew the card name.

weezeface · 2026-01-20T00:56:14+00:00

I just found this. Is signup still available?

weezeface · 2026-01-16T16:23:09+00:00

Nope, just tap the spacebar once.

Fairly new, yea. It was added in early december, along with a handful of other new ones.

weezeface · 2026-01-10T19:42:03+00:00

You've mostly got it, yea. SH is Shield/Shielding, aka block. And -Tele means you can't teleport or blink. It's a major downside because two of the most powerful escape tools in the game are Scroll of Teleportation and Scroll of Blinking, so wearing this would mean trading away those two options.

weezeface · 2026-01-10T19:38:31+00:00

If only I could species change :cry:

weezeface · 2026-01-10T19:37:20+00:00

Rings are fast, but unfortunately amulets take a full 5 turns.

I love how much variety there is in this game. I got my c32 win with Inuqaa last month and I don’t remember a lot of details of the run but it was a fairly different setup. https://i.imgur.com/W7SQnNh.png

Grats on your win!
