If you do decide to go whole hog, consider nerfing teleportation to the point of removing it entirely. Excepting recall, perhaps. IMO it's kind of a cheap method of compensating for difficulty...

A common reason cited for diving is that the longer you...

This is all by way of saying that different variant developers have different priorities. Vanilla, by definition, is what Andi Sidwell says it is. He's very generous in asking outside opinions, but...

I'm in doubt as to whether this is actually a viable alternative. Sure you can scum before TANG's resist breakpoints, but eventually an OoD nasty is going to catch up with you. It's diving 101.

What if CTRL+< on any up-stair simply took you back to town (maybe for a price?), and CTRL+> took you to your max depth? Any possibility of abuse above and beyond regular stairscumming?

I find in the vast majority of my 1 hit deaths, it's a 1 on 1 scenario, usually because I was either blindsided, or didn't properly appraise the danger. 1HP would let you drink a potion, and start...

Modernization wishlist
Took a long break from roguelikes. Then got hooked on DoomRL, then played some FAAngband and Vanilla for kicks. Fun for a while until I got killed out of nowhere. Thoughts occur to me. There are...

I wonder if this works in NPP too. Smeagol is a nearly impossible 50' quest for most characters because he keeps stealing and running. You simply can't damage him enough before finding him again. If...
