I'd be happy with either of those, as long as there's potential for exciting end-game crafting with them! For example, when I finally beat the serpent and start poking around Heaven, I'd like it to...

Scrolls of Crafting
Scrolls of Crafting seem to ignore either an item's level or level restrictions on egos. For example, I was on level 561 of Heaven and found a nice set of dragon wings (which displayed a level of 127...

Thanks, schatz. I love your Optimizer.
Idea, in case you're looking for them: allow us to assign weights to various stats for use in the Optimizer's maximization calculations. For example, we...

In my character's pack, I have:

The Ring of the Future King (+11,+8) (+2) {St;Di;Si(St}
but the Optimizer recommends I use
a Ring of Combat (+16,+14)...

I'm excited for the release. Can't wait to see what all you did with Heaven and Hell. First thing I'm doing is making a weaponsmith to explore them!

Weaponsmith feedback
Here’s some feedback on Weaponsmiths in 5.0.5, most of which I assume is still valid for 6.1.0:

Demo!
We've just finished making a big, free demo available for Windows. It has Oafmatch's first three zones, which should make for about five to ten hours of gameplay. We don't have much of a social media...

Figuring out a way to tell the player their chance to hit a given monster is OK, but we could do better. Ideally, we make hit chances based on such a simple system that we can tell the player how the...

*ID* should go.
One of the things that holds me back from taking another stab at Poschengband is *ID*. After the blessed relief of playing Vanilla without it, the idea of slogging through a variant with it is...
