DF Adventure Mode Discussion / Re: Can't become vampire
« on: May 19, 2012, 12:46:39 pm »After many failed tries in that world, I succeeded at becoming a vampire by drinking a non-vampire's blood laced with a vampire's blood.
Sure you weren't already a vampire and had to finish turning by drinking non-vampire blood? This game does seem to follow the lore that you aren't fully a vamp until you drink non-vamp blood, then you're turned and the symbol shows up... So says the wiki :p

Ya know, it does say on the wiki you have to drink a normal humans blood before that vampire symbol will show up once you drink the vamps blood and become a vampire...
Goes well with a lot of vamp lore, you don't finish turning until you drink blood.

Clothing is easy, as you just keep putting it on... But how the heck do you hold more than 1 shield or weapon? Drop the backpack so they stay in your hand instead of going into the pack?
Off-topic, my understanding is bash weapons, silver is best, right? Well, with the change to 08, I can't do any more than chip a skull with silver, but bronze caves it in, every time... And I'm talking about attack passed out enemies, so there are no hit difficulty/squareness issues here...

« on: May 19, 2012, 12:38:24 pm »Just wrestled half the day with a giant sponge. Turns out they give 130ish experience per wrestle attempt, but no exp in any other skill...Just a note, you earn more Wrestling exp if you 'try/adjust your grip' than going for straight hits with them grapples.
Legendary+5 wrestler was a few levels ago ;-)
This only works if you wrestle things larger than you, or crippled things that are larger than you. The latter is safer.
Even 10 levels past legendary, I couldn't actually grab it. It broke my grip every time, but I got quite a bit of experience, regardless :p
Thanks for the tip, though :-)

Heh, you replied as I edited my post:p dungeons are usually castle/keeps basements, but I suppose it might just be a cave maybe of there are no cities where the map tells you to go.
Not 100% on in-game terminology, but toady likes keeping it close to real life, so there ya go :p

Hit Q and then t, I believe. Brings up your quest log map, and then draws a line from where you are to where you should go. Search that area for the dungeon entrance, and then kill the Boss :p
Edit: dungeon is most commonly used to refer to the torture prison basement of a castle or keep in real life, so I assume it's the same in this game

Well hey, as long as you aren't killing anyone, I say the occasional breaking of an ankle or two should be entirely allowed as a non lethal method of escaping enemies.
Legendary wrestler-monks, here we come:p

Something like autofail 25% of skill rolls on top of whatever % you have that already fails... For Life :p

« on: May 18, 2012, 11:23:31 pm »And yet vampires gravitate toward civilization rulership more often than could be coincidence. I suspect Toady has a very cynical view of authority.
Well they do have a way of sucking the life out of people

Suggestions:
In order to prove completion of (or simply adherence to) the challenge, screens must be provided showing the adventurer has no kills recorded.
Similarly, for every kill, screens must be provided proving the absolute necessity of such actions.

I dunno why, but I was never comfortable posting over there... I always asked my questions here :p
I asked one question over there, but I never looked again to see if it was answered...

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: so wheelbarrows? what do you think
« on: May 18, 2012, 12:53:20 pm »Loving the mental image of a dorf wheeling a boulder up a stairwell, by the way. As if it wasn't a ridiculous enough image of them carrying it up one :p
Not as ridiculous as you think, if the stairs are designed for it.
Ya, I've seen those. I've used em, in fact. I was imagining more of a short narrow series of flights like you would imagine in a small underground space :p
