That's pretty much what I just said bro, but whatever

oooo thanks a ton. necromancy here i come!

I had to mention the rotting part because I didn't know about that when I first played a necromancer (as obvious as it should be.) but yeah, the rest was basically copying you.

here is the wiki for DCSS (dungeon crawl stone soup)

the wiki helped me alot.

bump

i hate how when you use some necromancy spells (like pain) it costs health. that is sooooooo stupid. my favorites race is a vampire cause you dont need food you can just eat corpses (with blood, not poison) i dont know my favorite class yet.

How is that stupid? Necromancy is usually black/dark magic for a reason. It injuring the caster is a common trait.

Oh I blundered into a hidden thing of sorts. When giving your allies commands, it shows three possible things. There is in fact a fourth which is activated by pressing "p" instead. It says "gang up" but its pretty much just like "attack". Meh.

Daman has a point, Necromancy is essentially Satan/<Insert Other Arch-Diety Here>'s magic, therefore requiring sacrifice.

Mummies do that too.

I just got chased across 2 levels of the dungeon by a random adventurer before I had to stop to eat something or starve, he killed me while I was eating, so it was kind of pointless anyway.

i like to do direct damage, not indirect (like summoning minions or something) so the necromancer/summoner guy is not for me. i really like the chaos knight and assassin class. im not a fan of casters cause casting makes you more hungry. of my higher level characters (7-12) they all died of hunger. so i <3 vampires (they can eat corpses and i think mummies/trolls can too). kinda weird. im currently a level 6 Vampire Chaos Knight of Makhleb.



i dont mean its stupid, its just annoying but you do have a point.

Hunger is one of my biggest problems. I'd nearly forgotten that you get hungry from casting spells.

Maybe I'll try a melee character.

3 solid, go vampire. they can eat corpses with blood (the green blood poisons you). vampires ftw.

If you get hungry be a mummy. They do not have to eat.

i dont like mummies. according to http://www.chaosforge.org/crawl/index.php?title=Mummy they are *the worst* class in the game at EVERY aptitude. vamp>mummy imo.

question: when you have a religion, one of the religious abilities is called "announce religion" but how do i use it? i never seems to work for me. can anybody help?
