Oh wow, I figured it was at friend. Go figure. I hope it's not soulmate. Maybe it has to do with fame too?

I don't have a clue. I prefer to keep as few pets as possible, just for an extra touch of damage.

i wanna know this too. why's the option there if they won't join?

>>1006359
Probably just a feature not used yet.

I figure it has to do with fame.

aww cute little critters

>>1006371
Yea. One time I picked that option because I was bored, and the guy said I could hire him for 1 week for the low low price of 20,000.

LULLLLLLLLLLLLLWUT

How did you even raise your impress with other adventurers?

whats the use of the museum deed?

>>1006499
Argh, great. Two questions, what was your level in respect to hers, and can you give them engagement/love potions like pets?

>>1006516
Place it on the world map and put all the figures and cards you find in it. I would like to know the profit margin vs. museum rank.

>>1006533
gave her engagement rings when shes in my party then when she left, stole all of them back. she's 10 level higher than my char.

>>1006550
Ah, so I can ignore the "you're no match for me" bullshit. Guess I'm kinda screwed on the stealing, though.

>>1006550

awesome. how do i steal? is it a skill i pick up somewhere? how high do i have to get the skill before it works on other adventurers?

I ended up having to cure my ether disease, and with it my hooves. I had a speed of 110, now it's 75. What do I do to increase my speed in an efficient way?

>>1006602
Inferior material yourself a glass set and wish for a speed ring.

I need a way to cure this curse on me. No one has a scroll for it and I can't find a bottle of water or somewhere to bless it.

>>1006602
full glass equipment....

i got a glass helmet +4, glass amulet +4, glass transparent mail 4+, glass hammer +4, glass ring, leather ring +6, glass girdle +4, glass long bow +4, glass arrow +4. still missing a glass shield and glass gloves... also seven league boots (not boost speed, boost travel time)

mutation of speed (5-10-15) (the positive mutation).

what exactly does 'it stunts your growth' do? Does it lower potentials for all stats, make gaining levels slower, what?

>>1006658
It periodically drains experience.

>>1006635
Travel around checking magic vendors for scrolls of uncurse, they aren't too uncommon.
>>1006621
There is, I think, a speed ring sitting on the floor in the pyramid. That's where I found mine anyway, and it seemed like a static spawn.

What's a good, easy to find low level spell?

>>1006698
Magic arrow. After that, fire bolt and other -bolt based spells. That's about all you'll need. Spells will level up individually to a high power, but it's using them properly that's the challenge.

Minor teleportation, firebolt, and magic arrow are my most used spells.

>>1006719

My problem as a wizard is I can never find enough spellbooks that are useful. Aside from the starting 3 spellbooks, I've yet to find another spellbook of Magic Dart.

>>1006719
Thanks, trying to get my warrior spellcasting up since I heard it pays off in the end.
Then again, it has pretty pathetic skill in light armor and to be able to cast in medium armor... pretty impossible, no?

>>1006737
Get into the mage's guild. You can request spellbooks from the spellmaker and he creates a dozen or so of that book within a day. Everything from magic arrow to cure minor wound.

>>1006777
Where's that?

>>1006866
Lumiest, top left corner.

And holy cow, the only stat it didn't improve was charisma... I really should feed some more of these to her.

So, what's a good race combo for an archer? I want to make a firearms sort of char, but I don't really know where to get a good foothold.

Hmmm, I wonder how stat increasing foods work... I fed her another curaria and this time she had cha gain but no magic or constituion gain...

Anyone willing to post the world map?

>>1006920

http://images.wikia.com/elona/images//8/89/ElonaWorldMap.jpg

>>1006906
I think they work the same as skills do, you build towards them. My assumption was that curarias give points to all, it just happens that its not a full level, just most of it, and some stats don't always quite make it.

>>1006906

Pretty sure it's like you have stat experience. So say she was at 270/500 on all her stats except 130/500 on charisma, and you give her that food which gives 250 to all. Arbitrary numbers and it's all based on assumption but that's how it works, I think.

Actually, it's probably based on the stat potential too. I'd check it right now but I'm dungeon crawling atm...

Anyone found a good monster to mass breed?
I currently have wild horse with 833 breeding power but it seems pretty slow.

>>1006932
Stat potential reduces how fast that skill levels up, eventually stopping it from levelling altogether. A proverbial "stat cap".

>>1006993
I think its a soft cap, as opposed to a hard one- my charisma has been hopeless for at least ten points or so.

Also anyone have tips for gene engineering?
I found out that if you combine loli with horse genes, it gains new legs.

How can I change my appearance?

anyone know what file you edit to change your alias?

>>1007006
Try mixing a hermit crab with a quickling. The result would be the perfect tank, in theory.

Oh god, why didn't anyone mention how much carrying cargo slows you down? I bought shit tons of fish from Port Kapul with every intention of selling them in Noyel, but I'm taking a day for each step. Oh god. And the bandits. They get like a hundred turns for each turn I take. What the fuck.

>>1007039
There's a cargo limit for a reason.

>>1007039

Also, the more cargo you have, the greater the chance of getting stopped by bandits.

Speaking of weight problems, anyone know what rank my magic shop will start selling feather scrolls? My piano isn't getting any lighter and I'm goddamn tired of being burdened! just to do a dungeon.

>>1007052
The piano won't get lighter, but you can get stronger. You probably already have weight-lifting though...

>>1007052
At 67 Performance and 62 Charisma, people at the 'Party Time!' parties throw enchanted rings/necklaces/shoes (very low weight) that my shopkeeper pawns off for great profit and store rank advancement.

Finally made it to Noyel, used a return scroll to get to Palmia. Unfortunately, like the trader in Palmia, the Noyel trader ran out of money as well.

Some threw a godly cloak at me during a performance, and when I moved to take it, time ran out. FUCK.

>>1007060
I usually have storage houses next to Port Kapul and Noyel just for those instances of trade overflow.

>>1007057
Yeah, it's sitting at 27, but it raises slow as all hell. And at only 2 stones a point, a 75 pound throwing weapon is still rather signifigant.

Hey /jp/, I made this hamburger for you, anyone hungry?

>>1007059
Oh, if you sell that crap to your own shopkeeps they rank themselves up? I've just been pawning it in palmia. I also haven't noticed much of an increase in quality on the loot from performance quests from around 60-70 performance skill to 100+.

>>1007112
I believe he means actual shop, you know, the one you get when you read "deed of shop" on world map.

Your character looks like Pico. Congratulations.

>>1007124
Oh, hell. I just have a castle.

>>1007105
><Gwen> the innocent hamburger

Laughed way more than I should have.

>>1007018
anyone?

>>1007167
Decoration and making people kill themselves.

I killed myself with the guillotine. What's the use of it?

anyone have the HUEG touhou sprt sheet an anonymous somedays ago?

what is the chaos child for? is it ok to kill him?

>>1007052

they have a stupidly low chance of dropping. probably rank 50 or so though.

This game is a load of shit. You have to have a god character from the begining or you get your ass owned by shit in the BEGINNERS tower. Fuck this.

>>1007211

you have to start the game slow and steady.

How slow? I was on level 4 and went to the second level of the beginners tower and owned everything. I left and came back and these little clown fuckers are in there that kill me in one hit. Oh, and my fucking pet hates me because she is a dumbshit and there is now way to make her like me again, even after I kill a fuck load of monsters.

I'll go back to playing Rogue and NetHack. You know, games that aren't horrably unbalanced.

>>1007039
>>1007060
>>1007079
Shipping cargo actually pays off?
As in you get more profit than 1 or 2 gold pieces.

>>1007245

do some quest and get better stuff.

>>1007246
Yeah, I bought a tuna at Kapul for 199, and sold it at Noyel for 495. The moonfish I bought for 395, sold for 1000+. So yeah, there's a profit to be made.

>>1007245
You can't kill a public performer in an unusually easy roguelike?

That's pathetic. Go home.

>>1007246
If you do it right, you can usually sell them for double what you've paid.

>>1007264
How does I "do it right"?

>>1007263
No, not a performer. This is some blue little shit. I can kill performers easily.

>>1007275

Port Kapul and Noyel are the key trading towns of the game. They pay the most for goods. All you have to do is buy fish from Port Kapul and lug it to Noyel. Buy Snowmen and Christmas trees from Noyel and lug it back to Port Kapul. If you're feeling lazy, fish sells for a pretty decent price in Lumiest.

>>1007312
I see, I'll have to try that then.

ok, after like 30+ tries, I finally got a catsister with a decent name, age 10, height below 145cm and not ubber fat. now to train her!

>>1007288
Probably goblin shamans. I'd have to say it's pretty much your fault if you're going to line up in front of him and then charge. That's just asking to die.

How the hell did you ever survive in nethack like that?

>>1007357

>>1007357
You know you can rename them, don't you?

so where's the best place to get books to decode for the magician guild quest?

>>1007378
You can pillage the puppy cave again, or you can actually go and work on some of those random dungeons. You'll have ancient books in no time.

What exactly are "magic devices"?

>>1007368
You are underestimating my problem here. I'll be hitting one with my bow then another pops up behind me. I'll start to move to the stares and another shows up. I'll warp to another part of the dungeon, and there is 2 more. There is nothing but evil spirits and them blue things in my beginners tower now. They will even go around killing the weak eyeball and bunny monsters.

>>1007405
I'm guessing rods/wands.

>>1007411
Scrolls, too.

>>1007382
yes but you can't put back the renaming has a limited amount of characters

>>1007382
lolhow?

>>1007428
i --> select pet -> Name

>>1007439
was kinda hoping for alias rename, lol

>>1007448
Pets don't have aliases.

>>1007463
meant for me, lol, also renaming with i works on you aswell, just press enter when the arrows show up

I'm a wizard. How should I make money?

>>1007557

What is the point of door creation?

>>1007557
grind to level 6, then die alot, be sure to save each time you die

>>1007615

wut

>>1007611
The doors you make are locked.

How do you raise your impress with other people?

Not just pets and other adventurers, but like, people in town.

Every shopkeeper in Vernis absolutely hates me, and I have no clue why.

>>1007733
did you nuke the town?

>>1007733
but yeah, to raise it, just give them items, via "i", I think

>>1007611
While decorating my home with the editor thing, I found out that there is no door tile. The rod helps with this.

a little question: can pet train new skills or only improve their skills potentials?

Where in town is my pet girl? I sent her there for a time.

>>1007809
Only improve as far as i know
You can eventually gene splice skills into them tho

>>1007864
you need to call her back using a bartender, I think

>>1007903
yeh just noticed... I guess I'd love my catsister to have critical skill and such so she becomes stronger in fights

Where can I find some lv10+ pok... monster balls?

>>1008037
just invest in the general store, then keep checking back

>>1008040
You make it sound so easy...

Is there any way to cheat apart from the wizard mode gain_xxx commands? The game is way too grindan for me.

>>1008206
Sure. Set debug_races to 1 in the config.txt and make a god character.

Is this moonland?

>>1008215
I'm only seeing lame races like minotaurs instead of gods, you silly-billy.

>>1008215
errr... don't you have to be in wizard mode to create a god character anyway??.....

>>1008234
Scroll down

You know, I never saw the point in playing a game if you're going to cheat like that. You might as well delete the game off your comp right now since if you cheat, you're going to get bored with it in a day or so.

And this game is insanely easy as long as you don't start the game by charging into hordes of enemies. Once you work your way up in terms of equipment, you can pretty much solo the dungeons (with a couple blankets and rods of course). Frankly, I don't even see why people whine so much, it's a roguelike game, if you can't handle it, perhaps you guys should go back to playing Dynasty Warriors or something?

>>1008267
Drunk in public: SRS BSNS

>>1008275

Wow. Elitist fags in my nighttime /jp/?

>>1008275
Cause grindan for hours to get a few points in performan skill is so much fun, amirite?

"I'm going ho... home..."

I never felt so bad killing something in my whole life.

>>1008225
>You displace Hisui

WHAT?

I wonder if I can make Kohaku.

>>1008280
1. Chuck a couple platinum to a trainer to train performance skill
2. Take out your harmonica and start playing (away from Loyter, Dweller, Gilbert...)
3. ???
4. Profit

Takes like a couple minutes of spamming rest and harmonica to increase your performance level. Although you need to move away from the area after a while because ppl get bored with your song.

>>1008279
Elitist? No, just annoyed at all the retards who can't play a game because they suck at it.

>>1008284
>Elitist? No, just annoyed at all the retards who can't play a game because they suck at it.
Last I checked, games were meant to entertain. How someone chooses to entertain himself with it is of no consequence to me. Hence, you are an elitist fag.

>>1008284
I spent a hour grindan the piano IN A CAVE WITH A BRONZE PIANO and got like 10 points. People still tossed rocks at me hard enough to kill me every time I tried to play outside at 20 perform skill. Fuck you and your jappo grindan gaems.

>>1008290
Let me guess, you played it in Vernis?

>>1008288
Indeed, and it entertains me to see how much you're trying to defend how much you suck at it. BAWWWW more?

>>1008290
You get more of a rise in skill with legendary performances and you need people around for those... Also, try playing with blessed and higher material instruments. And play away from Loyter, Gilbert, and some of the guards.

>>1008290
Bye then, just because you suck.

>>1008298
Palmia, nigger. I carry my own piano.

>>1008290

I have 9 points and people chuck money at me. Maybe you should get a better instrument.

>>1008300

How to make fellow Adventurer fall in love with you:

Step One: cure yourself of that fucking mutation that makes you compulsively drink potions.
Step Two: buy shitloads alcohol.
Step Three: find attractive higher level adventurer, hire them to help out for a week.
Step Four: gift booze to adventurer.
Step Five: sex adventurer, her opinion of you is now 5 points higher.
Step Six: wait for confusion cool down, then repeat steps 4 through 6 as often as desired.
Step Seven: soul mate.

WARNING! Each time you whore yourself you and your partner lose 10 points of sanity, and you lose one karma! Be prepared to bury hella dead adventurers to compensate. I have no idea what adverse effects low sanity causes, be warned.

>>1008306
Buy 'little sister bentos' (and eat them of course) to regain sanity points (or rather, lose the insanity points)

>>1008300
I don't suck at it. My fairy pianist is doing quite well as is. I'm just saying that for those who derive fun out of seeing all the game has to offer without spending the months that such a thing would take, it's justified to do things their own way. It's not necessarily a failure on their part, they just don't find challenges entertaining, perhaps, and don't care to succeed.

>>1008306
You get to fight Cthulhu at 500 sanity.

>>1008306
Those faithful to the tsundere god eventually get a sanity restoring aura.

Who knows how she feels about you using it to better whore yourself.

>>1008324
It'd probably turn her on, and she'd get jealous and want you to fuck her instead, but outwardly only call you a pervert for only thinking of sex.

I love this genes machine
now I just need to fuse her with another pet with good str

>>1008313
If they don't find challenges entertaining, then they should not be playing games in the first place. All games are designed with a challenge (yes, even those games for 2 year old toddlers) in mind and that's where the source of entertainment comes from. You might as well be watching a movie for entertainment if you don't want a challenge.

And like I said, they're only going to end up getting bored with the game after cheating and deleting it the next day. And justified? It's about as justified as robbing a bank because you're too incompetent to hold a job.

Shut up about cheating already, you faggots.

Can I marry several girls at once?

>>1008343
They don't even have to be girls...

>>1008343
nope

if you want a new waifu, sell your old one to the dude in port kalmia

>>1008337
And something with dual wield.

I'm not sure if you guys have noticed, but after you've been succesfully married to your loli/cat/etc, you can abuse her/him/it as much as you want and still be able to make genes with her/him/it.

i played this game for over 2000 hours....

>>1008363
>moot the little girl eats the corpse of <little Sister>

THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE

>>1008343
They don't even have to be human...

Can't wait to "sleep" in this.

>>1008358
she already has dual weild... I just gave her a longsword so she can actually get some +STR from something

>>1008426
Well she ain't going to hit anything with -14% hit.

>>1008429
I guess you're right, I'm going to give her a dagger and let her level up her dual wield first

I guess it was worth it to carry that bed to my base.

... is there any way to search the water?

>>1008514
That's not water.

>>1008514
I think that's snow. Enjoy your treasure hunt.

>>1008485
THE BED IS HAPPY.

>>1008514
that's snow

hehehe

>>1008551
Enjoy your death.

God damn etherwind, I'm stuck in my storage house driving my lolis insane with my bad harmonica playing.

>>1008620
buy a shelter

>>1008626
Wut?
Storage house doesn't protect against etherwind?

>>1008633
If there's no blue crystal wind, you should be fine.

i did it!!!1

>>1008652
Yeah, thought so.
I would have had diseases by now if it wouldn't protect.

>>1008662
And the reward...?

>>1008666

"secret treasure of wicked "
and 6 platinum coins

>>1008679
the secret treasure of wicked gives you a new trait

>>1008687
wonder if you get anything if you wish for 'secret treasure of wicked'... also aside from the huge loss of karma, are you still able to go into the city you nuked with a 'ok' karma? or do they still attack you?

>>1008687
... you don't feel guilty (-10 Karma)

what game is this ?

>>1008751
See >>1008599

Anyone got a clue what that gibberish is?

>>1008792
You can't offer any more things until your faith skill increases, i think.

Anybody have tips to get rich quick?
Did you just do 100 delivery missions from Noyel or something?

this game safe ?

>>1008814
Yes, you're capped until faith increases. Performance is the quickest if you're patient enough to raise it, otherwise mass missions probably.

>>1008814
Take missions and snowmen from Noyel, go on a trading and delivering spree that goes like this;

Noyel>(optional)Lumiest>Palmia>Vernis>(sell snowmen here) Port Kapul>Derphy>That One Goddamn Farming Town>Palmia>Noyel.

Take delivery missions going your way wherever you go.

>>1008825
No

>>1008814
"Before it's too late!" missions if you have seven league boots.
Otherwise - delivering items and the easiest hunting jobs.

>>1008828
Oh, and pick up all of the cooking missions when you leave a town. Don't finish them, though. Just so your fame doesn't get too high and you end up paying 100m taxes.

>>1008814
>>1008827
Oh.
What's a good way to increase it other than using level up points?

jappos suck at making roguelikes

Only do Beauty and the Beast missions if you're a masochist, or if you enjoy watching the deaths of others.

>>1008863
Tell me about it...
I was trying to do one and was ambushed by 4 ice drakes at pretty low lv.

>>1008867
Amen.

So, to continue the actual first post of the thread, I just got one to soul mate and he said I was no match for him. Apparently level does take into some consideration. For reference, I'm 17, he was 62.

>>1008206
What are you referring to when you say gain_xxx?

>>1008924
Press F12 and type in "?" without quotes and press enter.

So what's a good god to worship? My character uses guns a lot, so the machine god's weapon is tempting, but the goddess of luck seems to be really popular here. I can't decide!

any idea why my pet doesn't seem to want to sell the stuff I give to her? she's got like 4-5 books that she could sell and she just doesn't do it...

>>1008982
They don't sell those.
Only stuff I've seen my lolis sell has been those ores and junk stones, oh and gold bars too.

>>1008952
Thanks.

>>1008980
Pick one that suits your needs, I'm worshipping Kumiromi since that scythe he gives is pretty tempting to me.

>>1008992
thanks...
she seemed to have sold her old equipment though, so that's one good thing she could do

What pets do people use in their shops? I've tried a 21 cha/no negotiation and a 15/15 and barely get any results. Am I going to have to capture something?

>>1009054
Heh, nice.
He and his 200 damage stones...

>>1009026
actually nvm that she still has the old equip, I guess she sold something else I had given to her

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

>>1009090
Best line to end the world with.

>>1009090
how do you get the 'let's ragnarok' to happen? I'd love to see it happen in the king room if you see what I mean

>>1009156
Get the Ragnorok Sword, equip it, then just walk around for a bit.

>>1009156
Find an item with "It brings an end" in description then it's only a matter of time...

>>1009051
loli cat sister. 52 cha/11 neg, on average, sells 2 items everyday.

>>1009191
Argh. The one pet I haven't had any luck in getting at all. Guess I need to save up medals.

Is there any point in holding onto the loli diaries if you arent going to use it to summon the loli?

So whats the deal with the fire/coldproof blankets? I've had this thing at 0 charges for a long time now and it still protects my stuff just fine.

>>1009237
Yea that happens. Whenever charges run out there's a chance it will be destroyed. Probably because the one you have is blessed it's holding up much longer.

>>1008692
you get - 100 karma after the nuke +10 for dying in it#
if you had 20 before you only need to burry 14 corpses for neutral karma
11 i believe if you want to enter any city with guards

>>1009362
did you get your karma back up? if so do the guards in the city attack you due to your bombing or not?

>>1009373
Guards don't attack you after your karma goes back up.

my kind of caves

>>1009431

Here's to hoping you swallow something bad!
