Move aside Harry Potter. Halk is the new wizard in town

Not stranger than someone who looks like Tiggy being an expert fighter, or someone who looks like Halk being an expert wizard

Wuuf!

Seems a bit too hardcore for my taste

Thank you Jay

Next one is Wuuf.

The CSB run with Mr. Average has now been completed

I had to take the long way to get the Ros corbum this time, because meynaf has removed the shortcut in his version.

Wait a minute, how did you manage to open the wall in the dragon den when going the opposite way? As far as I'm aware, that wall can only be opened from one side with the powertowers.

As many of you know, there is a shortcut to get the Ros corbum from Ku or vice versa. Do you think this was intentionally done by the developers, or is it a bug in the dungeon. Meynaf certainly thinks it's the latter, so he removed it. https://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?p=1634051#post1634051 When ...

Finished DM with Zed. I used dmcsb this time.

I just completed Theron's Quest in meynaf's dmcsb engine. I only used Theron, since it's his quest after all :lol: After stepping through the teleporter in the Hall of Champions, I was teleported to a long hallway with a row teleporters to the various quests along the side. I chose Village of Thieve...

Wow - Gando must be one of the characters with the lowest Vitality in the game if he only has 40 after you completed both Dungeon Master and Chaos Strikes Back! --Jay I just had look in the wiki, and his starting vitality of 33 is actually the lowest of them all. The second lowest is Gothmog at 34,...

Finally got over my procrastination and got around to finishing my Gando run in CSB

Actually I've just found out that in the Amiga version, Health, Stamina and Mana are divided by 4 for some reason. In the Atari ST version and CSBWin they are indeed divided by 2.

Wow! I'm amazed that we were able to discover a new bug after 35 years :) I can confirm that the bug is also present in Amiga version 3.6 I let the mummy attack me once, then backed out of there and closed the door and went upstairs and waited a bit, then went down to level 1 again and tested. This ...

I just installed the Hatari emulator and tested it with DM 1.1 It took 16 casts of Lo Ful to reach neophyte wizard, in line with what I found in CSBWin and dmcsb and around 60% slower than the Amiga version. It took 72 club throws to reach neophyte ninja, the exact same number as CSBWin and dmcsb an...

While procrastinating finishing CSB with Gando (still got Dain left), I did test meynaf's dmcsb and found out that experience gain in the Atari version is indeed slower than the Amiga version. https://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?p=1630101#post1630101 Wizard level gain from torch spells is about 60%...

I'm halfway through CSB, but decided to take a break and haven't played since Friday. I'm thinking for my next run maybe I'll use RTC. I tried it in Wine, and it works fine except for a 10+ second delay before the GG splash screen pops up at launch (I don't remember if that was also the case when ru...

I'm fine with the challenge of only playing one champion at a time. I definitely don't feel like doing a no spellcasting run, it would feel suboptimal to not take advantage of all the options available in the game to conquer the dungeon. If it starts feeling like a chore and stops being fun, I'll ta...

The runs tend to get kind of the similar. I did set out to see how many different DM champions I could solo the game with though. The most noticeable difference is between champions with low wisdom/mana and high strength and champions with low strength and high wisdom/mana. I feel the high mana cham...

DM done.

09,27,35 is a teleporter? It's not marked on the map on the DM encyclopedia.

Nor does it show the teleporter at 09(20,23).

Good point. The map there could probably do with an update.

Where does 9,27,35 teleport to, and which tile(s) does 9,20,23 teleport to?

09,27,35 is a teleporter? It's not marked on the map on the DM encyclopedia.

If that's a suicide teleporter for the worms, maybe they put it there as a way to make sure the room doesn't get too overcrowded.

Hi, I wanted to see if it was possible to find a new way to telefrag the Ku dragon by tricking him into following me into the junction teleporter at 9,22,23 and subsequently trapping him in the junction, then going back to the teleporter and stepping into it again. When I went down to level 9 I foun...
