    _Holiness is supposed to reduce poison, but holy attacks are supposed to hurt necro realm casters. It looks like there's some funny interaction going on there - I'll check it out.

      Hi Nick,

      Generations of Glars have been tirelessly persecuting townsfolk to try and reproduce it...and we're there.

      Savefile heading your way...

        My current Glar has also got one of these pricey daggers saved in his home which was dropped in the dungeon, if you're interested.

        Could they have some kind of hidden bonus?

          Yes, they could.

          It is a well-balanced dagger, which means better for throwing. It should be named as such, as should other well-balanced items. Thanks for finding this - another thing to be fixed in the next version.

            Sure enough the store owner(s) can tell the difference between two Daggers, one well-balanced and one NOT-well-balanced, yet they're named the same way.
            My best try at PosChengband 7.0.0's nightmare-mode on Angband.live:

            If I'm offline I'm probably in the middle of maintaining Gentoo or something-Linux or other.

                Nope. I failed to bring that change over from 1.1.6 to 1.2 when I moved to the latest V codebase - an incredibly painful process from which the variant is only just recovering. There are probably still others, but MattB is finding them for me

                  My pleasure!
                  Could they just be renamed 'throwing knives' maybe?

                    You get other well-balanced stuff, too - spears, throwing hammers, etc.

                        Minor bug, stepping on lava

                        I just posted two screenshots from when stepping on a lava pit. The bug is that if you are asked if you want to step on the lava pit (scaldingly hot) and say "n", you still get the move to the pit, but no damage.

                          Awesome - that's a great exploit. You can walk across lava as long as you say you don't want to...

                            I've noticed the lack of uniques in this version of FA. Of course ZI'm playing in hardmode and scum for good levels mode. BUt I wish I could find more uniques...

                              I'm kind of noticing that in the Angband dungeon map too, and I have no idea why.
