Hmmm ... I wasn't planning on playing this guy for real, nor posting him. But look at what Lagduf just dropped in my lap:
The Light Crossbow of Aurora (x3) (+4,+20) (+4)
Its +4 Str and Extra Shots ... That's all I know for the time being. But it should shoot splendidly, so, time to go get me some bolts :)
BTW, Dave, I set the Rune of Absorption to have a max casting cost of 10sp. I think as long as we don't cut the player off from absorption, then there won't be any problem. And if you find a great uber weapon, its no sweat to scum for 10sp before swapping.

OK, I finally recovered spell points after my early Thieves Quest magic missiles. I think I will go for regeneration on my body armor. And then, I need to find a way to kill Red Helm without dying!

<> is strong ... but I need some strength! I blew all my gold and sold some arts just to buy boots of thievery +2 for 60k gold, but it is worth it, I think. And I just ran into a pack of dark hounds in shoot mode, which was good for regaining all my spell points ... twice :D Scummy, but necessary ...

And rune-knight look... interesting. Maybe i'll try them out after i win or die. Ow and you found a randart lamp? I have never seen one of those in Hengband. And with shard res... Very nice
On 14.12.2010 18:30 chris wrote: Well, rand-art torches and lanterns are a bug. I was shooting for allowing rand-art feanorian lamps, but my coding skills fell short :) I've since fixed it, but don't feel that this torch is too out of line (plus, it cost 17k gold).
Early on, Rune Knights have trouble getting spell points, but once you hit hound depth, it is not so bad.
On 14.12.2010 19:51 chris wrote: [CL30:DE Lords] 03:21
OK, I'll spoil. I didn't get a ?Acq for completing the DE Lords quest ...
Earlier, Barrow Downs gave both Julian and Quickthorn. Now, choosing Absorption rather than Destruction for Quickthorn is a complete, total, utter, fantastically obvious no-brainer. But I paused on Julian. I'd rather put Body or Mind on it, but the Regeneration is soooo useful right now, and its not too likely that Julian will be my end game gear, so I went ahead. And Deflection on a Mirror Shield was my only option.
So, I'm sporting a 179 AC at the moment, and looking desperately for a Ring of Damage to swap. Now I'm wishing I bought that +2 Ring of Damage that the BM stocked a while back ... I'd probably use it :)

2 !Str. Might. Power. Slaying. Now, my strength is maxed out, and damage has rocketed from 179 to 368, which is rather respectable (It better be ... It's all I've got :)
I can't go deeper without poison resistance, especially with no detection and under 800hp. So, now begins the long wait. I suppose I'll switch armor if I get too desperate, but its a good idea to wait a bit anyway. I was able to handle Kokuo quite easily as a quest monster, but I doubt I'll be so lucky from this point on.

I don't have the files on this computer.
And by "supply one", I meant supply a list --- I changed what I was writing in mid-sentence.

Giganto, the Gigantic Poison Breather was my DL36 quest, and its a darn good thing I succumbed to my better judgment regarding poison resistance.
Thus far, the absorption has felt quite weak, so I bumped it up. Rather than setting the minimum sp gained to 1 (without this, most spells would round down to 0!), I bumped it up to 3. That still requires me to get hit with 100 spells to regain all my spell points, but that is much better than requiring 300 spells (which takes about 30 minutes). Perhaps now I will consider actually casting spells? Thus far, even without casting a single non-rune spell, all my time is spent waiting for spell points to recover ... Probably, the late game experience will be different, though, so I think just having a reasonable minimum will do the job.

Good thing, too! 4 in 5 would probably be more suitable, to prevent people from getting Ringil all the time.

100, 0, 33, 33

100, 90, 93, 3
100, 93, 95, 2
etc.
So, take your max sp, subtract out your current sp, and divide the result by 3 (dropping any fractional value). That is how much you will gain back.
The original request was for you to regain 1/3 of max for each potion, but I decided not to do that since in the end game, !Restore Mana is generally plentiful and this class has some tremendously powerful spells (Wraithform, Mana Storm, etc). I still want players to rely on absorption even in the end game, though I am open to criticisms of this change, of course.

But a weapon is the only place to put the Absoption Rune? If you don't get other equipment pieces you can use for aborption, it means that if you want to aborp stuff, you can't use other 'weapon' runes. You might want to make the Absorption-rune available for more armor pieces. (but don't let the Aborption stack)
On 15.12.2010 17:07 dzhang wrote: Actually, that's why we started the player off with a weapon of Absorption... the idea being that the player will always have at least that weapon to Absorb SP with. How did you lose it, Arjen? It shouldn't be able to be damaged by Elements, so the only way is if you dropped it or sold it. Maybe we should make any weapon that has a Rune be {100% off} so you can't sell it for chump change, including the initial weapon?
I don't think we should make Rune of Absorption cost 0 SP. Otherwise, every single one of your early weapons will have it. My guy (Selex) had to scum for a little while to get the SP needed to make Weapons of Absorption, and consequently he only has about 3 of them. (Actually, based on my experience so far, it seems 10 is too low.)
Chris: I was thinking, maybe the SP absorption shouldn't be based on the damage *that you take*, but rather on the *damage before resistance*. Because, if you're a high level Ninja or Balrog, having monsters breathe poison or fire on you should still give a decent chunk of SP back. Also, monster curses that you resist should also give some SP back. Monster spells that confuse/blind/fear should also give some SP back.
On 15.12.2010 17:19 Arjen wrote: I did sell it without thinking that i needed it for SP regen. And i don't see why you won't make is 0 sp. You can easily regenerate SP.
Also.. that force brand rune is pretty powerfull. I used it on a pattern weapon, so now it does 240-600 damage on evil with 4 bpr. Thats quiet some damage. And its not such a great weapon yet. Just think about putting that rune in the Glaive of Pain.

That is indeed the way it currently works :) Although, you may lament the fact that Ents are cheated out of a spell point absorption boost! All I was after was some dumb heuristic to assign costs to spells rather than trying to hack the BM costs to work, and a percentage of initial damage, before resists and vulnerabilities, seemed the way to go. (Aside: The BM costs don't distinguish a Fire Hound breathing or Gothmog breathing ... and those are very different!)
OK, I'm not sure what to do with Rune of Absorption. Perhaps shop keepers shouldn't buy items with Runes? Perhaps a warning if you go to drop it? It could still be stolen ...
The main problems are:
[1] New players who are learning how to play the class.
[2] Early players who get trapped with a crappy absorption broad sword while their mana shoots up early on.
The latter was my experience, and I was rapidly at 100 max sp with no desire to scum so that I could add the rune to something I wanted to actually use. That was the genesis of the 10sp max ... If 10 is too low, how about 50?
Another idea might be for this class to actually gain sp when they level up, in the sense that the gap between the old max and current is preserved whenever mana is calculated. So, if your max sp are 10 and your current sp 3, then leveling up might generate a new max of 16, but lets then set your new current to 9. The same thing can happen when you swap equipment around ...
So, I'm open to ideas on what to do!

And i like the idea of gaining mana when you level up. I deliberately choose a low Int so i don't have to scrum for an hour to fill my mana. It might be tough to get it somewhere nice when you get those insane nice spells, but for now my damage from melee is good enough and runes only cost me 40 sp (max).
But if you are going to set a max, i think 10 is way to low, i would go for 50 at least as max. You already have 300 sp with /120 int. That will be doubled? (wild guess) when you get /***, so you will have 600 sp to spend. This is enough for 60 runes?
Maybe the runecost must be half of your max sp.

I really like this idea, and actually think it should apply to all classes.

Right now, they have absolutely no reason whatsoever to use the force weapon rune. All it does is cripple them if they should have the weapon cursed while they have no means to break the curse.
I do not think adjusting the cost of the absorption rune is the answer. That only treats one small factor of the problem. And how about a means to remove the runes? I have ruined good equipment by accidentally casting one rune when I meant to apply another.
This is a very fun class to play. They have all the spells you really need to win. They just need another way to gain sp. Here are some ideas. Obviously some will not work, but I am throwing them all out anyway.
Mana from hp.
Mana from hunger.
Mana from spawning monsters. (I would abuse this to no end.)
Mana from sacrificing random equipment.
Mana from temporarily lowering stats.
Mana from temporarily lowering AC.
Mana from temporarily lowering speed.
Mana from Chaos effects on yourself and everything else in sight.
Mana from temporarily random polymorphism.
Mana from temporarily random teleportation.
Mana from some combination of the above. Perhaps even randomly selecting one or more of the above.

I'm opposed to innate sp regeneration and innate mana absorption. If it's really a concern that the player would accidentally sell/drop his initial absorption weapon, then make it 100% off, and indestructible (like an artifact)

I dug up an ancient Rune-Knight from my massive backlog of characters to finish (I have 33 unfinished characters at the moment!!).
Well, Rune of Destruction is really out of the question at the moment, and even with Absorption, I went for a long time before something finally breathed on me! So, after I spent my remaining spell points killing Brand (He blinks how often?), I decided to try the swamp trick for regen. That works really well. A stinking cloud from a 7 headed hydra gives back 4sp, so I just ran in circles until I soaked up 110 such poison blasts. Only took 2 minutes ...
So, I really don't want players to have to scum so much for spell points. I'm still open to the possibility that I am misplaying this class ... Perhaps hounds would be a better approach to regain sp while in the dungeon. And of course, I could try dual wielding absorption. I think scumming big dragons is counter productive since they hardly ever breathe, and double resisting cuts back on the absorption totals.

Funny, it always seems like things breathe more when you don't want them to! Oh, I know what to look for: Archviles!
On 22.11.2011 04:40 chris wrote: ****Spoiler****
Its been so long since I played, I forgot how things work.
Double absorption should work. You get 5 points of absorption per rune, and the calculation is MAX(dam * abs / 100, lev/12 + 1)
So, a weak hound breath for say 30 dam, is using the fallback minimum gain, which is 4sp in my case. A big dragon breath goes for up to 80sp, though (monster damage is capped at 1600).
I'm tempted to restart with a race that might be able to actually dual wield!

10 minutes to get sp for a rune of good fortune and to put destruction on Zantetsuken. But, after slowly knifing Ancalagon with my pathetic rapier, I felt like I could use some more firepower. Damage is impressive, though Mana Brand fails near 50%, so is not worth the gamble of so mana spell points. Daoloth was handled nicely, until I ran out of mana mid battle. I had to blow sp for 3 dimension doors, which was annoying. Damage dropped precipitously once the force brand stopped working, but it was still enough. Then 5 minutes holding down the '5' key while electricity hounds refused to breathe ... Sigh.
