It's not often that I mess up this quest... The Warriors were rather "unnerving" and things just started going to the dogs after I failed to disarm a summoning trap, gracing me with a Color out of Space that promptly slurped my stats. It looks like my guy totally freaked out as the Maulotaur started beating down and got killed on the spot.

I'm really starting to feel that with the new fear effects, Potions of Boldness are by and far the most important item in the game. It just throws a huge wrench into things that any fight may result in your character not being able to do much of anything for a while, especially since you often want to fight monsters above your level. I do like that fear now affects other things than just melee, it just feels that it can be a bit of a nuisance (that can also kill you instantly...)

The idea of making a "melee Psion" seemed pretty workable so far, though. Shame that I was never able to get a decent AC.

A disarming device is simply a must for this quest; I learned this the hard way a long time ago. I'm surprised you don't have the =oFlames from Doom Quest I for this though; the double resist Fire activation usually helps with the Maulotaur.

Actually, your death makes a lot of sense to me though I sympathize :)

A charisma of 3 gives -15 (!) to your force of personality so your net power was only 15 (Low end charisma is hugely detrimental, and high end is hugely beneficial). A maulotaur is a L50 monster, but neither powerful nor unique, so his score is 50. 15 vs 50 is a disaster waiting to happen ... You only have 16% chance of saving! The paralysis save is against something like (Threat + Fear)/6, so its bad to be very scared.

In contrast, were you L30 with an 18 charisma, say, your power would be 48. 48 vs 50 is only a 49% save which is bad, but you would probably make your paralyis saves (~75%). Chug a potion of heroism before hand and your initial save goes to 74% while your paralysis save goes to 94%.

Still, the new fear code is very experimental, so feedback is important. I guess it might be harder to take huge risks these days? Victor, have you tried it out yet?

Wow, you guys reply fast! :D

I think it's cool that Charisma has a bigger effect (didn't realize it was that big), but there's a bit of a flavor disconnect here... It feels kinda wrong that a Balrog of all things would be a total wimp. The Ring of Flames would have been good to have indeed, I guess I should have just parted with some of those pretty Unique corpses and left more stuff home (I play without the powerup home).

On 20.9.2012 17:31 chris wrote:
Hmmm ... If the meaning of Charisma has changed from "How much the shopkeepers love me" to "ability to impose/resist fear," perhaps the racial charisma adjustments should change as well? A Balrog with +3 Charisma would not bother me a bit, and the store benefits of this could be written down to shopkeeper fear! Heck, if a big, flaming monster walked into my shop ...

On 20.9.2012 17:49 A.Waenerberg wrote:
Yeah, the classes and personalities should get looked at as well. A Blood-Knight is now 6 points more cowardly than a Bard, "Mighty" and "Fearless" have no bearing on fear, etc.

On 20.9.2012 18:26 dzhang wrote:
I'm a little hesitant to give out too many positive CHA bonuses to races, because now we have a significant (and increasing) number of caster classes based on CHA. For example, I'm not sure I want Half-Trolls to be great warlocks. Maybe a reasonable compromise is a race-based bonus to "force of personality" as well?

On 20.9.2012 18:50 dzhang wrote:
I'm OK with the current Personality effects on CHA. Mighty describes your combat ability, rather than fear-imposing ability, and Fearless (should) give you RFear.

Class CHA does need to be updated a bit though; will do that right now.

Actually, what do you guys feel about making Shop prices based on WIS? To me, WIS is common sense, and being able to effectively barter should be in the realm of WIS.

I guess that works too. Dwarves would like it.
