  1,647    150 ft   I was afraid of this... perhaps secret door on level
  1,647    150 ft   But atm... chasms block only known access
  1,834    150 ft   How many turns to I burn looking for a door, that might
  1,834    150 ft   not even exist
  1,856    150 ft   well... found a door... that leads to another chasm 
  2,060    150 ft   Saving character to reload and inspect map later
  2,060    150 ft   Leaping is something I really need... but fuck

Really enjoying 1.2, but have only tried a small handful of characters. This is maybe my 4th or 5th, and second, or third?, ironman attempt.

I really love the atmosphere that chasms add. Anything that punches up the feel of being in a realized place as opposed to a bunch of walls is a huge plus.

I really love leaping, but for me, too expensive. For ironman characters, leaping is probably a vital choice... but for my playstyle, it just guts my early game xp. My other ironman got to ~600ft, but the dodge/leaping proved to make crowdfighting/heavy armor way too costly... plus, I only got the chance to leap now and again. I guess I could try to make boots of leaping, or to buy a mattock from first forge.

See screenshots for dangers of ironman with no leaping. At the moment, I'm cut off from all paths, but I do at least have a mattock. At 150', I was forced to jump, as I had no mattock and could find no secret door. I made a save to look at of this 150' version and I just looked at it with debug mode... Indeed, there was only one square with a mattock I could broken to reveal the only connecting passageway, but no secret doors. Leaping or that one quartz block were only ways to clear the level.

Haha, that was hilarious. I was completely surrounded by nether worms who helps me gain access to the rest of the level. I backed myself into a corner surrounded by chasms and finished of Gilim. It cost me a good deal of hitpoints. The trolls nearby were battering me, but they were not pushing me down into the chasms. I call 'not fair' on this... if we can get monsters down into chasms, they should be able to do the same for us. I had 7 hp, and figured jumping down the chasm might kill me... but wanted to learn if chasm fall is a straight damage roll, or a percentage of hit points roll.... turns out it's flat damage. I'll post the worms screenshot. It's hard to stay in ironman character when such a hilarious opportunity presents itself.

I think elliptic said falling damage is 6d4 (unless you jump at 900' in which case it's 3d4)?

Ah, thanks Debo, and Elliptic too, I guess.

I still haven't ready your endgame spoiler thread yet. I'm dying to know if Morgoth sings Celine Dione, or, perhaps Bing Crosby? Ozzy? Maybe I'll get to the throne room before my new computer parts start showing up... once that happens, I probably will vanish for a few years.

I'll double check the Troll Knock Back pushing you into chasms. It is certainly meant to do so. Maybe you were just rolling well on your checks to resist it (it is Con dependent).

Ah, okay! I might've been passing my rolls then. I thought that anytime the game says "battered", that I would always be pushed backwards if possible. Did not realize I could be battered but still save vs. knockback. I play entirely from assumptions, intuition, experience and advice I read from forums.. in other words.. I have no idea what is actually happening... only what I think is happening, so sorry if I keep putting out misinformation.

By the way, is there any extra damage for situations where you would've been pushed backwards, but were up against a wall?

I remembered I had a backup save since I went back to look at my 150 situation. I was able to get a troll to batter me into the chasm, which is awesome! It took him a fair number of tries.

Yes, there are quite a few fun ways to interact with chasms and being knocked into them is one! Glad to hear it is working.

You (and the monsters) don't take any extra damage if knocked into a wall or monster, and nor do you have to skip a turn. So it is pretty advantageous to be up against a wall. Skipping a turn without being knocked back would be too rough, but some extra damage might be fair. As you will see, Trolls are especially nasty if there is another monster nearby (such as another Troll) which can hit you during the skipped turn.
