Mutually exclusive: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 17:44, 12 February 2026

Version 0.34: This article is up to date for the latest stable release of Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup.

When two or more objects are mutually exclusive, they cannot appear in the same game. In Crawl, they fulfill a similar yet non-identical role in the game.

Branches

Only one branch from each set will appear in a game:

Poison Lair Branch: The Spider's Nest, The Snake Pit
Water Lair Branch: The Shoals, The Swamp

Because each of these branches houses a rune and gem, their runes/gems will also be exclusive from each other.

Items

See alternate items.

Monsters

Orb of appropriateness: * Orb of fire, * Orb of winter, * Orb of entropy

Only one monster from this set will appear in Zot. Which type that is set to appear can be seen through the statues in the Temple and just outside of Zot (can be viewed via ctrl-O if these statues have already been found). All three may appear in Ziggurat levels in any game.

History

0.34: Added orb of appropriateness exclusiveness.
0.33: Added phial of floods / gell's gravitambourine exclusiveness.
0.30: Added tin of tremorstones / condenser vane exclusiveness.
0.29: Introduced exclusive item sets (adding AOE / Bolt / Hex wand exclusiveness).
0.11: Added Spider/Swamp and Shoals/Swamp exclusiveness.
