| |
| ---------------------------------------------------
| |
| | |
| Branches, Environment
| |
| ---------------------
| |
| * It is now possible to enter the Vaults without holding a rune. However,
| |
| a rune is still required to leave.
| |
| * Slime walls now apply corrosion to the player, rather than dealing damage.
| |
| Jiyva's Oozemancy ability still deals damage as before.
| |
| * Thunderstorms now deal much more damage.
| |
| | |
| Character
| |
| ---------
| |
| * New background: Reaver.
| |
| - Reavers are warrior-mages, primarily focused on melee combat but with
| |
| situational Conjurations for tough situations.
| |
| - Reavers begin with two new spells, Kiss of Death and Momentum Strike,
| |
| as well as a revised version of the Hailstorm spell.
| |
| * Species rework: Palentonga -> Armataur.
| |
| - Like Palentongas, Armataurs are large, scaled mammals, wearing bardings
| |
| instead of boots.
| |
| - Armataurs lose the Rolling Charge and Curl abilities. They gain Rollpage
| |
| (innate Rampage) and long tongues, which double the effects of potions but
| |
| slow down scroll reading.
| |
| - Armataurs' aptitudes have been adjusted.
| |
| * Background changes:
| |
| - Warpers replace Gell's Gravitas with Vhi's Electric Charge.
| |
| - Hedge Wizards have Conjure Flame replaced by Cigotuvi's Dreadful Rot.
| |
| - Fire Elementalists have Conjure Flame replaced by Kindle Blastsparks.
| |
| - Ice Elementalists have Hailstorm replaced by Summon Ice Beast.
| |
| - The 'Arcane Marksman' background has been renamed to 'Hexslinger'.
| |
| * All players regenerate an extra 0.2 HP/turn.
| |
| * Mummies have innate Faith, giving them extra piety gain.
| |
| * Large species move at normal speed through shallow water.
| |
| * It is now possible to accumulate two levels of Harm.
| |
| * Formicids can now shaft themselves in the Tomb of the Ancients.
| |
| * Reaching the end of the Zot clock now causes a smaller amount of permanent
| |
| max HP loss (similar to Borgnjor's Revivication), rather than temp HP drain.
| |
| * Species size no longer affects SH.
| |
| * rF- and rC- are added to the 'bad mutations' pool.
| |
| * Pale draconians' breath is no longer usable twice as often as others'.
| |
| * Will is now capped at +++++.
| |
| * Removed the Abyssal Knight background.
| |
| | |
| Gods
| |
| ----
| |
| * Lugonu:
| |
| - Banishment is now available at ** piety (from ***), has a lower failure
| |
| chance, and causes malmutation when resisted.
| |
| - When the player suffers the wrath of another god, Lugonu now responds by
| |
| banishing some number of hostile monsters nearby.
| |
| - Lugonu's altars are more common in the Abyss, and the piety bonus for
| |
| converting to Lugonu in the Abyss has been increased.
| |
| - The Bend Space ability has been removed.
| |
| * Ashenzari:
| |
| - Skill boost reduced.
| |
| - Trap detection moved to 4* (was at 0*).
| |
| - Removed Astral Vision (automatically seeing through walls).
| |
| * When worshipping at a faded altar, the player is given a preview of three
| |
| gods the altar might belong to.
| |
| * Xom's mutation gifts are no longer limited to a small pool of options.
| |
| * Gozag's corpse-to-gold effect now blocks enemies from creating simulacra,
| |
| and the duration of the distraction effect is no longer based on corpse size.
| |
| * Fedhas protects trees from being set on fire by the player.
| |
| * Okawaru's Heroism and Finesse abilities cost more piety.
| |
| * Hepliaklqana's Knight now attacks 50% more slowly.
| |
| * Good gods will now suppress evil clouds from Condenser Vanes.
| |
| | |
| Interface and Options
| |
| ---------------------
| |
| * Two new menus that unify all equip and unequip actions:
| |
| - The Equip menu (`e`) combines wield, wear, and put on commands for equipping
| |
| weapons, armour, and jewellery, respectively.
| |
| - The Unequip menu (`c`) allows to unwield, take off, or remove any equipped
| |
| item.
| |
| - Tab toggles between equip and unequip.

| |

| |
| enemy, at the cost of significant max HP drain to the caster.
| |
| - Momentum Strike (L2 Conj/Tloc). Redirects the caster's momentum for a
| |
| damaging attack that doesn't require line of fire, but locks the caster in

| place for some turns after a hit (and cannot be recast until this expires).

| |
| to create a cloud of deadly miasma on their tile.

| |
| caster's tile, usable as a land mine or tricky tool.
| |
| - Vhi's Electric Charge (L3 Tloc/Air). Launches the caster at a nearby foe
| |
| and launches a crackling melee attack, phasing through creatures en route.
| |
| - Arcjolt (L5 Air/Conj). Electrocutes everything adjacent to the caster,
| |
| everything adjacent to those creatures, etc, etc, in a chain.
| |
| - Plasma Beam (L5 Fire/Air): Fires a bolt of lightning and another bolt of
| |
| fire both at the most distant foe.

| |
