20:45 <RLdiscord2@> <@luxidream> a
20:52 <aosdict@> yes, ants
21:25 <jonadab@> Evil Patch Idea: ants generate in more realistic numbers.
21:26 <jonadab@> Say, 10d25 or so.

10:58 <RLdiscord2@> <@greqrg> Elbereth is probably the biggest change that would affect streaks for some players, followed by the MC nerf probably
11:01 <jonadab@> Sounds right.
11:02 <jonadab@> EPI: the length of your current streak gets added into the level difficulty formula. So if your last game ended in an ascension but the previous didn't, monster difficulty is 1 higher on any given level... If you're on a 10 streak, it's 10 higher...
11:11 <RLdiscord2@> <@greqrg> That actually sounds like a really fun challenge jonadab
11:31 <FIQ@> jonadab: wrong channel
11:33 <jonadab@> FIQ: Oh, yes, that's true.
12:04 <rumflump@> jonadab: that EPI exists in Larn
12:04 <rumflump@> though it's not streak-based, it's simply your number of victories

21:55 <RLdiscord@> <@akaTrickster> disintegration sucks
21:56 <aosdict@> no, you're thinking of mind flayers
21:58 <jonadab@> Evil Patch Idea: in addition to disintegration breath, disintegration traps, and darts of disintegration, we clearly also need wands of disintegration, potions of disintegration, scrolls of disintegration, a "disintegrate player" monster arcane spell, disintegration gazes, disintegration melee attacks, telepathic disintegration attacks that work at psy range, ...
22:01 <RLdiscord@> <@wheals> cone of disintegration

11:03 <jonadab@> Yes, it's always seemed odd to me that killing it in other ways doesn't do that.
11:07 <aosdict@> There's a source comment stating it's iffy how your god gets angry at all.
11:12 <jonadab@> YASI: in addition to luck, alignment record, and divine anger, also track a fourth thing, karma.
11:12 <jonadab@> Because it's not confusing enough as it is.
11:13 <rld@> <@Entitas> Until it does something, at which point it's the most important stat in the game.
11:14 <aosdict@> My work on converting anger into +/-favor is pretty far along, except that it doesn't really have any way to handle the things that alignment record currently tracks.
11:14 <jonadab@> YASI: if your karma is sufficently good when you die, you get brought back as a cow.

21:50 <FIQ@> good thing dyna has magic chests
21:51 <rld@> <@Tone> so I end up with a handful of "mini stashes"
21:51 <jonadab@> Evil Patch Idea: monsters can unlock your stash chest and get into it _while you're off-level_.
21:51 <FIQ@> yeah I do that rarely if I have a carrycap of like 50
21:51 <FIQ@> 0
21:51 <FIQ@> and no BoH
21:51 <FIQ@> but that is basically never
21:52 <rld@> <@Tone> it happens when I have a weak role and no soko BoH
