~Beyond the Border~ > Genji's Battle Arena
[ROGUE] Okay let's play some NetHack (and DCSS!) (and Angband!) (and Slash'em!)
Myschi:
First character: Escaped at level one because I thought stairs didn't lead out. >>
Second: Caught in own magical blast.
Third: Dwarf digging pick'd to death.
Also, how d'ya use the altars/etc? Is there any general 'do an action with this thing' key?
Tengukami:
You can Offer at the altars, if you have something to sacrifice. I haven't done that yet.
Matsuri:
Altars are generally used for offering corpses for sacrifices to your god. To do that, make sure you have a corpse (the fresher the better), stand on the altar, and type #offer, then the corpse's letter. Of course, it's better to make sure the altar has the same alignment as you, or else bad things could happen. (Use / to identify stuff.)
Of course, the wiki can provide a lot more info than I can.
Shizumarashi Mayuzumi:
Also you can use altars to identify if stuff if blessed or cursed (or neither), regardless of its alignment. Just drop stuff on it and it'll flash... I wanna say it's amber for blessed, black for cursed (and I know it's no flash for just plain old uncursed)? Either way, it'll add the BUC status to the item's listing for sure, whether I got the colors right or not. :V
Matsuri:
!!
wtf I didn't know that
Thanks, Arashi <3
