I'm playing another wand-using character, and I think I've put my finger on why Wands are so "meh" compared to Smithing, Alchemy, or Tinkering -...
Ok, I've spent lots of time exploring and enjoying the game - but now I really judge my builds on how well they can kill Lord Dredmor. I've...
I play plenty of non-crafting characters, but I still end up keeping a few crafting components around - for some bits and pieces. I suspect...
[ATTACH] I've never seen this before - is it a result of the new rooms added in YHTNTEP? It's always been 3 shops per level - unless using...
So, I decided to make another run at a 100:dodge: character. I've tried this in the past, but never had much luck with it. The buffs to dodge,...
The real treat is the various tweaks and balance changes! Melee power bonus for weapon skills! Pedantic Beating... yikes! Hold on... Nice Combo...
To take a break from the incessant poking, prodding, and generally negative (but loving!) threads about game mechanics, I thought I'd make a list...
This is something that came up in the "Great Shield Improvement Thread." But I wanted to make it more visible, because I really, really like the...

I've just finished my play-through with a were-diggle character. This is something I've been trying to do for a while now, and I finally sat...
Did you know that I'm not only a Dredmore enthusiast, but also a developer of my own games? It's true. My company just released my first indie...
I'm not using "Rogue" in the sense of "Rogue-like" - I mean skills and stats which make you nimble, evasive, and sneaky. Specifically, I'm...
I was thinking - it's hard to explain to people that at higher difficulties base regen amounts are different. But it needn't be so. If you have...
I'm trying to fill out my Steam achievements, so I needed a character who would take the entire Shield Bearer tree. I decided to go super...
I wasn't sure if I should put this under the bugs forum or under suggestions... If I take sword skills, the bonuses granted by that skill tree...
The #1 most commented-on element from my strategy guide is the section where I explain which skill is associated with which archetype (Warrior,...
Was on dungeon level 3, standing next to Brax in his shop. It's time for me to go to bed, so I hit escape, click "Save and Quit" and then watch...
Wand Lore is a pretty cool skill tree - but level 2 and 4, which increase your "Wand Use Affinity" are a joke. Wands are totally unreliable, even...
After all the love from my previous entries, I thought it was time to tackle one of the (very few) negative feelings I have about the game....
