Well, I lurked at PA for a long time, so I thought it would be better to jump in and start posting rather than to inflict a "Hi, I'm new" thread on the board.Crayz9000 wrote:

Nice try at avoiding getting poked. Now feel the cleansing power of pure thermonuclear fire!Xisiqomelir wrote:Well, I lurked at PA for a long time, so I thought it would be better to jump in and start posting rather than to inflict a "Hi, I'm new" thread on the board.Crayz9000 wrote:

Don't worry, it wasn't personal. I just have a history of bad experiences with mind flayers from NetHack...Xisiqomelir wrote:Well, I lurked at PA for a long time, so I thought it would be better to jump in and start posting rather than to inflict a "Hi, I'm new" thread on the board.

Consider yourself poked.
Oh, and welcome.
And likes to eat brains...Exonerate wrote:D&D RPG creature. Has psychic attacks.
They're usually the first species to be genocided in any NetHack game I do. Otherwise, it usually takes two or three whacks with a weapon like Grayswandir or Frost Brand to bring them down, and by that point they've usually dropped a few intelligence points and given my character amnesia...Ghost Rider wrote:But yes, nasty suckers...with their blasted psi attack and brain eating...though they do worship a giant brain mass...sorta ironic as I see it.

Haha, I loved my BG2 campaign. My main character was a kensai with 18s in everything that counts, but a wisdom of 2...Ghost Rider wrote:Well I can see why
...though why when I think of them the whole Zombie "Brains...BRAINS!!" always rings a bell in my head.
Either way...I hate the suckers in BG2 where they have multiple spell immunities...and if I'm lucky only one character has gone stupid on me.
)But Mindflayers look like Cthulhu without wings.... And by the way, not all Mindflayers are purple. (The 3rd Edition Monster Manual depicts a Mindflayer with green skin)neoolong wrote:How dangerous could it possibly be? It's purple.
There's nothing like getting mobbed by 2 master mind flayers and a few underlings (all summoned by an arch-lich) in NetHack. If you don't have a wand of death (or the spell finger of death) and that happens... you can kiss your brain goodbye.Master of Ossus wrote:Mind flayers are pieces of shit. I had to fight my way through a sewer full of them in "Baldur's Gate II."
The first time I fought one of them, they instantly confused my half-orc fighter who went around bashing everyone with a Crom Faeyr, killed my mage, and seriously injured my archer. When I finally made it through the fucking sewer, though, it was worth it. That place has AWESOME loot.Crayz9000 wrote:There's nothing like getting mobbed by 2 master mind flayers and a few underlings (all summoned by an arch-lich) in NetHack.

They have starships that carry 'Great Old Ones'. Do we really want to fuck with them?neoolong wrote:How dangerous could it possibly be? It's purple.
