Talk:Conduct

I changed Nudist conduct to disallow shields too. Real-life nudists commonly wear shoes and hats, and if you allow those as well, the conduct loses its sting. --Jayt 14:21, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

In Slash'Em, the logfile contains "Conduct=x" where x is a number. Is this a code representing tracked conducts, and if so how does it track them?

I'm still new to this game but was wondering if eating metal (when polymorphed into something that can) breaks vegan or vegatarian conducts? --Suddo 00:57, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

Metal doesn't come from an animal, and isn't the meat of an animal. No, it doesn't break either conduct. --Marcmagus 04:41, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

Unofficial conducts

Can anyone add unnofical conducts?--72.76.251.6 00:19, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

Don't know about anyone else, but I am always interested in hearing other people's odd little challenges. --Mogri 00:40, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

well, it's settled, I've added a page of Unofficial Conducts, so anyone can add their own conducts at their heart's desire.--Edrobot 00:58, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

Should we really have all these duplicated on the main article page? I suggest either moving all unofficial conducts off to their page, or (my preferred approach) keeping all conducts in the two sections of this page. --GreyKnight 22:26, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

Known inventoryless?

Are there any records about any inventoryless ascenssions?

Inventory-less ascensions? Do you mean if it's not constantly wielded, quivered, or worn, it's never on your person? --FJH 23:15, 25 February 2011 (UTC)

No, if it's not required to win the game (e.g. the amulet of yendor, the invocation artifacts) it's never on your person. See Unofficial_conduct#Inventoryless -- Qazmlpok 23:18, 25 February 2011 (UTC)

Never Used Elbereth

candles break conduct

• the lack of candles is surely only a game-breaking issue for pacifists. if you've absolutely positively explored every square that you can and there're no candles, then no death drops means no more, ever. however, if you're no a pacifist there is a possibility that no candles will be generated, but as the length of the game increases the probability approaches zero. if you've not got a candle from a death drop your game is too short. worth noting? --194.116.198.185 12:06, 2 August 2012 (UTC)

AFAIK the issue with candles and conducts is: if you eat tallow candles as a gelcube, you lose vegetarian conduct. --Tjr (talk) 12:08, 2 August 2012 (UTC)

Wouldn't it be that if you didn't get enough candles you would have to wish for them? That aside, I wonder how pacifist would have to do with that. Elronnd(talk) 21:03, 31 December 2015 (UTC)

Yeah it's only really an issue for multi-conduct pacifists. It's quite true that getting the last candles will require breaking one of those conducts; it's just usually irrelevant since almost all characters violate pacifist conduct anyway, meaning they can just farm death drops. -Ion frigate (talk) 17:24, 2 August 2012 (UTC)

In 3.6 I've seen several gnomes drop partly-lit candles when killed. I believe these were part of their inventory rather than death drops, but I don't remember whether I or my pet killed them so I can't be certain. Funcrunch (talk) 21:00, 31 December 2015 (UTC)
