ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

actually no, they can spend the 50g on it too and get it, at least this was the case and I dont think it was changed.

50g isn't free. I'd rather spend the talent category point than farm gold, even if it is worse for a perfectly min-maxed grinding/farming character in the long term.

Nice post!
And well done!

Ok maybe insane mode is not insane enough, if people won .. Oh but you were cheating! I dont think the difficulty setting works on summons! Ohhh must fix!

As for your comments on the summons:
- I'll make the fire drake immune to fire and I'll check it's breath
- I'll try to find why minotaur do not get a weapon they really should ..
- Maybe turtle could get a "shell shield" ability that temporarily reduces damage taken by X% ?
- I'll probably redo spider to be based on the now existing spider monsters
- Control summon "Some very serious targeting issues and other bugs plague this ability", what exactly ?

I am happy you like summoners, it was kinda hard to think of a good system that was not cheesy as T2 one was

Do you have more info on the minotaur ? Any special situations where he did not get its weapon ? a zone ?

I'm not sure that "everything except hydras is worthless at higher level" counts as a good system. When you have to invest so many talent points you'll never get back, shouldn't every skill be useful throughout all of the game?

I haven't got anywhere near this far in the game, but the Fire Imp seems consistently useful throughout the entire game. I generally pump points into the Fire Imp talent whenever there's nothing more urgently required.

Yes people like him, shoob or vanguard are disgusting aren't they ?!

actually it is, I just checked. you do have to have the 50 gold though before you see that option, which might be why you thought you couldn't do it.
