ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

Huh. And here I thought that was a pretty useless prodigy. 5 generic points though? There's a few builds that could sure use that!

Phase Door has a tendency to put you in the same bad situation you are already in. Teleport can, at least, put you in a new terrible situation. Agreed, but there's one case where I find phase door to be quite useful: Not *escaping*, but to simply put a bit of distance between you and your target. R...

What, a no-stat cloak isn't good enough for you?

Any success in this field? I just manually replaced the file instead, which gives a bad game version and prevents profiles and linking any interesting items I find.

I was bandying around the idea that using a Blood of Life as an undead would convert you to a random, living race while still keeping a few perks. Like, skeletons would keep their existing points in Skeleton and Resilient Bones [since those are more physical/magical modifications to your structure] ...

Also, poison traps stay working in the Arena. Even if you disarm the trap. (Not sure what happens if you disarm the trap before the wave [and therefore, current trap] changes though.)

Are there still text/console modes for ToME 4? There's an option for ASCII mode. It isn't console, but is similar at a glance. Is there still a wizard mode... one probably cannot even copy their save-file... There is, but you have to activate it separately. And yes, you can copy saves. What happene...

So, after a bit of cajoling, I finally got a friend of mine, a vet of Nethack and DoomRL, to give ToME4r41 a shot. Long story short: He found the new skill screen to be impenetrable-- couldn't click and drag to scroll and the mouse-overs were obstructing the buttons preventing them from being clicke...

Most of these sounds pretty good to me, though a few are dependent on previous conditions being met. 1. I think two tabs might be easier in this case, but splitting up class and generic sounds good to me. Seems like the idea was to get rid of tabs though... 5. Disagree on this one-- either keep the ...

Just tossing in another opinion in to the fray: keep resting separate from autoexplore, or at least make it an default-off optional selection. Cursed, for example, might find it troublesome. I'm not sure if this is relevant anymore, but I've also run around with degen before, which would've been eve...

I wish I could find Black Friday deals like that...

I whipped together a class in b14 or so that operated on a vaguely-similar idea of combined effects and duration AoEs that was quite interesting to play [in my opinion]. The general idea I ran with was that what you did was open portals to various places and, by opening portals on top of each other,...

I think of speed/turns as fractional values (which isn't actually accurate, as a 'turn' is actually an amount of time, with a frame of reference outside of the character). Something like: 1000 points per turn are generated at 100% global speed Movement takes 1000 points at 100% movement speed. I'm s...

I finished a Yeek MS game a while back... Basically, the Yeek bosses [Whatever they were called. Hive?] say that the portal is a massive source of energy and, if a powerful Yeek mind [yours] were to fuse with it, harmony could be achieved. A. Do you sacrifice yourself as directed? -- You do it, ther...

I'm not positive on this one [and it's rather a coding oversight], but can't you also respec the talent+class point from Last Hope's graveyard too?
