ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

I loved ToME before the name was changed, and I expect that if I ever have some time to spare, then I will play a game to completion. I am grand master yeek now? LOL - thanks for the compliment! :mrgreen: For any hypothetical vampires out there, your cure is a dose of good music. See at : http://www...

I just bought a climbing set from the BM. Does it allow me to tunnel rubble and climb over walls? I am a thunderlord able to fly, so trees are not a problem...

1) I found a cloak of mist of air a while back. It will be very handy if I Void dive, but will it also allow me to breathe underwater to go into the submerged ruins? 2) I found potions of curing and randarts which cure every 110 turns. What do they cure that a potion of healing will not? In particul...

Thanks for the information! I will wait until clvl 50 because I am a Thunderlord, and want to put all of my experience into my character until then. Also I have spear Aeglos, which is an excellent weapon. I will consider wielding Mormegil at clvl 50 if I have not found one of the uncursed sentient w...

Thanks for the advice! I will carry Mormegil as a swap weapon from now on! I STILL need a very negative dark sword for temporary anti-magic though, don't I? Edit : On second thought, I will stash it until I am clvl 50 because : Ancient Foul Curse (in char sheet, shows up as TY_CURSE) "It carrie...

I just got Mormegil in a fight. Should I stash it for later or donate it to Mathom house? Ancient Foul Curse turns me off...

I read the curses spoiler on AFC. I am going to donate that nasty thing to Mathom house!

Thanks for the information! I got a token (on the surface map near Angband) for a storm giant when I was level 32, but it was hostile when summoned. Does the level 0 summons include higher level monsters found on the surface, such as storm giants and cyclops? Is carrying a dark sword a mistake unles...

Thanks for the advice! I will make getting a skull druj a priority. Now THAT raises another question. If I use the power of the symbiont to summon, does the summoned monster become a free pet or is it a drain on my mana? Also is there a mana limit for the symbiont or are all spells cast free, or in ...

Can the Phial of undeath be flipped using *remove curse* to be +5 to stats rather than -5???

Thanks for the advice! http://tome.dreamer.hu/monster_show.php?id=750 I do not like the look of the Skull Druj magic list. While offensive magic and AC is great, the TRAPS flag makes me leery. If my symbiont clutters up the level by creating traps, it might seriously inconvenience me. Have you actua...

Thanks for the advice! I have been looking at the spoilers and am leaning toward the following allocation of 108 points : 1) Symbiosis to 25 for share major powers - 8 points. 2) Mind craft to 50 - 17 points. 3) Magic to 50 - 19 points 4) Spread blows - 5 points. 5) Extra max blows #2 - 7 points. 6)...

http://angband.oook.cz/ladder-show.php?id=9340 is my character today, a level 32 Thunder lord Mind crafter. I have 108 points left to spend, plus several FF quests likely. It is obvious that I should max out Mind craft to 50 - 17 points. I should also get extra max blows 2 and spread blows for 12 mo...

http://www.lua.org/about.html Looks interesting. But the last work that I did with a scripting language was in 1984, writing about 12k lines of CHAIN in 7 weeks. I was writing a package called Manufacturing Automated Test System 2 (MATS2) at Datapoint. When it hit over 100 DASL source files I starte...

http://angband.oook.cz/forum/showthread.php?t=33 See July 22 posts for discussion of my background. I am an unemployed "crazy" software engineer. I intend to start coding again in the next year or two. I am still deciding which public domain game to invest my time in. I thought it was Angb...
