ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

Perhaps cursed equipment could occur naturally, as a third ego type that gives significant bonuses and penalties. Probably just the penalties... and Fateful Aura would allow you to get the good stuff out of curses. The first talent of the tree would have to be redone though. Cursed Touch Passive: I...

I'm sorry to disagree with you, but I like the system as it is. There are a lot of stamina, stamina regen and -fatigue items that you're probably overlooking and would make your life easier. And probably some mild investment in willpower or not using plate would be a choice for you if you really nee...

Sounds like a challenge!

That's actually a good idea there... We should make custom scenario tutorials for some of the classes. One fixed map with 3 or 4 rooms force feeding you xp to level 10 or so, while explaining the basics of the class. Alchemists, Summoners, Anorithils, Wardens and Reavers at least... Those classes th...

Dreads and Dreadmasters were already extremely punishing to 'hit' classes with their huge defense and I think invisibility just made it worse. You could probably give them -100% physical resistance to balance them out, but I think it would probably be best just to make them easier to hit.

No, no, a teleport rune... New player checks out his golem... ooh, what does this do? The Golem disappears into the other side of the map while the player figures out how to kill a Troll alone. Now seriously... maybe a low cooldown Heat Beam and a 20% speed rune with 30 charges or so. P.S. - Better ...

Do people actually bother to put points in the base talent just for the cooldown? Actually there are some tier 1 racials that are quite useful IF you're using the right stat, although I partially agree with you since cooldown reduction 45 -> 30 or something doesn't really create much of an impact b...

I think it's mostly Healing Light and Providence. I think the AI doesn't use infusions over 80% hp and maybe the same thing should be done for Healing Light.

The same thing happens with stuns. Let's say you have a 10 damage per turn poison on a monster... if you get stunned it will tick for 3. The way to fix this would be to redesign the base system a bit. DoTs, AoE and projectiles would have to get their final damage (with multipliers) computed on cast ...

Which version are you using? There were some issues with Shockbolt a few betas back.

Every vim user gets an extra point of vim-on-kill per 10 willpower. A moderate willpower investment (effective 30-40) makes a tremendous difference in long term/large number fights. While this is true in the early-mid game, all willpower is meaningless when your drain starts passing the 500 mark re...

The truth is Corruptors don't actually use Willpower, no real benefits in doing so. They're the Berserkers of magic I guess.

Actually I think the class would be much more interesting it it used hp instead of vim as a resource, although that would require some redesigning.

Post-east Sandworm Lair... don't get eaten though .

Did you respawn in the Mark of the Spellblaze or in the Fearscape?

I've been fiddling about with magical classes and they could use a tree to invest generic points such as combat training. This would be a starter generic tree for Mages, Anorithils, Corruptors and Paradox Mages and probably an unlockable for Arcane Blades, Shadowblades, Paladins, Reavers and Wardens...
