ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

They're the pretendese words for polyurethane and bauxite.

Unfortunately the respec is a lot more likely to actually occur. If I could code, I'd make a balance testing arena. If someone else made one, I'd help gather data with it. It's not going to happen, though, so the game will never really be completely balanced. Besides, the other aspect of the issue i...

Yep. Mouse over the item in your inventory and type the hotkey you want to use. I use ctrl-6 for the chest

So your reason that we shouldn't have respecs is that some skills are crap in the end game, and others are crap in the early game, and you're perfectly happy if that continues to be the case? The existence of skills that are really awful at low levels, or really awful at high levels, is an argument ...

You're arguing against a point no one is making. No one is saying that you should be able to respec at any time, on the fly, for free. Being able to fully respec your whole character once or twice in a game does not ruin balance. It gives the character a different build, which they could also have s...

I've played maybe 10 sunpas and I can never seem to get enough damage up to survive. How on earth did you manage so far?

You mean this?

Now that I think about, I did, and it was mostly confusion that hit me. Lots and lots of confusion.

DarkGod: One problem that I've run into when trying to decide what to recommend as far as buffing certain trees is that generally, any one tree by itself is hard to judge. It's only when you use the skills in conjunction with everything else going on with your character - stats, eq, other skills - t...

1 - Artifacts should probably be reworked in two ways. Firstly, they need to be reliable. For example, the Spellblaze Crystal should drop the crystal focus every time, without fail. The only place to get one should be there. If you want it, kill that. If you don't kill that, you'll never see it. A l...

I disagree with two points being made. Firstly, I can't think of a reason why it would be bad let people use low level useful skills at low levels, and then change to high level useful skills at high levels. Every skill ISN'T equally viable, and since no one seems to be willing to actually do the te...

My first win, and indeed my first character to get anywhere near that far, was Gruevy the Higher Berserker. I had a little trouble with some normal mobs chain confusing/stunning me, and I died eight times overall. I think only one or two of those were to bosses. I found the vor armory guy to be pret...

I accidentally put a point in Survival without noticing, then hit esc to go back to the stat point allocation. Now I can't remove my purchase of that talent tree. This is utter bullshit. For -'s sake, will you just allow respec already? Now I've put in a few hours on a level 22 character and I'm deb...

I could've split these up over 13 posts, but... I'm lazy. 1 - Font issues. In the message window, the [ and ] look like the number one. This matters because damage is shown as [64.35]. 2 - The music replays too often. There should be a period of silence between replays of the music. Constant looping...

From what I hear, no one ever uses them because they kind of suck.
