ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

In my opinion, the fun comes from experimenting with new skills, not being told which are good and which are bad. Also, descriptions aren't always enough to help player choice. Playing with lightning speed the first time was super fun, however I wouldn't have chosen it based on the description alone...

congrats! running a late-game antimagic wyrmic too right now (shield rather than double wield though), agree with all your points. double movement infusions for the win!

I like the tigereye proposal. Playing a wyrmic through the latest beta (level 43 now) and have been somewhat ignoring armor because its effects are much less noticeable than before. This seems like it would make armor feel more useful without overpowering it.

Just beat the game for the first time with a L50 mindslayer ( http://te4.org/characters/2267/tome/e7d9b7ec-3d00-11e0-8945-001cc000edf0 ), was a lot of fun! A few thoughts while still fresh in my mind: - The early game was a pretty interesting balancing act which required some shield spiking and mana...

Seems that it would allow more experimentation with different skills and the ability to recover from less-useful choices without starting over. Even limiting it (e.g., one respec per 10 levels, 3 max; limit...

Thanks, that worked!

I agree that it would be nice to just have a slightly grayed-out version to indicate stealth if possible.

While I like the idea of graying things out when activating stealth, it makes it much harder to play the game (e.g., identifying monsters, items, etc.). Is there any way to turn this off? Would be great to have a toggle or something. Thanks!

When I did it I had to kill the boss in each area (I think lumberjack is first) to move on. Maybe bump each square to check?

Thanks all for the advice. Have tried Spydric, phase doors, and even set up a disengage that would land me right next to him, but he teleported away each time before I could hit him. Will wander around and see what else I can find...

Have a level 33 rogue "Jimmy the Hand" in the far east, trying to kill the grand necromancer in the Rath'Kor (?) pride but he keeps teleporting away anytime I get close to him, even with stealth on. Unfortunately don't have the rush tree unlocked, and even when I controlled phase door near...
