ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

I haven't played in a couple months, sludgenest is worse grinding than anything previously, and crushed my spirit with endless grinding. 1. Precognition will save whatever is going on in the level if you leave without canceling it. In sludgenest I would precog and wait until a lvl 25 ooze spawned, c...

Yeah, what they said, congrats. I didn't think they were viable on madness, since my temporal warden regularly gets hit for 6k+. Maybe arcane blades are the best class? Guide plz!

Please don't change the withered thing on higher difficulties, I enjoy him being difficult, people will just need to learn they can't fight him immediately. He's very difficult early, but you don't need to charge everything right away, that's part of higher difficulties.

I agree with everyone else, I'm jealous and impressed. Also threatened, been trying on roguelike since 1.1.5 release and it's more than a challenge. I'm hoping you don't beat me there! No vault on roguelike though

Shantiz proc'd to destroy a fireflash and my characters abilities cost 0 resources. I'm hoping someone knows how to fix this, I've been playing this Temporal Warden for almost 13 days. It's on Madness and I just made it to the armory, so don't want to abandon him. I tried to find the cause in the sa...

I know this isn't a problem for most people, but I'd like to have a second hotkey bar with just different equipment. There isn't enough space in the 60 available for all abilities in addition to all this. I'm playing a temporal warden right now. I need to switch gear to get the effect reduction stuf...

So I haven't tested this everywhere since I just noticed it. For ancient elven ruins, when I enter it the first time, use precognition as my first action, cancel precog to get vision, and then leave; when I return it generates the level over again. I'm not sure if this occurs for every level, or eve...

To even make it that far you've already proven a certain mental capacity for mind numbing game-play. Give people a year or so to see if its even possible to make it that far before trying to balance them. How much health does the sun paladin get? He should get some random extra classes too. If he's ...

I'm of the opposite opinion. The scaling will force creative solutions, and the final boss will feel like a boss. Flurry on a poorly geared marauder without the item vault hit the mage for 26k. With better gear or a higher damage class you could probably hit for 50k. They need health in that range s...

Weak ego's: helms and boots are pretty weak in general. Wizard hats are the exception, they're best on almost everyone, but caps and helms are pretty bad. Strong ego's: armor of thunder, it's way too good. Crit chance/crit mult ego's are way too good. Warmaking gloves and cloaks of conjuring/backsta...

You'll need to die a bunch in tome before you realize how to prepare for certain things.

I also played nethack and recall endless bricks falling on my head and dying. Tome is no where near that. Almost all deaths are a result of player mistakes.

grillick (sp?), the tentacle guy got a huge nerf when he lost perfect chasing. Seems like he should have tentacle grab and some of the new tentacle related talents. If he summoned tentacles behind you he'd be horrible to fight. Some of the uniques I remember I haven't seen in ages. I recall a phoeni...

I just discovered this as well, gauntlets nerf attack speed, but gloves leave it unchanged. Very strange. Happened on a cursed and a berserker, so it probably happens with all classes and is a problem with gauntlets.

I could imagine the torture of having Argoniel with shield wall and 400 armor, or Elandar as a summoner... I like this better than just increasing the level of the later content, since levels don't address the bosses being relatively weak compared to regular enemies. I also enjoy the non-linearity o...

What?! people have a problem with the genocide of orcs? They're an abomination, the loot is just a bonus for their extinction. It's a kill or be killed scenario. I imagine it's the same thing with the adventuring parties. Either it's you that attack them, trying to steal their loot, or it's the othe...
