ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

So, I died instantly-ish while fighting the derth storm guy, and ever since reviving have had 6 max temporal hounds. It is severely OP, but hilarious. TP+Breath=ded I resummoned the hounds in the void before being sent back, and my old ones were still there when I did. Even if they die, even if I re...

Is Ogre still really good with the extra slot not being free? It is only useful at all if you were getting 2/2 of the buyable ones to start with...

Pretty much title. I have the option to unlock the mobility tree (lvl 10) due to an escort. The other options didn't seem to good so I figured I'd see what was in the tree. Archers are notoriously overflowing with general points so I could fill it fairly well, though as a Thaloren filling in the 2nd...

mindstars have 0 effect on GoP other than boosting your mind power/stats which boost GoP (but it does require at least 1 to be used) The last line of GoP reads "Mindstars bonuses from damage and physical criticals (+5 damage, +5 critical chance)" Which is so grammatically incorrect and am...

I suppose this isn't actually spoilery beyond being a non-base class but better safe than warned... I have a number of questions about how the doomed class's effects work and interact. They are mostly unrelated so I'll just make a list. Do shadows killing things proc unnatural body healing? Do shado...

Thank you both

All in the title. I killed everything in the ambush easily (skeleton bulwark OP) and it created an exit to world map that simply put me back at dreadfell. I tried going to the ghost dude in the fortress and to the 2 archwizards in Anglowen but they have no comment on the staff (though Lilaniil is st...

Well, I was on wave 10 doing just fine at full health when I suddenly died to a white crystal I couldn't even see doing 180 damage at once insta-gibing me...

I just came back after not having played since 37 and a q about something new. Why do my sustained abilities keep turning off due to 'anti-magic forces' randomly? Is there a way to stop/mitigate it? I'm playing a temporal warden and quantum feed/weapon folding turning off while I auto explore to lea...

^Hardy har har.

But seriously, if nothing else the last line is a serious question.

Other news: found a quick dagger of ruin, so perfect.

Typically a dagger, I imagine, but within them what do you go for? I've got the Unerring Scalpel currently, just makes me never miss. Thinking of switching to an 'of ruin' for +crit chance and damage though. (Ideally I'd get a Quick though, haven't found yet...) Beyond daggers shields are an option,...

Toughness isn't even the issue most times, they are just plain suicidal. I posted a game log cap here a few weeks ago documenting a repentant thief detecting a trap well out of the way of the path the portal, running over to it to try to disarm it (why?), stepping on/off it FOUR TIMES IN A ROW, kill...

Finishing the level, I'm now quite sure he saw the trap and was trying to save me from it. The trap was significantly west and slightly north in the room we started in, the portal, I later found was out the SOUTH EAST EXIT. He ran AWAY from his destination TO a deadly trap, FOUR TIMES.
FFS.

I last left the fortress via the top portal, as I typically do for no particular reason. When I came back a little while later, a NPC version of me was still standing there. Unlike last time, this is a different entity; if I hit it, only it takes damage, I can walk into it and swap places, etc. Luck...

We've all had escorts be suicidal; they are coded to help attack then keep moving, even when staying back would be better and by 'better' I mean 'the only way to not die'. That is just the way they work. This, however, defies all reason. I was fighting something, but he didn't care and kept going. T...
