ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

This is a starter zone filled with lvl 4-6 enemies. I did not open any vaults (even if I had, it would have been unfair; maybe it was a corner-connects-to-corridor thing?). It was NOT fun having my lvl 12 arcane blade two-shotted in a starter zone otherwise filled with fodder. Seriously, this is the...

... and that is the least interesting of my suggestions, I agree (re: tablet).

Would really love to see the classes re-balance & escort quest taming, though. It will make the game much better.

Bonus question:

How do you save an Arcane Blade? How much of this advice converts well?

You still got Aegis and Conveyance, as well as the Paladin/Light skill tree (which everyone needs: I say *ban* escort rewards & keep Paladins special!)

Excellent. Many thanks for the detailed replies. I have one more question: how about Temporal? Is Temporal Shield or the +50% speed sustain good investments?

How about divination?
How do you handle stealthed enemies in the dark?

Also, what is a good save stat to aim at? How do you achieve it?

Many thanks.

... or the defense sustain from phantasm? How do you keep an archmage from dying? How does invisibility work anyway? Does it roll against critters perception or something? How much is needed? If co, it feels as if invisibility would be either IWIN or USELESS depending on the critters skill. How do y...

Thanks!
This may need better documenting for newbs like me.

Looking forward to this great game appearing for release.
