ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

I installed tome with package install, updated yesterday, and when run as a regular user, it hangs after "Running lua loader code...". When run as root, it fails completely and exits earlier, at "Error initializing SDL video: No available video device". Killing the hanging versio...

Some of my memorable fights include Sun Paladin against unique RADIANT horror. My god that was terrible. I had no damage dealing aside from assaults, which I kept trying to get counterstrikes for, and kept failing. My healing was perfect, Providence prevented anything nasty from happening, Barrier w...

A new category to replace the one lost for starslinger, some kind of low cooldown increased damage thing to mimic steady shot would be useful. The moon paladin could really do with either more survival power (0 lifemod is kinda harsh) or with more mobility, shielding, misdirection, stealthish stuff ...

Perhaps the lunar paladin should get some kind of stamina using talents? Currently, they have two talents that reference stamina at all, and they're both sustains. The lack of the other dual weapon tree is necessary because flurry is so damn powerful, but maybe some form of that, perhaps with an att...

Alchemist Golem refuses to Molten Skin while I am in range, despite it not hurting me by definition from text about that ability. This is annoying, as with it he has 100% fire resistance, and Gwai's burninator on a burninating alchemist is hilarious. Any suggestions for quick fix to golem behavior a...

Adressing the topic of the discussion, I'd like to note that my only winner so far is a Sun Paladin (I don't play online and didn't bother to learn how uploading saves works). Sun Paladins essentially have just enough magic to make things work (healing light, retribution, second life, providence) an...

Since my ISP doesn't let me play online, he's strictly offline, and unregistered at that. He's a cornac, probably going to try lichdom at some point.

My necromancer got stone alchemy at clvl 5 or so, and I spent my cat point on that. If I want to have five runes then I'm limited to two more categories. That should be enough. I'm thinking advanced minions and shades. I just took advanced minions, mostly for the awesome minions later on and bone gi...

A hilarious prodigy combo is the unending block *combined* with the absorb any damage. This allows you to, for two turns, reduce incoming damage by your block level. It means not taking irresistible sun, which is a great way to compensate for mobility loss, but still. Most useful if you have a way t...
