Thats... Extremely specific and out of the way...

I wonder how many people will unlock this without being spoiled?
I guess, a lot, if Solipsists and Sun Paladins can do it with their talents (they can, can't they?)

Re: Any plan to rework the mindslayer?

For me, one of the biggest problems with Mindslayer is the fact that their shields are boring. The winning strategy is generally to spike all your shields. This not only means six keypresses at the start of every battle, but also means that 20 class points are locked up in a boring, no-brainer defe...

Re: Any plan to rework the mindslayer?

How about giving Mindslayer a Dream Forge tree? It seems to fit the class. Forge Shield should also play well with shield talents.

Re: Necro cleanup/re-reshuffle

Combining Aura Mastery and Dark Empathy just makes a super summoning buff talent that is a must have. How is that an improvement? You make it sound as if must have talents are bad :D Who would possibly refuse to have ways of preventing resource shortage and friendly fire (especially, if source of t...

Re: [1.1.5] Indiscernible Anatomy increases "Crit. Shrug Off

Ok both of use were wrong is something :) Unless DarkGod messed with it again recently, this is how it works: x% "Crit. Shrug Off" aka ignore_direct_crits aka x% chance to ignore ALL additional damage, caused by crit. multiplier (from baseline 50% and more). Critical still happens. Normal ...

Re: [1.1.5] Indiscernible Anatomy increases "Crit. Shrug Off

The name "Crit. Shrug Off" is misleading. That's all. Anyway in current state it makes Oozemancers (player and bosses) immune to critical hits. No. They still can be targets of critical hits. Corona and all other on-crit procs will happen. They just don't receive additional damage unless y...

They say "chance will increase with talent level", but this doesn't happen.

Corruptors and Reavers are good at dealing damage, but as soon as you run out of Vim (which can actually happen, if you are underleveled or up against some Fungal Solipsist Farportal boss with Bone Shield ...

Re: [1.1.5] Indiscernible Anatomy increases "Crit. Shrug Off

Description for Indiscernible Anatomy: All direct critical hits (physical, mental, spells) against you have a %d%% lower Critical multiplier (but always do at least normal damage). but actual effect increases "Crit. Shrug Off" (ignore_direct_crits) which makes this talent really overpower...

Re: Mindslayer changes

I am a bit late to party, but here are my few cents. There is really no need to remove tier-scaling, just make it inherent class ability and apply to anything in mindslot. Make gems more worthy: change damage type of auras to dazing lighting (tier-scaling chance of daze), cleansing flames (tier- and...

Re: Necro cleanup/re-reshuffle

Necromancers have a skill point shortage? This is genuinely news to me. They only have seven Class categories, two of which start locked. For a frame of reference, Archer, one of the most linear classes in the game, has...eleven. Doomed, the lowest class options class in the game right now, has... ...

Re: Necro cleanup/re-reshuffle

Sacrifice is appropriately powerful as it is. Needs a bit of wisdom to understand it's worthiness, but it is good. It's only huge downside is being impossible to perform again in the middle of fight; otherwise vault would be filled with proud Linaniil necro killers. The main problem Necromancers cur...

Re: [1.1.5] Through the crowd bad side effect

ToME engine uses damage types ("dreamforge", "blinding acid" etc.) for many AoE and single-target effects, healing included. Btw, Necromancer's Dark Empathy (and, I imagine, Through The Crowd as well) doesn't let your ghouls' Retch heal you for exactly same reason, albeit that on...
