ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

Although I haven't won with a Yeek yet, I had good luck with a Yeek Bulwark. Having a good shield helps a lot! I like playing weird combinations. My Yeek Berserker did fairly well, but he still didn't win. ;) Yeek archmage seems like a solid combination. I don't recall playing a Yeek wyrmic. As some...

TOME is not as easy as you think. I'm not sure which class/race combo you're currently playing, but some are much easier/tougher than others. IMHO, archmage is one of the easiest (or any class with a shield). So maybe this is a reason it's so easy. Like one of the other posters said... Win a game fi...

I've shot many monsters and still nothing. Maybe it's bugged?

Anyone use this ammo besides me?

I'm using Hornet Stingers. The text says +45 crippling poison, yet I never see poison damage or "crippling" when I hit a monster. Even after I hit a monster, I click on the monster and check his stats... no poison is active. I would think something should indicate poison or damage. Can som...

Playing a Shalore Bloodmage and my VIM is so low it's difficult to use my "magic". One spell can take 50% of my VIM. I have to work hard to keep my VIM above 0. I understand that you regain VIM by killing things or by equiping items, but I'm talking about increasing my base VIM stat. Can I...

Okay... Two dumb questions. I'm playing paradox Mage. Level 32 or 33. Is it worth putting 2 points in Armor training to get the shield skill? I've already spent one, so it's only one more. I could use the extra armor/defense and resistances. Can I use a short staff and a shield? Is that even possible?

I found the answer myself. The answer is "NO", because I now have telepathy for both Undead and Humanoid. If they were the same, there wouldn't be two different classes. I had two swords that did +13% and +18%, which I was using simultaneously. I thought +31% damage against Dreadfell undea...

Are Undead considered Humanoid?

I consider them humanoid, but does the game?

So, I'll answer my own question.

She doesn't come with you. She is not reset. Unless you're god-like, you will not survive.

Moral of the story:
Do not use AOE's or in anyway piss off Aeryn!

Thanks Davion... pity I didn't see your post before I went! DOH!

I made High Sun Paladin Aeryn mad before going up steps for final battle.... Now what? As a Sun Paladin I had some shield that was triggered (AOE) and now she's hostile. UGH! I really need that girl to help (meat shield..hehe). So.... will she reset if I go up or am I screwed?? Or is there something...

You're exactly right!! Whew, thanks man.

So... here's the next dumb question. How do I use the rock, in rings and amulets? What about armor?

Really appreciate your help, BTW.

My base healing is now only 50%. I took off all my gear and cancelled all my spells. I'm still at only 50% healing. I put all my gear on and now I'm at 85% healing and that's because I'm using the "Tree of Life" (i.e. +25% healing). I'm a dwarf, Sun Paladin level 41. My regeneration is 9.7...

Thanks guys!

My Doomed guy is dead

but his replacement is still kickin'

First time playing Doomed class. I have "Gesture of Pain" and I'm sustaining it. The comment says something like "use this in place of your normal attack". When I'm sustaining Gesture of Pain, am I using it in place of my normal attack? If not, how do I use it? Next question: I'm...

First time playing a Brawler, so I'm looking for advice not giving it... well at least on Brawlers. ;) I hit Arena at 8th level then on to Diakara (after doing some of the wimpy dungeons). Typically I hit Diakara first, Maze second, Trollmire 3rd and Worm Queen last. I typically do this order becaus...
