Minimap and side dungeons

I've replicated this at least twice in the Old Forest... if you go to a mini-dungeon (cave, undead grave trap, etc.) the minimap will still be scaled to the small dungeon size when you return, resulting in most of the minimap being unviewable. This is fixed when you leave the level.

Graves in the Golem Graveyard

Apparently, graves can spawn in the Golem Graveyard, but digging them up yields nothing, every time.

Necromancer survivability

Early game, I don't really have a problem, between Blurred Mortality, at least one soul-based heal (and possibly an escort-based heal), and shielding runes I'm pretty good. Late game (Orc prides, etc.) though, I just get destroyed, even with 5/5 Lichform and really great inscriptions (At level 35, a...

Re: Your worst classes

For me... probably Shadowblade or Mindslayer. I love the latter, mind you, but he has terrible HP, and you can't keep all the shields up. So sooner or later, something is going to crit you in the face with a damage type you're not protected from... Shadowblade just... doesn't seem to add enough DPS ...

Re: Level 38 Patchwork Troll hanging out with Bill.

Additional issue... since I made this post, I've apparently been cursed with irony, because that stupid Patchwork Troll seems to spawn something like 50% of my characters now.

Seriously, I'm level 5 and he has 1800+ hp.

Re: What are the benefits of "going mindstar"?

Well, most mindstars have exceptional armor penetration, so there's that... but mainly, it's about not having to spread your stat points as thin across multiple categories.

Is Atamathon supposed to have special respawn rules?

The only options I get when killed by him are to rest a while, respawn (next to him) or die forever. This is instead of the usual "revive me some place else instead."

Strangely enough, exiting via the original entrance to the overworld still works...

Re: [1.3.1] Temple of Creation friendly fire

Huh... it's been several patches since I've done this fight, so I don't recall what his adds were. I thought you were supposed to be able to talk to Slasul, and indeed he has the talk icon. So there's mobs from the other faction (water dragons) there? In that case, I guess the battle is supposed to ...

[1.3.1] Temple of Creation friendly fire

So... helping out our friend Unpronounceable the Wise, I went to go kill the Naga boss in his underwater temple. The battle was a bit anticlimatic, since he and his minions could be "seen" (Not actually seen, just the numbers from damage popping up off the bottom of the screen) killing eac...

Intentional AI behavior?

It appears for some abilities (Vimsense, presumably telepathy) the enemy gains sight to you as well. In some areas with monsters with AoE abilities, this can result in the monsters killing each other dramatically before you ever come into normal sight of them.

Any way to tell instakills from combat logs?

So... I managed to die will at 471 life after only taking... 147 damage. At least, that's all the combat log shows. The death message was: "XXX the 20th level mindslayer was frozen and shattered into a million tiny pieces on XXX" So... presumably, I died from one of those "Anything ta...

Level 38 Patchwork Troll hanging out with Bill.

So... I go to see Bill the Troll with a level 6 Ogre Reaver and... one of his adds is a level 38 patchwork troll. Needless to say, things go downhill fast.

Should this even be an option? I'm not sure how even an outlying RNG justifies that as an appropriate minion.

1.3.1 Corpathus Horrors and Escorts

If you spawn a friendly horror from Corpathus, it may block escort pathing and won't allow the quest to complete normally. As you can't control the slime and it's friendly, it's difficult to get rid of.

I eventually got the escort to complete by tunneling around the slime.
