ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

Total thuggery didn't seem that worth it considering I'm really short on general points and don't do any physical damage. Yeah, I maxed CON to improve the effect of my two prodigies. I've found it really helpful for tanking stuff in insane. I agree that step up is amazing. It would probably be amazi...

I usually play AM, so it's not a problem.

Forgot to link my char:

Hey all! So this is my furthest Insane run I've ever done (first time I've made it past Tier 2 dungeons). My questions i what would be suggested for my last category point? I feel like my defenses are quite strong and consist of: -Mindstar Leaves Tide -High regen from fungus and heal mod -Fungal Blo...

What is a good strategy for setting the level of instances?

I've only been trying insane for a bit, and it seems that once I hit Tier 2 dungeons (Old forest, Maze, etc.) I find that things gets really hard really fast and then I just die a lot. I like to play rogue and warrior classes.

I agree that turning off momentum is very easy to forget and quite tedious. I usually don't notice I forgot to turn it off until I start resting, at which point my stamina drains to empty, it turns off, and then fills to full again. Working like berserker rage would be a lot nicer and much more mana...

This is my first nightmare win which was very exciting! Character report below: http://te4.org/characters/175207/tome/bc352b54-b5b1-49ca-ba58-4c41b9ccf9db I learned a few things this game: Shalore are amazing. Timeless in particular has so many awesome uses. I primarily used it to extend my buffs. I...

Any takes on this? It seems really strange that shield hits wouldn't trigger flexible combat at all considering the description is: Each time that you make a melee attack you have a 60% chance to execute an additional unarmed strike. Shield hits are considered melee for greater weapon focus, so I ca...

Maybe you could create a build around doing >10% hp damage to yourself to be permanently invis with secrets of the eternals.... hmmmm...

So I was considering taking flexible combat on my bulwark, but I wanted to check if flexible combat can proc on shield hits. I had an arcane blade winner with flexible combat, so I did some testing on the training dummy. Flexible combat will not proc of either shield pummel or shield slam. It can pr...

I guess I'll just have to experiment with it. I've played stealth characters quite a bit and stealth is pretty simple in that you know if you have been detected or not... but invisibility seems a little different. Is there a way to know if the enemy has detected you or not? Because if they have you ...

Any tips on tactical usage of Shalore's Secrets of the Eternals (makes you go invis if you take 10%+ of hp in damage)? The first few times it happened to me I thought it was a debuff but then after looking through the list noticed that it's actually a buff! Should you leave it on? Cancel it? Does it...

That's intense. Very nicely thought out. Adventurers really allow for some crazy synergy and stacking.

Time for me to now continue trying to win nightmare with a normal class

Thanks for the excellent response. That's kind of what I was learning as I play. I have 2 normal adventure wins now and I'm going to try nightmare adventure next!

Congrats on the win! My 2nd win was with an ogre and they are awesome.
