ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

Ok. I just was enjoying playing the archmage more than the alchemist, so I thought that maybe knowing how long it would take before I could go back to her or just pressing on with her and that I'd hit it by 20 anyway.

Am I really going to need more mana for this character? I use bombs every 3 turns. I use the staff attack the other 2 if i'm not moving. I don't think i've seen a half full mana bar.

PS, I did finally beat this sucker.

Radon. You were right, I did start with a shield rune.

Thanks again,

Brian

Finally beat it. Then killed off that character in the shimmering mines(or glittering). Restarted the same character about 5 times now able to beat Abashed Expanse and the character is now level 9. Not sure i'm going to come close to 1M fire damage by level 20 when my guide(i'm a noob) says I should...

I know that this is a bit of an old thread, but how many playthroughs are needed to unlock wildfire? I'm only up to 62k fire damage. I've got a level 15 alchemist spamming fire bombs and a level 9 archmage trying her best to only use fire spells. I'm trying to follow one of the Wildfire guides and I...

Maybe i'm missing the joke. But these two comments are in the section where you build your character talents. Do we just get no talents that level or is there an NPC that I need to find and insult through conversation options?

Thanks,

Brian

I was looking at Mex's Wildfire Archmage guide. What does this mean?

L5: [Insult Shibari]
L30: [Insult Shibari once more for good measure]

Thanks,

Brian

On most runs, I was able to clear all the other creatures best I could so I could fight him alone. Once, the portal put me right next to it, so I was hosed there. Can't get shield because it's level 4. Highest level I think I got was 16% on 3 on one run and ~70% on level 2 on the other five runs. I ...

I just unlocked the Archmage and I have died on 6 characters getting to the final boss of the area. He about 3 hits me if not worse. I can't manage to get him. Can someone help? Fortunately, it's at the beginning of the game, but it is getting frustrating.

Thanks,

Brian

I've recently spent my points on Strength for the gollum because he keeps dying and I found a nice orange plate that seems to give good effects but requires 36 Strength. I'm hoping that this isn't just wasted points. I still have all the feat points except 1. I did spend 1 on eye beam 1(no magic eno...

I have seen effects such as spell save +6 (+2 eff). Does this mean that i'm not getting the entire 6 until later? Like only +2 is currently effective even though when I level up or do something else it'll eventually be +6?

Thanks,

Brian

Zicher, This is my first time playing, so I don't really know what I'm doing yet. I still have 2 "lives" left as I was playing on adventure mode. I did tell the death guy to get me out of there so I haven't gone back, but might if there was something I could acquire at the store or whatnot...

I'll try to sneak up on it and see what I can see. I think it had a name though. This is my first play though so I'm not really sure I understand a lot of things. I know that I have nearly no "good" armor because of my class. I have very minimal protections and saves too. I'll try to post ...
