ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

I just had a death because the Inner Power shield did not trigger before the damage, as stated in the description. Situation: I spot enemy (after full rest), I trigger instants such as Blinding Speed and Perfect Accuracy, and then use Rush, and die immediately. I have ~1200 HP excluding shield, enem...

As mentioned, one option was indeed to just remove it from main campaign.

It has always frustrating me how critical category such as tinker (injector access, physics / chemistry) is locked behind an unreliable escort in the main campaign. I'd suggest one of the following: Remove tinker escort - at least it's a clear baseline Make each escort only appear once - at least al...

I completely agree - would prefer less escorts, but more certainty, as in the DLC

What myself, I believe many other people, don't like about this "challenge" (to be clear, have done patrols many times on insane, and I'm well aware of how to avoid and beat them): Avoidable while quite hard, so leads to a really dull 'minigame' of moving very carefully on the world map Un...

On character sheets - as I said you might be right they can be cheated, I genuinely have no idea. However, what I was trying to bring up is that streaming can be cheated too, in two ways: Cheating which has been done, can be discovered, but has not as not fully audited by a broad and trustworthy pan...

Disclosure: That was a rather lengthy post, and I haven't read each of the 'class reviews' On the topic of AM: I agree that AM is not the cookie-cutter class it's made out to be for beginners in lower difficulties, as many of it's strengths require patience and good knowledge of the mechanics - tha...

To rephrase this discussion somewhat - does anyone actually think patrols add anything to the game?

Those rules are clearer then.

Silly question, but is there is a list of 'official add-ons'? (probably answering my own question here, but I take it it refers to the official DLCs [EoR, AoU] and possessor class add on?)

Fair enough, interesting comments and a helpful perspective. Overall I'm still in the camp of it's a question of "Do you want to believe or not?", where you're very much in the no camp - and nothing wrong with that. I also agree that just because something is 'madness viable' doesn't mean ...

To be clear - actually I don't think any of the things I mentioned are truly exploits, I think they are just incredibly OP skills, similar to what was used in the Wyrmic run. The argument was more that, either in they are all using exploits, or they are all using OP skills. Also the point was the '...

Actually, to add to my previous post I've put together the below list of what could quite easily be considered exploits for each of the Tier S classes. What I'd like to understand is, why are these 'less of an exploit' than what I used for Wyrmic? Many of these are essentially making you invincible,...

It does sound like a lot of fun! One minor point, isn't light gloves attack speed 125%? Genuinely have no idea, I loaded up my level 20-something Yeek Brawler and copied his attack speed since I couldn't find solid information about it on the wiki or on TomeTips. It's possible, if not probable, tha...

Your list, which indeed is very good, so your call. I'm of course in the camp that (1) it's only using skills doing exactly what they say they are going to do, (2) it's not actually infinite damage, although very high, and not a spell, so 'only' single target, (3) it's on a long CD at 20 turns. That...

A very smart play indeed...! ...And it turns out madness viable. Only downside, which is quite a severe one to be fair and what overall makes me think this is still reasonably okay, although it at first sounds totally OP: the skill is on a 20 turn cooldown, and for Wyrmic remains single target, and ...
