ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

https://te4.org/characters/254382/tome/6534b33c-811a-4ed0-800c-cb93aa73e42d I had stormshield up, around 80% health, and was fighting a unique orc pyromancer and a rare orc necromancer in HP. There was no indication anything was remotely dangerous. I cast Blast. Instantly, shadow decoy triggered bec...

I couldn't beat the Grand Corruptor - too much damage per turn, too many unmanageable debuffs. So I took the Adept prodigy and am very satisfied with it. Everything is just better across the board, and I only need 3 points in a talent to get the level 5 bonuses from it. I went with Advanced Shadowma...

Hide behind creeping dark, use blast and willful strike them to knock them back, and if it's really serious use unseen force. I've ...

Ah, thank you, yes it is fixed in 1.7.3.

So I have reached the final boss fight with my aether thaumaturge archmage. The last time I managed this was on normal difficulty and I died. Now I'm here on insane. Hopefully this character build is more able to survive. I want to make sure that I play this right. (Originally this was an asking-for...

Well, if the comment doesn't match the code, it doesn't mean the comment is right. Perhaps the comment wasn't written with consideration of Case 4.

The problem with simply making disruption shield always turn off when below 50% mana, is autocast. If you have disruption shield on autocast, and depleted your mana, and rest, then what will happen is it repeatedly casts disruption shield only to deactivate it the next turn until your mana is back. ...

I've played a bunch of archmages and never until now did I find out how disruption shield actually works. I may have died to not understanding this before. To be clear, let's break it into cases. >50% MP, disruption shield still has shield power. In this case it will absorb damage without costing an...

Aaaand the very first thing I did with my imported save was cast fireflash on myself and die, because fireflash damages you (as well as enemies) in 1.6.6 but didn't in 1.6.0.

I have been playing 1.6.0 on the ubuntu snap. I want to upgrade to 1.6.6, downloaded from the website. It runs fine, but does not have my saves or settings. I think I have done it, so here is a guide. First I located the saves and settings for the snap. They are in ~/snap/talesofmajeyal/43/.t-engine...
