ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

I have to say it certainly changes the game a whole lot as an alchemist in this release!

One thing that keeps on being rather frustrating is the golem/@ AI when in control of the other - it seems they both love using the AoE spells/abilities whilst the other is in range. I was wondering what kept putting me at 50% health when my golem came in to 'help' me.

One other odd thing i've wondered about is how often skill points/stat points are given to the golem to distribute..?
Oh and something that may be a bug, when I first created I could put 2 points into the golem strength skill thing for free - pressed across once to see what it did at rank 2, nothing happened, pressed across again and it put 2 points in there without taking any off my available class points. Bonus. It did freeze up a second or so when trying to put points in, thought it might be taing class points out of the golems' pool, but apparently not as he had points still.

Err so back to the point - the party AI could probably favour not using AoE spells whilst their others are in the line of fire, if at all possible.

*Love* the release, its great fun!

It is very true, and there has been discussion on how to change that on the IRC channel. Don't worry, it is a priority.

Looks like 2 stats per level, and a skill point every 3 levels.

Already reported several times in the Bugs sub-forum, and even though you think you are getting 2 talent points for free you aren't getting the benefit of either.

Hmmm then I think the stat points aren't being given correctly - I didn't get any to distribute until lvl13, and then once again at lvl 16 or so.
