ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

Can yo believe this? My first farportal, lvl 22 character.

I have no teleport and no wanderer's rest

I'm in BIG trouble.....

I survived about 6 turns.

And it was roguelike

Silly, you should have a teleport.

i know, i know, i know. and i always do.

just got lazy.

and with my tough dumb ai addon, these things smashed me.

Or if no teleport, it's a grave mistake then to not have a movement infusion (if found none, buying one from a shop is a must) before entering high risk dungeons like the farportals.

In your screenshot, a movement infusion would have saved your character as the exit is close enough so you would have not been hit.

My condolences, but that pic is hilarious, and I'm surprised you survived six turns.

I love the little Dream Seed at the bottom.

Yes, me too. I used Eden's Guile to run as far away as I could, but to no avail. The devourers can of course jump around you. I'm not even sure a movement infusion would have saved me.

IIRC they only jump when Frenzied, and that's only possible after you're either bleeding or wounded.

Likewise. I'd bet those six turns came from the golem smartly taunting the monsters in Horrorspeak: "Hey, big mouth, you'll never figure out what those light bulbs said about your momma..."

I never started doing far portals before clvl 30+. Perhaps some char-combos need far portal to gain XP ever earlier?

No one really needs the portal. It is a form of farming, so dg might nerf it one day.

It already has been majorly nerfed.

I used to get myself up to level 32 before trying to rescue Melinda.

Hah! I got myself up to 35 once. Not really to save Melinda, but to "seed" the crypt as high as I could. Just out of pure curiosity.
