Still no way to list egos and hand-pick them to apply.

Guess I won't be playing 1.3

Volcano throws this error. Only happened when I hit a mob with it that was standing on an upstair case.

Another one, I'm sure this is old.

Mindslayer rares don't get a weapon in their psi slot.

How do you inspect monster's inventory? Have I missed something obvious?

It's for debugging. I was in debug mode when I noticed it.

Fixed that and (hopefully) the volcano bug, too.

Contingency probably shouldn't work with racial talents. It's possible to set it up so that you use timeless twice in a row before combat to get stuff like 16 turns of haste with 14 cooldown, 18 turns of heroism with 15 cooldown, 14 turns of regen, etc. Alternatively, just nerf timeless, because no other talent seems to break the game this much.

You should also consider on whether you want it to able to trigger prodigies as a general rule. For the time being it's only revisionist history and temporal form that qualify, and while neither would really be a problem right now, being able to trigger a prodigy twice in a row seems wrong. Also, every time a prodigy is designed, contingency is something that the designer will have to pay attention to.

But doesn't contigency not work with fixed cooldown talents already, which includes Timeless?

Contingency does not mention that it doesn't work with fixed cd talents. It certainly works with both timeless and temporal reprieve. Tested in beta7 and git.

Still present in b7, but also 1.2.5. Skeleton's Reassemble resurrection bypasses final battle portal sacrifice and revives anyway. That res is automatic on first death after 5/5 is reached, not after last life spent like blood of life (and thus also isn't controlled by a death dialog choice) and manages to bypass the sacrifice intent to be permanent.

I was pretty sure I had read something of the kind. Found it : http://forums.te4.org/viewtopic.php?p=193904#p193904

In 1.3 fixed cooldowns will be displayed. Spells with fixed cooldowns can't have their cooldowns reduced. Temporal Reprieve has a fixed cooldown. Contingency doesn't work on talents with fixed cooldowns.

But maybe something changed about that later on.

[edge2054]

Yup, Contingency was changed. Not working with Temporal Reprieve and Invigorate was silly as these are two of the few core class skills that Contingency can work with.

Timeless is... well... I love Timeless conceptually and have from the start. But it's not a balanced talent and it tends to break a lot of other things. For my sanity I'm just pretending like it doesn't exist. You can choose to play a more balanced race
