ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

Hey guys,

I was wondering what order you usually take dungeons in, (this of course may vary depending on class and such but..)

At the moment, after I clear some of the early dungeons...i'm not really sure where to progress to.

For me, it's a pretty fixed order: Trollshaws, Old Forest, Kor'Pul, kill the air elementals in Derth, open Angolwen (unless I'm going for antimagic), Maze, Sandworm Lair (if I have a vision rune; otherwise, farm Carn Dum a bit), Carn Dum, Urkis.

Things like the antimagic fight, the Ruined Dungeon, the thieves' hideout, and the Elven Ruins get done or not depending on my mood and level. I skip the cult because it's a death trap, and the Spellblaze because it's bugged to hell and back (literally -- the Demon Plane spell completely breaks the game).

My list is very similar to greycat's except I usually complete Kor'Pul before the Old Forest. I sometimes skip the SWL completely on non-archmage characters depending on how many characters I have lost to sloppy play in there recently.

I've typically been knocking down trollshaws, skip to Old forest, depending on what class or how my chars doing i will either do kor'pul or the maze (i find kor'pul to be devestating to my low hp chars so I try to hold it off till later). Then I try to skip the SWL but never know what to do next so end up dying in it.


Annnndd just died in the maze.

My progression in the west is usually trollshaws, kor'pul, forest, maze, sandworm, daikara, tol falas. I'll swap the forest and maze if I feel the need to beef up a character before handling the nests in the forest. The extra quests I may or may not take, though if I do the merchant I try to get it as early as possible to take advantage of the shop.
