ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

Two days is definitely a personal record for a win--these guys are really really strong on Normal, where offense is king. For prodigies I took Flexible Combat and Draconic Will, both worked well with the character's style. I invested into the physical damage trees, with 1 value point in Burning Sacrifice and 4 in Cauterize Spirit. 5 points in Share the Pain and 1 point in Voracious Blade will bring your damage up really high very early on, with maxed Destroyer+Timeless rendering all enemies meek pawns ripe for killing, with abduction oneshotting any non-boss in the game. Vim management is also trivial with maxed Draining Assault. I invested into Fearscape early, but with my obscene burst damage I'm not sure it ever mattered. It allowed me to kill Elandar and Linaniil very easily though, which counts for something. Speaking of which, I dealt almost 10,000 damage to Linaniil in one strike. This is a very high damage class.

You... You already... Two days... What...

You sir, are a great deal more talented at this game than I am. Or more obsessed. I'll go with both. But all the same, congratulations for beating the game within this short period of time. I tip my hat to you.

Haha I was procrastinating on studying for an exam. (I took it today and it went fine)

Honestly, considering how complex and deep ToME is, I would not be shocked to find it makes you a more intelligent person. Perhaps not as good as test taker, but stuff like pattern recognitition, innovative solutions, working with low resources, etc.
