ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

Equipped the artifact "Ulolar the steel Ring" as an archmage. Instead of giving me a 3% increase in crit damage, it seems that i do 3x the crit damage instead. For example, my crit spell damage was around 450 without the ring. It became to 1300+ with the ring. Not sure whether this is meant to work this way.

On it's description it writes
+3% cric damage modifier.
+2 spellpower +1 spell cric
+4 will +3 magic

Which version of ToME are you playing? This sounds like a bug that has been fixed, but if it still occurs in beta17 it will need a closer look.

Playing beta 17.

I just tested it it seems to work.

What's on line 608 of game/modules/tome/class/interface/Combat.lua ?

--- Gets mindpower
(Line 608) function _M:combatMindpower(mod)
mod = mod or 1
local add = 0
return (self.combat_mindpower + add + self:getWil() * 0.7 + self:getCun() * 0.4) * mod
end

Then you are most certainly not playing b17
Are you sure ?

Hrm, i upgraded from beta 15 by unzipping all the files from beta 17 into the folder. Will try again deleting the entire folder, unzipping and let u know.

Ah yes always delete the previous version first.
Not only can it do weird things but it will also make the game think your version is invalid and refuse profile access

Ok realized that was something wrong with the unzipping. The files didn't get overwritten even thought i hit copy and replace.
Can't test this out now since beta 17 can't load my old save.
Thanks darkgod!
