Infinite Farportal

[StarKeep]

Merchant costs adjusted to 100/375/750/1650/3250.

Beta Release of Rerolls.
-You can spend 10% of the initial cost, to reroll your item if you do not like it.
-This can be done as many times as possible, but you will only ever end up with one item.

I gave a couple of the Merchant companion shades a try.

- Sun Paladin Shade: awesome, but his Ally Sun tree needs icons. Also, I skipped the Guardian tree because it didn't look like those abilities were party-friendly (e.g. Retribution).

- Cursed Warrior Shade: constantly ran out of Hate, not very effective if I built him to use Hate abilities. Initially lacks armor in spite of proficiency. Maybe give him some illegal Hate regen?

Found a potential bug: when my main character died to a boss, player control switched over to my companion shade, and I finished off the boss that way... but there was no way off the level with the shade, and no shade self-destruct button (like the one a Golem has for exactly this situation).

Another potential bug: set my Sun Paladin Shade to auto-use Bathe in Light, walked around town, no problem. Switched control to the Shade and Bathe in Light triggered, which damaged my Skeleton... BIG PROBLEM! Suddenly every guard in town turned hostile (maybe because the player-controlled character damaged a friendly NPC, which was what my actual main character was at the time?). We killed all the guards and continued shopping, but it was an unwelcome surprise. I bet this is not your fault, though it'd be nice if the town guards were able to ignore friendly damage among party members.

Not sure if bug: the Shades correctly dropped all the gear I gave them on death, but they did NOT drop any Infusions or Runes. It'd be nice if I could use the Rune of Reflection on one and have at least a chance of getting it back... or maybe have them work a bit like Golems, and be re-born with whatever Inscriptions you put on the last one?

[StarKeep]

I'm afraid that they won't drop infusions/runs/whatever because they no longer have it to drop.

Making them born again with the same stuff would be somewhat difficult, as the way it currently works is to summon a brand new one, that levels up to your level. I'm quite hesitant at making his level level with you actively.

Will fix the Sun Paladin icons, I guess I broke those during one patch.
I never changed the Guardian tree because I was unsure if it did hit allies. After seeing that it did, I'll edit that.
Illegal hate regen could somewhat work I do suppose. Wouldn't be that much though, since he already has access to some extremely powerful talents.
I'm not sure why he will randomly not spawn with armor. I had though I fixed that by giving him a higher base strength... I guess not.

I'll see if I can add an ability to kill you as a Shade.

Illegal hate regen could somewhat work I do suppose. Wouldn't be that much though, since he already has access to some extremely powerful talents.

The thing about Hate is that it's a whole separate playstyle, but no matter which playstyle I'm in, it's going to screw him.

1: if I'm using resources which regenerate while resting, I'm going to sleep away his Hate.

2: if I'm using Hate, I'm not going to give him any kills because I need them myself.

The only playstyle which suits him would be where the player can end fights at full resources, but those are frankly overpowered builds, and one ought not design around them.

Does the Ally Antimagic tree NOT silence allies? I was scared to put a point in it...

[StarKeep]

If it has Ally- before the tree, none of the talents will affect allies, except for effects left on the ground, which is why I had to mass rework the fire trees.

I haven't tested Searing Light yet, so that may also still hit allies.

Infinite Farportal V 5.0 - The Doozy Update
http://te4.org/games/addons/tome/infinite-farportal
---
Added in the Training Dummy Room, fully functioning from the get go.
-
You can now ask the Merchant to restock ALL the shops, for 33% of your current gold.
-
Shops have been updated with a chance to get better egos on them.
-
The Farportal will reward players who save up, granting +10% to your current gold after each farportal clear.
-
The Farportal will now grant passive experience after each farportal clear. This starts fairly large, but tampers out over time.
This was done to help get weaker classes into the late game faster.
-
You can now ask the Merchant to break one of the forbidden seals of the fortress, summoning Randbosses, costing 50% of your current gold. (You require at least 1000 gold to do this.)
You can pick between 1 and 10.
This is purely for people who think the game is too easy.
Old pathways have been added all around the fort, and the anti-teleport field has been lifted.
(Note: The higher values are somewhat unstable, and I'm unsure of a way to change that fact. You may lose your gold with 6+ Bosses at once. Be warned.)
-
Added the ability to learn Staff Combat from the Field Control trainer, due to Arcanum overtaking the normal training chat file.

Also touched up a bit on the main post.

Slight problem:
After finishing a farportal (killing randboss, going back through portal), I get the following error:

Lua Error: /engine/LogDisplay.lua:122: Bad argument

Could this be related to the bonus exp each trip (as I get the bonus gold without issue)?

Edit: Upon paying attention, I am getting the bonus exp in addition to the gold
Edit2:
I'm currently using the following addons:
DoctorNull's Class Pack
Draconians (Aura of the Dawn)
Lost City of Vulcus
I500 2.1
New Gems
Infinite Farportal

[Doctornull]

Wanna test.

No 1.1.3 on OS/X yet.

(Dark)goddamnit.

[StarKeep]

Orangeflame, that's due to me making the log display incorrectly. It will not affect the game in any way, and I'll put up a quick fix.

Sorry Null. >: I don't think this would work if I ported it down to .6 due to the Training Room being more recent.

[Doctornull]

Cosmetic Bug in latest (via Wine on OS/X): when I learn Survival from the dagger merchant, the lot output says he taught me Field Control. (I did learn Survival so the bug is purely the log message.)

[dis astranagant]

It would be real nice if you could get ammo from the artifact shop. Launchers are cool and all but they don't crank your damage output like ammo.

[Doctornull]

I'm subscribed to the IF Steam updates, and this is the message I got last night when playing through IF with some test builds.

I think this is the associated log message:
