Forbidden Cults 1.7.0

Official Expansion!

Not all adventurers seek fortune, not all that defend the world have good deeds in mind.
Lately the number of sightings of horrors have grown tremendously. People wander off the beaten paths only to be found years later, horribly mutated and partly insane, if they are found at all. It is becoming evident something is stirring deep below Maj'Eyal.
That something is you.

Forbidden Cults is a big expansion for Tales of Maj'Eyal to let you explore the horrors that lurk beneath the surface, to delve in long lost knowledge and lore and as usual to die a lot!


Forbidden Cults makes two new classes available to play:

  • Writhing One: Give in to the corrupting forces and turn yourself gradually into an horror, summon horrors to do your bidding, shed your skin and melt your face to assault your foes. With your arm already turned into a tentacle, what creature can stop you?
  • Cultist of Entropy: Using its insanity and control of entropic forces to unravel the normal laws of physic this caster class can turn healing into attacks and call upon the forces of the void to reduce its foes to dust.

Both those classes use a new resource called Insanity that gradually makes you both more chaotic and powerful as it fills up.


Forbidden Cults makes two new races available to play:

  • Drem: A corrupt subrace of dwarves, that somehow managed to keep a shred of sanity to not fully devolve into mindless horrors. They can enter a frenzy and even learn to summon horrors.
  • Krog: Ogres transformed by the very thing that should kill them. Their powerful attacks can stun their foes and they are so strong they can dual wield any one handed weapons.


Forbidden Cults adds many new zones for you to explore and die in:

  • Kroshkkur: An ancient Sher'tul Fortress laying half in ruins that serves as a focal point, and home, for all kinds of creatures seeking lost knowledge.
  • The Maggot: A huge living corrupted worm about to destroy Kroshkkur! Teleport inside and save your sanctuary of horrors!
  • The Godfeaster: Deep undergroud the ground shakes as ... -- redacted by corrupt forces --
  • The Scourge Pits: On the south of the Iron Throne lays a fool pit of ... -- redacted by corrupt forces --
  • Forbidden Tomes: Find special artifact books of ancient lore. But, read at your own peril, for the story they tell may very well suck you in... quite literally.
    Maybe you will even find The One That Writes...
  • Occult Egress: A strange, extremely old, contraption of unknown origin. It seems to require some kind of code sequence to activate. Maybe you will find some during your adventures?
  • The Entropic Void: So you think you are strong? Powerful? Invulnerable? In the end, entropy always wins, as you will learn...


What would an expansion about horrors be without a bunch of new horrors to torment you with? Please give a warm welcome to:

  • Searing Horrors: You liked luminous horrors? You loved radiant horrors? You will absolutely adore their searing big brothers!
  • Nethergates: It sleeps. Maybe it should stay that way.
  • Netherworms: Vampiric worm masses that are bound to tickle your fancy! And tickle hard.
  • Fearful Symmetry: Geometry has never been so lively!
  • Entropic Shards: Take an entropic crystal, shatter it with tentacles. And die.
  • : And more ...


"DarkGod, is that all?" Obviously not! You will also find your usual addition of:

  • Lore: Delve into the dark forgotten secrets of the world, where sanity is a very tenuous idea.
  • Artifacts: Discover new objects of power and use them to further your own goals.
  • New wyrmic tree: Unlock the scourge drake for your wyrmics.
  • Glass Golem: Unlock the glass golem option for your alchemists.
  • Events: Discover new strange contraptions in familiar zones. What could go wrong?
  • Achievements: Because there can never be enough!

Go to Landmark 1.7.0

Adds a new game menu option "Show known Landmarks", which presents a list of landmarks (up/down stairs, golden chests, zone entrances and the like) that you've seen on the current level and allows you to go to them or view them on the map.  You can also set your own landmarks for later reference by right-clicking on the map and choosing "Set landmark".

    Also available as part of the ZOmnibus Addon Pack and ZOmnibus Lite.

    Better Item Description 1.7.2

    This addon makes items description easier to read and determine on a glance it's usefulness
    - sorts all stats by category - DPS/DEF/MISC
    - item's passive power always the same blue color (not a random blue-yellow-pink-green)
    - item's usable power - always yellow
    - all rarity categories are displayed
    - encumbrance value moved to the right under item name
    - "on hit" powers always green
    - "Stats" have an ornage highlight and placed before others because it's most important one
    - Removed many extra-explain details, which any veteran player would not want to read each time
    for example, stat "S.pwr/crit" shorten from "Spellpower on spell critical (stacks up to 3 times)"
    means you do remember that it can stack only 3 times, and is not so super important anyway
    - DLC supported - Orcs/Ashes
    - few bug-fixes along the way

    Most important thing to remember
    - Requirements only shown for those you don't meet. If you want to see all reqs - hold CTRL
    - "Phasing" stat means - "Damage Shield penetration", the name was taken from the source and looks good to me, and short enough
    - The "-" minus sign at the end of stat mean immunity or reduction of some sort, for example "Blind-" = "Blindness immunity",
    - "Max.summ" = Max wilder summons
    - "Summ.HP.reg" = Life regen bonus (wilder-summons)
    - "Def/telep" = Defense after a teleport
    - "Res/telep" = Resist all after a teleport
    - "Dur/telep" = New effects duration reduction after a teleport

    it's not recommended to use this mod if you'r new to the game

    Corner-Only Threat Brackets 1.1.5

    Changes the threat brackets in shockbolt so they're only the upper left corner and don't hide the healthbars.

    Corner-Only Threat Brackets 1.1.5

    Doctornull's Class Pack 1.5.10

    This pack compiles several classes, with an emphasis on hybrid design. Not all classes are complete: the ones which I'm not satisfied with are marked as either INCOMPLETE or "in BETA".

    The classes included in this pack are:
    - The Transcendent Fist is an unarmed Psionic warrior, using a gem in his TK slot to hit with flexible energy types.
    - The Storm Warden is a melee-and-ranged skirmisher with magical mobility and support spells.
    - The Striker is a cunning and covert class, with a focus on delivering shock-and-awe thunderbolts from stealth.
    - The Gravitic Infantry is a melee-focused Chronomancy user (formerly named the Heavy).
    - The Creep is a stalker in the dark, cunning and covert in his hate.
    - The Vector uses disease and debilitation to keep his foes at range while he snipes them to death.
    - The Flenser is a Defiler whose knives debilitate and torture his victims.
    - The Blood Mage is a Vim-based caster with a mild dip into staff-melee combat.
    - ... and more!

    (BETA) Shield Hero is an Adventurer who starts with heavy armor and a shield. Not very exciting unless you were annoyed about not being able to equip your Adventurer's shield right away.
    (BETA) Prototype Hero is an Adventurer who starts with 1.3 mastery in every category. Not very useful for players, but it might be interesting for addon writers to spitball new category combinations.

    (INCOMPLETE) The Flux Marauder is a Paradox thug, stealing time from his enemies.

    x (Removed): The human-only Embers of Gerlyk are fire-using magical martial artists. Removed pending new content / 1.6 features.
    x (Removed): The skeleton-only Fossils are geomantic martial artists. Removed pending new content / 1.6 features.

    While carried:
    Transmogrify all the items in your chest at once (also done automatically when you change level).
    Uses 0 power out of 1000/1000

    This chest is an extension of old Sher'tul places of power. Any items dropped inside are transported to an other place, processed and destroyed to extract energy.
    The byproduct of this effect is the creation of gold, which is useless to process, so it is sent back to you.

    When you possess the chest all items you walk upon will automatically be put inside and transmogrified when you leave the level.
    Simply go to your inventory to move them out of the chest if you wish to keep them.
    Items in the chest will not encumber you.
