I haev to rewrite the while display stack to play nice with modern OpenGL so .. no ;) But I'd still like to do it! (and I do work on it now and then on a separate branch)

I did try glshim IIRC but it wasnt perfect.
And the gfx stack do need an update anyway, so if I do it, I should do it well instead of hackishlingly ;)

Any news about ETA? :)

replaying to myself
t5 shields is much better, they have less block value, but since ability itself is lvl5 you are able to spam it faster. now add here temporal shield and eternity's counter and you will get three raw damage reducers.
easily killed overpowered wyrms with such build.

orkz iz so small. i fink itz not fair.

Icebound Fortitude reduces all damage, not just physical. What it does is give you the damage reduction for 3 turns after you use Block (the ability granted by your shield). The Rime bit means it will only work if Rime is sustained though.

And not really an issue, think it works like that for pets in regular game. Your Squire should teleport back if he gets more than 10 tiles away or so, so it's not too exploitable.

Yes, Dusk Shield's tooltip is throwing an error at the moment as it's referring to your shield, rather than the squire's. Rather than changing it in the getMaxAbsorb code, I'd reword the tooltip like so:

    info = function(self, t)
        local block = t.getAbsorb(self, t)
        local chance = t.getChance(self,t)
        local damage = t.getDamage(self, t)
        return ([[Your block ability now grants your summoner a shield absorbing %d%% of your block value, and each time you take damage from an adjacent enemy, there is a %d%% chance to retaliate with a melee attack for %d%% weapon damage as darkness. You get one chance to deal this damage to a particular target each turn.]]):
        format(block*100, chance, damage * 100)
    end

    getAbsorb = function(self, t) 
        return  (70 + math.ceil(self:combatTalentScale(t, 10, 30)))/100
    end,

As for Necrotic Aura, have you disabled all the options for particles and shaders etc? If so it's probably coded to always display unfortunately, would need to add an entry in talents.lua and overwrite the bit that gives the particle effect.

I might take a look at doing that tomorrow as well as fixing the tooltip for Dusk Shield.

what GetMaxAbsorb should return if hasShield() is false/null? zero?

[code]

        getMaxAbsorb = function(self, t) 
                local shield = self:hasShield()
                if not shield return 0
                return  shield.special_combat.block * (200 + math.ceil(self:combatTalentScale(t, 80, 150)))/100
        end,

also small question :) about necrotic aura, i have pretty slow notebook and aura animation probably cost alot
is there easy way to disable it or i have to copy spell from original game and edit it?

Since it doesn't seem like Succor is being updated (Regalion hasn't logged on for a year and a half), I've made two separate addons that have the same combined goal as Succor, in case you want only one of the features.

Logical Alchemists
Select your Escorts (I added an option to pick a random escort too)

Also published on Steam.

I'd appreciate it if you could try them out and let me know if there's any problems (so far I've tested in development mode and haven't encountered any)

NEED. EXPANSION. NOW. PLEASE. GIVE. ME. DLC. OR. AT. LEAST. RELEASE. DATE!!!!!!

I set it up so it doesn't transmo T5/unique gems, but it still tried to transmogrify the unique gem(T5) "Goedalath Rock: Demonic".
