I need to balance the things before to advance to beta stage, correct the bugs and so on... In general things to do:

Temporary demons
Damage balance
General balance
Quests specific for the class
Bugs.. bugs... more bugs :P

so i need all the testing we can do!

... but I've been playing around with this a bit lately, and figure at least someone should mention the two major bugs.

The bigger one is that unlearning a talent only unlearns one talent level at a time. This makes pruning down your 'm' menu an exercise in incredible mind numbing tedium that takes a vaguely gratuitous amount of time -- it's actually the major thing making this addon difficult for me to really dig in to, since just letting the magic menu grow leads to terrible performance issues and a great deal of irritating clutter.

The less big, but still fairly large, one is that talents also only get learned one level at a time, which is fairly contradictory to the message log output that suggests you learn the whole thing in one go. Instead, each use of deep scan increments the appropriate talents up by one level. Between that and 100 turn cooldown, harvesting talents can be rather time consuming, even once you pick up a few cooldown resetting talents.

As a third thing, it's not a bug, but something that would be incredibly nice (that, if I'm not mistaken, the glutton addon has tried and failed to do), would be a method to prevent relearning talents once unlearned.

Those bits noted, these guys are pretty fun to play in the "wildly imbalanced" way they roll -- obviously, a lot like the early glutton builds (understandable, considering there's still bits of glutton code in parts of the LUA, ha) before they were considerably reigned in. If someone could get around to fixing those two major issues (and maybe even that one request/suggestion/wish), this would definitely be my go-to power-trip addon.

could you please make a UI thing to help save characters from bad game loads where the UI is operational? it would be accessed from the thing on the right side of the ui where you can save game etc...what it would do is increment the lives left count by one then nuke the character with 100 thousand points of damage with 1000 percent resistance penetration. this should send the character to the afterlife where upon if they return to the mortal plane the game should fix the previous bad load.

I totally understand why some things are authenticated before working and while most* of the time it doesn't affect me I get that it's a big deal for some people. When my internet has gone out similar things have definitely annoyed me. Seems to be a big sticking point for people at GoG as well (understandably I suppose given the general stand of the site). Hopefully eventually a useful solution can be found that still serves some of the original intent.

• if I play during my commute I never have internet, although ToME doesn't easily lend itself to comfortable play on what I use then. If it did I'd frequently be running into this I imagine

i feel you should get a token if you return tarelion's lost staff to it's rightful owner :)

its a randart drop that has the dude's name in it's title. says that he lost it even. so it stands to reason that he's be grateful if you returned it to him. furthermore if the randart does not show up then no toke. so it's down to luck if you get it or not. plus you could keep it if you want to.

I also feel that the academy is not unbalanced. it does not really do that much for you to be honest a few magic based talent trees aren't going to improve your power all that much. in fact; you could give several more tokens without unbalancing the game.

This Add on is not visible in the add on settings in V1.2.5. Probably was something changed, so that many addons are no longer working.

I loved the new font, all became easier to read and the game seems more beautiful.

I'm a tiny bit disappointed this wasn't some chronomancer update after reading the title. Still, progress is progress so it's all good :)

Damn, I kinda hoped it would include wyrmic & temporal warden reworks. Still, love addon auto-update feature

...needs a Wild tree.

Sorry for not seeing this comment sooner, it probably would have helped a lot in the tail end of this thing. For some reason, this very basic thought never occurred to me and it really should have. Of course it's better to use a turn to swap to a full quiver of 10+ arrows than it is to reload 5; I'm really sad that I never thought of that on my own. Thank you, I'll make sure to keep that in mind for future runs.

Does this patch fix the bug where Fiery Grasp wasn't dealing weapon damage?

Edit: looks like it did, thanks!
