Let me know if any thing is busted! I'm glad to fix it!

Looking into game log usually helps a lot (you can see a little of it on character page you linked):

--Sharon The Peacebringer the level 22 ogre reaver was darkened to death by Faanfer the giant on >>>level 1 of Ambush!<<<.
If Ambush means you're attacked by patrol on world map - you should generally avoid those - they can sometimes get very hard as you'll be fightning multiple rare+ enemies.

--Sharon The Peacebringer killed Fagaga the human!
--Something hits Sharon The Peacebringer for (42 absorbed), 0 cold (0 total damage).
--Something hits Sharon The Peacebringer for (29 absorbed), 0 cold (0 total damage).
--Faanfer the giant hits Sharon The Peacebringer for (29 absorbed), 0 cold, (89 absorbed), 29 cold (29 total damage).
--Faanfer the giant hits Sharon The Peacebringer for 36 cold, 113 darkness (149 total damage).
The last visible message of your action in the log was you killing one of the rares. Then you're attacked 4 times before you got killed, by something invisible and anothere rare+ enemy. My guess is that you're slowed. Ideally, you'd like to fight dangerous enemies 1 by 1 whenever possible.

You should always have some cleansing inscriptions to remove detrimental status effects.
You had Curse of death on you which negates all healing you recieve. If you were using heals during this time you're wasting turns.
I suggest maxing Ruin pretty early - it's quite nice sustain. Bone Shield is also pretty good defensive sustain.

This breaks Attune Mindstar for me; when activated, it throws up an error and doesn't go on cooldown or swap mindstar damage types

Edit: I found and deleted the "little hack so Attune Mindstar stops screaming" at superload/mod/class/interface/Combat.lua, and everything seems to work fine on Gemblade and with Attune Mindstar. I don't know jack about LUA so it probably breaks something somewhere, but I dunno it's whatever

Have you checked the ToME forum yet? There might be some tips/hints/clues/whatnots you could use to make your character stronger and/or survive longer. You don't even need to create a forum account just to read all the threads there. :)

You can find the link to the forum at the menu on the left or the top of this page.

I'm getting a 502 error when trying to access it

Was going to suggest adding Duelist but saw it got removed in changelog, why not have duelist as an option for dual-wield build tho? I feel the class needs a little more in way of defense. Also, would be nice to make Lightspeed Draw a core mechanic of the class, by lowering the stamina increse per use to match Tumble (and have similar or lower scaling), or maybe have it use a charge system, and making it give a shield and/or defense on use (maybe stacking up to a point? or not...). I just feel like the class needs more defensive options, maybe a whole tree of them (or bring back duelist).
Either way the experience so far was fun, reminded me a lot of playing Sil which had skills that let you attack by moving too. Nice concept!

Also, some other things I noticed upon playing further:
- Lightspeed Draw can be used while asleep
- Swordsmanship doesnt seem to give the mastery bonuses for daggers at all

Still quite strong . I had some difficulties at mid-levels, but both low and very high levels it's very solid. Agree with the guy above about difficulties in getting close - none of the class abilities allow neither long jumps nor long pulls. Almost took Giant Leap prodigy just for this.%)) With no ranged attack longer than 5, it seems like you need to either use some charms (with no Surviival), pick up some guns (withh no mastery), or buy a Staff tree (which partially duplicates what yyou already have). At very high levels you can survive trying jump-then-pull combo or just activate Rocket Boots and run on enemy while eating his fire, though. Still bothersome, however. The Fire-n-Shadow tree became quite strong, though I still didn't figure up just how it works from descripitions..%( Including: the 3rd talent allows you to damage all enemies in range 10 who are under your Shadow Blaze - but you don't have ways to apply the latter at long ranges. Is it just for rare cases when you were knocked away, etc.? Mechanized Combat is quite strong, but it's 4th talent was functionally useless to me: taking a turn to activate it just for 4 rounds? Weak enemies weren't worth it as they were just killed in a couple of attacks anyway, while against strong ones I almost never had a luxury to spend a round on this instead of attacking, healing or running away.. Also, is it planned for the class to just use unarmed combat after getting this mastery to fight against fire-immune enemies? I cursed all that is holy when I fought the first Luminous Horror I met in some vault...%)) Fortunately, after getting Fire-n-Shadow for darkness damage PLUS taking a short staff as main had and a good saw (without mastery) as off-haand, I was able to kill it (and even a Blazing Horror much later) - but it was still quite a chore. Didn't try Gems tree this time, though it seems to be a good choice for debuffs and fire penetration. Liked how Shadows work now, though - but descriptions could probably be clearer... This was Insane/Adventure, by the way, with 2 deaths at mid-levels.

Howdy, first off - huge thanks for resuscitating this great mod.

As for the issue:
After unlocking the Blighted Hydra start option I've noticed that it does not actually appear in the customization section, unlike other avatar classes.

Digging through the code I noticed the following:

   unlock="neka_blighted_hydra = true"

   unlock="neka_blighted_drake"
   unlock="neka_blighted_ritch"

Not entirely sure if that is the cause of the issue as manually changing the code myself removed the addon from my games list.
Sadly, being not mod savvy enough to troubleshoot this further, that is all I can provide.

Hope this helps. Cheers!

Not exactly a solution (sorry), but I think you'd have a better chance of finding someone to help you if you post this in the 'Bugs' forum board instead of here.

Hi DG and all who support this wonderful game. I have encounterd a bug that has stopped me progressing the main game. Golbug has not dropped the orb of many ways when killed. After reserching this I undersand that my actions caused this to heppen. The character is a Sun Paladin, and before entering the Fens I first visitted the Unremarkale cave. I beleve this makes the game register that is already has generated the orb of many ways, and then will not drop one when Golbug is killed. Is there any hope for me, or should I pray hader to the glory of the Dark God?

Thee start is VERY boring - I just walk annd stomp everything. At Insane, for Allfathers sake....%((

good for korean
