Syllogism posted:I'm surprised no one has talked about the infinite dungeon mode yet, though I guess it's quite dull and poorly balanced currently. The main interesting part about it is that there is no level cap and talents/skills aren't capped to 5, so there are some interesting/broken ones due to the way they scale. 78291 plays the ID quite a bit, you could probably ask him about it.

Fangz posted:If you have a minor burn effect triggering the life drain and then the arcane shield for example, you'd just be stuck with a lovely 3 hp damage shield and doing a heal wouldn't create a brand shiny new 100+ hp shield like it normally would, since you already have a shield of that type up. You'd have to take another hit or wait for it to wear out first. If you are fighting stuff that can hit you for over 100% of your normal HP, then this is *bad*. Oh i see. I had assumed each new shield would add to the others, as thats how the other shields seem to work.

Rascyc posted:Only different shield effects stack. If it's generating 'damage shields' then you can only have one damage shield up, any new ones will just be locked out and won't take effect. Damage shields are basically what you are getting from runes and that heal->shield talent. That's Hurricane (3rd one in the Storm Tree), which is an expensive sustain that will randomly trigger an insane AoE DOT (yeah, AoE DoT, this is as crazy as it sounds like) when you cast Nova or Shock. Accept no substitutes when you wanna wipe out a whole screen of monsters (NOTABLE EXCEPTION: THE ROOM OF DEATH IN VOR ARMORY) in a single turn.

If they don't one-shot you, through your shield, the turn you open the door, you probably have a pretty strong character.

WAMPA_STOMPA posted:I'd rather put them in racials and stuff like harmony or the curse tree (I think that's generic). How do people feel about dropping a cat point in the Harmony tree vs grabbing the Celestial Light tree from an Anorthil rescue quest? I had done the latter in my previous game, and it was pretty worth it, especially as an archmage. Gives you an extra low-cooldown heal, an extra shield (that doesn't count as a damage shield, so it stacks with them, but does take a turn to use), Bathe in Light for healing other escort questees, and, of course, max-level Providence. Even at mastery 0.7, it still lasts 6 turns and heals for about 200 hp total. So, its sorta like getting 3 extra inscription slots for the price of 1! (and 10 generic points)

Well, the first thing you were doing wrong was trying the Halfling Ruins at lvl 10, lol.

blugh, just lost my last archmage in the gushnak pride at lvl 50: http://te4.org/characters/9840/tome...32-0025900d6212 ridiculous way to die, too. didn't die to any of those freaky boss orcs, but to a single lvl 65 armored skeleton in a blood lich vault. there was no reason for me to die; had at least 2 shields waiting, both of my displacement shields, etc. just fat-fingered an extra attack and the dude crit me, I think twice, and welp. I think I was plenty strong enough to go the distance; had crazy AoE dmg, ridiculously tanky, had 2 sources dorokhloe and like 4 or 5 spellbinding boots + 2 staves of warding and 2 staves of channeling, fully stun and confuse immune, high resists and defenses (although these coulda been higher I guess), etc. the game just starts to get really tedious near the end (well, guess its a bit tedious in general, but the late-game is really a slog) and I start hurrying rather than playing. that's very bad considering that spike damage can be absolutely ridiculous later, where a crit can hit me for almost full hp (or beyond) if I don't notice that a shield expires. I guess that's why there aren't any archmage roguelike winners on the server. I think I had like 30 hours sunk in this sucker and I still had 3 prides to go + whatever the hell is after that. I don't think I should try again. -_-;;

Indecisive posted:So after several failed attempts at running a 'storm' mage where I max lightning/chain lightning then the entire storm tree before hitting Dreadfell, I bit the bullet on trying the Meta tree as suggested by everyone ever, and instantly beat the Master and made it to the far east (even beat the ambush my first time seeing it, which was surprising). It's pretty sad how good it is, dispel magic owns, 30% less cooldown on everything including blink/teleport/runes is ridiculously good, and 1 talent for 20% more damage is absurd. Part of the improvement is probably better/more careful play, as well as using non-lightning utility spells like flameshock and freeze, but now I have to wonder if I'll be able to do a mage without getting the Meta tree at 10. Yeah my archmage build is pretty similar. IMHO the beam builds don't look so good. I mean, yeah, you'll own most early stuff in the Tier1 (and maybe even the Tier2) dungeons pretty quick, but the main problem in playing roguelikes isn't killing the enemies, its not dying to them. Considernig that the way spike-damage and disables can ruin your day in a heartbeat in this game, I think that the better approach is to use your vast array of disables to tactically take out the few dangerous enemies (disablers + archers mostly) from play while the rest helplessly flail against your epic defenses while being whittled down under heavy using AoE DoTs. It takes awhile to get this rolling, but you could cakewalk up to lvl 18 just with displacement shield + lvl 1 lightning bolt + lvl 3 manathrust anyways. So, IMHO, as far as offensive spells go, Ice-Storm = awesome, Freeze = awesome, Tidal Wave = awesome, flameshock = pretty good, Shock = awesome, Nova = awesomer still. And of course, Displacement Shield is your main boss killer, besides from your other disables. Just keep disabling and let that AoE DoT damage pile up while your foes sit there helpless. Flameshock and Nova, while being good on their own, unfortunately doesn't mesh well with Ice Storm, since frozen enemies are immune from new status effects (doesn't remove old ones) while they remain frozen. So, I find that I really only have time against anything dangerous to cast only one or the other before popping Ice Storm, and Novacaine just deals far more damage. Flame Shock is pretty good for when Ice Storm runs out, but eventually, with Quicken Spells, you'll be able to keep Ice Storm up all the time anyways. One change from that guy I posted earlier would be to not max Flame Shock. Grab it early, (maybe in the late teens), take it out when Novacaine becomes available (I shuffle around my points quite a bit, heh), but then don't bother with it after that. Instead, get chain lightning as your additional late-game damage spell. While I was still able to defeat crowds pretty quickly near the end there, I really wish I had even more damage. The Meta school is a big part of what makes the build work; you absolutely need Spellcraft Maxed or you're gonna own yourself the very first instant you try to cast Novacaine in a big crowd. Also, dispell magic is awesome for owning bosses with annoying sustains (especially Shield Wall or anything else that improves stun resist); useless on crowds though, which is annoying when every other loving orc in the prides is nearly immune to hurricane because you can't get it to proc through their stun resist and saves. (I guess this is why the Wildfire tree is more popular since it doesn't have this weakness.) 30% less cooldown is good too, although I didnt really have the mana to keep it up until the late clvl 30s / early 40s. But, you can get by with just a pair or two of spellbinding boots until then anyways. Oh yeah, on that note, a couple more IMHO on archmagi equipment: on your feet, spellbinding boots. Always. Nothing else is even fractionally as good. Resets your main disable cooldowns and resets your shield cooldowns. Lets you tank ridiculous amounts of damage Keep spares in your inventory so you can switch them out in big battles. In your hands, get a starfall staff early (who could say no to an extra AoE disable?), polar if possible, and upgrade to a staff of warding as soon as you can find one. Rarely, you can find one in the Angolwen shop right before Dreadfell (and commonly after it), and sometimes the Merchant will have one too. This staff is crazy good; gives you an extra free lvl 5 Displacement Shield (which costs like 90 mana otherwise), lots of extra Defense (the one I had there was +15 and wasn't even of the highest material quality), and 30%-60% stun resist, depending on material. This staff makes a ridiculous difference to your tanking ability. The way that disable immunities (Stun/Confuse) work in Tome4, you either need to have really high immunity or otherwise you shouldn't bother. If you only have 10% resistance, for example, then 9/10 situations where stunning will happen will play out as if you didnt have it at all, which means you need to play as if you don't have it at all. On the other hand, getting close to 100% while having some sort of backup instant contingency (i.e. a mental/physical infusion), effectively let you ignore the status effect all together. So, you can stay in battle longer, plan further ahead without worry, take calculated risks without catastrophic failure, etc. With the huge amount of stun resist from the staff of warding, you can close that gap to 100% with just a couple other items, one (or both) of which can be a quartz ring. Plus, it frees up your body armor slot for that awesome mummy costume from the ancient elven ruins, which gives 4000% confusion immunity, tons of resists, that darkness invocation, and all those other awesome effects, if you're so lucky to find it. In your offhand keep a staff of channeling, which is like spellbinding boots except it works at a higher power level. Other items to keep your eyeballs peeled for: hats of earthrunes (for Crawl players, this invokes Tomb of Dorokhloe for free, which, while temporary, effectively becomes "cast for full regeneration" when combined with all your cooldown resets and regen crap) for panic-switches, hats of sanctity (invokes an AoE that prevents silence on you while forcing it on enemies that are in the AoE), Vaugh's Redemption, and anything that increases Mana. Ironically, Archmages are desperate for Mana since they have so many sustains up: I get Arcane Power very early, (which isn't worth maxing, IMHO), the defensive sustains (stone skin and blur sight) after that, feather wind somewhere around the T2 dungeons, Spellcrafting, Hurricane, and Tempest after that, and Quicken Spells at the very end. I dont understand how people can afford Probability Travel or Essence of Speed considering how expensive they are. And of course, last note on equipment - save every piece of +Str, +Con, and +Mag equipment that you can early on for level-up switches so you can put everything you have into willpower (after you grab that first point in Ice Storm) without wasting precious stat points. I guess the downside to this style of play is that, being more tactical, it is slower. Being that Tome4 is such a really ridiculously long slog - IMHO putting even ADOM, which has some really repetive grindy parts, to shame - a faster-paced style might end up being more successful just because it will keep your focus better in the long run. Which, you know, is really disappointing, because I think that Tome4's greatest strength, besides its interface, is that combat is so different from other roguelikes yet is so tactically interesting and varied. But, its just like, buried under so much loving fat that you can't even find the meat. And I know there's the ID and the Arena, but the game isn't balanced for those modes. It's balanced for the main quest. And I want to eat that meat goddamit! quote:So far my one primary complaint is that a lot of the game feels really long and drawn-out and grindy, which is partly self-inflicted perhaps (the MUST DO EVERYTHING EVERY TIME mentality) but at least adventure mode prevents you losing all that work the second you get to something unfamiliar and die to a threat you've never seen before - I don't think I'll ever care to play this on Roguelike setting. Well, IMHO part of the "MUST DO EVERYTHING" mentality is that you're really hurting yourself if you don't, you know, do everything. You want the fortress for the stash, you want to do the halfling ruins for the bonus the Yeek gives you, you want to do the elven ruins for the mummy costume, you want to do sandworm cave because the heart is a free extra level-up, the Ruined dungeon for the easy loot and alchemist quest items, the Arena for Bloodcaller, the Trapped Merchant for the shop, etc, all the escort quest areas for the amazing escort quest rewards, etc. And, you know, at the very least, every boss will drop ya some artifact and an experience level. The bosses are the most fun (besides random greater vaults and escort quests) anyways. So, even though some of these areas can be tedious (especially the sandworm cave, WHAT the gently caress were they thinking when they designed this?), if an area is gonna help you beat a game you're gonna end up investing 30 hours (or more) on a single try, it makes sense to do it if you're interested in beating the game. Perhaps making the availability of these zones limited, or perhaps making some mutually exclusive with each other, would help?

You got both the crazy AOEs, the disables, and big-damage nukes all in one tree.

Indecisive posted:While you're still in the intro area your phase door is boosted to always be controllable so make sure you abuse the poo poo out of that to get away from enemy swarms. Also keep in mind that the projectiles that the non-snakes shoot at you are dodgeable if you take a step sideways (or blink away), its completely possible to beat the entire intro without getting hit once. This is good training for the regular game because dodging projectiles and avoiding getting hit in general is vital to survive as an archmage. As for freeze, get a low-cooldown wild infusion that removes physical debuffs and hang on for dear life, that thing will save you a million times since it's unlikely you'll ever get stun immunity. A combo physical/mental remover is good too if you can find one, because confusion becomes as big an issue as freezing at times. Another important thing to remember is that your Phase Door has a cooldown of only like 2 turns in the starting area and I think costs only 1 mana. So, use it a lot. The other thing that might help is to realize that the orb attack that those loro-whatever things cast at you will always land at wherever you were standing when it was cast, meaning that they're actually pretty easy to dodge just by moving around tactically. As for skills and stats, I put all my stat points for lvl 2 and 3 into Willpower, get 1 point in Phase Door, 1 in Heal, 2 in Flame, 2 in Lit. I then take out my points in flame and lit at every level, and leave them out once I beat the boss. (I'll get another point in lit later but I'd rather have manathrust at lvl 3 then lvl 2 for the caverns). The other thing I suggest is to not turn on arcane power, as it won't for the most part help you kill anything in the starting area, and the extra mana really helps a lot if you find that every enemy on the floor is attacking you at once. That starting area really is a huge pain in the rear end until you get the hang of it though. (then again, its still a big pain in the rear end even after you get the hang of it but at least you won't be dying in it anymore, lol) German Joey fucked around with this message at Jan 20, 2012 around 22:58 |

Thanks to tiger_eye (who is someone here) and edge (who I think is oneliquidninja?), my problem is solved! The solution, for posterity, is to open the Lua console, type "=game.state:isAdvanced()", then "=game.state:hasGoneEast()" (hope I'm remembering that second one correctly)
