ok. it seems the expansion is focusing more on china (silly me for expecting other east-southeast asian regions to get more exposure) and egypt (what a nice surprise. egypt’s myth exposure was kinda lacking in vanilla TQ).
and we got a new mastery! Neidan - Alchemist Kungfu Master Emperor. now i can make proper severus snape build (rogue + alchemist magic!), chucking poison magic bottlenades at dunderheads while sectumsempra-ing them with flying knifes and the sectumsemprachinegun blade traps, with some out of context eastern chi magic to buff/debuff stuff. the options to buy various new potions with unique effects (other than the boring health mana potions…) further enhance the new alchemist class feel. balance might get skewed with the new mastery, but titan quest is never a competitive game, its a single player sandbox diablo.
btw, i noticed a very out of place tag for the eternal embers dlc… gore??? since when do titan quest have gore!!! there isn’t even blood spilling animations!!! let alone limb explosions!!! only gore i noticed was when we scattered all them poor skellies’ bones to various edges of TQ universe.
