1.6.2 misc

This at least tames the auto_classes algorithm's intense hunger for broad talent spreads.

Fixes to block callback and archery AI

callbackOnBlock now passes in the blocked parameter, fixes a bug with Annihilator's shield capacitor.
The addition to shoot is so that the mecha knows it can shoot through the player and turrets, makes it a bit less dumb.
Also added archery_pass_friendly to the thoughtform archer so it's less useless.

I really want to know how many melee killed themselves flurrying into this on an NPC.

There are various reports of this being a problematic scaler in 1.6.  I don't see how, beyond it being an insane scaler in general, but its possible a change has been overlooked and its probably better to disable it for now.

One thing that might have changed is the new AI and/or various things not breaking stealth anymore might've made hard hitting abilities actually use the bonus more often.  Dunno.

NPCs with Shadowstrike base get a small crit mult bonus instead.  The rat lobby is strong, and they get to keep the actual talent.  #squeak

Meant to do this forever ago.  Catalepsy can stay as the uncapped death trap, this can stay supplemental :p.

Surge is just too bursty to put on NPCs that synergize well with it

Reduce the scaling of the Archmage resist pen scalers to approach 60% instead of 100% (player TLs are the same)

These have been crazy for way too long and are more relevant now that fixedbosses have more focused talent choices.

Dispel really needs a complete overhaul someday.  But this is fine for today.

THE RIGHT LINE IS LIKE RIGHT ABOVE THIS AHHH

In addition to already having a lot of melee hate the Blighted Summoning buff made the summons very tanky potentially prolonging the fight even more.  Since Blighted Summoning is cool and Spine isn't, it gets to stay.

More focused elements and less sustain spam.

Add a banned_talents field to fixedboss classes that allows you to prevent them from spending points on them (this is not the same as no_npc_use)

Add a max_talent_types property to fixedboss classes that allows you to limit how many categories they unlock, defaulted to 2

Being Frozen will not prevent the application of Wet and Frozen Feet debuffs
If the caster is Frozen when casting Shatter, the ice block is instantly destroyed

Gloves and Gauntlets of tier3 and tier5 will now start dropping in tier2 and tier4 respectively, mainly to help Brawlers get better weapons in a timely fashion

The way themes work make it hard for these to not be obnoxiously common, notably this tends to make Telepathy:  All and the other Telepathies show up at once.  I don't have an immediate elegant solution for this so just disabling for now.

Its really hard to itemize specifically for these stats which is a problem when they're involved in so many binary checks.

mini art tweaks 2

- Replace auger on Pick of Dwarven Emperors with earthquake

Putting auger on pick is an old change I made to pick way back that I heavily disagree with nowadays.

I want to discourage dig cheesing through challenges as much as possible personally, new Auger also would probably always occupy the tool slot with its % phys increase for a lot of characters even if not used to dig. 

Swapped to earthquake to keep it on theme a little more, and made it arcane powered since these are both spells even if item actives, also gave a very small boost to stats to round them up.

With the high peak revert it's probably fine for this to go.

Not sure what this number should be, but not the same as the chance of a 1H mace dropping.

Infinitely hiding in walls is an excellent gameplay feature and this commit is really bad.

Its just too hard to have Woes and Surge not both have a physical proc since its the most widely used DT, and Woes is short on DTs as is.

Its pretty niche atm for how often it drops

I really want this to serve as a more consistent counter to manaburn, and it drops a lot less now so the quality of manasurges should be high.

The eternal war on debuff spam continues.
