Hmmmm do any of you know if "Area Effect Attack" from Warmonger helm would make fortress doe AOE dmg...? Or, specifically, what would it do xD That seems worth some TG if it does aoe all those arrows!!!

Yeh I'm sure it is, too, unless you have a lot of procs and want the attack speed.... but I forgo stances altogether and just keep thunderslam on left click and fortress on right.

So how does the lazydin stack up to end game zones and bosses? (lvl 120+) I'd rly like to try one, but I'm worried about putting all into energy for dmg (thus losing life pool) and still not having enough dmg to bosskill. Please assuage my worries if at all possible xD
