We can control everything related to TG so there is no margin of anyone stealing it from u.

okay ty

So, my friend has a sorc, he's following the Crystal Maiden miniguide (basically fire sorc with a bit of cold). He's at the point where he has to change every equipment for shrine crafted items. Does he use sacred bases? Because he had to respec and spend most of his points on strength to use the puniest of sacred bases.

And should he use magical crafts like the guide says? He would get a lot of minion beefiness but wouldn't a more useful craft for his damage work better?

Only by looking at the added levels at the bottom of the item, dividing by 4 (for number of MO's used) and then looking at the stats.

And a question about The Sin War realm: can I create another account solely for the purpose of mule characters and then multilog to mule my items?

Yes, only ones are on store or dropped.

About the muling, I would say there's no problem to have 2 accounts, 1 for muling 1 for your actual game. As long as you are using them in the same game for ONLY muling, but dont quote me on this.

My chest piece has insane amounts of stats :/ Not sure how to dig through it to find out what I MOrb'd when I first made it D: Using too many MOrbs still raises the level right? Or was that changed?

Do potion buffs stack or do they overwrite?

Thats the thing, this is my first char on this patch. Haven't done the minigame on this one before.

Only Sacred Rare items work for Shrinecrafting.

Since this is a question about one of Chuck's guides, you'll probably get a faster response by posting it in his Miniguide Compilation thread. He's pretty good about answering questions related to his guides.

The duration stacks, but not the effectiveness.

Exception: when you're in town the duration is reset due to lame finishing of Ubers (people used to drink a whole belt of potions and then enter an uber. This is now prevented)
