So, I'm using a helopolis amazon helm and it gives +12 to Guard Tower. Can anyone explain why it won't let me cast the spell? Someone told me it required bear stance to use but I'm curious as to why an amazon helm would even give that skill if amazons can't use.

It's a ranged cast. Bear stance will block you from using it. Does it require a certain weapon type? Do you have enough mana?

Are you playing a pounce zon? Points in Lioness lock out ranged skills.

mahitovec : lol, i know that was stupid. i was sleepy when i replied.

i had a hard time earlier making a decision between judge and hail rws for my batsin (weapon dmg vs procs) and suggestions for MO's? is spamming crushing blow and deadly strike good enough to improve her nova dmg output?

I've been farming some of the summoned bosses for trophies and am starting to wonder....
Does the 2% trophy chance = each kill has a 2% chance or is the drop decided upon game creation (no drop on first kill = all the rest will be no drop in that game)?

I just started playing MXL and I've been having a great time but I'm quite confused about uptiering uniques. When you uptier a unique is the unique also supposed to be rerolled? I just uptiered my Wisdom's Wrap armor which caused the requirements to increase but all of the stats remained the same. Because of this the stats actually fall outside of the stat ranges found in the documentation which doesn't seem correct. Is this a bug I've run into or am I just misunderstanding the uptiering process?

EDIT: found the answer to my question in the documentation, I wasn't adding a rune to the recipe.

Is punisher from the sol bow runeword a weapon damage type? Some reason my friend is using an Sacred RW reflex bow instead of an su bow I wanted to give him, even thought the runeword looks weak to me.

someone posted this old build like 2 weeks ago which sounds like what you're friend might be planning on with that sol rw bow.
