Get the Dark Tome from the summoner in act 2 desturction, cube it on your class charm to get Dark Portal oskill. Use Dark Portal after killing ancients on Terror.

Just tried it out with an early Bathos shield from gift box - it only hits once with weapon damage - when the original knive hits the target..

1. is there a reliable way to get balefire midgame?
--> not talking about shrine crafting, thats too late

2. has balefire/unholy melee changed alot in the last year?
--> id check the old patches but i get 404 error trying to look at 1.2, 1.1 ....

the clouds can stack for multihit though

I'm new to the game and about to try level challenge 1. One thing I can't figure out from the docs is, it looks like there are three separate charms. Do I need to pick the one I want in advance and only cube that one, or can I make all three by running it three times?

one charm.

Elemental Prism

drops at the entrance from the pirate. Each of the three priestesses after will drop their own sunstone that you cube onto the prism to upgrade it.

Thanks, Aero. Next question:

I accidentally upgrade some tiered uniques using the basic upgrade recipe (without the rune). Now I'm confused about how the tiers really work. The base items and the uniques each have a separate tier that is not necessarily related, right? So, if I upgrade a unique with the recipe that has a rune, does it upgrade the tier for both or just the unique? If it doesn't do both, should I generally do both recipes for each unique? Which tier does the number in the item name refer to?

Is 'Ferocity' skill only active in trap rat form?

i.e. if I'm on a barb and have an item that grants 'Ferocity' will it grant the attack speed/damage bonuses on the barb?

Can a mob be affected by two instances of poison damage simultaneously? For instance if I have poison damage on my weapon, hit the mob, and I also have a spell that does poison damage - would the mob take 100% of the poison damage from both sources?
