You are using melee devotion, read the skill description

I'm sorry, but there is even "Transcendence" in UHM skill tree that buff servant, and Grim Presence allows Melee/Summoning/Buff/Debuff skill. Also the SOV skill doesn't say anything about Melee Devotion.

Melee Devotion is in the mastery tree and has a similar line to the blue one on Grim Presence but does not allow summoning skills.

There's a ssu zon helm called the deviant crown that gives a bunch of bonuses for not using any of the devotion skills. In the last build of median this meant that you could only use up to tier 3 talents from all the talent trees but with the new patch zons get locked to a specialization upon picking up the first talent rather than the tier 4 talent the way it used to be. Anyway it feels like the talent choices are extremely limited by using this helm. Was this taken into account? Feels like an oversight to me.

its a designed rogue helm imo, not zon helm

Some time ago I asked how this oil of luck works and I got a partial answer. Well, the item falling out of the mob has a saved chance whether the lucky / lottery bonus will be or not. And here my friend could be right. Tested on around 20 Angel of Death Amulet. Some of them got a bonus for the first time, and the rest of them could sit for an hour and nothing.

In the case of gem making, it is more complicated. 1% / x to all attributes on the gem. Here, each attribute is considered separately. Separately Sstrenght, Dexterity ... Tested on dozens of gems.

If the item has the bonus added, you get it the first time you use the oil. Since the item is written in the code that the bonus will be granted and you get it the first time you use the oil, why are there two types, 20% and 40%?

How much damage does Divine Apparition deal with Frostbite and Grim Presence?

The magic damage increase does not offset losing a stance IMO. Also, the EQ and Thunder Slam magic damage doesn't apply anymore right? Thought those got removed from the skills this patch.
