"Enchant Weapon - Avalanche now enchants a weapon to "often deal 463 to 537 Bature damage".
Just to point that out.

[loop not defined]

You're having way too much fun with these Codenames.

[Chaosenrgy]

I think it may be time to re-roll an alchemist. That mount is just almost too epic and unique to carry another player on your back!

[Soyuz]

Yay at the fire mage changes!

Yay new build, also "often deal 463 to 537 Bature damage".

Silly bouby. Bature isnt a word!

Hmmm the Vial DOES NOT require Alchemy to be used.

Looks like a lot of people will level Alchemy, make the Vial, and then switch to another profession. Fine with me I guess.
