<div>Simple question.</div><div> </div><div>If you go down the agility line, does equipping a 2-hander disable the abilities that require an empty secondary?</div><div>Just wondering how they've implemented it.</div><div>In theory it probably should disable it. But depending on how they've coded it, 2-handers will be either quite desirable or quite useless.</div><div>My reason for asking is partly to do with the choice of Peacock Club quest rewards.</div><div>If 2-handers are not compatible with Agi AAs, then you're stuck with either prismatic 1.0, or a silly monk dual wield weapon.</div>

You can't use a 2h weapon on the Agi line.</p>

<div></div><p>Symbols are the jeweler made tradeskill items I think. Examples are vanadium symbol, tin symbol, etc. They look like an anhk, I believe. It's been a long time since I've used one, since the orbs in T6 were better. I don't know if other symbols work or if it's just tradeskill type ones.</p><p>I haven't checked out the T7 ones yet.</p><p>Zeb</p><p> </p>

<div></div>I assumed that it was anything that looked like tartons wheel. But have not tested it.

The Staff of Second Life turns into the Wand of Second Life if you right-click and examine it. It goes from 40 INT, 130 power, 5 subjugation to 20 INT, 80 power, 5 disruption with the same regen and proc (plus other stats that are secondary). I love the look of the staff and used it until I had two symbols with at least 20 INT and 50 power each.

Correct (to both). You may also need to unequip it before changing forms, I'm not sure, I just do it that way myself. One thing to be careful of, switching it back and forth twice removes the don't-sell-to-vendor tag on one or both versions... so don't do that. <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> But yeah, all around fantastic weapon, I love the proc.
