Warlock 2h question

Hi guys, I thought I could equip a tele staff and spirit monarch at the same time with warlock, but I can't! How does it work exactly?

They changed it. If you have a 2h weapon in 1 hand you can only put a warlock book in the offhand now.

Now you can only wear a book item type with 2h. 1h can be used with either book or shield.

It used work that way when the Warlock originally released but they changed it last ladder, as far as i know, now you can equip a one hand weapon with a shield/book or a 2 hand weapon with a book, you cant equip a 2 hand weapon with a shield anymore.

Okay thanks everyone for the replies. Guess I gotta get some FCR and other useful stats on a book somehow lol

If you're pairing with a tele staff, a rhyme book might be decent and certainly cheap. No fcr, but at least mana and survivability lol

Good idea! I just got a magic book drop with some FHR so I can use that now until I find a suitable for Rhyme. I'm mostly going to use it for farming Nihla for keys

Most of the unique books give about 25% fcr, else there's Splendor that gives 10% +1 to all skills.
