Thanx Patrick. I might just look around and see what offers people will
throw my way for my Windforce. As for the Mal rune i think i'll just hang
onto it for a while. I'm not overly stressed about trading off the Windforce
because i look to have equipment that i can use on a variety of characters
rather than just 1. I mean like for instance if i had Delerium, it would
move character to character. I like to make things that can benefit me alot
rather than limited i guess. Maybe i'm just strange.
I might make some games like Windforce 4 rune offer ...or something like
that....who know what i'll get.
