Latest patch notes for 1.9: Linky
There's a bit too much to copy-paste in here, as well as formatting issues with doing it that way.
Looks to be quite a big update, if it ever gets to us.

Combining 2-h weapons looks nice too... I take a spellbook with cast speed bonus as main weapon and spellbook with atk spd bonus as 2nd and i get both bonuses + 20% base stats of 2nd weapon + additional manastone slots. Those things can get things a bit imbalanced... i wonder how will that work with enchanting... like if i use +10 weapon as 2nd weap... oh wait now you can enchant to +15... and +15 gives +300 magic boost *20% hmm... thats only +60 magic boost... not too much but still...

I guess they just want to make something to make ppl at lvl 50 busy.

Personally, I think that combining is to level out the playing field with dual-wielders already getting all those extra manastone slots.

here a Spiritmaster with combine book :/

crazy dude im scared..
