I tend to succumb to the temptation and try to get both books online at the expense of defenses and melee. Is there ever a situation when branching into the other book is a good idea?

MainiacJoe wrote:The impetus for the OP was a HuVM (since deceased to a ghost) that found Callings. Callings is a strong book, but I'd already invested in Poison enough to get OTR at 12% fail and most of the summons in that book lack rPois (spire, and maybe a few imp types). So it felt like it would be completely starting over on D:4, and rejected that. If I'd found Callings on a FE or an AE or IE, well then great! Is that the correct analysis?
