	>Yes. That's actually the way it has to be done. You shouldn't bond to a new weapon before breaking the bond with the old one, or the old one becomes pretty useless. Essentially, you can only break your most recent bond. The steps would be: break current bond, bond with old weapon, break bond on old weapon, rebond with new weapon. - M		>Yes.
