Can you change a Monster Enhancer applied to a Mook?

[Lolly]

In this post MunchkinMan says that you can discard an Enhancer card that was played on a Mook and play a new one. Now this looks really strange to me, because the rules state that "the Enhancer card stays with the Mook as long as he lives".

Can you please confirm that this is the official interpretation of the rule?

[MunchkinMan]

Can you explain to me why you think I would post something like that and not use the official interpretation of the rules?

But, yes, that's the official interpretation that was given to me back when I first playtested Munchkin Fu. The language about the Enhancer staying with the Mook means that it is not like the Monk's ability, which allows for one Monster Enhancer to be played on a Monk during combat for a bonus that last as long as that combat.

basicaly the text "the Enhancer card stays with the Mook as long as he lives" means, you may discard the enchanter only by killing (discarding) a Mook...
ok, you tell us, one may discard an Enchanter to place another Enchanter and this one is official.
may one play a -5 or +5 Enchanter, while a Mook has already +10 to lower Mook's bonus?
may the owner of the Mook discard a -5 Enchanter without puting another Enchanter?
and by the way, may one use a -5 Enchanter on a Mook?

I have one of my own that is relevant to this topic; Could an enhancer enhancer be played on an enhancer that's already on a mook to increase it further?

Read the Blender rules for an answer to that question. They are, shall we say, rather specific on the use of Enhancer Enhancers.

Regardless of that, a Mook can (normally) be enhanced by only one card at a time, so adding and Enhancer Enhancer breaks that rule, so we didn't have a serious need for the extra information given to us by Munchkin Blender, but it's there anyway.

Only the Mook's owner has the right to remove an Enhancer to play a new one. You may, however, play a Monster Enhancer on someone else's Mook if it is "empty."

excuse me, may i check again, is this correct?
may one play a -5 or +5 Enchanter, while a Mook has already +10 to lower Mook's bonus? - Only the Mook's owner, for any reason
may the owner of the Mook discard a -5 Enchanter without puting another Enchanter? - No
and by the way, may one use a -5 Enchanter on a Mook? - Yes, if it has no other enchancers (or you are the Mook's owner)

if the second question is No, can he discard it to power some ability?
if it's Yes, there is really no point to put it there anyway... it will be discarded at once.

I think, it is a subject for errata, because it is not obvious after reading the card...
