Talents

I may get hit for suggesting this. I like the way Warriors play with Stunning Blows and such and more, and the talent trees are nice, but I was wondering if you could do something a bit like World of Warcraft, making the talents more modify your skills while either giving abilities like Stunning Blows as innate class abilities learned at certain levels, or talents you have to go through a tree for.

This is a bit unrelated, but I really, really, really, really, really hate Green Mass Worms on the first two floors of Trollshaws. As if you don't get to them IMMEDIATELY then your game is over as they hit incredibly hard and swarm you.

Well doing things this way makes for more interresting choices IMO, I played a lot of WoW and in the end alll the talent builds are the same or nearly I try to not have this effect here, it's hard but I'll try :)

Worm masses can indeed be difficult to handle out in the open, and if you don't think you can get to them before they start multiplying you may want to retreat to a position where you will only be facing one at a time. This strategy has worked for me. :)

Worm masses will eventually run out of stamina and stop reproducing, so if you can engage them one at a time, in a situation where they cannot threaten you greatly, you should be able to take them all out eventually without too much trouble. But early on, if you allow 3 or more to flank you, you are in for a VERY rough ride.

I like worms... So unexpected and really nasty if you are not careful!

I don't necessarily mean exactly the same way, but adding in some ones that modify your other abilities rather then just give buffs and stuff would be cool.

For example, Juggernaut in WoW allows you to use Charge anytime (and not just in combat) at the expense of longer cooldown.

Well there is a current example of that already, in the rogue hide in plain sight talent which allows you to ignore monster sight radius on a cooldown
