ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

Both cursed and doomed, have lack of class trees (especially doomed) and excess of generic trees.

Also, every other class status effect immunity talents are class, not generic.

Doomed may not have a whole lot of class trees, but nearly every one they have is a viable choice to go deep on - and they can get generic-hungry if you want race-tree investment and cursed gear and antimagic (and fungus?), but if you're only going one of those (or two, but keeping it reasonably light) then, in my experience, they have plenty to go around

...also, status resistance shows up at least some in the generic tree - anorithils get theirs there (even if they don't tend to use it) and I suspect there are others as well.

Conditioning is Generic, and it's a status recovery tree shared by several classes.

So there is some precedent for putting condition stuff in Generic, at least.

I think this would be a good change. Both classes could benefit from more class talent choices, and it would make the signature cursed aura tree more viable for many builds with heavy generic commitments (like anti-magic).

Doomed may have an excess of generic trees, but cursed? Not so much.

Beyond that, they're in generic because it's actually a part of your body, not something you learn to do in a class. Rather like your racials. They make thematic sense in the generic category, because of that.

Its generic cos its something shared by all Afflicted classes.
