And we seen the hard coding of 7 skills.
So with the limited skills, no prereqs, and no trees, why are there still (?) level requirements on skills?
You have skill tiers, but essentially, all that means (in a practical sense) is that every 5 levels, you get an extra skill slot upwards to 7.
Only Tier 7 gives the impression of being more powerful than the rest, but with the current layout, you can get or respec to have ALL Tier 7 skills which defeats the concept.
Skill's own power is derived a lot through gear as far as I know. It isn't just fixed numbers that can't change.
With all the changes, the level restriction seems to be the only legacy concept that has lingered. But should it? Should it go away too?
