Making useless skills useful.

But the difference between what I want and what AoS is is the emphasis is placed on players skills still, rather than items. It's not items that add these advantages, it's the skills you actually have to use in your template.

The game becoming item based is what ruined AoS.

Trust me, I am probably one of the most vehemently against AoS here, since it pretty much f-ed my favourite game up.
