A few thoughts:With just the Lasting Frost talent (I think its safe to assume we may see feats something like this for other elements, also we have seen a +1 acid/cold dmg feat), a wizard with 20 int will do 1d8+10 damage on an opportunity attack on anyone he has hit with cold damage. 11-18 damage, from what we have seen from the way damage scales, is definitely a non-trivial amount in 4E. Would definitely make the Battle Mage a bit more threat on the battlefield in any case, as I don't imagine they can make OA's with Implements at all.Star Pact Warlocks are going to have some crazy scary (haha) fear effects. 2 Dice on saves and take the lowest roll is going to definitely prolong those negative effects. It's interesting that the Warlock as a class seems to have a lot of "debuffs". They look like they aren't going to be as intense damage-wise as the Ranger/Rogue (purely hypothetical at this point) but are shaping up to be something in-between a Striker and a Controller.A few people have mentioned hoping for Paragon Paths without class restriction, and from everything WotC has said I think your hopes will be realized. I distinctly remember hearing from a Dev that every class will have multiple options of Paragon Path. I believe they were simply previewing 1 class-specific paragon path of each class because that is the easiest thing for us to reference based on the preview information that has come before.The Paragon Paths dont necessarily add a whole ton of new crunch to your character, but I must say it seems like a well balanced amount. I'm so looking forward to playing around with this stuff!</blockquote>
