[QUOTE="Lanliss, post: 7054375, member: 6801219"] I have not done all of my reading yet, so I am not sure on most things.I just wanted to get this out now, before I forgot my idea for the Devotion system, which is the main thing that turned me off of Grim Dawn. Will update more once I have done my homework. Currently 1) I have never seen, nor thought about, a stance mechanic, so I would not know what it is like, or what it might help with. Could you elaborate on what abilities you think would benefit from the system? 2) Yes, it will be a simple matter of giving an ability usable "x times/short rest", which drops a totem, probably anchored like an immovable rod. 3) No idea what talent points are, nor what abilities they modify. Will get back to this after I have done my reading. 4) Yes, though I will want to make sure that the base class does not have much health itself, since my friend told me that he saw a Pet Army build, with something like 9 pets but a super squishy character, since they had put all of their points and items towards getting more pets. Basically destroyed action economy, but that ends as soon as something survives their turn and attacks them. [/QUOTE]
