Valla talent rework

A talent rework by Oxygen

Design goals

- Push Valla towards single-target or area-of-effect damage dealer archetypes instead of ability-specific archetypes, i.e. not "hungering arrow build" or "multishot build" in order to create a more organic experience. 

- Create fun talents that actively impact the way you play.

- Limit the number of talents per talent tier to 2, as to focus on creating a few quality talents as opposed to a large quantity of generic ones.

- Base abilities, trait, and heroic abilities are unchanged. My goal is never to rape the Hero itself.

Design issues

- Do the new talents -really- fulfill the intended single-target / aoe archetype designs?

- Where should every talent fit, i.e. what justifies talent X being on tier 3, as opposed to tier 5? How do we objectively quantify the relative power of such intricate talents?

Upcoming changes


- Newer, more fleshed out ideas

- Talent tier position shuffles

Combat Trait

Tier 1 - Eternal Hunger
Hungering Arrow can now seek up to 12 different targets for full damage, but may no longer hit the same enemy twice.

Unchanged.
