For now we have no choice and can only have Dome of Protection on our custom chars. This is super restricting imo - DoP only fits into defensive setups.
Introduce 2-3 alternatives and let players choose their starting skills, come on!
That can be anything, like I don't know mass haste for example for 2 AP 2 SP or some skill that exchanges 1 SP for 2 AP, there can be plenty of choices. Don't leave D:OS2 stale like it is now, try some ballsy things that will refresh your superb game.
