So far the change to limit you to only X skills per ability rank has mostly seemed irrelevant: the limiting factor to how many skills you can use is actually the required level of the skill. Maybe it痴 a factor later on once you have enough levels, but right now, it痴 pretty difficult to have enough skills at one time that you can hit your cap.
By the time I can get those skills, my ability points should be high enough from the levels I've gained.
At early levels, I'm not "playing with a deck of skills" and swapping some in and out, I'm getting literally the only skills my level allows me to get. I don't have a choice what skill to prioritize getting. There simply aren't enough skills for me to build a deck.
But the skill points still need some improvement. A ranger, roger, or warrior spends less skill points to get class bonuses than a mage.
I don't think that is correct. Yes, they only have one tree for their skillbooks, but they do have other abilities to fit their class: weapons specializations, crafting, repair, lockpicking, loremaster, bodybuilding, armour specialization, sneaking - it's not like Warriors, Rangers, and Rogues have no places competing for their ability points.
