I wish people stopped whining about LW/GC combo. Just stop. It's a strong combination, but so is Leech/Bleed, and if it's not those, it'll be something else ad nauseum.
This is a single player game first and foremost, so you are in no danger of losing a penis contest, and can sleep well.
I couldn't agree more, if your build works then it doesn't need these combos everyone keeps yammering on and on about.
For example, I picked Lone Wolf for a mage build specifically to make use of 6 out of the 8 skills (Scoundrel and Expert Marksman were not used). Because of the way I did this build this mage whoops so much ass it's not funny. Casting Oath Of Desecration before battle and then Haste in battle makes the mage way more powerful than glass cannon and I don't suffer the AP penalty Glass Cannon gives.
BTW: Some people have reported that Leech is bugged! It's triggering the healing more times than it should. Here is a link to the topic I read that in:
