I found several useless and less useful skills in DD during my journey as a warrior:

- Evade Trap: I didn't see THAT many traps to waste skill point on those. And if I just stock potions, I can drink a potion after a trap. Plus the spider traps can be evaded, scorpions can be killed.
- Augment Damage: It might be of use earlier, but once you fight veteran orcs, 10 or 20 damage won't help you much, better use weapon masteries.
- Survivor's Instinct: It's simply too slow. Better drink a potion.
- Necroshift: When I tried that skill, I was surprised: I expected being able to posess an enemy and have his special abilities and spells but no, I just entered the enemy and everyone arround me was friendly. Better use a spider statue, no?
- Identify Monster: After I kill a monster I can see the information about him in my journal.

This poll has two reasons:
- To help newbies build a better character by avoiding less useful skills
- To point out the problems so that if Larian sees this topic they know what didn't work (even if RR will have another skill system).
