I noticed that depending on group composition, I would select a much different skill set. In my case, I am an Elementalist/Monk. If I was to adventure without companions, it would make no sense to hold onto skills like resurrection and the various non-self healing skills.

If I could keep selection sets on skills and name them. Kind of like combo's of skills. All I would have to do is click on a drop down list and have my preselected and laid out skill sets.

Currently as it is. I have to hit K (which is fine) then select a skill by attribute (other sorting selections are useless somewhat). Then manually pull and drop skills trying to remember which made the best combinations. Also it would be great to post your combo sets online with a name.

As a side note. It would be real nice to see some combo skills compliment each other like in magic. I'm not saying they are out there but as I see it combo skills are hard to come by. (ex. Enchantments that pull life from Target and give it to caster used in combination with say a spell that transfers health into mana then used to cast a damaging spell.)

Yah, I suggested this a while ago (wasn't explained as well but same basic principle) and a lot of people agreed but it was just "I agree" things and the thread died quickly.

But indeed, we need this.

Fixed my thread title spelling ... GG

Yep, very good idea. It's simple, it makes everyones gameplay better/easier (however you want to look at it). Everyone benefits equally.

It's an okay idea once you've got everything fixed but I'm still experimenting so it wouldn't be as useful to me now.

this suggestion is officially supported by Dr Slugfly on behalf of gastropods everywhere!

You could whip up a selection of skill sets with such names as 'Necro's Suck and Blow' where you pull life from a target and throw damage at another. Or a Warrior's skillset called 'Blade Storm' where all skills are speed based.

It would be fun if some popular skill sets could be uploaded or available when you have all the skills of a certain set. You select the drop down and all of a sudden you have a 'named' selection set from the server.

"Hmmm!?, I'll give it a whirl"

Again ... just like in Magic the Gathering with IT's named decks.
