One thing we definatly need :
The ability to hold our mouse over an enchantment and see how much time is left on it. Hell, even having a number under or on top of each one to reference them would be great. So much of this game is timing your skills, it would be nice to have a way to tell how much time is left on one you already have active.

It would be nice to have a little number on the icon (like you have in your inventory slots) on active echantments, hexes, etc. to let you know how long is left on it in seconds.

There might be a hit on processing though in order to make it work, both in the visuals and in network traffic to ensure the numbers match up reasonably.

But I'd like to see this.

I agree that having a timer on the enhancments or hexes would be great. So many times have i sat there wondering when a backfire hex would go away or whether it was truly worth removing a hex or waiting for it to expire. It would definatly help to have a timer on skills, and i would like to see one but it also adds a degree of difficulty guessing on how long a hex would last.

Although i would Love this... i have to disagree.

Not because it would suck, but too many people would be Perfect at casting enchantments and hexes, and that's a part of the "Skill" That is required to be good at playing.

It is something i've grow quite fond of, and enchantments flash when they're about to go off... not much time, but enough to help know when its needed.
