Default Ancestor's Visage...

Why???? Why would they make a copy of Sympathetic Visage? I think it's an incredible waste of a skill to make a copy of SV. There's no point to using them together, unlike skills such as Arcane Thievery and Arcane Larceny. I really fail to see the point here. I've never even used SV and neither have I seen anyone else use it.

they made copis of skills probrally to mak up for skill recharges (and i've seen SV used quite often in PvP). Also i believe that arcane larceny and arcane theivery steal different skills (unlike echo'd archane theivery), so that disables 2 enemy skills isntead of just 1

no, arcane larency will have the same chance of stealing the same skills as arcane thievery, so it IS like echoing thievery,.

Ancestors visage? I have no idea why that got duplicated

Well if you want SV up constantly then it's now possible, since even with a 20% enchant mod & 16 illusion, SV goes down for 5 seconds. It does seem a rather pointless waste to use two skilll slots though.

BTW, SV is useful in itself - part of the core UW 55hp mes build, useful for tanking. Sometimes used in PvP for warrior mes-hate too.

I think the only reason is to give players who only bought Factions some of the more vital skills from Prophecies.

Either way its completely pointless and utterly stupid...

Me neither, i can't see why some skills are considered "Core" (thus existing on both campaigns) and others as "campaign specific" but cloned !!!
There must be a subtlety hidden in...
