Isnt it such a neat idea though? I don't know how effective it'd be but frankly it opens the door to a host of other possibilities if one can find a way to make a skill effective using items alone and no actual skill points. Regardless its funny as hell when a Paladin is slinging fireballs. My necro gets looks sometimes (I sometimes throw on trangs belt instead of arach to remove the ravenfrost for various reasons in pvm) until people realize he's wearing some of trangs but no one expects a Paladin....

Let me know how it works Geekz if you do it because I'd like to see if it can work myself.
