We agree on thrown skills (although now I'm tempted to make a "varient" character who uses them as his/her primary weapon :-)). Sorry, natural hit point regen is slow normally and at 10% regen? Come on, that's nothing. For a high level priestess, that'll be like 10 hit points a battle. The extra damage to beasts isn't important. The only thing possibly modestly useful is the +25% attack/cast speed at 20% health. We'll see. I'm considering going undead now, though.

Well actually, regen isnt that slow... its quite fast. Especially later on.
10% regen in battle is for instance the warrior's defensive tree ultimate talent.
So a defensive troll warrior could have 20%, which is nothing to sneeze at.
I agree that for a priest its a bit less relevant, but then again, its a tradeoff, the Undead's activable resistance to CC might be better but itll entirely depend on duration and recast.
The exact specifics of Cannibalize will matter alot also. If Canni works like the first talent of the cleric's shadow tree as some suspect, itll be totally great. If it only works outside combat though, not much of a boon.
